< Luke 4 >
1 Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
BUT Jeshu, being full of the Spirit of Holiness, returned from the Jurdan, and the Spirit led him into the desert,
2 where for forty days He was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and when they had ended, He was hungry.
to be tempted forty days by the accuser. And he ate nothing in those days; and when they were fulfilled, afterwards he hungered.
3 The devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”
And the accuser said to him, If thou art the Son of Aloha, tell this stone to become bread.
4 But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’”
Jeshu answered and said to him, It is written, It is not by bread alone that the son of man liveth, but by every word of Aloha.
5 Then the devil led Him up to a high place and showed Him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world.
And Satana carried him up into a high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the earth in a little time.
6 “I will give You authority over all these kingdoms and all their glory,” he said. “For it has been relinquished to me, and I can give it to anyone I wish.
And the accuser said to him, To thee will I give all this power and the glory of it, which to me is delivered; and to whomsoever that I will, I give it unto him.
7 So if You worship me, it will all be Yours.”
If therefore thou wilt worship before me, thine shall be all.
8 But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.’”
But Jeshu answered and said to him, It is written, That the Lord thy Aloha thou shalt worship, and him only shalt thou serve.
9 Then the devil led Him to Jerusalem and set Him on the pinnacle of the temple. “If You are the Son of God,” he said, “throw Yourself down from here.
And he caused him to be at Urishlem, and to stand on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, If thou art the Son of Aloha, throw thyself from hence beneath:
10 For it is written: ‘He will command His angels concerning You to guard You carefully;
for it is written, His angels he shall charge concerning thee to keep thee,
11 and they will lift You up in their hands, so that You will not strike Your foot against a stone.’”
and upon their arms to bear thee up, that thou strike not thy foot against a stone.
12 But Jesus answered, “It also says, ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”
But Jeshu answered and said to him, It is spoken, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy Aloha.
13 When the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.
And when the accuser had accomplished all his temptations, he removed from him for a time.
14 Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and the news about Him spread throughout the surrounding region.
AND Jeshu returned in the power of the Spirit into Galila, and there went forth a report concerning him in all the region about them,
15 He taught in their synagogues and was glorified by everyone.
and he taught in their assemblies, and was glorified of every one.
16 Then Jesus came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. As was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath. And when He stood up to read,
And he came to Natsrath where he had grown up; and he went out, as his custom was, into the synagogue on the day of shabath, and he stood up to read.
17 the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. Unrolling it, He found the place where it was written:
And there was given to him the book of Eshaia the prophet, and Jeshu opened the book and found the place where it is written,
18 “The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because He has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to release the oppressed,
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, Because he hath anointed me to evangelize to the poor, And hath sent me to heal the contrite in heart, To proclaim to the captives release, And to the blind, vision, And to assure the contrite by remission,
19 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
And to proclaim the year of acceptance of the Lord.
20 Then He rolled up the scroll, returned it to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fixed on Him,
And he rolled the book, and gave it to the minister, and went and sat down; but the eyes of all them in the synagogue beheld him.
21 and He began by saying, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”
And he began to say to them, Today is fulfilled this scripture which is in your ears.
22 All spoke well of Him and marveled at the gracious words that came from His lips. “Isn’t this the son of Joseph?” they asked.
And all witnessed him and wondered at the words of grace which proceeded from his mouth. And they said, Is not this the son of Jauseph?
23 Jesus said to them, “Surely you will quote this proverb to Me: ‘Physician, heal yourself! Do here in Your hometown what we have heard that You did in Capernaum.’”
Jeshu said to them, You will perhaps say to me this proverb, Physician, heal thyself; and all that we have heard that you have done in Kapher-nachum do also here in your own city.
24 Then He added, “Truly I tell you, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.
But he said, I tell you assuredly, There is no prophet who is received in his (own) city.
25 But I tell you truthfully that there were many widows in Israel in the time of Elijah, when the sky was shut for three and a half years and great famine swept over all the land.
For I say to you the truth, that many widows were in the house of Isroel in the days of Elia the prophet, when the heavens were shut up for three years and six months, and great famine was in all the land;
26 Yet Elijah was not sent to any of them, but to the widow of Zarephath in Sidon.
and to none of them was Elia sent, but to Sarephath of Tsaidon, unto a woman a widow:
27 And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet. Yet not one of them was cleansed—only Naaman the Syrian.”
and many lepers were in the house of Israel, in the days of Elisha the prophet, and not one of them was cleansed only Namon the Aramian.
28 On hearing this, all the people in the synagogue were enraged.
And when they heard these things, they who were in the synagogue were all of them filled with anger,
29 They got up, drove Him out of the town, and led Him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw Him over the cliff.
and they arose, forced him without from the city, and brought him to the brow of the hill on which their city was built to throw him from the rock:
30 But Jesus passed through the crowd and went on His way.
but he passed through them and went.
31 Then He went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and on the Sabbath He began to teach the people.
AND he went down to Kapher-nachum, a city of Galila, and instructed them on the shabath.
32 They were astonished at His teaching, because His message had authority.
And they were astonished at his doctrine, for with power was his word.
33 In the synagogue there was a man possessed by the spirit of an unclean demon. He cried out in a loud voice,
And there was in the synagogue a man who had the spirit of an unclean devil, and he cried with a high voice,
34 “Ha! What do You want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”
and said, Leave me, what to us and to thee, Jeshu Natsroia? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of Aloha.
35 But Jesus rebuked the demon. “Be silent!” He said. “Come out of him!” At this, the demon threw the man down before them all and came out without harming him.
And Jeshu rebuked him, and said, Close thy mouth, and come forth from him. And the devil cast him down in the midst, and came forth from him, and hurt him not any thing.
36 All the people were overcome with amazement and asked one another, “What is this message? With authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!”
And wonder seized on every man, and they spake with each other and said, What thing is this? for with authority and with power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they go forth.
37 And the news about Jesus spread throughout the surrounding region.
And there went out the fame concerning him into all the region which surrounded them.
38 After Jesus had left the synagogue, He went to the home of Simon, whose mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever. So they appealed to Jesus on her behalf,
And when Jeshu had gone forth from the synagogue, he entered into the house of Shemun; and the mother-in-law of Shemun was afflicted with a great fever, and they besought him on behalf of her;
39 and He stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her. And she got up at once and began to serve them.
and he stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her, and she rose up at once and ministered to them.
40 At sunset, all who were ill with various diseases were brought to Jesus, and laying His hands on each one, He healed them.
But at the setting of the sun all they who had diseased ones, who were diseased with various diseases, brought them to him, and he upon every one of them laid his hand, and healed them.
41 Demons also came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!” But He rebuked the demons and would not allow them to speak, because they knew He was the Christ.
And he cast forth also devils from many, (they) crying out, and saying, Thou art the Meshicha, the Son of Aloha. And he rebuked them, and suffered them not to speak, for they knew that he was the Meshicha.
42 At daybreak, Jesus went out to a solitary place, and the crowds were looking for Him. They came to Him and tried to keep Him from leaving.
And at the dawn of day he departed, and went to a desert place; and the people sought him, and came to him, and held him, that he should not go from them:
43 But Jesus told them, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well, because that is why I was sent.”
but Jeshu said to them, To other cities also must I go to announce the kingdom of Aloha, for concerning this I have been sent.
44 And He continued to preach in the synagogues of Judea.
And he preached in the synagogues of Galila.
