| 1:11 | 
                                 
                                    And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:12 | 
                                 
                                    And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:13 | 
                                 
                                    And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:14 | 
                                 
                                    And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:15 | 
                                 
                                    And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:16 | 
                                 
                                    And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:17 | 
                                 
                                    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.
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:18 | 
                                 
                                    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.
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:19 | 
                                 
                                    Then Joseph her husband, being a just [man], and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:20 | 
                                 
                                    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.
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:21 | 
                                 
                                    And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:22 | 
                                 
                                    Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:23 | 
                                 
                                    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.
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:24 | 
                                 
                                    Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
                                 
                             | 
                        
| 1:25 | 
                                 
                                    And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
