15 Eliud begot Eleazar, Eleazar begot Matthan, and Matthan begot Jacob.
16 And Jacob begot Joseph the husband of aMary, 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

18 Now the abirth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child bof the Holy Spirit.  
19 Then Joseph her husband, being1 a just man, and not wanting ato 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, afor that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.  
21 aAnd she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name1 Jesus, bfor 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 a“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 and1 did not know her till she had brought forth aher firstborn Son. And he called His name Jesus.
