1The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham:

2Abraham begot Isaac. And Isaac begot Jacob. And Jacob begot Judas and his brethren.

5And Salmon begot Booz of Rahab. And Booz begot Obed of Ruth. And Obed begot Jesse.
5Salmon autem genuit Booz de Rahab. Booz autem genuit Obed ex Ruth. Obed autem genuit Jesse. Jesse autem genuit David regem.
6And Jesse begot David the king. And David the king begot Solomon, of her that had been the wife of Urias.
6David autem rex genuit Salomonem ex ea quæ fuit Uriæ.
7And Solomon begot Roboam. And Roboam begot Abia. And Abia begot Asa.
7Salomon autem genuit Roboam. Roboam autem genuit Abiam. Abias autem genuit Asa.
8And Asa begot Josaphat. And Josaphat begot Joram. And Joram begot Ozias.
8Asa autem genuit Josophat. Josophat autem genuit Joram. Joram autem genuit Oziam.
9And Ozias begot Joatham. And Joatham begot Achaz. And Achaz begot Ezechias.
9Ozias autem genuit Joatham. Joatham autem genuit Achaz. Achaz autem genuit Ezechiam.
10And Ezechias begot Manasses. And Manesses begot Amon. And Amon begot Josias.
10Ezechias autem genuit Manassen. Manasses autem genuit Amon. Amon autem genuit Josiam.
11And Josias begot Jechonias and his brethren in the transmigration of Babylon.
11Josias autem genuit Jechoniam, et fratres ejus in transmigratione Babylonis.
12And after the transmigration of Babylon, Jechonias begot Salathiel. And Salathiel begot Zorobabel.
12Et post transmigrationem Babylonis: Jechonias genuit Salathiel. Salathiel autem genuit Zorobabel.
13And Zorobabel begot Abiud. And Abiud begot Eliacim. And Eliacim begot Azor.

15And Eliud begot Eleazar. And Eleazar begot Mathan. And Mathan begot Jacob.
15Eliud autem genuit Eleazar. Eleazar autem genuit Mathan. Mathan autem genuit Jacob.
16And Jacob begot Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
16Jacob autem genuit Joseph virum Mariæ, de qua natus est Jesus, qui vocatur Christus.
17So all the generations, from Abraham to David, are fourteen generations. And from David to the transmigration of Babylon, are fourteen generations: and from the transmigration of Babylon to Christ are fourteen generations.
17Omnes itaque generationes ab Abraham usque ad David, generationes quatuordecim: et a David usque ad transmigrationem Babylonis, generationes quatuordecim: et a transmigratione Babylonis usque ad Christum, generationes quatuordecim.
18Now the generation of Christ was in this wise. When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child, of the Holy Ghost.
18Christi autem generatio sic erat: cum esset desponsata mater ejus Maria Joseph, antequam convenirent inventa est in utero habens de Spiritu Sancto.
19Whereupon Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing publicly to expose her, was minded to put her away privately.
19Joseph autem vir ejus cum esset justus, et nollet eam traducere, voluit occulte dimittere eam.
20But while he thought on these things, behold the angel of the Lord appeared to him in his sleep, saying: Joseph, son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife, for that which is conceived in her, is of the Holy Ghost.
20Hæc autem eo cogitante, ecce angelus Domini apparuit in somnis ei, dicens: Joseph, fili David, noli timere accipere Mariam conjugem tuam: quod enim in ea natum est, de Spiritu Sancto est.
21And she shall bring forth a son: and thou shalt call his name JESUS. For he shall save his people from their sins.
21Pariet autem filium: et vocabis nomen ejus Jesum: ipse enim salvum faciet populum suum a peccatis eorum.
22Now all this was done that it might be fulfilled which the Lord spoke by the prophet, saying:
22Hoc autem totum factum est, ut adimpleretur quod dictum est a Domino per prophetam dicentem:
23Behold a virgin shall be with child, and bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
23Ecce virgo in utero habebit, et pariet filium: et vocabunt nomen ejus Emmanuel, quod est interpretatum Nobiscum Deus.
24And Joseph rising up from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him, and took unto him his wife.
24Exsurgens autem Joseph a somno, fecit sicut præcepit ei angelus Domini, et accepit conjugem suam.
25And he knew her not till she brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
25Et non cognoscebat eam donec peperit filium suum primogenitum: et vocavit nomen ejus Jesum.
