1 The first words of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 Even as it is said in the book of Isaiah the prophet, See, I send my servant before your face, who will make ready your way;
3 The voice of one crying in the waste land, Make ready the way of the Lord, make his roads straight;
4 John came, and gave baptism in the waste land, preaching baptism as a sign of forgiveness of sin for those whose hearts were changed.
5 And there went out to him all the people of Judaea, and all those of Jerusalem, and they were given baptism by him in the river Jordan, saying that they were sinners.
6 And John was clothed in camel's hair, with a leather band about him; and his food was locusts and honey.
7 And he said to them all, There is one coming after me who is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to undo.
8 I have given you baptism with water, but he will give you baptism with the Holy Spirit.
9 And it came about in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was given baptism by John in the Jordan.
10 And straight away, coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens broken open and the Spirit coming down on him as a dove:
11 And a voice came out of heaven, You are my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased.
12 And straight away the Spirit sent him out into the waste land.
13 And he was in the waste land for forty days, being tested by Satan; and he was with the beasts; and the angels took care of him.
14 Now after John had been put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the good news of God,
15 And saying, The time has come, and the kingdom of God is near: let your hearts be turned from sin and have faith in the good news.
16 And going by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew, the brother of Simon, putting a net into the sea: for they were fishermen.
17 And Jesus said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.
18 And they went straight from their nets, and came after him.
19 And going on a little farther, he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were in their boat stitching up their nets.
20 And he said, Come after me: and they went away from their father Zebedee, who was in the boat with the servants, and came after him.
21 And they came to Capernaum; and on the Sabbath he went into the Synagogue and gave teaching.
22 And they were full of wonder at his teaching, because he gave it as one having authority, and not like the scribes.
23 And there was in their Synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he gave a cry,
24 Saying, What have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? have you come to put an end to us? I see well who you are, the Holy One of God.
25 And Jesus said to him sharply, Be quiet, and come out of him.
26 And the unclean spirit, shaking him violently, and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 And they were all greatly surprised, so that they put questions to one another, saying, What is this? a new teaching! with authority he gives orders even to the unclean spirits, and they do what he says.
28 And news of him went out quickly everywhere into all parts of Galilee round about.
29 And when they came out of the Synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Now Simon's wife's mother was ill, with a burning heat; and they gave him word of her:
31 And he came and took her by the hand, lifting her up; and she became well, and took care of their needs.
32 And in the evening, at sundown, they took to him all who were diseased, and those who had evil spirits.
33 And all the town had come together at the door.
34 And a number, who were ill with different diseases, he made well, and sent out evil spirits; but he did not let the evil spirits say anything, because they had knowledge of him.
35 And in the morning, a long time before daylight, he got up and went out to a quiet place, and there he gave himself up to prayer.
36 And Simon and those who were with him came after him.
37 And when they came up with him, they said to him, Everyone is looking for you.
38 And he said to them, Let us go to other parts into the nearest towns, so that I may give teaching there, because for this purpose I came.
39 And he went into their Synagogues in every part of Galilee, preaching and driving out evil spirits.
40 And a leper came to him and, going down on his knees before him, made a request, saying, If it is your pleasure, you have the power to make me clean.
41 And being moved with pity, he put out his hand, and touching him said to him, It is my pleasure; be made clean.
42 And straight away the disease went from him, and he was made clean.
43 And he sent him away, saying to him very sharply,
44 See that you say nothing to any man: but go and let the priest see you, and make yourself clean by an offering of the things ordered by Moses, for a witness to them.
45 But he went out, and made it public, giving an account of it everywhere, so that Jesus was no longer able to go openly into a town, but was outside in the waste land; and they came to him from every part.
1 Počátek evangelium Ježíše Krista, Syna Božího;
2 Jakož psáno jest v Prorocích: Aj, já posílám anděla svého před tváří tvou, kterýž připraví cestu tvou před tebou.
3 Hlas volajícího na poušti: Připravujte cestu Páně, přímé čiňte stezky jeho.
4 Křtil Jan na poušti a kázal křest pokání na odpuštění hříchů.
5 I vycházeli k němu ze vší krajiny Židovské i Jeruzalémští, a křtili se od něho všickni v Jordáně řece, vyznávajíce hříchy své.
6 Byl pak Jan odín srstmi velbloudovými, a pás kožený na bedrách jeho, a jídal kobylky a med lesní.
7 A kázal, řka: Za mnou jde silnější mne, kteréhožto nejsem hoden, sehna se, rozvázati řeménka u obuvi jeho.
8 Já zajisté křtil jsem vás vodou, ale onť vás křtíti bude Duchem svatým.
9 I stalo se v těch dnech, přišel Ježíš z Nazarétu Galilejského, a pokřtěn jest v Jordáně od Jana.
10 A hned vystoupě z vody, uzřel nebesa otevřená a Ducha jakožto holubici, sstupujícího na něj.
11 A hlas stal se s nebe: Ty jsi ten můj milý Syn, v němž mi se dobře zalíbilo.
12 A ihned ho Duch vypudil na poušť.
13 I byl tam na poušti čtyřidceti dnů, a pokoušín byl od satana; a byl s zvěří, a andělé přisluhovali jemu.
14 Když pak byl vsazen Jan do žaláře, přišel Ježíš do Galilee, zvěstuje evangelium království Božího,
15 Pravě: Že se naplnil čas, a přiblížilo se království Boží. Čiňte pokání, a věřte evangelium.
16 A chodě podle moře Galilejského, uzřel Šimona a Ondřeje bratra jeho, ani pouštějí síti do moře, nebo rybáři byli.
17 I řekl jim Ježíš: Pojďte za mnou, a učiním vás rybáře lidí.
18 A oni hned opustivše síti své, šli za ním.
19 A pošed odtud maličko, uzřel Jakuba Zebedeova, a Jana bratra jeho, kteříž také byli na lodí tvrdíce síti své;
20 A hned povolal jich. A oni opustivše otce svého Zebedea na lodí s pacholky, šli za ním.
21 I vešli do Kafarnaum. A hned v sobotu šel Ježíš do školy, a učil.
22 I divili se náramně učení jeho; nebo učil je, jako moc maje, a ne jako zákoníci.
23 I byl v škole jejich člověk, posedlý duchem nečistým. I zvolal,
24 Řka: Ale což jest tobě do nás, Ježíši Nazaretský? Přišel jsi zatratiti nás; znám tě, kdo jsi, a vím, že jsi ten svatý Boží.
25 I přimluvil mu Ježíš, řka: Umlkniž a vyjdi z něho.
26 I polomcovav jím duch nečistý a křiče hlasem velikým, vyšel z něho.
27 I lekli se všickni, takže se tázali mezi sebou, řkouce: I co jest toto? Jakéž jest toto nové učení, že tento mocně duchům nečistým rozkazuje, a poslouchají ho?
28 I roznesla se pověst o něm hned po vší krajině Galilejské.
29 A hned vyšedše ze školy, přišli do domu Šimonova a Ondřejova s Jakubem a s Janem.
30 Šimonova pak svegruše ležela, majíc zimnici. A hned jemu pověděli o ní.
31 A přistoupiv, pozdvihl jí, ujav ji za ruku její, a hned přestala jí zimnice. I posluhovala jim.
32 Večer pak již při západu slunce, nosili k němu všecky nemocné i ďábelníky.
33 A bylo se všecko město sběhlo ke dveřům.
34 I uzdravoval mnohé ztrápené rozličnými neduhy, a ďábelství mnohá vymítal, a nedopustil mluviti ďáblům; nebo znali ho.
35 A přede dnem velmi ráno vstav Ježíš, vyšel, a šel na pusté místo, a tam se modlil.
36 I šel za ním Šimon i ti, kteříž s ním byli.
37 A když jej nalezli, řekli jemu: Všickni tě hledají.
38 I dí jim: Pojďmež do okolních městeček, abych i tam kázal. Nebo na to jsem přišel.
39 I kázal v školách jejich ve vší Galileji, a ďábelství vymítal.
40 Tedy přišel k němu malomocný, prose ho, a klekna před ním, řekl jemu: Pane, chceš-li, můžeš mne očistiti.
41 Ježíš pak slitovav se, vztáhl ruku, dotekl se ho a řekl jemu: Chci, buď čist.
42 A když to řekl, hned odstoupilo od něho malomocenství, a očištěn jest.
43 I pohroziv mu, hned ho odbyl,
44 A řekl mu: Viziž, abys nižádnému nic nepravil. Ale jdi, ukaž se knězi, a obětuj za očištění své to, což přikázal Mojžíš, na svědectví jim.
45 On pak vyšed, počal vypravovati mnoho a ohlašovati tu věc, takže již nemohl Ježíš do města zjevně vjíti, ale vně na místech pustých byl. I scházeli se k němu odevšad.
