Matthew 1

JuliaSmith^{(i) 1} The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, son of David, son of Abraham. ² Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob: and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren; ³ And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram; ⁴ And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon; ⁵ And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Rath; and Obed begat Jesse; ⁶ And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her of Urias ⁷ And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa; ⁸ And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias; ⁹ And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz; begat Ezekias; ¹⁰ And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias; ¹¹ And Josias begat Jeehonias and his brethren upon the transferring of Babylon ¹² And after the transferring of Babylon Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel; ¹³ And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor; ¹⁴ And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim beget Elind; ¹⁵ And Elind begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob; ¹⁶ And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, being called Christ, the anointed. ¹⁷ Therefore all the generations from Abraham to David, fourteen generations; and from David to the transferring of Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the transferring of Babylon to Christ, fourteen generations. ¹⁸ And the generation of Jesus Christ was thus: for Mary his mother having been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child by the Holy Ghost. ¹⁹ And Joseph her husband being just, and not willing to expose her to disgrace, wished to let her go in secret. ²⁰ And reflecting upon these things, behold a messenger of the Lord appeared to him saying, Joseph, thou son of David, thou shouldest not fear to take to thyself Mary thy wife: for that begotten in her is of the Holy Spirit. ²¹ And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus; for he shall save his people from their sins, ²² And the whole of this has been that it might be completed having been spoken by the prophet, saying, ²³ Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which is, being interpreted, God with us. ²⁴ And Joseph having awaked from sleep, did as the messenger of the Lord commanded him: ²⁵ And he took to himself his wife, and knew her not till she brought forth her first born son: and be called his name Jesus.
