beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,
004:016 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."{Isaiah 9:1-2}
004:017 From that time, Jesus began to preach, and to say, "Repent! For the
Kingdom of Heaven is at hand."
004:018 Walking by the sea of Galilee, he{TR reads "Jesus"
instead of "he"} saw two brothers: Simon, who is called Peter,
and Andrew, his brother, casting a net into the sea;
for they were fishermen.
004:019 He said to them, "Come after me, and I will make you
fishers for men."
004:020 They immediately left their nets and followed him.
004:021 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.
004:022 They immediately left the boat and their father, and followed him.
004:023 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.
004:024 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.
004:025 Great multitudes from Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea and
from beyond the Jordan followed him.
005:001 Seeing the multitudes, he went up onto the mountain.
When he had sat down, his disciples came to him.
005:002 He opened his mouth and taught them, saying,
005:003 "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom
of Heaven.{Isaiah 57:15; 66:2}
005:004 Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.{Isaiah 61:2;
66:10,13}
005:005 Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.{or, land.
Psalm 37:11}
005:006 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness,
for they shall be filled.
005:007 Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
005:008 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
005:009 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called
children of God.
005:010 Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness'
sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
005:011 "Blessed are you when people reproach you, persecute you,
and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
005:012 Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven.
For that is how they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
005:013 "You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt has lost its flavor,
with what will it be salted? It is then good for nothing,
but to be cast out and trodden under the feet of men.
005:014 You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill
