< Matthew 4 >

1 Then Yeshua was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
Then was Jesus led by the Holy Spirit into the desert, to be tempted by the Calumniator
2 When he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry afterward.
And he fasted forty days and forty nights, and afterward he hungered.
3 The tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”
And the Tempter came, and said to him: If thou art the Son of God, command these stones to become bread.
4 But he answered, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of God’s mouth.’”
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.
5 Then the devil took him into the holy city. He set him on the pinnacle of the temple,
Then the Calumniator took him to the holy city, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple,
6 and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written, ‘He will command his angels concerning you,’ and, ‘On their hands they will bear you up, so that you don’t dash your foot against a stone.’”
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.
7 Yeshua said to him, “Again, it is written, ‘You shall not test the Lord, your God.’”
Jesus said to him: It is moreover written, that thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
8 Again, the devil took him to an exceedingly high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.
Again the Calumniator took him to a mountain that was very high, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory;
9 He said to him, “I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me.”
and said to him: All these will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
10 Then Yeshua said to him, “Get behind me, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.’”
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.
11 Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and served him.
Then the Calumniator left him: and lo, angels came, and ministered to him.
12 Now when Yeshua heard that Yochanan was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee.
And when Jesus had heard that John was delivered up, he retired to Galilee.
13 Leaving Nazareth, he came and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,
And he left Nazareth, and came and dwelt in Capernaum, by the side of the sea, on the confines of Zebulon and Naphthali.
14 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
That so might be fulfilled that which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, who said:
15 “The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, towards the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,
The land of Zebulon, the land of Naphthali, the way of the sea, the ford of Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;
16 the people who sat in darkness saw a great light; to those who sat in the region and shadow of death, to them light has dawned.”
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.
17 From that time, Yeshua began to proclaim, and to say, “Repent! For the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”
From that time began Jesus to proclaim and say: Repent; for the kingdom of heaven hath approached.
18 Walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers: Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew, his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
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.
19 He said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers for men.”
And Jesus said to them: Follow me; and I will cause you to become fishers of men.
20 They immediately left their nets and followed him.
And immediately, they left their nets, and went after him.
21 Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, Jacob the son of Zebedee, and Yochanan his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them.
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.
22 They immediately left the boat and their father, and followed him.
And they immediately left the ship and their father, and went after him.
23 Yeshua went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness amongst the people.
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.
24 The report about him went out into all Syria. They brought to him all who were sick, afflicted with various diseases and torments, possessed with demons, epileptics, and paralytics; and he healed them.
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.
25 Great multitudes from Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and from beyond the Jordan followed him.
And there followed him great multitudes from Galilee, and from the Ten Cities, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond the Jordan.
