New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
The Genealogy of Jesus the Messiah
1 An account[a] of the genealogy[b] of Jesus the Messiah,[c] the son of David, the son of Abraham.(A)
2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers,(B) 3 and Judah the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, and Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Aram,(C) 4 and Aram the father of Aminadab, and Aminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon, 5 and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse, 6 and Jesse the father of King David.
And David was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uriah,(D) 7 and Solomon the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asaph,[d](E) 8 and Asaph[e] the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, 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,[f] and Amos[g] the father of Josiah,(F) 11 and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.(G)
12 And after the deportation to Babylon: Jechoniah was the father of Salathiel, and Salathiel the father of Zerubbabel,(H) 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 Joseph the husband of Mary, who bore Jesus, who is called the Messiah.[h](I)
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the deportation to Babylon to the Messiah,[i] fourteen generations.
The Birth of Jesus the Messiah
18 Now the birth of Jesus the Messiah[j] took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found to be pregnant from the Holy Spirit.(J) 19 Her husband Joseph, being a righteous man and unwilling to expose her to public disgrace, planned to divorce her quietly.(K) 20 But just when he had resolved to do this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She will bear a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”(L) 22 All this took place to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet:
23 “Look, the virgin shall become pregnant and give birth to a son,
and they shall name him Emmanuel,”
which means, “God is with us.”(M) 24 When Joseph awoke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him; he took her as his wife 25 but had no marital relations with her until she had given birth to a son,[k] and he named him Jesus.(N)

The Genealogy of Jesus Christ(A)
1 The book of the (B)genealogy[a] of Jesus Christ, (C)the Son of David, (D)the Son of Abraham:
2 (E)Abraham begot Isaac, (F)Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot (G)Judah and his brothers. 3 (H)Judah begot Perez and Zerah by Tamar, (I)Perez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Ram. 4 Ram begot Amminadab, Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon. 5 Salmon begot (J)Boaz by Rahab, Boaz begot Obed by Ruth, Obed begot Jesse, 6 and (K)Jesse begot David the king.
(L)David the king begot Solomon by her [b]who had been the wife of Uriah. 7 (M)Solomon begot Rehoboam, Rehoboam begot (N)Abijah, and Abijah begot [c]Asa. 8 Asa begot (O)Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat begot Joram, and Joram begot (P)Uzziah. 9 Uzziah begot Jotham, Jotham begot (Q)Ahaz, and Ahaz begot Hezekiah. 10 (R)Hezekiah begot Manasseh, Manasseh begot [d]Amon, and Amon begot (S)Josiah. 11 (T)Josiah begot [e]Jeconiah and his brothers about the time they were (U)carried away to Babylon.
12 And after they were brought to Babylon, (V)Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot (W)Zerubbabel. 13 Zerubbabel begot Abiud, Abiud begot Eliakim, and Eliakim begot Azor. 14 Azor begot Zadok, Zadok begot Achim, and Achim begot Eliud. 15 Eliud begot Eleazar, Eleazar begot Matthan, and Matthan begot Jacob. 16 And Jacob begot Joseph the husband of (X)Mary, of whom was born Jesus who is called Christ.
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, from David until the captivity in Babylon are fourteen generations, and from the captivity in Babylon until the Christ are fourteen generations.
Christ Born of Mary(Y)
18 Now the (Z)birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child (AA)of the Holy Spirit. 19 Then Joseph her husband, being [f]a just man, and not wanting (AB)to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly. 20 But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, (AC)for that which is [g]conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 (AD)And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name [h]Jesus, (AE)for He will save His people from their sins.”
22 So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying: 23 (AF)“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.”
24 Then Joseph, being aroused from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord commanded him and took to him his wife, 25 and [i]did not know her till she had brought forth (AG)her[j] firstborn Son. And he called His name Jesus.

17 So all the generations from Abraham to David, are fourteen generations. And from David until they were carried away into Babylon, fourteen generations; and after they were carried away into Babylon until Christ, fourteen generations.
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: When His mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child, from the Holy Ghost.
19 Then Joseph, her husband, being a just man and not willing to make her a public example, was of a mind to release her secretly.
20 But while he thought these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, the son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. For that which is conceived in her, is from the Holy Ghost.
21 “And she shall bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus. For He shall save His people from their sins.”
22 And all this was done to fulfill that which is spoken from the Lord by the Prophet, saying,
23 “Behold, a virgin shall be with Child, and shall bear a Son, and they shall call His name Emmanuel, which is by interpretation, ‘God with us’.”
24 Then Joseph, having awakened, did as the angel of the Lord had instructed him, and took his wife.
25 But he did not know her until she had brought forth her first-born Son, and he called His name, Jesus.

Traducción en lenguaje actual
Los antepasados de Jesús
1 Jesús era descendiente de David y de Abraham. Ésta es la lista de todos sus familiares que vivieron antes de él:
2 Desde Abraham hasta David fueron:
Abraham,
Isaac,
Jacob,
Judá y sus hermanos,
3 Fares y Zérah (su madre fue Tamar),
Hesrón,
Aram,
4 Aminadab,
Nahasón,
Salmón,
5 Booz (su madre fue Rahab),
Obed (su madre fue Rut),
Isaí,
6 el rey David.
Desde David hasta el tiempo en que los judíos fueron llevados como prisioneros a Babilonia, sus antepasados fueron:
David,
Salomón (su madre había sido esposa de Urías),
7 Roboam,
Abías,
Asá,
8 Josafat,
Joram,
Ozías,
9 Jotam,
Acaz,
Ezequías,

11 Joaquín y sus hermanos.
12 Desde el tiempo en que los judíos fueron llevados a Babilonia hasta el nacimiento de Jesús, sus antepasados fueron:
Joaquín,
Salatiel,
Zorobabel,
13 Abihud,

Azor,

17 Desde Abraham hasta David, hubo catorce generaciones. Desde David hasta que los judíos fueron llevados prisioneros a Babilonia también hubo catorce generaciones, y otras catorce desde ese momento hasta el nacimiento del Mesías.
El nacimiento de Jesús
18-20 Así fue como nació Jesús, el Mesías: su madre, María estaba comprometida para casarse con José. Pero antes de que vivieran juntos, se supo que ella estaba embarazada. José era un hombre bueno y obediente a la ley de Dios. Como no quería acusar a María delante de todo el pueblo, decidió romper en secreto el compromiso.
Mientras pensaba en todo esto, un ángel de Dios se le apareció en un sueño y le dijo: «José, no tengas miedo de casarte con María. El Espíritu Santo fue quien hizo que ella quedara embarazada. 21 Cuando nazca el niño, lo llamarás Jesús. Él va a salvar a su pueblo del castigo que merece por sus pecados.»
22-25 Cuando José despertó, obedeció al ángel de Dios y se casó con María. Pero no durmieron juntos como esposos antes de que naciera el niño. Y cuando éste nació, José le puso por nombre Jesús.
Todo esto sucedió para que se cumpliera lo que Dios había dicho por medio del profeta Isaías:
«¡Presten atención!
Una joven virgen
quedará embarazada,
y tendrá un hijo.
Y llamarán a ese niño
Emanuel.»
Este nombre significa «Dios está con nosotros».

The Genealogy of Jesus the Messiah
1 An account of the genealogy[a] of Jesus the Messiah,[b] the son of David, the son of Abraham.
2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers, 3 and Judah the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, and Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Aram, 4 and Aram the father of Aminadab, and Aminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon, 5 and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse, 6 and Jesse the father of King David.
And David was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uriah, 7 and Solomon the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asaph,[c] 8 and Asaph[d] the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, 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,[e] and Amos[f] the father of Josiah, 11 and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.
12 And after the deportation to Babylon: Jechoniah was the father of Salathiel, and Salathiel 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 Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called the Messiah.[g]
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the deportation to Babylon to the Messiah,[h] fourteen generations.
The Birth of Jesus the Messiah
18 Now the birth of Jesus the Messiah[i] took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit. 19 Her husband Joseph, being a righteous man and unwilling to expose her to public disgrace, planned to dismiss her quietly. 20 But just when he had resolved to do this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, ‘Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She will bear a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.’ 22 All this took place to fulfil what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet:
23 ‘Look, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son,
and they shall name him Emmanuel’,
which means, ‘God is with us.’ 24 When Joseph awoke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him; he took her as his wife, 25 but had no marital relations with her until she had borne a son;[j] and he named him Jesus.
