Matthew 1:17-19
American Standard Version
17 So all the generations from Abraham unto David are fourteen generations; and from David unto the [a]carrying away to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the [b]carrying away to Babylon unto the Christ fourteen generations.
18 Now the [c]birth [d]of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. 19 And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.
