Matthäus 1 | Nya Levande Bibeln

Jesus släkttavla

1 Detta är förfäderna till Jesus Kristus*, den utlovade kungen, som var ättling till kung David och Abraham:

2 Abraham, Isak, Jakob (pappa till Juda och hans bröder),

3 Juda, Peres (tvillingbror till Serach, mamman hette Tamar), Hesron,

4 Ram, Amminadav, Nachshon,

5 Salma, Boas (mamman hette Rachav), Oved (mamman hette Rut), Jishaj (pappa till kung David),

6 kung David. Salomo (mamman hette Batsheba, änka efter Uria),

7 Rehabeam, Avia, Asa,

8 Joshafat, Joram, Ussia,

9 Jotam, Achas, Hiskia,

10 Manasse, Amon,

11 Josia (pappa till Jojakin och hans bröder, som föddes vid den tid då folket fördes bort i fångenskap till Babylon), Jojakin.

12 Efter bortförandet till Babylon: Shealtiel, Serubbabel,

13 Avihud, Eljakim, Asor,

14 Sadok, Akim, Elihud,

15 Elasar, Mattan, Jakob,

16 och Josef. Josef var Marias man, och hon var mamma till Jesus Kristus.

17 Dessa personer utgör 14 släktled från Abraham fram till kung David, 14 släktled från kung David fram till bortförandet till Babylon och 14 släktled från bortförandet till Babylon fram till Jesus Kristus.

Jesus föds

18 När Jesus Kristus föddes gick det till så här: Hans mamma Maria var förlovad och skulle gifta sig med Josef. Men redan innan de gift sig blev hon med barn genom Guds heliga Ande.*

19 Josef, hennes blivande man, såg då ingen annan utväg än att i tysthet bryta förlovningen. Han ville leva efter Guds bud men ändå inte skämma ut Maria offentligt.*

20 Medan han fortfarande grubblade över hur han skulle lösa problemet visade sig en Herrens ängel för honom i en dröm. Ängeln sa: ”Josef, du ättling till kung David, tveka inte att gifta dig med Maria, för barnet hon bär har blivit till genom Guds heliga Ande.

21 Hon ska få en son, och du ska låta honom heta Jesus, för han ska rädda sitt folk från deras synder.*”

22 Genom detta blev det som Gud förutsagt genom profeten Jesaja verklighet:

23 ’Lyssna! Den unga flickan ska bli med barn och föda en son, och man ska kalla honom Immanuel (det betyder ”Gud är med oss”).’*

24 När Josef vaknade gjorde han som ängeln hade befallt och gifte sig med Maria,

25 men de hade inget sexuellt samliv förrän sonen hade fötts. Och Josef lät honom heta Jesus.

The Genealogy of Jesus Christ

1 The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers,

3 and Judah the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, and Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram,*

4 and Ram the father of Amminadab, and Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon,

5 and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse,

6 and Jesse the father of David the king. And David was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uriah,

7 and Solomon the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asaph,*

8 and Asaph the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah,

9 and Uzziah the father of Jotham, and Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah,

10 and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, and Manasseh the father of Amos,* and Amos the father of Josiah,

11 and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.

12 And after the deportation to Babylon: Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel,* and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel,

13 and Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, and Abiud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor,

14 and Azor the father of Zadok, and Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud,

15 and Eliud the father of Eleazar, and Eleazar the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob,

16 and Jacob the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called Christ.

17 So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ fourteen generations.

The Birth of Jesus Christ

18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ* took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed* to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit.

19 And her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly.

20 But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.

21 She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”

22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet:

23 “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel” (which means, God with us).

24 When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him: he took his wife,

25 but knew her not until she had given birth to a son. And he called his name Jesus.
