Matthew 4
1 Then was Jesus led by the Holy Spirit into the desert, to be tempted by the Calumniator
Then Yeshua [Salvation] was led up by haRuach [the Spirit] into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
2 And he fasted forty days and forty nights, and afterward he hungered.
When he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry afterward.
3 And the Tempter came, and said to him: If thou art the Son of God, command these stones to become bread.
The tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Ben-Elohim ·Son of Elohim God·, command that these stones become bread.”
4 But he replied, and said: It is written, that not by bread only, doth man live; but by every word proceeding from the mouth of God.
But he answered, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of Adonai.’”
5 Then the Calumniator took him to the holy city, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple,
Then the devil took him into the holy city. He set him on the pinnacle of the temple,
6 and said to him: If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, that he will give his angels charge of thee, and in their hands will they sustain thee, lest thou strike thy foot against a stone.
and said to him, “If you are the Ben-Elohim ·Son of Elohim God·, throw yourself down, for it is written, ‘He will enjoin his angels unto you.’ And, ‘On their hands they will bear you up, so that you don’t dash your foot against a stone.’”
7 Jesus said to him: It is moreover written, that thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
Yeshua [Salvation] said to him, “Again, it is written, ‘You shall not test MarYah [Master Yahweh], your God.’”
8 Again the Calumniator took him to a mountain that was very high, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory;
Again, the devil took him to an exceedingly high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory.
9 and said to him: All these will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
He said to him, “I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me.”
10 Then Jesus said to him: Begone, Satan; for it is written, that thou shalt worship the Lord, thy God; and him only shalt thou serve.
Then Yeshua [Salvation] said to him, “Get behind me, Satan [Adversary]! For it is written, ‘You shall worship MarYah [Master Yahweh] your God, and you shall serve him only.’”
11 Then the Calumniator left him: and lo, angels came, and ministered to him.
Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and served him.
12 And when Jesus had heard that John was delivered up, he retired to Galilee.
Now when Yeshua [Salvation] heard that John [Yah is gracious] was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee [District, Circuit].
13 And he left Nazareth, and came and dwelt in Capernaum, by the side of the sea, on the confines of Zebulon and Naphthali.
Leaving Nazareth [Branch, Separated one], he came and lived in Capernaum [Village-Comfort, Village-Compassion], which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun [Living together] and Naphtali [My wrestling],
14 That so might be fulfilled that which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, who said:
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah [Salvation of Yah] the prophet, saying,
15 The land of Zebulon, the land of Naphthali, the way of the sea, the ford of Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;
“The land of Zebulun [Living together] and the land of Naphtali [My wrestling], toward the sea, beyond the Jordan [Descender], Galil-of-the-Goyim [District, Circuit of Non-Jews],
16 the people that sat in darkness, have seen great light; and to them who sat in the region and shadow of death, light is arisen.
the people who lived in darkness saw a great light, to those who live in the land of the shadow of death, to them light has dawned.”
17 From that time began Jesus to proclaim and say: Repent; for the kingdom of heaven hath approached.
From that time, Yeshua [Salvation] began to preach, and to say, “Teshuvah ·Turn repent·! For the Kingdom of Heaven (God) is at hand.”
18 And as he walked on the shore of the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Cephas, and Andrew his brother, who were casting nets into the sea; for they were fishermen.
Walking by the sea of Galilee [District, Circuit], he saw two brothers: Simeon [Hearing], who is called Peter [Rock], and Andrew [Manly], his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
19 And Jesus said to them: Follow me; and I will cause you to become fishers of men.
He said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers for men.”
20 And immediately, they left their nets, and went after him.
They immediately left their nets and followed him.
21 And as he passed on from there, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, who were mending their nets. And Jesus called them.
Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee [Surplanter son of Yah Has Bestowed], and John [Yah is gracious] his brother, in the boat with Zebedee [Bestowed by Yah] their father, mending their nets. He called them.
22 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and went after him.
They immediately left the boat and their father, and followed him.
23 And Jesus traveled over all Galilee. and he taught in their synagogues and proclaimed the tidings of the kingdom; and he cured every disease and malady among the people.
Yeshua [Salvation] went about in all Galilee [District, Circuit], teaching in their synagogues, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.
24 And his fame spread through all Syria. And they brought to him all them that were very sick with diverse diseases, and them that were afflicted with pains, and demoniacs, and lunatics and paralytics; and he healed them.
The report about him went out into all Syria [Elevated]. They brought to him all who were sick, afflicted with various diseases and torments, possessed with demons, epileptics, and paralytics; and he healed them.
25 And there followed him great multitudes from Galilee, and from the Ten Cities, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond the Jordan.
Great multitudes from Galilee [District, Circuit], Decapolis, Jerusalem [City of peace], Judea [Praise] and from beyond the Jordan [Descender] followed him.
