< Matthew 4 >
1 Then was Iesus led aside of the Spirit into the wildernes, to be tempted of the deuil.
Then, Jesus was led up into the wilderness, by the Spirit, to be tempted by the adversary;
2 And when he had fasted fourtie dayes, and fourtie nights, he was afterward hungrie.
and, fasting forty days and forty nights, —afterwards, he hungered.
3 Then came to him the tempter, and said, If thou be the Sonne of God, commande that these stones be made bread.
And, coming near, the tempter said to him, —If thou art God’s, Son, speak! that, these stones, may become, loaves.
4 But he answering said, It is written, Man shall not liue by bread onely, but by euery worde that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
But, he, answering, said, It is written, —Not on bread alone, shall man live, but on every declaration coming forth through the mouth of God.
5 Then the deuil tooke him vp into the holy Citie, and set him on a pinacle of the temple,
Then, the adversary taketh him with him, unto the holy city, —and he set him upon the pinnacle of the temple;
6 And said vnto him, If thou be the Sonne of God, cast thy selfe downe: for it is written, that he wil giue his Angels charge ouer thee, and with their hands they shall lift thee vp, lest at any time thou shouldest dash thy foote against a stone.
and saith to him—If thou art God’s, Son, cast thyself down, —for it is written, To his messengers, will he give charge concerning thee; and, on hands, will they bear thee up, lest once thou strike, against a stone, thy foot.
7 Iesus saide vnto him, It is written againe, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
Jesus said to him, Again, it is written, —Thou shalt not put to the test, the Lord thy God.
8 Againe the deuil tooke him vp into an exceeding hie mountaine, and shewed him all the kingdomes of the world, and the glory of them,
Again, the adversary taketh him with him, into an exceeding high mountain, —and pointeth out to him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory;
9 And sayd to him, All these will I giue thee, if thou wilt fall downe, and worship me.
and said to him, All these things, will I give thee, —if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
10 Then sayd Iesus vnto him, Auoyde Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him onely shalt thou serue.
Then saith Jesus unto him, Withdraw, Satan! for it is written, —The Lord thy God, shalt thou worship, and, to him alone, render divine service.
11 Then the deuill left him: and beholde, the Angels came, and ministred vnto him.
Then, the adversary leaveth him, —and lo! messengers came near, and began ministering unto him.
12 And when Iesus had heard that Iohn was committed to prison, he returned into Galile.
And, hearing that, John, had been delivered up, he retired into Galilee;
13 And leauing Nazareth, went and dwelt in Capernaum, which is neere the sea in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim,
and, forsaking Nazareth, he came and fixed his dwelling in Capernaum, which was by the lake, —within the bounds of Zebulun and Naphtali:
14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the Propet, saying,
that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying:
15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim by the way of the sea, beyond Iordan, Galile of the Gentiles:
Land of Zebulun, and land of Naphtali, the lake-way across the Jordan, —Galilee of the nations,
16 The people which sate in darkenes, sawe great light: and to them which sate in the region, and shadowe of death, light is risen vp.
The people that was sitting in darkness, a great light, beheld, —and, on them who were sitting in land and shade of death, Light rose on them.
17 From that time Iesus began to preach, and to say, Amende your liues: for the kingdome of heauen is at hand.
From that time, began Jesus to be making proclamation, and saying, —Repent ye, for the kingdom of the heavens hath drawn near.
18 And Iesus walking by the sea of Galile, sawe two brethren, Simon, which was called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea (for they were fishers.)
And, walking round beside the sea of Galilee, he saw two brethren—Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, —casting a large fishing-net into the sea, for they were fishers;
19 And he sayd vnto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.
and he saith unto them, Come after me, —and I will make you fishers, of men.
20 And they straightway leauing the nets, folowed him.
And, they, straightway, leaving the nets, followed him.
21 And when he was gone forth from thence, he saw other two brethren, Iames the sonne of Zebedeus, and Iohn his brother in a ship with Zebedeus their father, mending their nets, and he called them.
And, going forward from thence, he saw other two brethren—James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother—in the boat with Zebedee their father, putting in order their nets, —and he called them.
22 And they without tarying, leauing the ship, and their father, folowed him.
And, they, straightway, leaving the boat and their father, followed him.
23 So Iesus went about all Galile, teaching in their Synagogues, and preaching the Gospel of the kingdome, and healing euery sicknesse and euery disease among the people.
And Jesus was going round throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the glad-message of the kingdom, —and curing every disease, and every infirmity, among the people.
24 And his fame spread abroad through all Syria: and they brought vnto him all sicke people, that were taken with diuers diseases and torments, and them that were possessed with deuils, and those which were lunatike, and those that had the palsey: and he healed them.
And forth went the report of him into all Syria; and they brought unto him all who were sick, with divers diseases and tortures, distressed, demonized and lunatic and paralyzed, —and he cured them.
25 And there folowed him great multitudes out of Galile, and Decapolis, and Hierusalem, and Iudea, and from beyond Iordan.
And there followed him large multitudes—from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judaea, and across the Jordan.
