Die Geburt Jesu Christi

18 Die Geburt Jesu Christi aber geschah auf diese Weise: Als nämlich seine Mutter Maria mit Joseph verlobt war, noch ehe sie zusammengekommen waren, erwies es sich, dass sie vom Heiligen Geist schwanger geworden war. 19 Aber Joseph, ihr Mann, der gerecht war und sie doch nicht der öffentlichen Schande preisgeben wollte, gedachte sie heimlich zu entlassen. 20 Während er aber dies im Sinn hatte, siehe, da erschien ihm ein Engel des Herrn im Traum, der sprach: Joseph, Sohn Davids, scheue dich nicht, Maria, deine Frau, zu dir zu nehmen; denn was in ihr gezeugt ist, das ist vom Heiligen Geist. 21 Sie wird aber einen Sohn gebären, und du sollst ihm den Namen Jesus* geben, denn er wird sein Volk erretten von ihren Sünden. 22 Dies alles aber ist geschehen, damit erfüllt würde, was der Herr durch den Propheten geredet hat, der spricht: 23 »Siehe, die Jungfrau wird schwanger werden und einen Sohn gebären; und man wird ihm den Namen Immanuel geben«*, das heißt übersetzt: »Gott mit uns«. 24 Als nun Joseph vom Schlaf erwachte, handelte er so, wie es ihm der Engel des Herrn befohlen hatte, und nahm seine Frau zu sich; 25 und er erkannte sie nicht, bis sie ihren erstgeborenen Sohn geboren hatte; und er gab ihm den Namen Jesus.

The family line of Jesus the Messiah

1 This is the written story of the family line of Jesus the Messiah. He is the son of David. He is also the son of Abraham. 2 Abraham was the father of Isaac. Isaac was the father of Jacob. Jacob was the father of Judah and his brothers. 3 Judah was the father of Perez and Zerah. Tamar was their mother. Perez was the father of Hezron. Hezron was the father of Ram. 4 Ram was the father of Amminadab. Amminadab was the father of Nahshon. Nahshon was the father of Salmon. 5 Salmon was the father of Boaz. Rahab was Boaz’s mother. Boaz was the father of Obed. Ruth was Obed’s mother. Obed was the father of Jesse. 6 And Jesse was the father of King David. David was the father of Solomon. Solomon’s mother had been Uriah’s wife. 7 Solomon was the father of Rehoboam. Rehoboam was the father of Abijah. Abijah was the father of Asa. 8 Asa was the father of Jehoshaphat. Jehoshaphat was the father of Jehoram. Jehoram was the father of Uzziah. 9 Uzziah was the father of Jotham. Jotham was the father of Ahaz. Ahaz was the father of Hezekiah. 10 Hezekiah was the father of Manasseh. Manasseh was the father of Amon. Amon was the father of Josiah. 11 And Josiah was the father of Jeconiah and his brothers. At that time, the Jewish people were forced to go away to Babylon. 12 After this, the family line continued. Jeconiah was the father of Shealtiel. Shealtiel was the father of Zerubbabel. 13 Zerubbabel was the father of Abihud. Abihud was the father of Eliakim. Eliakim was the father of Azor. 14 Azor was the father of Zadok. Zadok was the father of Akim. Akim was the father of Elihud. 15 Elihud was the father of Eleazar. Eleazar was the father of Matthan. Matthan was the father of Jacob. 16 Jacob was the father of Joseph. Joseph was the husband of Mary. And Mary was the mother of Jesus, who is called the Messiah. 17 So there were 14 generations from Abraham to David. There were 14 from David until the Jewish people were forced to go away to Babylon. And there were 14 from that time to the Messiah.

Joseph accepts Jesus as his Son

18 This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about. His mother Mary and Joseph had promised to get married. But before they started to live together, it became clear that she was going to have a baby. She became pregnant by the power of the Holy Spirit. 19 Her husband Joseph was faithful to the law. But he did not want to put her to shame in public. So he planned to divorce her quietly. 20 But as Joseph was thinking about this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream. The angel said, ‘Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take Mary home as your wife. The baby inside her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She is going to have a son. You must give him the name Jesus. That’s because he will save his people from their sins.’ 22 All this took place to bring about what the Lord had said would happen. He had said through the prophet, 23 ‘The virgin is going to have a baby. She will give birth to a son. And he will be called Immanuel.’ The name Immanuel means ‘God with us.’ 24 Joseph woke up. He did what the angel of the Lord commanded him to do. He took Mary home as his wife. 25 But he did not sleep with her until she gave birth to a son. And Joseph gave him the name Jesus.
