Matthew 4
1 Then Jesus was carried up into the wilderness by the Spirit to be tempted of the devil:
ⲁ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲁ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲟⲗϥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲁϥⲉ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϫⲓⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲇⲓ⳿ⲁⲃⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⲉⲣⲡⲓⲣⲁⲍⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ.
2 and having fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards he hungered.

3 And the tempter coming up to him said, If thou be Son of God, speak, that these stones may become loaves of bread.

4 But he answering said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word which goes out through God's mouth.

5 Then the devil takes him to the holy city, and sets him upon the edge of the temple,

6 and says to him, If thou be Son of God cast thyself down; for it is written, He shall give charge to his angels concerning thee, and on [their] hands shall they bear thee, lest in anywise thou strike thy foot against a stone.

7 Jesus said to him, It is again written, Thou shalt not tempt [the] Lord thy God.

8 Again the devil takes him to a very high mountain, and shews him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory,
ⲏ̅ⲡⲁⲗⲓⲛ ⲟⲛ ⲁϥⲟⲗϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲇⲓ⳿ⲁⲃⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲧⲱⲟⲩ ⲉϥϭⲟⲥⲓ ⳿ⲉⲙⲁϣⲱ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲙⲉⲧⲟⲩⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲟⲩ⳿ⲱⲟⲩ.
9 and says to him, All these things will I give thee if, falling down, thou wilt do me homage.

10 Then says Jesus to him, Get thee away, Satan, for it is written, Thou shalt do homage to [the] Lord thy God, and him alone shalt thou serve.

11 Then the devil leaves him, and behold, angels came and ministered to him.

12 But having heard that John was delivered up, he departed into Galilee:

13 and having left Nazareth, he went and dwelt at Capernaum, which is on the sea-side in the borders of Zabulon and Nepthalim,

14 that that might be fulfilled which was spoken through Esaias the prophet, saying,

16 — the people sitting in darkness has seen a great light, and to those sitting in [the] country and shadow of death, to them has light sprung up.

17 From that time began Jesus to preach and to say, Repent, for the kingdom of the heavens has drawn nigh.

18 And walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishers;

19 and he says to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.

21 And going on thence he saw other two brothers, James the [son] of Zebedee and John his brother, in the ship with Zebedee their father, mending their trawl-nets, and he called them;

23 And [Jesus] went round the whole [of] Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the glad tidings of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every bodily weakness among the people.
