Genesis
1
Gen
1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Gen
1:2 Now the earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the
surface of the deep. God's Spirit was hovering over the surface of
the waters.
Gen
1:3 God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
Gen
1:4 God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the
light from the darkness.
Gen
1:5 God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night.
There was evening and there was morning, one day.
Gen
1:6 God said, "Let there be an expanse in the middle of the
waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."
Gen
1:7 God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under
the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was
so.
Gen
1:8 God called the expanse sky. There was evening and there was
morning, a second day.
Gen
1:9 God said, "Let the waters under the sky be gathered
together to one place, and let the dry land appear;" and it was
so.
Gen
1:10 God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of
the waters he called Seas. God saw that it was good.
Gen
1:11 God said, "Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding
seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with its seed
in it, on the earth;" and it was so.
Gen
1:12 The earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their
kind, and trees bearing fruit, with its seed in it, after their kind;
and God saw that it was good.
Gen
1:13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.
Gen
1:14 God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of sky to
divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for
seasons, and for days and years;
Gen
1:15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of sky to give light
on the earth;" and it was so.
Gen
1:16 God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the
day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He also made the stars.
Gen
1:17 God set them in the expanse of sky to give light to the earth,
Gen
1:18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the
light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.
Gen
1:19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
Gen
1:20 God said, "Let the waters swarm with swarms of living
creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of
sky."
Gen
1:21 God created the large sea creatures, and every living creature
that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after their kind, and
every winged bird after its kind. God saw that it was good.
Gen
1:22 God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and
fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth."
Gen
1:23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
Gen
1:24 God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures
after their kind, livestock, creeping things, and animals of the
earth after their kind;" and it was so.
Gen
1:25 God made the animals of the earth after their kind, and the
livestock after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground
after its kind. God saw that it was good.
Gen
1:26 God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our
likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and
over the birds of the sky, and over the livestock, and over all the
earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."
Gen
1:27 God created man in his own image. In God's image he created
him; male and female he created them.
Gen
1:28 God blessed them. God said to them, "Be fruitful,
multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish
of the sea, over the birds of the sky, and over every living thing
that moves on the earth."
Gen
1:29 God said, "Behold, I have given you every herb yielding
seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which
bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.
Gen
1:30 To every animal of the earth, and to every bird of the sky, and
to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I
have given every green herb for food;" and it was so.
Gen
1:31 God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very
good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.

Matthew 1
Mat 1:1 The book of the
genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
Mat 1:2 Abraham became
the father of Isaac. Isaac became the father of Jacob. Jacob became
the father of Judah and his brothers.
Mat 1:3 Judah became
the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar. Perez became the father of
Hezron. Hezron became the father of Ram.
Mat 1:4 Ram became the
father of Amminadab. Amminadab became the father of Nahshon. Nahshon
became the father of Salmon.
Mat 1:5 Salmon became
the father of Boaz by Rahab. Boaz became the father of Obed by Ruth.
Obed became the father of Jesse.
Mat 1:6 Jesse became
the father of David the king. David became the father of Solomon by
her who had been the wife of Uriah.
Mat 1:7 Solomon became
the father of Rehoboam. Rehoboam became the father of Abijah. Abijah
became the father of Asa.
Mat 1:8 Asa became the
father of Jehoshaphat. Jehoshaphat became the father of Joram. Joram
became the father of Uzziah.
Mat 1:9 Uzziah became
the father of Jotham. Jotham became the father of Ahaz. Ahaz became
the father of Hezekiah.
Mat 1:10 Hezekiah
became the father of Manasseh. Manasseh became the father of Amon.
Amon became the father of Josiah.
Mat 1:11 Josiah became
the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the exile to
Babylon.
Mat 1:12 After the
exile to Babylon, Jechoniah became the father of Shealtiel. Shealtiel
became the father of Zerubbabel.
Mat 1:13 Zerubbabel
became the father of Abiud. Abiud became the father of Eliakim.
Eliakim became the father of Azor.
Mat 1:14 Azor became
the father of Sadoc. Sadoc became the father of Achim. Achim became
the father of Eliud.
Mat 1:15 Eliud became
the father of Eleazar. Eleazar became the father of Matthan. Matthan
became the father of Jacob.
Mat 1:16 Jacob became
the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus,
who is called Christ.
Mat 1:17 So all the
generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; from
David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the
carrying away to Babylon to the Christ, fourteen generations.
Mat 1:18 Now the birth
of Jesus Christ was like this; for after his mother, Mary, was
engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found pregnant
by the Holy Spirit.
Mat 1:19 Joseph, her
husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public
example, intended to put her away secretly.
Mat 1:20 But when he
thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to
him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, don't be afraid
to take to yourself Mary, your wife, for that which is conceived in
her is of the Holy Spirit.
Mat 1:21 She shall
bring forth a son. You shall call his name Jesus, for it is he who
shall save his people from their sins."
Mat 1:22 Now all this
has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord
through the prophet, saying,
Mat 1:23 "Behold,
the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son. They
shall call his name Immanuel;" which is, being interpreted, "God
with us."
Mat 1:24 Joseph arose
from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and
took his wife to himself;
Mat 1:25 and didn't
know her sexually until she had brought forth her firstborn son. He
named him Jesus.
