Matthew 1

The Genealogy of Jesus the Messiah

1 This is the genealogy*1:1 Or is an account of the origin of Jesus the Messiah*1:1 Or Jesus Christ. Messiah (Hebrew) and Christ (Greek) both mean Anointed One; also in verse 18. the son of David, the son of Abraham:

2 Abraham was the father of Isaac,

Isaac the father of Jacob,

Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers,

3 Judah the father of Perez and Zerah, whose mother was Tamar,

Perez the father of Hezron,

Hezron the father of Ram,

4 Ram the father of Amminadab,

Amminadab the father of Nahshon,

Nahshon the father of Salmon,

5 Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab,

Boaz the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth,

Obed the father of Jesse,

6 and Jesse the father of King David.

David was the father of Solomon, whose mother had been Uriah’s wife,

7 Solomon the father of Rehoboam,

Rehoboam the father of Abijah,

Abijah the father of Asa,

8 Asa the father of Jehoshaphat,

Jehoshaphat the father of Jehoram,

Jehoram the father of Uzziah,

9 Uzziah the father of Jotham,

Jotham the father of Ahaz,

Ahaz the father of Hezekiah,

10 Hezekiah the father of Manasseh,

Manasseh the father of Amon,

Amon the father of Josiah,

11 and Josiah the father of Jeconiah*1:11 That is, Jehoiachin; also in verse 12 and his brothers at the time of the exile to Babylon.

12 After the exile to Babylon:

Jeconiah was the father of Shealtiel,

Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel,

13 Zerubbabel the father of Abihud,

Abihud the father of Eliakim,

Eliakim the father of Azor,

14 Azor the father of Zadok,

Zadok the father of Akim,

Akim the father of Elihud,

15 Elihud the father of Eleazar,

Eleazar the father of Matthan,

Matthan the father of Jacob,

16 and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, and Mary was the mother of Jesus who is called the Messiah.

17 Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Messiah.

Joseph Accepts Jesus as His Son

18 This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about*1:18 Or The origin of Jesus the Messiah was like this: 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. 19 Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet*1:19 Or was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.

20 But after he had considered 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 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,*1:21 Jesus is the Greek form of Joshua, which means the Lord saves. because he will save his people from their sins."

22 All this took place to fulfill 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"*1:23 Isaiah 7:14 (which means "God with us").

24 When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel 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.

A linhagem de Jesus Cristo

Lucas 3:23-38

1 Livro da geração de Jesus Cristo, filho de Davi, filho de Abraão.

2 Abraão gerou a Isaque; e Isaque gerou a Jacó; e Jacó gerou a Judá e a seus irmãos; 3 E Judá gerou, de Tamar, a Perez e a Zerá; e Perez gerou a Esrom; e Esrom gerou a Arão; 4 E Arão gerou a Aminadabe; e Aminadabe gerou a Naassom; e Naassom gerou a Salmom; 5 E Salmom gerou, de Raabe, a Boaz; e Boaz gerou de Rute a Obede; e Obede gerou a Jessé; 6 E Jessé gerou ao rei Davi; e o rei Davi gerou a Salomão da que foi mulher de Urias. 7 E Salomão gerou a Roboão; e Roboão gerou a Abias; e Abias gerou a Asa; 8 E Asa gerou a Josafá; e Josafá gerou a Jorão; e Jorão gerou a Uzias; 9 E Uzias gerou a Jotão; e Jotão gerou a Acaz; e Acaz gerou a Ezequias; 10 E Ezequias gerou a Manassés; e Manassés gerou a Amom; e Amom gerou a Josias; 11 E Josias gerou a Jeconias e a seus irmãos na deportação para Babilônia.

12 E, depois da deportação para a Babilônia, Jeconias gerou a Salatiel; e Salatiel gerou a Zorobabel; 13 E Zorobabel gerou a Abiúde; e Abiúde gerou a Eliaquim; e Eliaquim gerou a Azor; 14 E Azor gerou a Sadoque; e Sadoque gerou a Aquim; e Aquim gerou a Eliúde; 15 E Eliúde gerou a Eleazar; e Eleazar gerou a Matã; e Matã gerou a Jacó; 16 E Jacó gerou a José, marido de Maria, da qual nasceu JESUS, que se chama o Cristo.

17 De sorte que todas as gerações, desde Abraão até Davi, são catorze gerações; e desde Davi até a deportação para a Babilônia, catorze gerações; e desde a deportação para a Babilônia até Cristo, catorze gerações.

O nascimento de Cristo Jesus

Lucas 2:1-7

18 Ora, o nascimento de Jesus Cristo foi assim: Que estando Maria, sua mãe, desposada com José, antes de se ajuntarem, achou-se ter concebido do Espírito Santo. 19 Então José, seu marido, sendo justo, e a não queria infamar, intentou deixá-la secretamente. 20 E, pensando ele nisto, eis que em sonho lhe apareceu um anjo do Senhor, dizendo: José, filho de Davi, não temas receber a Maria, tua mulher, porque o que nela está gerado é do Espírito Santo;

21 E dará à luz um filho e chamarás o seu nome JESUS; porque ele salvará o seu povo dos seus pecados.

22 E, tudo isto aconteceu para que se cumprisse o que foi dito da parte do Senhor, pelo profeta, dizendo;

23 Eis que a virgem conceberá, e dará à luz um filho, e chamarão seu nome Emanuel, que traduzido é: Deus conosco.

24 E José, despertando do sono, fez como o anjo do Senhor lhe ordenara, e recebeu a sua mulher; 25 E não a conheceu até que deu à luz seu filho, o primogênito; e pôs-lhe por nome Jesus.
