1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 When he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry afterward. 3 The tempter came and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread."

4 But he answered, "It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of God’s mouth.’"

5 Then the devil took him into the holy city. He set him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6 and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written,

‘He will command his angels concerning you,’ and,

‘On their hands they will bear you up,

so that you don’t dash your foot against a stone.’"

7 Jesus said to him, "Again, it is written, ‘You shall not test the Lord, your God.’"

8 Again, the devil took him to an exceedingly high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 He said to him, "I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me."

10 Then Jesus said to him, "Get behind me, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.’"

11 Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and served him.

12 Now when Jesus heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee. 13 Leaving Nazareth, he came and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali, 14 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,

15 "The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,

toward the sea, beyond the Jordan,

Galilee of the Gentiles,

16 the people who sat in darkness saw a great light;

to those who sat in the region and shadow of death,

to them light has dawned."

17 From that time, Jesus began to preach, and to say, "Repent! For the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand."

18 Walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers: Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew, his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. 19 He said to them, "Come after me, and I will make you fishers for men."

20 They immediately left their nets and followed him. 21 Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them. 22 They immediately left the boat and their father, and followed him.

23 Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people. 24 The report about him went out into all Syria. They brought to him all who were sick, afflicted with various diseases and torments, possessed with demons, epileptics, and paralytics; and he healed them. 25 Great multitudes from Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and from beyond the Jordan followed him.

1 Siis Vaim viis Jeesuse kõrbe kuradi kiusata.

2 Ja kui Ta oli paastunud nelikümmend päeva ja nelikümmend ööd, tuli Temale viimaks nälg kätte.

3 Ja kiusaja tuli Ta juure ning ütles Temale: „Kui Sa oled Jumala Poeg, siis ütle, et need kivid leivuks saaksid!"

4 Aga Tema vastas ning ütles: „Kirjutatud on: Inimene ei ela ükspäinis leivast, vaid igaühest sõnast, mis lähtub Jumala suust!"

5 Siis kurat võttis Tema enesega pühasse linna ja asetas Ta pühakoja harjale

6 ja ütles Temale: „Oled Sa Jumala Poeg, siis kukuta Ennast alla, sest kirjutatud on: Tema annab Oma Inglitele käsu Sinu pärast, ja Nemad kannavad Sind kätel, et Sa Oma jalga vastu kivi ei tõukaks!"

7 Jeesus ütles temale: „Taas on kirjutatud: Ära kiusa Issandat, Oma Jumalat!"

8 Jällegi võttis kurat Ta Enesega väga kõrgele mäele ja näitas Talle kõik maailma kuningriigid ja nende hiilguse

9 ning ütles Temale: „Selle kõik Ma annan Sinule, kui Sa maha langed ja mind kummardad!"

10 Siis Jeesus ütles temale: „Tagane Minust, saatan! Sest on kirjutatud: Sina pead Issandat, Oma Jumalat kummardama ja ükspäinis Teda teenima!"

11 Siis kurat jättis Ta rahule. Ja vaata, Ingleid tuli Tema juure, ja Need teenisid Teda.

12

13 Ja jättes maha Naatsareti tuli Ta ja asus Kapernauma, mis on mererannas Sebuloni ja Naftali aladel, 14. et läheks täide, mis on üteldud prohvet Jesaja kaudu:

14

15 „Sebulonimaa ja Naftalimaa; mereäärne tee, maa sealpool Jordanit, paganate Galilea –

16 rahvas, kes istub pimeduses, näeb suurt valgust, ja surma maal ja varjus istujaile, neile tõuseb valgus!"

17

18

19 Ja Ta ütles neile: „Tulge minu järele ja Ma teen teid inimeste püüdjaiks! 20. Nemad jätsid kohe võrgud maha ning järgisid Teda. 21. Ja kui Ta läks sealt eemale, nägi Ta teist kaht venda, Jakoobust, Sebedeuse poega, ja Johannest, ta venda, paadis ühes nende isa Sebedeusega parandamas oma võrke. Ja Ta kutsus neid.

20

21

22 Ja nad jätsid kohe maha paadi ja oma isa ning järgisid Teda.

23

24 Ja jutt Temast levis üle kogu Süüria. Ja Tema juure toodi kõik vaevalised, mõnesuguse haiguse ja tõve põdejad, seestunud, kuutõbised ja halvatud. Ja Ta tegi nad terveks.

25 Ja palju rahvast järgis Teda Galileast ja Dekapolist ja Jeruusalemast ja Judeast ja sealtpoolt Jordanit.
