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

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

    7And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;

    8And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;

    9And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;

    10And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;

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

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

    13And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;

    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.

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

    20But 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.

    3And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears:
