ܡܬܝ 4

1 ܗܝܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܬܕܒܪ ܡܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܠܡܕܒܪܐ ܕܢܬܢܤܐ ܡܢ ܐܟܠܩܪܨܐ

THEN was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

2 ܘܨܡ ܐܪܒܥܝܢ ܝܘܡܝܢ ܘܐܪܒܥܝܢ ܠܝܠܘܢ ܐܚܪܝܬ ܕܝܢ ܟܦܢ

And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.

3 ܘܩܪܒ ܗܘ ܕܡܢܤܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܢ ܒܪܗ ܐܢܬ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܡܪ ܕܗܠܝܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܢܗܘܝܢ ܠܚܡܐ

And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

4 ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܥܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܟܬܝܒ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܒܠܚܡܐ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܚܝܐ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܐܠܐ ܒܟܠ ܡܠܐ ܕܢܦܩܐ ܡܢ ܦܘܡܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ

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 ܗܝܕܝܢ ܕܒܪܗ ܐܟܠܩܪܨܐ ܠܡܕܝܢܬ ܩܘܕܫܐ ܘܐܩܝܡܗ ܥܠ ܟܢܦܐ ܕܗܝܟܠܐ

Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,

6 ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܢ ܒܪܗ ܐܢܬ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܫܕܝ ܢܦܫܟ ܠܬܚܬ ܟܬܝܒ ܓܝܪ ܕܠܡܠܐܟܘܗܝ ܢܦܩܕ ܥܠܝܟ ܘܥܠ ܐܝܕܝܗܘܢ ܢܫܩܠܘܢܟ ܕܠܐ ܬܬܩܠ ܒܟܐܦܐ ܪܓܠܟ

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 ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܬܘܒ ܟܬܝܒ ܕܠܐ ܬܢܤܐ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܟ

Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

8 ܬܘܒ ܕܒܪܗ ܐܟܠܩܪܨܐ ܠܛܘܪܐ ܕܛܒ ܪܡ ܘܚܘܝܗ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܘܫܘܒܚܗܝܢ

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 ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܠܟ ܐܬܠ ܐܢ ܬܦܠ ܬܤܓܘܕ ܠܝ

And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

10 ܗܝܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܙܠ ܠܟ ܤܛܢܐ ܟܬܝܒ ܓܝܪ ܕܠܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܟ ܬܤܓܘܕ ܘܠܗ ܒܠܚܘܕܘܗܝ ܬܦܠܘܚ

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 ܗܝܕܝܢ ܫܒܩܗ ܐܟܠܩܪܨܐ ܘܗܐ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܩܪܒܘ ܘܡܫܡܫܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ

Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

12 ܟܕ ܫܡܥ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܘܚܢܢ ܐܫܬܠܡ ܫܢܝ ܠܗ ܠܓܠܝܠܐ

Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee;

13 ܘܫܒܩܗ ܠܢܨܪܬ ܘܐܬܐ ܥܡܪ ܒܟܦܪܢܚܘܡ ܥܠ ܝܕ ܝܡܐ ܒܬܚܘܡܐ ܕܙܒܘܠܘܢ ܘܕܢܦܬܠܝ

And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:

14 ܕܢܬܡܠܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܬܐܡܪ ܒܝܕ ܐܫܥܝܐ ܢܒܝܐ ܕܐܡܪ

That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

15 ܐܪܥܐ ܕܙܒܘܠܘܢ ܐܪܥܐ ܕܢܦܬܠܝ ܐܘܪܚܐ ܕܝܡܐ ܥܒܪܘܗܝ ܕܝܘܪܕܢܢ ܓܠܝܠܐ ܕܥܡܡܐ

The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;

16 ܥܡܐ ܕܝܬܒ ܒܚܫܘܟܐ ܢܘܗܪܐ ܪܒܐ ܚܙܐ ܘܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܝܬܒܝܢ ܒܐܬܪܐ ܘܒܛܠܠܐ ܕܡܘܬܐ ܢܘܗܪܐ ܕܢܚ ܠܗܘܢ

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 ܡܢ ܗܝܕܝܢ ܫܪܝ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܡܟܪܙܘ ܘܠܡܐܡܪ ܬܘܒܘ ܩܪܒܬ ܠܗ ܓܝܪ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܫܡܝܐ

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

18 ܘܟܕ ܡܗܠܟ ܥܠ ܝܕ ܝܡܐ ܕܓܠܝܠܐ ܚܙܐ ܬܪܝܢ ܐܚܝܢ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܕܐܬܩܪܝ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܐܢܕܪܐܘܤ ܐܚܘܗܝ ܕܪܡܝܢ ܡܨܝܕܬܐ ܒܝܡܐ ܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܗܘܘ ܓܝܪ ܨܝܕܐ

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 ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܬܘ ܒܬܪܝ ܘܐܥܒܕܟܘܢ ܕܬܗܘܘܢ ܨܝܕܐ ܕܒܢܝ ܐܢܫܐ

And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.

20 ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܚܕܐ ܫܒܩܘ ܡܨܝܕܬܗܘܢ ܘܐܙܠܘ ܒܬܪܗ

And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

21 ܘܟܕ ܥܒܪ ܡܢ ܬܡܢ ܚܙܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܚܐ ܬܪܝܢ ܝܥܩܘܒ ܒܪ ܙܒܕܝ ܘܝܘܚܢܢ ܐܚܘܗܝ ܒܐܠܦܐ ܥܡ ܙܒܕܝ ܐܒܘܗܘܢ ܕܡܬܩܢܝܢ ܡܨܝܕܬܗܘܢ ܘܩܪܐ ܐܢܘܢ

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 ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܚܕܐ ܫܒܩܘ ܠܐܠܦܐ ܘܠܐܒܘܗܘܢ ܘܐܙܠܘ ܒܬܪܗ

And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.

23 ܘܡܬܟܪܟ ܗܘܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܟܠܗ ܓܠܝܠܐ ܘܡܠܦ ܗܘܐ ܒܟܢܘܫܬܗܘܢ ܘܡܟܪܙ ܤܒܪܬܐ ܕܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܘܡܐܤܐ ܟܠ ܟܐܒ ܘܟܘܪܗܢ ܒܥܡܐ

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 ܘܐܫܬܡܥ ܛܒܗ ܒܟܠܗ ܤܘܪܝܐ ܘܩܪܒܘ ܠܗ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܒܝܫ ܒܝܫ ܥܒܝܕܝܢ ܒܟܘܪܗܢܐ ܡܫܚܠܦܐ ܘܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܠܝܨܝܢ ܒܬܫܢܝܩܐ ܘܕܝܘܢܐ ܘܕܒܪ ܐܓܪܐ ܘܡܫܪܝܐ ܘܐܤܝ ܐܢܘܢ

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 ܘܐܙܠܘ ܒܬܪܗ ܟܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܢ ܓܠܝܠܐ ܘܡܢ ܥܤܪܬ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܘܡܢ ܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܘܡܢ ܝܗܘܕ ܘܡܢ ܥܒܪܐ ܕܝܘܪܕܢܢ

And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judæa, and from beyond Jordan.
