Généalogie et naissance de Jésus-Christ
1 Voici la généalogie de Jésus-Christ, fils de David, fils d'Abraham. 2 Abraham eut pour fils Isaac; Isaac eut Jacob; Jacob eut Juda et ses frères; 3 Juda eut Pérets et Zérach de Tamar; Pérets eut Hetsrom; Hetsrom eut Aram; 4 Aram eut pour fils Aminadab; Aminadab eut Nachshon; Nachshon eut Salmon; 5 Salmon eut Boaz de Rahab; Boaz eut Obed de Ruth; 6 Obed eut pour fils Isaï; Isaï eut David.
Le roi David eut Salomon de la femme d'Urie; 7 Salomon eut pour fils Roboam; Roboam eut Abija; Abija eut Asa; 8 Asa eut pour fils Josaphat; Josaphat eut Joram; Joram eut Ozias; 9 Ozias eut pour fils Jotham; Jotham eut Achaz; Achaz eut Ezéchias; 10 Ezéchias eut pour fils Manassé; Manassé eut Amon; Amon eut Josias; 11 Josias eut pour descendants Jéconias et ses frères, à l’époque de la déportation à Babylone.
12 Après la déportation à Babylone, Jéconias eut pour fils Shealthiel; Shealthiel eut Zorobabel; 13 Zorobabel eut pour fils Abiud; Abiud eut Eliakim; Eliakim eut Azor; 14 Azor eut pour fils Sadok; Sadok eut Achim; Achim eut Eliud; 15 Eliud eut pour fils Eléazar; Eléazar eut Matthan; Matthan eut Jacob; 16 Jacob eut pour fils Joseph, l'époux de Marie, de laquelle est né Jésus, qu’on appelle le Christ[a].
17 Il y a donc en tout 14 générations depuis Abraham jusqu'à David, 14 générations depuis David jusqu'à la déportation à Babylone et 14 générations depuis la déportation à Babylone jusqu'au Christ.
18 Voici de quelle manière arriva la naissance de Jésus-Christ. Marie, sa mère, était fiancée à Joseph; or, avant qu'ils aient habité ensemble, elle se trouva enceinte par l'action du Saint-Esprit. 19 Joseph, son fiancé, qui était un homme juste et qui ne voulait pas l’exposer au déshonneur, se proposa de rompre secrètement avec elle. 20 Comme il y pensait, un ange du Seigneur lui apparut dans un rêve et dit: «Joseph, descendant de David, n’aie pas peur de prendre Marie pour femme, car l'enfant qu’elle porte vient du Saint-Esprit. 21 Elle mettra au monde un fils et tu lui donneras le nom de Jésus[b] car c'est lui qui sauvera son peuple de ses péchés.»
22 Tout cela arriva afin que s'accomplisse ce que le Seigneur avait annoncé par le prophète: 23 La vierge sera enceinte, elle mettra au monde un fils et on l’appellera Emmanuel[c], ce qui signifie «Dieu avec nous».
24 A son réveil, Joseph fit ce que l'ange du Seigneur lui avait ordonné et il prit sa femme chez lui, 25 mais il n'eut pas de relations conjugales avec elle jusqu'à ce qu'elle ait mis au monde un fils [premier-né] auquel il donna le nom de Jésus.

The Family Line of Jesus the Messiah
1 This is the written story of the family line of Jesus the Messiah. He is the son of David. He is also the son of Abraham.
2 Abraham was the father of Isaac.
Isaac was the father of Jacob.
Jacob was the father of Judah and his brothers.
3 Judah was the father of Perez and Zerah. Tamar was their mother.
Perez was the father of Hezron.
Hezron was the father of Ram.
4 Ram was the father of Amminadab.
Amminadab was the father of Nahshon.
Nahshon was the father of Salmon.
5 Salmon was the father of Boaz. Rahab was Boaz’s mother.
Boaz was the father of Obed. Ruth was Obed’s mother.
Obed was the father of Jesse.
6 And Jesse was the father of King David.
David was the father of Solomon. Solomon’s mother had been Uriah’s wife.
7 Solomon was the father of Rehoboam.
Rehoboam was the father of Abijah.
Abijah was the father of Asa.
8 Asa was the father of Jehoshaphat.
Jehoshaphat was the father of Jehoram.
Jehoram was the father of Uzziah.
9 Uzziah was the father of Jotham.
Jotham was the father of Ahaz.
Ahaz was the father of Hezekiah.
10 Hezekiah was the father of Manasseh.
Manasseh was the father of Amon.
Amon was the father of Josiah.
11 And Josiah was the father of Jeconiah and his brothers. At that time, the Jewish people were forced to go away to Babylon.
12 After this, the family line continued.
Jeconiah was the father of Shealtiel.
Shealtiel was the father of Zerubbabel.
13 Zerubbabel was the father of Abihud.
Abihud was the father of Eliakim.
Eliakim was the father of Azor.
14 Azor was the father of Zadok.
Zadok was the father of Akim.
Akim was the father of Elihud.
15 Elihud was the father of Eleazar.
Eleazar was the father of Matthan.
Matthan was the father of Jacob.
16 Jacob was the father of Joseph. Joseph was the husband of Mary. And Mary was the mother of Jesus, who is called the Messiah.
17 So there were 14 generations from Abraham to David. There were 14 from David until the Jewish people were forced to go away to Babylon. And there were 14 from that time to the Messiah.
Joseph Accepts Jesus as His Son
18 This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about. His mother Mary and Joseph had promised to get married. But before they started to live together, it became clear that she was going to have a baby. She became pregnant by the power of the Holy Spirit. 19 Her husband Joseph was faithful to the law. But he did not want to put her to shame in public. So he planned to divorce her quietly.
20 But as Joseph was thinking about this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream. The angel said, “Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take Mary home as your wife. The baby inside her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She is going to have a son. You must give him the name Jesus. That’s because he will save his people from their sins.”
22 All this took place to bring about what the Lord had said would happen. He had said through the prophet, 23 “The virgin is going to have a baby. She will give birth to a son. And he will be called Immanuel.” (Isaiah 7:14) The name Immanuel means “God with us.”
24 Joseph woke up. He did what the angel of the Lord commanded him to do. He took Mary home as his wife. 25 But he did not sleep with her until she gave birth to a son. And Joseph gave him the name Jesus.
Matthew 1
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.
