< Mateo 4 >
1 Orduan Iesus eraman cedin Spirituaz desertura, deabruaz tenta ledinçát.
Then Jesus was led by the Spirit {[God’s] Spirit led Jesus} into a desolate area to be tempted by the devil {in order that the devil would tempt him}.
2 Eta barurtu cituenean berroguey egun eta berroguey gau, finean gosse cedin.
After he did not eat food for 40 days, and 40 nights. he was hungry.
3 Eta ethorriric harengana tentaçaleac erran ceçan, Baldin Iaincoaren Semea bahaiz, errac harri hauc ogui eguin ditecen.
[Satan], the tempter, came to him and said, “Because you [claim that you have a relationship with] God [as] a son [has with his father] [MET], [prove it] by commanding these stones to become bread [so that you can eat them]!”
4 Baina harc ihardesten çuela erran ceçan, Scribatua duc, Ezta guiçona ogui beretic vicico, baina Iaincoaren ahotic ilkiten den hitz orotaric.
But Jesus said [to him], “[No! I will not change stones into bread, because] it is written [in the Scriptures] {in the Scriptures [Moses] wrote}, [‘Eating] food [SYN] [sustains] people [physically, but] it does not sustain them [spiritually] [SYN]. Instead, [paying attention to] everything that God has spoken [to them is what sustains people spiritually].’”
5 Orduan hura du eramaiten deabruac Ciuitate saindura, eta du eçarten templeco pinacle gainean.
Then the devil took Jesus to [Jerusalem], the city that is dedicated to God. He set him on the highest part of the Temple,
6 Eta diotsó, Baldin Iaincoaren Semea bahaiz, egotzac eure buruä beherera: ecen scribatua duc, Ecen cargu emanen drauèla hiçaz bere Aingueruèy, eta bere escuetan eramanen autela, eure oinaz harrian behaztopa ezadinçát.
and said to him, “Because you [claim that you have a relationship with] God [as] a son [has with his father, prove it by] jumping down [to the ground. You will not be hurt], because it is written [in the Scriptures], [‘God] will command his angels to protect you. They will lift you up in their hands [when you are falling], in order that [you will not get hurt]. You will not [even] strike your foot on a stone.’”
7 Erran cieçon Iesusec, Berriz scribatua duc, Eztuc tentaturen eure Iainco Iauna.
But Jesus said, “[No! I] will not [jump down, because] in another place [in the Scriptures] it is written {there are these words that [Moses] wrote}: ‘Do not [try to] test the Lord your God [to see if he will prevent something bad from happening to you when you do something foolish!]’”
8 Berriz hura du eramaiten deabruac gucizco mendi gora batetara, eta eracusten drautza munduco resuma guciac eta hetaco gloriá:
Then the devil took him on [top of] a very high mountain. There he showed him all the nations in the world and the magnificent things in those nations.
9 Eta diotsó, Hauc gucioc emanen drauzquiat, baldin ahozpez adora baneçac.
And then he said to him, “I will [let you rule all these nations and] give you the magnificent things in them if you bow down and worship me.”
10 Orduan diotsó Iesusec, Habil Satan, ecen scribatua duc: Eure Iainco Iauna adoraturen duc, eta hura bera cerbitzaturen duc.
But Jesus said to him, “[No, I will not worship you], Satan, [so] go away! It is written in the Scriptures, ‘It is the Lord your God whom you [(pl)] must worship, and you [(pl)] must serve only him!’”
11 Orduan vtziten du hura deabruac: eta huná, Aingueruäc ethor citecen, eta cerbitzatzen çuten hura.
Then the devil went away, and right away, angels came to Jesus and took care of him.
12 Eta ençun vkan çuenean Iesusec, ecen Ioannes presonér cela, retira cedin Galileara.
[While] Jesus [was in Judea, John the Baptizer’s disciples] told him that John had been put in prison and kept there {that [Herod Antipas] had put John [the Baptizer] in prison [and kept him there]}. [So] Jesus returned to Galilee [District]. While he was in Galilee, he first went to Nazareth [town].
13 Eta vtziric Nazareth, ethor cedin eta habita Capernaum itsas aldecoan, Zabulongo eta Nephthalingo bazterretan:
Then he left Nazareth and went to Capernaum [city in order to live there. Capernaum is located beside Galilee Lake in the region which was formerly] the regions of [the tribes of] Zebulun and Naphtali.
14 Compli ledinçát Esaias Prophetáz erran içan cena, cioela,
[One reason that he went there] was so that [these words] that were written by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled {so that he might fulfill these words that the prophet Isaiah wrote}:
15 Zabulongo lurrá eta Nephtalingo lurrá itsassorraco bide aldean Iordanaz berce aldetic, Gentilén Galileá:
“Zebulun region and Naphtali region [are on] the road [which is] near Galilee [Lake and] on the eastern side of the Jordan [River. They are] the regions in Galilee [District where many] non-Jews [are living].
16 Populu ilhumbean cetzanac argui handi ikussi vkan du: eta herioaren regionean eta itzalean ceunçaney argui altchatu içan çaye.
[Although the people there will be like] people who sit in a dark place [MET], [they will suddenly perceive clearly a new teaching, as] people who have seen a big light shining on them [MET] perceive everything clearly. [The] people who are located in a dangerous [MET] region [will suddenly perceive clearly what God teaches], as people on whom a light shines perceive things clearly [MET, DOU].
17 Orduan-danic has cedin Iesus predicatzen, eta erraiten, Emenda çaitezte: ecen hurbil da ceruètaco resumá.
From that time, [while] Jesus was [in Capernaum city, he began to preach this to people: “God [MTY/EUP] will very soon begin to rule, and he will judge you when he rules]. So you [(pl)] need to turn from your sinful ways [so that God will not punish you].”
18 Eta Iesusec Galileaco itsas aldean çabilala, ikus citzan bi anaye, Simon, Pierris erraiten dena, eta Andriu haren anayea, egoizten çutela sarea itsassora (ecen pescadore ciraden.)
[One day] while Jesus was walking by Galilee Lake, he saw two men, Simon, who was [later] called Peter, and Andrew, his [younger] brother. They were casting their [fishing] net into the lake because they [earned money by] catching [and selling] fish.
19 Eta dioste, Çatozte ene ondoan, eta eguinen çaituztet guiça pescadore.
He said to them, “[Just like you have been] gathering fish, come with me and I will teach you how to gather people [to become my disciples].” [MET]
20 Eta hec bertan vtziric sareac iarreiqui içan çaizcan.
They immediately left [the work that they were doing with] their [fishing] nets, and they went with him.
21 Eta handic aitzinago iraganic, ikus citzan berceric bi anaye, Iaques Zebedeoren semea, eta Ioannes haren anayea, vnci batetan bere aita Zebedeorequin, bere sarén adobatzen ari ciradela: eta dei citzan.
As [the three of them] walked on from there, Jesus saw two other men, James, and John, the [younger] brother of James. [They were] in their boat with Zebedee, their father, mending their [fishing] nets. Jesus told them that [they should leave their work and] go with him.
22 Eta hec bertan vncia eta bere aita vtziric iarreiqui içan çaizcan.
They immediately left their fishing boat and their father, and they went with Jesus.
23 Eta inguratzen çuen Galilea gucia Iesusec, hayén synagoguetan iracasten ari cela, eta resumaco Euangelioa predicatzen çuela, eta sendatzen çuela eritassun mota gucia, eta langore mota gucia populuaren artean.
Jesus went [with those four men] throughout all of Galilee [District]. He was teaching [the people] in the buildings where we Jews worship God. He was preaching the good message that tells how to become members of the group of people whose lives God rules over. He was also healing all [the Galileans] who had diseases or who were sick.
24 Orduan io ceçan haren famác Syria gucia: eta presenta cietzoten gaizqui ceuden guciac, eritassun diuersez eta tormentaz eduquiac, eta demoniatuac, eta lunaticoac, eta paralyticoac: eta sendatzen cituen.
When people who lived in other parts of Syria [District] heard [PRS] what he was doing, they brought to him people who suffered from illnesses, people who suffered from many kinds of diseases, people who [suffered from] severe pains, people who were controlled by demons {whom demons controlled}, people who were epileptics, and people who were paralyzed. And Jesus healed them all.
25 Eta gendetze handi iarreiqui cequión Galileatic, eta Decapolistic, eta Ierusalemetic, eta Iudeatic, eta Iordanaz berce aldetic.
Then crowds started to go with him. [They were people from] Galilee [District], (from the Decapolis/from the Ten Towns [area]), from Jerusalem [city], from other [parts of] Judea [district], and from areas east of the Jordan [River].
