Jesus släkttavla
(Luk 3:23-38)
1 Detta är släkttavlan för Jesus Kristus[a], som var ättling till David och Abraham:
2 Abraham var far till Isak,
Isak till Jakob,
Jakob till Juda och hans bröder,
3 Juda var far till Peres och Serach, och deras mor hette Tamar,
Peres var far till Hesron,
Hesron till Ram,
4 Ram till Amminadav,
Amminadav till Nachshon,
Nachshon till Salma,
5 Salma till Boas, vars mor hette Rachav,
Boas till Oved, vars mor hette Rut,
Oved till Jishaj,
6 Jishaj till kung David.
David var far till Salomo, vars mor var änkan efter Uria,
7 Salomo till Rehabeam,
Rehabeam till Avia,
Avia till Asa,
8 Asa till Joshafat,
Joshafat till Joram,
Joram till Ussia,
9 Ussia till Jotam,
Jotam till Achas,
Achas till Hiskia,
10 Hiskia till Manasse,
Manasse till Amon,
Amon till Josia,
11 Josia till Jekonia[b] och hans bröder, som föddes vid den tid då folket fördes bort i fångenskap till Babylon.
12 Efter bortförandet till Babylon:
Jekonias, far till Shealtiel,
Shealtiel till Serubbabel,
13 Serubbabel till Avihud,
Avihud till Eljakim,
Eljakim till Asor,
14 Asor till Sadok,
Sadok till Akim,
Akim till Elihud,
15 Elihud till Elasar,
Elasar till Mattan,
Mattan till Jakob,
16 och Jakob till Josef. Josef var Marias man, och hon var mor till Jesus som kallas Kristus.
17 Det var alltså fjorton släktled från Abraham fram till David, fjorton släktled från David fram till bortförandet till Babylon och fjorton släktled från bortförandet till Babylon fram till Kristus.
Jesus föds
18 När Jesus Kristus föddes gick det till så här: Hans mor Maria var trolovad[c] med Josef. Men redan innan de gift sig blev hon med barn genom den heliga Anden. 19 Josef, hennes blivande man, var rättfärdig och ville inte skämma ut Maria offentligt utan tänkte skilja sig från henne i hemlighet.[d]
20 Medan han fortfarande grubblade över detta visade sig en Herrens ängel för honom i en dröm. Ängeln sa: ”Josef, du ättling till David, tveka inte att gifta dig med Maria, för barnet hon bär har blivit till genom den heliga Anden. 21 Hon ska få en Son, och du ska låta honom heta Jesus, för han ska rädda sitt folk från deras synder.[e]”
22 Genom detta gick det som Herren förutsagt genom profeten Jesaja i uppfyllelse:
23 ”Jungfrun ska bli med barn
och föda en Son,
och man ska ge honom namnet Immanuel”.
(Det betyder: Gud med oss).[f]
24 När Josef vaknade gjorde han som ängeln hade befallt och gifte sig med Maria, 25 men de hade inget sexuellt umgänge förrän Sonen hade fötts. Och Josef lät honom heta Jesus.
Footnotes
- 1:1 Kristus betyder den smorde på grekiska. Dess hebreiska motsvarighet är Messias. Bland Israels folk smordes kungar, präster och profeter med olja innan de började sin uppgift. Gud hade genom profeterna lovat att sända en smord kung som skulle härska över alla folk. Judarna väntade på att denna kung skulle återupprätta Israel som nation.
- 1:11 Också känd som Jojakin (1 Krön 3:15).
- 1:18 Den judiska förlovningen var mer bindande än en nutida förlovning. Den kunde endast brytas genom skilsmässa och något sexuellt umgänge fick inte förekomma.
- 1:19 Josef tänkte skriva under de nödvändiga pappren för skilsmässa, men inte låta henne dömas offentligt och bli stenad, vilket han kunde ha gjort.
- 1:21 Jesus, som är den grekiska formen av namnet Josua (jeshua) betyder Herren räddar.
- 1:23 Se Jes 7:14, varifrån citatet är hämtat; jungfrun enligt Septuaginta, i den masoretiska texten den unga kvinnan. Sammanhanget visar dock att i fråga om Jesus mor var betydelsen i vilket fall som helst ”jungfru”, även om också det grekiska ordet annars kan användas utan att det ligger någon betoning på just den aspekten, så t.ex. i liknelsen om de tio flickorna i Matt 25.

New King James Version
The Genealogy of Jesus Christ(A)
1 The book of the (B)genealogy[a] of Jesus Christ, (C)the Son of David, (D)the Son of Abraham:
2 (E)Abraham begot Isaac, (F)Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot (G)Judah and his brothers. 3 (H)Judah begot Perez and Zerah by Tamar, (I)Perez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Ram. 4 Ram begot Amminadab, Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon. 5 Salmon begot (J)Boaz by Rahab, Boaz begot Obed by Ruth, Obed begot Jesse, 6 and (K)Jesse begot David the king.
(L)David the king begot Solomon by her [b]who had been the wife of Uriah. 7 (M)Solomon begot Rehoboam, Rehoboam begot (N)Abijah, and Abijah begot [c]Asa. 8 Asa begot (O)Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat begot Joram, and Joram begot (P)Uzziah. 9 Uzziah begot Jotham, Jotham begot (Q)Ahaz, and Ahaz begot Hezekiah. 10 (R)Hezekiah begot Manasseh, Manasseh begot [d]Amon, and Amon begot (S)Josiah. 11 (T)Josiah begot [e]Jeconiah and his brothers about the time they were (U)carried away to Babylon.
12 And after they were brought to Babylon, (V)Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot (W)Zerubbabel. 13 Zerubbabel begot Abiud, Abiud begot Eliakim, and Eliakim begot Azor. 14 Azor begot Zadok, Zadok begot Achim, and Achim begot Eliud. 15 Eliud begot Eleazar, Eleazar begot Matthan, and Matthan begot Jacob. 16 And Jacob begot Joseph the husband of (X)Mary, of whom was born Jesus who is called Christ.
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, from David until the captivity in Babylon are fourteen generations, and from the captivity in Babylon until the Christ are fourteen generations.
Christ Born of Mary(Y)
18 Now the (Z)birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child (AA)of the Holy Spirit. 19 Then Joseph her husband, being [f]a just man, and not wanting (AB)to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly. 20 But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, (AC)for that which is [g]conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 (AD)And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name [h]Jesus, (AE)for He will save His people from their sins.”
22 So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying: 23 (AF)“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.”
24 Then Joseph, being aroused from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord commanded him and took to him his wife, 25 and [i]did not know her till she had brought forth (AG)her[j] firstborn Son. And he called His name Jesus.

The Genealogy of Jesus Christ
1 (A)The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, (B)the son of David, (C)the son of Abraham.
2 (D)Abraham was the father of Isaac, and (E)Isaac the father of Jacob, and (F)Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers, 3 and (G)Judah the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, and Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram,[a] 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 (H)Rahab, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse, 6 and (I)Jesse the father of David the king.
And (J)David was the father of Solomon by (K)the wife of Uriah, 7 and (L)Solomon the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asaph,[b] 8 and Asaph the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, (M)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,[c] and Amos the father of Josiah, 11 and (N)Josiah the father of (O)Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.
12 And after the deportation to Babylon: (P)Jechoniah was the father of (Q)Shealtiel,[d] and (R)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 (S)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 (T)the Christ fourteen generations.
The Birth of Jesus Christ
18 Now the birth of (U)Jesus Christ[e] took place in this way. (V)When his mother Mary had been betrothed[f] to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child (W)from the Holy Spirit. 19 And her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling (X)to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly. 20 But as he considered these things, behold, (Y)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 (Z)you shall call his name Jesus, (AA)for he will save his people from their sins.” 22 (AB)All this took place (AC)to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet:
23 (AD)“Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son,
and they shall call his name (AE)Immanuel”
(which means, God (AF)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 (AG)he called his name Jesus.

King James Version
1 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
2 Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren;
3 And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;
4 And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon;
5 And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;
6 And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;
7 And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;
8 And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;
9 And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;
10 And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;
11 And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:
12 And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
13 And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;
14 And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;
15 And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;
16 And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
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.
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.
19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.
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.
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.
22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
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.
24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
