1 Then Yeshua 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 Yeshua 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 Yeshua 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 Yeshua heard that Yochanan 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, Yeshua began to proclaim, 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, Jacob the son of Zebedee, and Yochanan 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 Yeshua went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming 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 Then was Jesus conducted by the Spirit into the wilderness, to be tempted by the devil.2 And after fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry.3 Then the tempter accosting him, said, If thou be God's Son, command that these stones become loaves.4 «Jesus answering, said, It is written,'Man lives not by bread only, but by everything which God is pleased to appoint.'»5 Then the devil conveyed him into the holy city, and having placed him on the battlement of the temple,6 «said to him, If thou be God's Son, throw thyself down; for it is written,» 'He will give his angels the charge of thee: they shall uphold thee in their arms, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.'7 «Jesus again answered, It is written,'Thou shalt not put the Lord thy God to the proof.'»8 Again the devil took him up a very high mountain, whence he showed him all the kingdoms of the world in their glory,9 and said to him, All these will I give thee, if thou wilt prostrate thyself, and worship me.10 «Jesus answered, Satan, begone; for it is written,'Thou shalt worship the Lord they God, and shall serve him only.'»11 Then the devil leaving him, angels came and ministered to him.12 Now Jesus, hearing that John was imprisoned, retired into Galilee,13 and having left Nazareth, resided at Capernaum, a seaport in the confines of Zebulun and Naphtali,14 thereby verifying the words of Isaiah the Prophet;15 «The canton of Zebulun and the canton of Naphtali, situate on the Jordan near the sea, Galilee of the nations;»16 the people who abode in darkness, saw a great light, and on those who inhabited a region of the shades of death, light has arisen.17 From that time Jesus began to proclaim, saying, Reform, for the Reign of Heaven approaches.18 Then walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon named Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a drag into the sea, for they were fishers.19 And he said to them, Come with me, and I will make you fishers of men.20 Immediately they left the nets and followed him.21 Passing on he saw other two brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, in the bark with their father Zebedee, mending their nets, and he called them.22 They immediately, leaving the bark and their father, followed him.23 Then Jesus went over all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the glad tidings of the Reign, and curing every sort of disease and malady among the people.24 And his fame spread through all Syria, and they brought him all their sick, seized and tormented with various distempers, demoniacs, and lunatics, and paralytics, and he healed them.25 And vast multitudes followed him from Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and from the banks of the Jordan.
