1 The(A) historical record[a](B) of Jesus Christ, the Son of David,(C) the Son of Abraham:(D)
From Abraham to David
2 Abraham fathered[b] Isaac,

Jacob fathered Judah and his brothers,(E)
3 Judah fathered Perez and Zerah by Tamar,
Perez fathered Hezron,
Hezron fathered Aram,(F)
4 Aram fathered Amminadab,
Amminadab fathered Nahshon,
Nahshon fathered Salmon,
5 Salmon fathered Boaz by Rahab,
Boaz fathered Obed by Ruth,
Obed fathered Jesse,(G)
6 and Jesse fathered King David.
From David to the Babylonian Exile
Then[c] David fathered Solomon by Uriah’s wife,(H)
7 Solomon fathered Rehoboam,
Rehoboam fathered Abijah,
Abijah fathered Asa,[d]
8 Asa[e] fathered Jehoshaphat,
Jehoshaphat fathered Joram,[f]
Joram fathered Uzziah,(I)
9 Uzziah fathered Jotham,
Jotham fathered Ahaz,
Ahaz fathered Hezekiah,
10 Hezekiah fathered Manasseh,
Manasseh fathered Amon,[g]
Amon fathered Josiah,(J)
11 and Josiah fathered Jechoniah and his brothers
at the time of the exile to Babylon.(K)
From the Exile to the Messiah
12 Then after the exile to Babylon
Jechoniah fathered Shealtiel,
Shealtiel fathered Zerubbabel,
13 Zerubbabel fathered Abiud,
Abiud fathered Eliakim,
Eliakim fathered Azor,(L)
14 Azor fathered Zadok,
Zadok fathered Achim,
Achim fathered Eliud,
15 Eliud fathered Eleazar,
Eleazar fathered Matthan,
Matthan fathered Jacob,
16 and Jacob fathered Joseph the husband of Mary,
who gave birth to[h] Jesus who is called the Messiah.(M)
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David were 14 generations; and from David until the exile to Babylon, 14 generations; and from the exile to Babylon until the Messiah, 14 generations.(N)
The Nativity of the Messiah
18 The birth of Jesus Christ came about this way: After His mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, it was discovered before they came together that she was pregnant by the Holy Spirit.(O) 19 So her husband Joseph, being a righteous man,(P) and not wanting to disgrace her publicly, decided to divorce her secretly.(Q)
20 But after he had considered these things, an angel of the Lord suddenly appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take Mary as your wife, because what has been conceived in her is by the Holy Spirit.(R) 21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to name Him Jesus,[i](S) because He will save His people from their sins.”(T)
22 Now all this took place to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet:
23 See, the virgin will become pregnant
and give birth to a son,
and they will name Him Immanuel,[j]
which is translated “God is with us.”(U)
24 When Joseph got up from sleeping, he did as the Lord’s angel had commanded him. He married her(V) 25 but did not know her intimately until she gave birth to a son.[k] And he named Him Jesus.(W)

Jesu släkttavla
1 (A) Detta är berättelsen[a] om Jesus Kristus[b], Davids son, Abrahams son[c].
2 (B) Abraham blev far till Isak,
Isak till Jakob,
och Jakob till Juda
och hans bröder.
3 (C) Juda blev far till Peres och Sera
genom Tamar,
Peres till Hesron,
Hesron till Ram,
4 Ram till Amminadab,
Amminadab till Nahshon,
Nahshon till Salmon.
5 Salmon blev far till Boas
genom Rahab,
Boas till Obed genom Rut,
Obed till Ishai,
6 (D) och Ishai till kung David.
David blev far till Salomo
genom Urias hustru.
7 (E) Salomo blev far till Rehabeam,
Rehabeam till Abia,
Abia till Asa,
8 (F) Asa till Joshafat,
Joshafat till Joram,
Joram till Ussia,
9 (G) Ussia till Jotam,
Jotam till Ahas,
Ahas till Hiskia,
10 (H) Hiskia till Manasse,
Manasse till Amon,
Amon till Josia,
11 (I) och Josia till Jekonja och hans bröder vid den tid då folket fördes bort till Babylon.
12 (J) Efter bortförandet till Babylon blev Jekonja far till Shealtiel,
Shealtiel till Serubbabel,
13 Serubbabel till Abihud,
Abihud till Eljakim,
Eljakim till Asur,
14 Asur till Sadok,
Sadok till Jakim,
Jakim till Elihud,
15 Elihud till Eleasar,
Eleasar till Mattan,
Mattan till Jakob,
16 (K) och Jakob till Josef, Marias man.
Av henne föddes Jesus,
som kallas Kristus.
17 Alltså blir det tillsammans fjorton släktled[d] från Abraham till David, fjorton led från David till fångenskapen i Babylon och fjorton led från fångenskapen i Babylon till Kristus.
Jesu födelse
18 (L) Med Jesu Kristi födelse gick det till så: hans mor Maria var trolovad[e] med Josef, men innan de hade varit tillsammans visade det sig att hon var havande genom den helige Ande. 19 Hennes man Josef var rättfärdig och ville inte dra skam över henne[f], och därför beslöt han att skilja sig från henne i hemlighet.
20 Men när han funderade över detta, då visade sig en Herrens ängel för honom i en dröm och sade: "Josef, Davids son! Var inte rädd för att ta till dig Maria som din hustru, för barnet i henne har blivit till genom den helige Ande. 21 (M) Hon ska föda en son, och du ska ge honom namnet Jesus[g], för han ska frälsa sitt folk från deras synder."
22 Allt detta hände för att det som Herren hade sagt genom profeten skulle uppfyllas: 23 (N) Se, jungfrun ska bli havande och föda en son, och man ska ge honom namnet Immanuel. Det betyder: Gud med oss.[h]
24 När Josef vaknade upp ur sömnen, gjorde han som Herrens ängel hade befallt och tog sin hustru till sig. 25 (O) Men han rörde henne inte förrän hon hade fött en son. Och han gav honom namnet Jesus.

- 1:1 Davids son, Abrahams son Jesus uppfyllde både profetiorna om en fredskung som Salomo (2 Sam 7:12f, Ps 72, Jes 9:6f) och om ett oskyldigt offerlamm som Isak (1 Mos 22, Jes 53).
- 1:17 fjorton släktled Matteus har förkortat släkttavlan genom att hoppa över tre ogudaktiga kungar efter Joram – Ahasja, Joas och Amasja (vers 8, jfr 1 Krön 3:11-12) – samt Josias son Jojakim (vers 11, jfr 1 Krön 3:15-16). Symmetrin med fjorton släktled rimmar nämligen med det hebreiska talvärdet för "David" (jfr not till 1:1). Det var inte ovanligt att släkttavlor förkortades (jfr t ex Esra 7:1-5), eftersom ordet "far" också kan användas om en förfader (jfr Matt 3:9).
- 1:18 trolovad En juridiskt bindande överlåtelse i väntan på bröllop. Trolovning ingicks normalt i tonåren, och redan vid detta stadium kunde otrohet bestraffas med döden (5 Mos 22:23f).

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)

King James Version
1 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the 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 Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;
6 And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife 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 Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:
12 And after they were brought to 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 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 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.
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.
20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the 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 conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
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 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
