THEN Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness, to be tempted by the Devil. (2)And having fasted forty days and forty nights, he afterwards hungered. (3)And coming to him, the tempter said: If thou art the Son of God, command that these stones become loaves of bread. (4)But he answering said: It is written, Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God. (5)Then the Devil takes him into the holy city, and sets him on the pinnacle of the temple, (6)and says to him: If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down; for it is written: He will give his angels command concerning thee; And on their hands they will bear thee up, Lest haply thou dash thy foot against a stone. (7)Jesus said to him: Again it is written, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. (8)Again the Devil takes him into an exceedingly high mountain, and shows him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; (9)and says to him: All these things I will give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. (10)Then Jesus says to 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 leaves him; and behold, angels came and ministered to him. (12)And hearing that John was delivered up, he retired into Galilee. (13)And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the borders 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, By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles, (16)The people that sat in darkness, saw great light, And to those sitting in the region and shadow of death light sprang up. (17)From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say: Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. (18)And walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. (19)And he says to them: Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men. (20)And they, immediately leaving the nets, followed him. (21)And going on from thence, he saw other two brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. (22)And they, immediately leaving the ship and their father, followed him. (23)And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every infirmity among the people. (24)And his fame went forth into all Syria; and they brought to him all that were sick, taken with divers diseases and torments, and possessed with demons, and lunatic, and palsied; and he healed them. (25)And great multitudes followed him from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judaea, and from beyond the Jordan. V.
