1 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. 2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. 3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. 4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. 5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, 6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

12 Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee; 13 And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim: 14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, 15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles; 16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

18 And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. 19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. 20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him. 21 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. 22 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.

23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people. 24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them. 25 And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.

1 Então foi conduzido Jesus pelo Espírito ao deserto, para ser tentado pelo Diabo.

2 E, tendo jejuado quarenta dias e quarenta noites, depois teve fome.

3 Chegando, então, o tentador, disse-lhe: Se tu és Filho de Deus manda que estas pedras se tornem em pães.

4 Mas Jesus lhe respondeu: Está escrito: Nem só de pão viverá o homem, mas de toda palavra que sai da boca de Deus.

5 Então o Diabo o levou à cidade santa, colocou-o sobre o pináculo do templo,

6 e disse-lhe: Se tu és Filho de Deus, lança-te daqui abaixo; porque está escrito: Aos seus anjos dará ordens a teu respeito; e: eles te susterão nas mãos, para que nunca tropeces em alguma pedra.

7 Replicou-lhe Jesus: Também está escrito: Não tentarás o Senhor teu Deus.

8 Novamente o Diabo o levou a um monte muito alto; e mostrou-lhe todos os reinos do mundo, e a glória deles;

9 e disse-lhe: Tudo isto te darei, se, prostrado, me adorares.

10 Então ordenou-lhe Jesus: Vai-te, Satanás; porque está escrito: Ao Senhor teu Deus adorarás, e só a ele servirás.

11 Então o Diabo o deixou; e eis que vieram os anjos e o serviram.

12 Ora, ouvindo Jesus que João fora entregue, retirou-se para a Galiléia;

13 e, deixando Nazaré, foi habitar em Cafarnaum, cidade marítima, nos confins de Zabulom e Naftali;

14 para que se cumprisse o que fora dito pelo profeta Isaías:

15 A terra de Zabulom e a terra de Naftali, o caminho do mar, além do Jordão, a Galiléia dos gentios,

16 o povo que estava sentado em trevas viu uma grande luz; sim, aos que estavam sentados na região da sombra da morte, a estes a luz raiou.

17 Desde então começou Jesus a pregar, e a dizer: Arrependei-vos, porque é chegado o reino dos céus.

18 E Jesus, andando ao longo do mar da Galiléia, viu dois irmãos - Simão, chamado Pedro, e seu irmão André, os quais lançavam a rede ao mar, porque eram pescadores.

19 Disse-lhes: Vinde após mim, e eu vos farei pescadores de homens.

20 Eles, pois, deixando imediatamente as redes, o seguiram.

21 E, passando mais adiante, viu outros dois irmãos - Tiago, filho de Zebedeu, e seu irmão João, no barco com seu pai Zebedeu, consertando as redes; e os chamou.

22 Estes, deixando imediatamente o barco e seu pai, seguiram-no.

23 E percorria Jesus toda a Galiléia, ensinando nas sinagogas, pregando o evangelho do reino, e curando todas as doenças e enfermidades entre o povo.

24 Assim a sua fama correu por toda a Síria; e trouxeram-lhe todos os que padeciam, acometidos de várias doenças e tormentos, os endemoninhados, os lunáticos, e os paralíticos; e ele os curou.

25 De sorte que o seguiam grandes multidões da Galiléia, de Decápolis, de Jerusalém, da Judéia, e dalém do Jordão.
