1 The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham:

2 Abraham begot Isaac, Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot Judah and his brothers.

3 And Judah begot Pharez and Zarah by Tamar, Pharez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Aram.

4 And Aram begot Amminadab, Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon.

5 And Salmon begot Boaz by Rahab, Boaz begot Obed by Ruth, Obed begot Jesse,

6 and Jesse begot David the king. David the king begot Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah.

7 And Solomon begot Rehoboam, Rehoboam begot Abijah, and Abijah begot Asa.

8 And Asa begot Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat begot Joram, and Joram begot Uzziah.

9 And Uzziah begot Jotham, Jotham begot Ahaz, and Ahaz begot Hezekiah.

10 And Hezekiah begot Manasseh, Manasseh begot Amon, and Amon begot Josiah.

11 And Josiah begot Jeconiah and his brothers about the time they were carried away to Babylon.

12 And after they were brought to Babylon, Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel.

13 And Zerubbabel begot Abiud, Abiud begot Eliakim, and Eliakim begot Azor.

14 And Azor begot Sadok, Sadok begot Achim, and Achim begot Eliud.

15 And Eliud begot Eleazar, Eleazar begot Matthan, and Matthan begot Jacob.

16 And Jacob begot 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, from David until the deportation into Babylon are fourteen generations, and from the deportation into Babylon until the Christ are fourteen generations.

18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in this way: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child from the Holy Spirit.

19 But Joseph her husband, being just, and not wanting to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly.

20 But while he was pondering 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, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.

21 And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, 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 Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bring forth a Son, and they shall call His name Emmanuel, 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 did not know her till she had brought forth her firstborn Son. And he called His name JESUS.

1 Registro da genealogia de Jesus Cristo, filho de Davi, filho de Abraão:

2 Abraão gerou Isaque; Isaque gerou Jacó; Jacó gerou Judá e seus irmãos;

3 Judá gerou Perez e Zerá, cuja mãe foi Tamar; Perez gerou Esrom; Esrom gerou Arão;

4 Arão gerou Aminadabe; Aminadabe gerou Naassom; Naassom gerou Salmom;

5 Salmom gerou Boaz, cuja mãe foi Raabe; Boaz gerou Obede, cuja mãe foi Rute; Obede gerou Jessé;

6 e Jessé gerou o rei Davi. Davi gerou Salomão, cuja mãe tinha sido mulher de Urias;

7 Salomão gerou Roboão; Roboão gerou Abias; Abias gerou Asa;

8 Asa gerou Josafá; Josafá gerou Jorão; Jorão gerou Uzias;

9 Uzias gerou Jotão; Jotão gerou Acaz; Acaz gerou Ezequias;

10 Ezequias gerou Manassés; Manassés gerou Amom; Amom gerou Josias;

11 e Josias gerou Jeconias e seus irmãos, no tempo do exílio na Babilônia.

12 Depois do exílio na Babilônia: Jeconias gerou Salatiel; Salatiel gerou Zorobabel;

13 Zorobabel gerou Abiúde; Abiúde gerou Eliaquim; Eliaquim gerou Azor;

14 Azor gerou Sadoque; Sadoque gerou Aquim; Aquim gerou Eliúde;

15 Eliúde gerou Eleazar; Eleazar gerou Matã; Matã gerou Jacó;

16 e Jacó gerou José, marido de Maria, da qual nasceu Jesus, que é chamado Cristo.

17 Assim, ao todo houve catorze gerações de Abraão a Davi, catorze de Davi até o exílio na Babilônia e catorze do exílio até o Cristo.

18 Foi assim o nascimento de Jesus Cristo: Maria, sua mãe, estava prometida em casamento a José, mas, antes que se unissem, achou-se grávida pelo Espírito Santo.

19 Por ser José, seu marido, um homem justo, e não querendo expô-la à desonra pública, pretendia anular o casamento secretamente.

20 Mas, depois de ter pensado nisso, apareceu-lhe um anjo do Senhor em sonho e disse: "José, filho de Davi, não tema receber Maria como sua esposa, pois o que nela foi gerado procede do Espírito Santo.

21 Ela dará à luz um filho, e você deverá dar-lhe o nome de Jesus, porque ele salvará o seu povo dos seus pecados".

22 Tudo isso aconteceu para que se cumprisse o que o Senhor dissera pelo profeta:

23 "A virgem ficará grávida e dará à luz um filho, e lhe chamarão Emanuel" que significa "Deus conosco".

24 Ao acordar, José fez o que o anjo do Senhor lhe tinha ordenado e recebeu Maria como sua esposa.

25 Mas não teve relações com ela enquanto ela não deu à luz um filho. E ele lhe pôs o nome de Jesus.
