Matthew 1:8-17

  1. And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;

  2. And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;

  3. And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;

  4. And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:

  5. And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;

  6. And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;

  7. And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;

  8. And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;

  9. And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

  10. So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.
