Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. James 5:16. Jesus said, "In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world." John 16:33.

The Gospel According to St. Matthew

Save my Place   Clear my Place

Chapter 1

Verse 1.) The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

Verse 2.) Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren;

Verse 3.) And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;

Verse 4.) And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon;

Verse 5.) And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;

Verse 6.) And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;

Verse 7.) And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;

Verse 8.) And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;

Verse 9.) And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;

Verse 10.) And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;

Verse 11.) And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:

Verse 12.) And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;

Verse 13.) And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;

Verse 14.) And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;

Verse 15.) And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;

Verse 16.) And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

Verse 17.) 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.

Verse 18.) 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.

Verse 19.) Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.

Verse 20.) 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.

Verse 21.) And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

Verse 22.) Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

Verse 23.) 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.

Verse 24.) Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

Verse 25.) And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
