亞伯拉罕的後裔,大衛的子孫(後裔子孫原文都作兒子下同),耶穌基督的家譜:
The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
亞伯拉罕生以撒;以撒生雅各;雅各生猶大和他的弟兄;

撒門從喇合氏生波阿斯;波阿斯從路得氏生俄備得;俄備得生耶西;
And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;
耶西生大衛王。大衛從烏利亞的妻子生所羅門;
And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her {that had been the wife} of Urias;

And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;
亞撒生約沙法;約沙法生約蘭;約蘭生烏西亞;
And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;

And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;
希西家生瑪拿西;瑪拿西生亞們;亞們生約西亞;

百姓被遷到巴比倫的時候,約西亞生耶哥尼雅和他的弟兄。
And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon: {Josias...: some read, Josias begat Jakim, and Jakim begat Jechonias}
遷到巴比倫之後,耶哥尼雅生撒拉鐵;撒拉鐵生所羅巴伯;
And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;

雅各生約瑟,就是馬利亞的丈夫。那稱為基督的耶穌是從馬利亞生的。
And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
這樣,從亞伯拉罕到大衛共有十四代;從大衛到遷至巴比倫的時候也有十四代;從遷至巴比倫的時候到基督又有十四代。
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.
耶穌基督降生的事記在下面:他母親馬利亞已經許配了約瑟,還沒有迎娶,馬利亞就從聖靈懷了孕。
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.
他丈夫約瑟是個義人,不願意明明的羞辱他,想要暗暗的把他休了。
Then Joseph her husband, being a just {man}, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
正思念這事的時候,有主的使者向他夢中顯現,說:大衛的子孫約瑟,不要怕!只管娶過你的妻子馬利亞來,因他所懷的孕是從聖靈來的。
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. {conceived: Gr. begotten}
他將要生一個兒子,你要給他起名叫耶穌,因他要將自己的百姓從罪惡裡救出來。
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. {JESUS: that is, Saviour, Heb}
這一切的事成就是要應驗主藉先知所說的話,
Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
說:必有童女懷孕生子;人要稱他的名為以馬內利。(以馬內利翻出來就是神與我們同在。)
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. {they...: or, his name shall be called}
約瑟醒了,起來,就遵著主使者的吩咐把妻子娶過來;
Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
只是沒有和他同房,等他生了兒子(有古卷:等他生了頭胎的兒子),就給他起名叫耶穌。
And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
