Matthew 1
American Standard Version
1 [a]The book of the [b]generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
2 Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judah and his brethren; 3 and Judah begat Perez and Zerah of Tamar; and Perez begat Hezron; and Hezron begat [c]Ram; 4 and [d]Ram begat Amminadab; and Amminadab begat Nahshon; and Nahshon begat Salmon; 5 and Salmon begat Boaz of Rahab; and Boaz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse; 6 and Jesse begat David the king.
And David begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Uriah; 7 and Solomon begat Rehoboam; and Rehoboam begat Abijah; and Abijah begat [e]Asa; 8 and [f]Asa begat Jehoshaphat; and Jehoshaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Uzziah; 9 and Uzziah begat Jotham; and Jotham begat Ahaz; and Ahaz begat Hezekiah; 10 and Hezekiah begat Manasseh; and Manasseh begat [g]Amon; and [h]Amon begat Josiah; 11 and Josiah begat Jechoniah and his brethren, at the time of the [i]carrying away to Babylon.
12 And after the [j]carrying away to Babylon, Jechoniah begat [k]Shealtiel; and [l]Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel; 13 and Zerubbabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor; 14 and Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud; 15 and Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob; 16 and Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
17 So all the generations from Abraham unto David are fourteen generations; and from David unto the [m]carrying away to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the [n]carrying away to Babylon unto the Christ fourteen generations.
18 Now the [o]birth [p]of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. 19 And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily. 20 But when he thought on these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is [q]conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 And she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus; for it is he that shall save his people from their sins. 22 Now all this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
23 [r]Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son,
And they shall call his name [s]Immanuel;
which is, being interpreted, God with us. 24 And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took unto him his wife; 25 and knew her not till she had brought forth a son: and he called his name Jesus.

Matteus 1
Swedish New Living Bible (Nya Levande Bibeln)
Jesu familjeträd
1 Detta är Jesu Kristi förfäder, från kung David och Abraham:
2 Abraham, Isak, Jakob (Jakob var far till Judas och hans bröder),
3 Judas, Peres och Sera (deras mor hette Tamar), Hesron,
4 Ram, Amminadav, Nahshon,
5 Salma, Boas (hans mor hette Rahav), Oved (hans mor hette Rut), Ishai
6 Kung David, Salomo (hans mor var Urias hustru),
7 Rehabeam, Avia, Asa,
8 Josafat, Joram, Ussia,
9 Jotam, Ahas, Hiskia,
10 Manasse, Amon, Josia,
11 Jojakin och hans bröder (födda vid tidpunkten för fångenskapen i Babylon)
12 Och efter fångenskapen: Shealtiel, Serubbabel,
13 Avihud, Eljakim, Asor,
14 Sadok, Akim, Elihud,
15 Elasar, Mattan, Jakob,
16 Jakob var far till Josef. (Josef var Marias man, och hon var mor till Jesus Kristus, Guds Son).
17 Detta är de fjorton generationerna från Abraham till kung David, de fjorton generationerna från kung David till fångenskapen och de fjorton generationerna från fångenskapen till Kristus.
En ängel visar sig för Josef
18 När Jesus Kristus föddes gick det till så här: Hans mor Maria var förlovad och skulle gifta sig med Josef. Men redan innan de gift sig väntade hon barn genom den helige Ande.
19 Josef, hennes blivande man, såg då ingen annan utväg än att i tysthet bryta förlovningen. Han ville leva efter Guds bud, men inte heller skämma ut Maria offentligt.
20 Medan han alltjämt grubblade över hur han skulle lösa problemet visade sig en ängel för honom i en dröm.Ängeln sa: Josef, du Davids son, tveka inte att gifta dig med Maria! Barnet i henne har nämligen blivit till genom den helige Ande.
21 Hon kommer att få en son, och du ska kalla honom Jesus (det betyder Frälsare), för han ska frälsa sitt folk från deras synder.
22 På detta sätt kommer det som Gud sagt genom profeterna att uppfyllas:
23 'Lyssna! Den unga flickan ska bli med barn och föda en son, och han ska kallas Immanuel (det betyder Gud är med oss).'
24 När Josef vaknade gjorde han som ängeln hade befallt och gifte sig med Maria,
25 men de hade inget sexuellt samliv förrän sonen hade fötts. Och Josef kallade honom Jesus.
