1 Then Jesus, full of Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, turned back from the Jordan, and was brought in the Spirit to the wilderness,
2 where He was tested for forty days by the devil. He ate nothing at all during those days, so after they were completed He was hungry.
forty days being tempted by the Devil, and he did not eat anything in those days, and they having been ended, he afterward hungered,
3 So the devil said to Him, “Since you are Son of God, tell this stone to become bread!”
and the Devil said to him, 'If Son thou art of God, speak to this stone that it may become bread.'
4 Jesus answered him saying, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.’”
And Jesus answered him, saying, 'It hath been written, that, not on bread only shall man live, but on every saying of God.'
5 And taking Him up on a high mountain, the devil showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
And the Devil having brought him up to an high mountain, shewed to him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time,
6 The devil said to Him: “To you I will give all this authority, and their glory, because it has been handed over to me, and I give it to whomever I want to.
and the Devil said to him, 'To thee I will give all this authority, and their glory, because to me it hath been delivered, and to whomsoever I will, I do give it;
7 So you, if you would worship before me, all will be yours.”
thou, then, if thou mayest bow before me — all shall be thine.'
8 In answer Jesus said to him: “Get behind me, Satan! It is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only shall you serve!’”
And Jesus answering him said, 'Get thee behind me, Adversary, for it hath been written, Thou shalt bow before the Lord thy God, and Him only thou shalt serve.'
9 He also took Him to Jerusalem and set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him: “Since you are Son of God, throw yourself down from here;
And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, 'If the Son thou art of God, cast thyself down hence,
10 because it is written, ‘He will give His angels orders concerning you, to protect you,’
for it hath been written — To His messengers He will give charge concerning thee, to guard over thee,
11 and, ‘They will carry you along on their hands, so you do not stub your foot on a stone.’”
and — On hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou mayest dash against a stone thy foot.'
12 In answer Jesus said to him: “The statement stands, ‘You shall not test the Lord your God!’”
And Jesus answering said to him — 'It hath been said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.'
13 Having finished every test, the devil departed from Him until an opportune time.
And having ended all temptation, the Devil departed from him till a convenient season.
14 Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee, and news about Him spread throughout the whole surrounding area;
And Jesus turned back in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and a fame went forth through all the region round about concerning him,
15 yes, He started teaching in their synagogues, being glorified by all.

16 So He came to Natsareth, where He had been brought up; as was His custom He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.
And he came to Nazareth, where he hath been brought up, and he went in, according to his custom, on the sabbath-day, to the synagogue, and stood up to read;
17 The book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him, so unrolling the scroll He found the place where it was written:
and there was given over to him a roll of Isaiah the prophet, and having unfolded the roll, he found the place where it hath been written:
18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me to evangelize poor people. He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim release to captives and recovery of sight to blind people, to send those who are oppressed out in freedom,
'The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon me, Because He did anoint me; To proclaim good news to the poor, Sent me to heal the broken of heart, To proclaim to captives deliverance, And to blind receiving of sight, To send away the bruised with deliverance,
19 to proclaim the Lord's favorable year.”
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.'
20 Then, having rolled up the scroll and returned it to the attendant, He sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on Him,
And having folded the roll, having given [it] back to the officer, he sat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue were gazing on him.
21 and He began by saying to them, “Today, this Scripture in your ears has been fulfilled.”
And he began to say unto them — 'To-day hath this writing been fulfilled in your ears;'
22 (All were bearing witness to Him and were marveling at the gracious words that were coming out of His mouth; and they started saying, “Isn't this the son of Joseph?”)
and all were bearing testimony to him, and were wondering at the gracious words that are coming forth out of his mouth, and they said, 'Is not this the son of Joseph?'
23 He said to them: “Doubtless you will quote this parable to me: ‘Physician, heal yourself!’—do here in your hometown the things we have heard were done in Capernaum.”
And he said unto them, 'Certainly ye will say to me this simile, Physician, heal thyself; as great things as we heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country;'
24 Then He said: “Assuredly I say to you, no prophet is welcome in his hometown.
and he said, 'Verily I say to you — No prophet is accepted in his own country;
25 Further, I can assure you that there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the sky was shut for three years and six months and a severe famine came over all the land;
and of a truth I say to you, Many widows were in the days of Elijah, in Israel, when the heaven was shut for three years and six months, when great famine came on all the land,
26 yet Elijah was not sent to any of them, but to a widow woman in Sarepta, near Sidon.
and unto none of them was Elijah sent, but — to Sarepta of Sidon, unto a woman, a widow;
27 And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, yet not one of them was cleansed—just Naaman the Syrian.”
and many lepers were in the time of Elisha the prophet, in Israel, and none of them was cleansed, but — Naaman the Syrian.'
28 Well, upon hearing these things everyone in the synagogue was filled with fury,
And all in the synagogue were filled with wrath, hearing these things,
29 and rising up they drove Him out of the town and took Him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw Him off the cliff.
and having risen, they put him forth without the city, and brought him unto the brow of the hill on which their city had been built — to cast him down headlong,
30 But He, passing through the middle of them, went on His way.
and he, having gone through the midst of them, went away.
31 Then He went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee; He started teaching them on the Sabbaths.
And he came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on the sabbaths,
32 They kept on being amazed at His teaching, because His word was with authority.

33 Now in the synagogue was a man having a spirit of an unclean demon; he cried out with a loud voice
And in the synagogue was a man, having a spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a great voice,
34 saying: “Ugh! What do you want with us, Jesus of Natsareth? Did you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy One of God!”
saying, 'Away, what — to us and to thee, Jesus, O Nazarene? thou didst come to destroy us; I have known thee who thou art — the Holy One of God.'
35 So Jesus rebuked him saying, “Be muzzled, and get out of him!” When the demon had thrown him down in the midst, it came out of him without harming him.
And Jesus did rebuke him, saying, 'Be silenced, and come forth out of him;' and the demon having cast him into the midst, came forth from him, having hurt him nought;
36 Everyone was taken with amazement and they started conversing together, saying: “What is this word! For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!”
and amazement came upon all, and they were speaking together, with one another, saying, 'What [is] this word, that with authority and power he doth command the unclean spirits, and they come forth?'
37 And the news about Him started going out to every place of the surrounding region.

38 Then He left the synagogue and entered Simon's house. But Simon's mother-in-law was suffering with a high fever, and they requested Him on her behalf.
And having risen out of the synagogue, he entered into the house of Simon, and the mother-in-law of Simon was pressed with a great fever, and they did ask him about her,
39 So He stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her. Immediately she got up and began to serve them.
and having stood over her, he rebuked the fever, and it left her, and presently, having risen, she was ministering to them.
40 Now when the sun was setting, all those who had any who were sick with various diseases brought them to Him; and He laid His hands on each one of them and healed them.
And at the setting of the sun, all, as many as had any ailing with manifold sicknesses, brought them unto him, and he on each one of them [his] hands having put, did heal them.
41 Moreover, demons came out of many, crying out and saying, “You are the Christ, the Son of God!” But rebuking them He would not allow them to continue speaking, because they knew that He was the Messiah.
And demons also were coming forth from many, crying out and saying — 'Thou art the Christ, the Son of God;' and rebuking, he did not suffer them to speak, because they knew him to be the Christ.
42 Now at daybreak He departed and went to a deserted place; so the crowds started looking for Him and came to Him, and tried to keep Him from leaving them.
And day having come, having gone forth, he went on to a desert place, and the multitudes were seeking him, and they came unto him, and were staying him — not to go on from them,
43 But He said to them, “I must proclaim the good news of the Kingdom of God to the other towns also, because for this purpose I have been sent.”
and he said unto them — 'Also to the other cities it behoveth me to proclaim good news of the reign of God, because for this I have been sent;'
