Luke 4
1 On returning from the Jordan, full of the Holy Spirit, Jesus was led by the power of the Spirit through the wilderness for forty days, tempted by the devil.
Jesus autem plenus Spiritu Sancto regressus est a Jordane: et agebatur a Spiritu in desertum
2 All that time he ate nothing; and, when it was over, he became hungry.
diebus quadraginta, et tentabatur a diabolo. Et nihil manducavit in diebus illis: et consummatis illis esuriit.
3 So the devil said to him, “If you are God’s Son, tell this stone to become a loaf of bread.”
Dixit autem illi diabolus: Si Filius Dei es, dic lapidi huic ut panis fiat.
4 And Jesus answered him, “Scripture says – ‘It is not on bread alone that a person is to live.’”
Et respondit ad illum Jesus: Scriptum est: Quia non in solo pane vivit homo, sed in omni verbo Dei.
5 And the devil led Jesus up, and showing him in a single moment all the kingdoms of the earth, said to him,
Et duxit illum diabolus in montem excelsum, et ostendit illi omnia regna orbis terræ in momento temporis,
6 “I will give you all this power, and the splendor of them; for it has been given into my hands and I give it to whom I wish.
et ait illi: Tibi dabo potestatem hanc universam, et gloriam illorum: quia mihi tradita sunt, et cui volo do illa.
7 If you worship me, it will all be yours.”
Tu ergo si adoraveris coram me, erunt tua omnia.
8 And Jesus answered him, “Scripture says – ‘You should worship the Lord your God, and worship him only.’”
Et respondens Jesus, dixit illi: Scriptum est: Dominum Deum tuum adorabis, et illi soli servies.
9 The devil next led him into Jerusalem, and, placing him on the parapet of the Temple, said, “If you are God’s Son throw yourself down from here,
Et duxit illum in Jerusalem, et statuit eum super pinnam templi, et dixit illi: Si Filius Dei es, mitte te hinc deorsum.
10 for scripture says – ‘He will give his angels commands about you, to guard you safely,’
Scriptum est enim quod angelis suis mandavit de te, ut conservent te:
11 And ‘On their hands they will lift you up, otherwise you might strike your foot against a stone.’”
et quia in manibus tollent te, ne forte offendas ad lapidem pedem tuum.
12 But Jesus answered him, “It is said – ‘You must not tempt the Lord your God.’”
Et respondens Jesus, ait illi: Dictum est: Non tentabis Dominum Deum tuum.
13 When he had tried every kind of temptation, the devil left Jesus, until another opportunity.
Et consummata omni tentatione, diabolus recessit ab illo, usque ad tempus.
14 Moved by the power of the Spirit, Jesus returned to Galilee. Reports about him spread through all that region;
Et regressus est Jesus in virtute Spiritus in Galilæam, et fama exiit per universam regionem de illo.
15 and he began to teach in their synagogues, and was honored by everyone.
Et ipse docebat in synagogis eorum, et magnificabatur ab omnibus.
16 Coming to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, Jesus, as was his custom, went on the Sabbath into the synagogue, and stood up to read the scriptures.
Et venit Nazareth, ubi erat nutritus, et intravit secundum consuetudinem suam die sabbati in synagogam, et surrexit legere.
17 He was given the book of the prophet Isaiah; and Jesus opened the book and found the place where it says –
Et traditus est illi liber Isaiæ prophetæ. Et ut revolvit librum, invenit locum ubi scriptum erat:
18 ‘The Spirit of the Lord is on me, for he has consecrated me to bring good news to the poor, he has sent me to proclaim release to captives and restoration of sight to the blind, to set the oppressed at liberty,
Spiritus Domini super me: propter quod unxit me, evangelizare pauperibus misit me, sanare contritos corde,
19 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.’
prædicare captivis remissionem, et cæcis visum, dimittere confractos in remissionem, prædicare annum Domini acceptum et diem retributionis.
20 Then, closing the book and returning it to the attendant, he sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him,
Et cum plicuisset librum, reddit ministro, et sedit. Et omnium in synagoga oculi erant intendentes in eum.
21 and Jesus began, “This very day this passage has been fulfilled in your hearing.”
Cœpit autem dicere ad illos: Quia hodie impleta est hæc scriptura in auribus vestris.
22 All who were present spoke well of him, and were astonished at the beautiful words that fell from his lips. “Isn’t Joseph’s son?” they asked.
Et omnes testimonium illi dabant: et mirabantur in verbis gratiæ, quæ procedebant de ore ipsius, et dicebant: Nonne hic est filius Joseph?
23 “Doubtless,” said Jesus, “you will remind me of the saying – ‘Doctor, cure yourself;’ and you will say ‘Do here in your own country all that we have heard that has been done at Capernaum.’
Et ait illis: Utique dicetis mihi hanc similitudinem: Medice cura teipsum: quanta audivimus facta in Capharnaum, fac et hic in patria tua.
24 I tell you,” he continued, “that no prophet is acceptable in his own country.
Ait autem: Amen dico vobis, quia nemo propheta acceptus est in patria sua.
25 There were, doubtless, many widows in Israel in Elijah’s days, when the heavens were closed for three years and six months, and a severe famine prevailed throughout the country;
In veritate dico vobis, multæ viduæ erant in diebus Eliæ in Israël, quando clausum est cælum annis tribus et mensibus sex, cum facta esset fames magna in omni terra:
26 and yet it was not to one of them that Elijah was sent, but to a widow at Zarephath in Sidonia.
et ad nullam illarum missus est Elias, nisi in Sarepta Sidoniæ, ad mulierem viduam.
27 And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, yet it was not one of them who was made clean, but Naaman the Syrian.”
Et multi leprosi erant in Israël sub Eliseo propheta: et nemo eorum mundatus est nisi Naaman Syrus.
28 All the people in the synagogue, as they listened to this, became enraged.
Et repleti sunt omnes in synagoga ira, hæc audientes.
29 Starting up, they drove Jesus out of the town, and led him to the brow of the hill on which their town stood, intending to hurl him down.
Et surrexerunt, et ejecerunt illum extra civitatem: et duxerunt illum usque ad supercilium montis, super quem civitas illorum erat ædificata, ut præcipitarent eum.
30 But he passed through the middle of the crowd and went on his way.
Ipse autem transiens per medium illorum, ibat.
31 Then Jesus went down to Capernaum, a city in Galilee. On the Sabbath he taught the people.
Et descendit in Capharnaum civitatem Galilææ, ibique docebat illos sabbatis.
32 They were amazed at his teaching, because his words were spoken with authority.
Et stupebant in doctrina ejus, quia in potestate erat sermo ipsius.
33 In the synagogue there was a man with the spirit of a foul demon in him, who called out loudly,
Et in synagoga erat homo habens dæmonium immundum, et exclamavit voce magna,
34 “Stop! 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!”
dicens: Sine, quid nobis et tibi, Jesu Nazarene? venisti perdere nos? scio te quis sis, Sanctus Dei.
35 But Jesus rebuked the demon. “Be silent! Come out from him,” he said. The demon flung the man down in the middle of the people, and then came out from him, without causing him further harm.
Et increpavit illum Jesus, dicens: Obmutesce, et exi ab eo. Et cum projecisset illum dæmonium in medium, exiit ab illo, nihilque illum nocuit.
36 And they were all lost in amazement, and kept saying to one another, “What words are these? For he gives his commands to the foul spirits with a marvelous authority, and they come out.”
Et factus est pavor in omnibus, et colloquebantur ad invicem, dicentes: Quod est hoc verbum, quia in potestate et virtute imperat immundis spiritibus, et exeunt?
37 And rumors about Jesus traveled through every place in the region.
Et divulgabatur fama de illo in omnem locum regionis.
38 On leaving the synagogue, Jesus went into Simon’s house. Now Simon’s mother-in-law was suffering from a severe attack of fever, and they asked Jesus to cure her.
Surgens autem Jesus de synagoga, introivit in domum Simonis. Socrus autem Simonis tenebatur magnis febribus: et rogaverunt illum pro ea.
39 Bending over her, he rebuked the fever; the fever left her, and she immediately got up and began to take care of them.
Et stans super illam imperavit febri: et dimisit illam. Et continuo surgens, ministrabat illis.
40 At sunset, all who had friends suffering from various diseases took them to Jesus; and he placed his hands on everyone of them and cured them.
Cum autem sol occidisset, omnes qui habebant infirmos variis languoribus, ducebant illos ad eum. At ille singulis manus imponens, curabat eos.
41 And even demons came out from many people, screaming ‘You are the Son of God.’ Jesus rebuked them, and would not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.
Exibant autem dæmonia a multis clamantia, et dicentia: Quia tu es Filius Dei: et increpans non sinebat ea loqui: quia sciebant ipsum esse Christum.
42 At daybreak, Jesus went out and walked to a lonely spot. But crowds of people began to look for him; and they came to where he was and tried to detain him and prevent his leaving them.
Facta autem die egressus ibat in desertum locum, et turbæ requirebant eum, et venerunt usque ad ipsum: et detinebant illum ne discederet ab eis.
43 Jesus, however, said to them, “I must take the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns too, for that was why I was sent.”
Quibus ille ait: Quia et aliis civitatibus oportet me evangelizare regnum Dei: quia ideo missus sum.
44 And he continued to make his proclamation in the synagogues of Judea.
Et erat prædicans in synagogis Galilææ.
