Matthew 1:1-17

An account of the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah, the son of David, the
son of Abraham.

Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob
the father of Judah and his brothers, and Judah the father of Perez and
Zerah by Tamar, and Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of
Aram, and Aram the father of Aminadab, and Aminadab the father of Nahshon,
and Nahshon the father of Salmon, and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab,
and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse, and
Jesse the father of King David.

And David was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uriah, and Solomon the
father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the
father of Asaph, and Asaph the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the
father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah, and Uzziah the father of
Jotham, and Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah,
and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, and Manasseh the father of Amos, and
Amos the father of Josiah, and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his
brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.

And after the deportation to Babylon: Jechoniah was the father of
Salathiel, and Salathiel the father of Zerubbabel, and Zerubbabel the
father of Abiud, and Abiud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father
of Azor, and Azor the father of Zadok, and Zadok the father of Achim, and
Achim the father of Eliud, and Eliud the father of Eleazar, and Eleazar
the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob, and Jacob the
father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is
called the Messiah.

So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and
from David to the deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations; and from
the deportation to Babylon to the Messiah, fourteen generations.
