16and JacobG2384 begat JosephG2501 the husbandG435 of MaryG3137, of whom was bornG1080 JesusG2424, who is called ChristG5547.

17So all the generationsG1074 from AbrahamG11 unto DavidG1138 are fourteenG1180 generationsG1074; and from DavidG1138 unto the carrying awayG575 to BabylonG897 fourteenG1180 generationsG1074; and from the carrying awayG575 to BabylonG897 unto the ChristG5547 fourteenG1180 generationsG1074.

18NowG1161 the birth of JesusG2424 ChristG5547 wasG1510 on this wise: When his motherG3384 MaryG3137 had beenG1510 betrothedG3423 to JosephG2501, before they cameG4905 togetherG4905 she wasG1510 foundG2147 with child of the HolyG40 SpiritG4151. 19And JosephG2501 her husbandG435, beingG1510 a righteousG1342 manG435, and not willingG2309 to make her a public example, wasG1510 minded to put her awayG630 privily.
