The Genealogy of Jesus Christ
1 (A)The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, (B)the son of David, (C)the son of Abraham.
2 (D)Abraham was the father of Isaac, and (E)Isaac the father of Jacob, and (F)Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers, 3 and (G)Judah the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, and Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram,[a] 4 and Ram the father of Amminadab, and Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon, 5 and Salmon the father of Boaz by (H)Rahab, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse, 6 and (I)Jesse the father of David the king.
And (J)David was the father of Solomon by (K)the wife of Uriah, 7 and (L)Solomon the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asaph,[b] 8 and Asaph the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, (M)and Joram the father of Uzziah, 9 and Uzziah the father of Jotham, and Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah, 10 and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, and Manasseh the father of Amos,[c] and Amos the father of Josiah, 11 and (N)Josiah the father of (O)Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.
12 And after the deportation to Babylon: (P)Jechoniah was the father of (Q)Shealtiel,[d] and (R)Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel, 13 and Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, and Abiud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor, 14 and Azor the father of Zadok, and Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud, 15 and Eliud the father of Eleazar, and Eleazar the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob, 16 and Jacob the father of (S)Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called Christ.
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to (T)the Christ fourteen generations.
The Birth of Jesus Christ
18 Now the birth of (U)Jesus Christ[e] took place in this way. (V)When his mother Mary had been betrothed[f] to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child (W)from the Holy Spirit. 19 And her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling (X)to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly. 20 But as he considered these things, behold, (Y)an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She will bear a son, and (Z)you shall call his name Jesus, (AA)for he will save his people from their sins.” 22 (AB)All this took place (AC)to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet:
23 (AD)“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son,
and they shall call his name (AE)Immanuel”
(which means, God (AF)with us). 24 When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him: he took his wife, 25 but knew her not until she had given birth to a son. And (AG)he called his name Jesus.

La généalogie de Jésus(A)
1 Voici la généalogie de Jésus-Christ, de la descendance de David et d’Abraham.
2 Abraham eut pour descendant Isaac. Isaac eut pour descendant Jacob. Jacob eut pour descendant Juda et ses frères. 3 De Thamar, Juda eut pour descendant Pérets et Zérah. Pérets eut pour descendant Hetsrôn. Hetsrôn eut pour descendant Aram. 4 Aram eut pour descendant Amminadab. Amminadab eut pour descendant Nahshôn, Nahshôn eut pour descendant Salma. 5 De Rahab, Salma eut pour descendant Booz. De Ruth, Booz eut pour descendant Obed. 6 Obed eut pour descendant Isaï. Isaï eut pour descendant le roi David.
De la femme d’Urie, David eut pour descendant Salomon. 7 Salomon eut pour descendant Roboam. Roboam eut pour descendant Abiya. Abiya eut pour descendant Asa. 8 Asa eut pour descendant Josaphat. Josaphat eut pour descendant Yoram. Yoram eut pour descendant Ozias. 9 Ozias eut pour descendant Yotam. Yotam eut pour descendant Ahaz. Ahaz eut pour descendant Ezéchias. 10 Ezéchias eut pour descendant Manassé. Manassé eut pour descendant Amôn. Amôn eut pour descendant Josias. 11 A l’époque de la déportation à Babylone, Josias eut pour descendant Yekonia et ses frères.
12 Après la déportation à Babylone, Yekonia eut pour descendant Shealtiel. Shealtiel eut pour descendant Zorobabel. 13 Zorobabel eut pour descendant Abioud. Abioud eut pour descendant Eliaqim. Eliaqim eut pour descendant Azor. 14 Azor eut pour descendant Sadoq. Sadoq eut pour descendant Ahim. Ahim eut pour descendant Elioud. 15 Elioud eut pour descendant Eléazar. Eléazar eut pour descendant Matthan. Matthan eut pour descendant Jacob. 16 Jacob eut pour descendant Joseph, l’époux de Marie, de laquelle est né Jésus, appelé Christ.
17 Il y eut donc en tout quatorze générations d’Abraham à David, quatorze de David jusqu’à la déportation à Babylone, et quatorze de cette déportation jusqu’à Christ.
L’annonce de la naissance de Jésus
18 Voici dans quelles circonstances Jésus-Christ vint au monde : Marie, sa mère, était liée par fiançailles à Joseph ; or elle se trouva enceinte par l’action du Saint-Esprit, avant qu’ils aient vécu ensemble[a]. 19 Joseph, son futur mari, était un homme juste. Il ne voulait pas la livrer au déshonneur. C’est pourquoi il se proposa de rompre ses fiançailles sans en ébruiter la raison.
20 Il réfléchissait à ce projet quand un ange du Seigneur lui apparut en rêve et lui dit : Joseph, descendant de David, ne crains pas de prendre Marie pour femme, car l’enfant qu’elle porte vient de l’Esprit Saint. 21 Elle donnera naissance à un fils, tu l’appelleras Jésus. C’est lui, en effet, qui sauvera son peuple de ses péchés[b].
22 Tout cela arriva pour que s’accomplisse cette parole du Seigneur[c] transmise par le prophète :
23 Voici, la jeune fille vierge sera enceinte.
Et elle enfantera un fils[d]
que l’on appellera Emmanuel,
ce qui veut dire : Dieu avec nous[e].
24 A son réveil, Joseph fit ce que l’ange du Seigneur lui avait commandé : il prit sa fiancée pour femme. 25 Mais il n’eut pas de relations conjugales avec elle avant qu’elle ait mis au monde un fils, auquel il donna le nom de Jésus.

1 A roll of the birth of Jesus Christ, son of David, son of Abraham.
2 Abraham begat Isaac, and Isaac begat Jacob, and Jacob begat Judah and his brethren,
3 and Judah begat Pharez and Zarah of Tamar, and Pharez begat Hezron, and Hezron begat Ram,
4 and 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 the king begat Solomon, of her [who had been] Uriah's,
7 and Solomon begat Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begat Abijah, and Abijah begat Asa,
8 and 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 Amon, and Amon begat Josiah,
11 and Josiah begat Jeconiah and his brethren, at the Babylonian removal.
12 And after the Babylonian removal, Jeconiah begat Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel,
13 and Zerubbabel begat Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor,
14 and Azor begat Sadok, and Sadok 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 begotten Jesus, who is named Christ.
17 All the generations, therefore, from Abraham unto David [are] fourteen generations, and from David unto the Babylonian removal fourteen generations, and from the Babylonian removal unto the Christ, fourteen generations.
18 And of Jesus Christ, the birth was thus: For his mother Mary having been betrothed to Joseph, before their coming together she was found to have conceived from the Holy Spirit,
19 and Joseph her husband being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, did wish privately to send her away.
20 And on his thinking of these things, lo, a messenger of the Lord in a dream appeared to him, saying, `Joseph, son of David, thou mayest not fear to receive Mary thy wife, for that which in her was begotten [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 all this hath come to pass, that it may be fulfilled that was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
23 `Lo, the virgin shall conceive, and she shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel,' which is, being interpreted `With us [he is] God.'
24 And Joseph, having risen from the sleep, did as the messenger of the Lord directed him, and received his wife,
25 and did not know her till she brought forth her son -- the first-born, and he called his name Jesus.

Joseph Accepts Jesus as His Son
18 This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about[d]: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit.(S) 19 Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet[e] did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce(T) her quietly.
20 But after he had considered this, an angel(U) of the Lord appeared to him in a dream(V) and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus,[f](W) because he will save his people from their sins.”(X)
22 All this took place to fulfill(Y) what the Lord had said through the prophet: 23 “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”[g](Z) (which means “God with us”).
24 When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel(AA) of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. 25 But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.(AB)
