The beginning of the Good News of Yeshua Messiah [Salvation Anointed one], the Ben-Elohim ·Son of Elohim God·.
As it is written in the prophets, “Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you:
the voice of one crys out in the wilderness, ‘Make ready the way of MarYah [Master Yahweh]! Make his paths straight!’”
John [Yah is gracious] came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching the mikvah ·ritual washing baptism· of teshuvah ·complete repentance· for forgiveness of abstract sins ·miss the marks·.
5 ⲉ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲥⲃⲱⲕ ⲛⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϭⲓ ⲧⲉⲭⲱⲣⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲥ ⲛϯⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓⲁ ⲛⲙⲛⲁ ⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲥⲟⲗⲩⲙⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲁⲩϫⲓ ⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲙⲁ ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ ϩⲙ ⲡⲓⲟⲣⲇⲁⲛⲏⲥ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲟ ⲉⲩⲉⲝⲟⲙⲟⲗⲟⲅⲓ ⲛⲛⲉⲩⲛⲟⲃⲉ
All the country of Judea [Praise] and all those of Jerusalem [City of peace] went out to him. They were immersed by him in the Jordan [Descender] river, confessing their abstract sins ·miss the marks·.
John [Yah is gracious] was clothed with camel’s hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
7 ⲍ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲓϣ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϥⲛⲏⲩ ⲙⲛⲛⲥⲱⲉⲓ ⲛϭⲓ ⲡⲉⲧϫⲟⲟⲣ ⲉⲣⲟⲉⲓ ⲉⲁⲛⲅⲟⲩϩⲓⲕⲁⲛⲟⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲡⲁϩⲧ ⲉⲃⲱⲗ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲡⲙⲟⲩⲥ ⲙⲡⲉϥⲧⲟⲟⲩⲉ
He preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
I immersed you in water, but he will mikvah ·baptise· you in Ruach haKodesh [Spirit, Breath of the Holiness].”
9 ⲑ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲁϥⲉⲓ ⲛϭⲓ ⲓⲏⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲛⲁⲍⲁⲣⲉⲑ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲁⲓⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁϥϫⲓ ⲃⲁⲡⲧⲓⲥⲙⲁ ϩⲙ ⲡⲓⲟⲣⲇⲁⲛⲏⲥ ⲛⲧⲛⲓⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ
In those days, Yeshua [Salvation] came from Nazareth [Branch, Separated one] of Galilee [District, Circuit], and was immersed by John [Yah is gracious] in the Jordan [Descender].
Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and haRuach [the Spirit, Breath] descending on him like a dove.
A voice came out of the sky, “You are my agapetos ·beloved, esteemed· Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Immediately haRuach [the Spirit, Breath] drove him out into the wilderness.
13 ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥϩⲛ ⲧⲉⲣⲏⲙⲟⲥ ⲛϩⲙⲉ ⲛϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲥⲁⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥ ⲡⲉⲓⲣⲁⲍⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲉⲑⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲩⲇⲓⲁⲕⲟⲛⲓ ⲛⲁϥ
He was there in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan [Adversary]. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.
Now after John [Yah is gracious] was taken into custody, Yeshua [Salvation] came into Galilee [District, Circuit], preaching the Good News of God’s Kingdom,
and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and God’s Kingdom is at hand! Teshuvah ·Turn repent·, and trust in the Good News.”
16 ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϥⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲁⲧⲛⲧⲉⲑⲁⲗⲁⲥⲥⲁ ⲛⲧⲅⲁⲗⲓⲗⲁⲓⲁ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲛⲙⲁⲛⲇⲣⲉⲁⲥ ⲡⲥⲟⲛ ⲛⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩϫϣⲛⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲑⲁⲗⲁⲥⲥⲁ ⲛⲉϩⲉⲛⲟⲩⲱϩⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲉ
Passing along by the sea of Galilee [District, Circuit], he saw Simeon [Hearing] and Andrew [Manly] the brother of Simeon [Hearing] casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men.”
Immediately they left their nets, and followed him.
19 ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ⲉⲑⲏ ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲟⲩⲉⲓ ⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲓⲁⲕⲱⲃⲟⲥ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛⲍⲉⲃⲉⲇⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲛⲙⲓⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲩϩⲙⲡϫⲟⲉⲓ ⲉⲩⲥⲟⲃⲧⲉ ⲛⲛⲉⲩϣⲛⲏⲩ
Going on a little further from there, he saw James son of Zebedee [Surplanter son of Yah Has Bestowed], and John [Yah is gracious], his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
Immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee [Bestowed by Yah], in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
They went into Capernaum [Village-Comfort, Village-Compassion], and immediately on the Sabbath ·To cease· day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
22 ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲣϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ⲉϫⲛ ⲧⲉϥⲥⲃⲱ ⲉϥϯ ⲥⲃⲱ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲧⲟⲩϯ ⲥⲃⲱ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛⲉⲅⲣⲁⲙⲙⲁⲧⲉⲩⲥ ϩⲱⲥⲉⲩⲛⲧϥⲧⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ
They were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the Torah-Teachers.
Immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
24 ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁϩⲣⲟⲕ ⲛⲙⲙⲁⲛ ⲓⲏⲥ ⲡⲛⲁⲍⲱⲣⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲛⲧⲁⲕⲉⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲕⲟⲛ ϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙⲙⲟⲕ ϫⲉ ⲛⲧⲕⲛⲓⲙ ⲛⲧⲕⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ
saying, “Ha! What do we have to do with you, Yeshua [Salvation], you Nazarene [person from Branch, Separated one]? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: haKadosh Elohim [the Holy One of God]!”
Yeshua [Salvation] rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!”
The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲣ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲛⲥⲉϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲉⲓⲥ ⲟⲩⲥⲃⲱ ⲃⲃⲣⲣⲉ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲉⲝⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲛⲕⲉⲡⲛⲁ ⲛⲁⲕⲁⲑⲁⲣⲧⲟⲛ ϥⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲥⲉⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲛⲥⲱϥ
They were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him!”
The report of him went out immediately everywhere into all the region of Galilee [District, Circuit] and its surrounding area.
29 ⲕ̅ⲑ̅ ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲧⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲏⲉⲓ ⲛⲥⲓⲙⲱⲛ ⲙⲛⲁⲛⲇⲣⲉⲁⲥ ⲛⲙⲓⲁⲕⲱⲃⲟⲥ ⲛⲙⲓⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ
Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simeon [Hearing] and Andrew [Manly], with James [Surplanter] and John [Yah is gracious].
Now Simeon [Hearing]’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
He came and took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she served them.
At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick, and those who were possessed by demons.
All the city was gathered together at the door.
34 ⲗ̅ⲇ̅ ⲁϥⲑⲉⲣⲁⲡⲟⲩ ⲛⲟⲩⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲉⲩⲙⲟⲕϩ ⲛϣⲱⲛⲉ ⲉⲩϣⲟⲃⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲩⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲛⲇⲁⲓⲙⲱⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⲁϥⲛⲟϫⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲙⲁϥⲕⲁⲛⲇⲁⲓⲙⲱⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⲉϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲉⲩⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲙⲙⲟϥ
He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He didn’t allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.
Early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.
Simeon [Hearing] and those who were with him followed after him;
and they found him, and told him, “Everyone is looking for you.”
38 ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲛ ⲉⲕⲉⲙⲁ ⲉⲛⲕⲉⲧⲙⲙⲟ ⲉⲧϩⲏⲛ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲓⲉⲕⲏⲣⲩⲥⲥⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲧⲁⲓⲉⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲡⲉⲓϩⲱⲃ
He said to them, “Let’s go elsewhere into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason.”
He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee [District, Circuit], preaching and casting out demons.
A leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, “If you want to, you can make me clean.”
Being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, “I want to. Be made clean.”
When he had said this, immediately the tzara'at ·leprosy· departed from him, and he was made clean.
He strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,
44 ⲙ̅ⲇ̅ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ϭⲱϣⲧ ⲙⲡⲣϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲛⲅⲧⲥⲁⲃⲟⲕ ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲏⲏⲃ ⲛⲅϫⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲉⲕⲧⲃⲃⲟ ⲛⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲙⲱⲩⲥⲏⲥ ⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲙⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ
and said to him, “See you say nothing to anybody; instead, as a testimony to the people, go and let the priest examine you, and make an offer for your cleansing, as Moses [Drawn out] commanded.”
45 ⲙ̅ⲉ̅ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁϥⲁⲣⲭⲉⲥⲑⲁⲓ ⲛⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲓϣ ⲛϩⲁϩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲥⲣⲡϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲛϥⲧⲙϭⲙϭⲟⲙ ⲉⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲉϥϩⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲙⲁ ⲛϫⲁⲓⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ ⲙⲁ ⲛⲓⲙ
But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Yeshua [Salvation] could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.
