   | 
  
  
  So all the generations from Abraham unto David are fourteen generations; and from David unto the carrying away to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the carrying away to Babylon unto the Christ fourteen generations.     
   | 
  
  
  | 
  Matthew 1:18
   | 
  
  
  Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. 
   | 
  
  
  | 
  Matthew 1:19
   | 
  
  
  And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily. 
   | 
  
  
  | 
  Matthew 1:20
   | 
  
  
  But when he thought on these things, behold, an 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 Spirit. 
   | 
  
  
  | 
  Matthew 1:21
   | 
  
  
  And she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name JESUS; for it is he that shall save his people from their sins. 
   | 
  
  
  | 
  Matthew 1:22
   | 
  
  
  Now all this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, 
   | 
  
  
  | 
  Matthew 1:23
   | 
  
  
  Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a       son, And they shall call his name Immanuel;     which is, being interpreted, God with us. 
   | 
  
  
  | 
  Matthew 1:24
   | 
  
  
  And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took unto him his wife; 
   | 
  
  
  | 
  Matthew 1:25
   | 
  
  
  and knew her not till she had brought forth a son: and he called his name JESUS.
