< Matthew 4 >

1 Nígbà náà ni Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ darí Jesu sí ijù láti dán an wò láti ọwọ́ èṣù.
Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
2 Lẹ́yìn tí Òun ti gbààwẹ̀ ní ogójì ọ̀sán àti ogójì òru, ebi sì ń pa á.
And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry afterward.
3 Nígbà náà ni olùdánwò tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó wí pé, “Bí ìwọ bá ṣe Ọmọ Ọlọ́run, pàṣẹ kí òkúta wọ̀nyí di àkàrà.”
And the tempter came and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread."
4 Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu dáhùn pé, “A ti kọ ìwé rẹ̀ pé: ‘Ènìyàn kì yóò wà láààyè nípa àkàrà nìkan, bí kò ṣe nípa gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ ti ó ti ẹnu Ọlọ́run jáde wá.’”
But he answered and said, "It is written, 'Humankind cannot live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.'"
5 Lẹ́yìn èyí ni èṣù gbé e lọ sí ìlú mímọ́ náà; ó gbé e lé ibi ṣóńṣó tẹmpili.
Then the devil took him into the holy city. He set him on the pinnacle of the temple,
6 Ó wí pé, “Bí ìwọ̀ bá jẹ́ Ọmọ Ọlọ́run, bẹ́ sílẹ̀ fún ara rẹ. A sá à ti kọ̀wé rẹ̀ pé, “‘Yóò pàṣẹ fún àwọn angẹli rẹ̀ nítorí tìrẹ wọn yóò sì gbé ọ sókè ni ọwọ́ wọn kí ìwọ kí ó má ba à fi ẹsẹ̀ rẹ gbún òkúta.’”
and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written, 'He will put his angels in charge of you.' and, 'In their hands they will lift you up, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'"
7 Jesu sì dalóhùn, “A sá à ti kọ ọ́ pé, ‘Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ dán Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ wò.’”
Jesus said to him, "Again, it is written, 'Do not test the Lord your God.'"
8 Lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i, èṣù gbé e lọ sórí òkè gíga, ó sì fi gbogbo ilẹ̀ ọba ayé àti gbogbo ògo wọn hàn án.
Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory.
9 Ó sì wí fún un pé, “Gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni èmi yóò fi fún ọ, bí ìwọ bá foríbalẹ̀ tí o sì sìn mi.”
And he said to him, "I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me."
10 Jesu wí fún un pé, “Padà kúrò lẹ́yìn mi, Satani! Nítorí a ti kọ ọ́ pé, ‘Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ ni kí ìwọ kí ó fi orí balẹ̀ fún, òun nìkan ṣoṣo ni kí ìwọ máa sìn.’”
Then Jesus said to him, "Go away, Satan. For it is written, 'You are to worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.'"
11 Nígbà náà ni èṣù fi í sílẹ̀ lọ, àwọn angẹli sì tọ̀ ọ́ wá, wọ́n sì ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún un.
Then the devil left him, and look, angels came and served him.
12 Nígbà tí Jesu gbọ́ wí pé a ti fi Johanu sínú túbú ó padà sí Galili.
Now when he heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee.
13 Ó kúrò ní Nasareti, ó sì lọ í gbé Kapernaumu, èyí tí ó wà létí Òkun Sebuluni àti Naftali.
And leaving Nazareth, he came and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,
14 Kí èyí tí a ti sọtẹ́lẹ̀ láti ẹnu wòlíì Isaiah lè ṣẹ pé,
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
15 “Ìwọ Sebuluni àti ilẹ̀ Naftali ọ̀nà tó lọ sí Òkun, ní ọ̀nà Jordani, Galili ti àwọn kèfèrí.
"The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, toward the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations.
16 Àwọn ènìyàn tí ń gbé ni òkùnkùn tí ri ìmọ́lẹ̀ ńlá, àti àwọn tó ń gbé nínú ilẹ̀ òjijì ikú ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ tan fún.”
The people sitting in darkness have seen a great light, and those living in the land and shadow of death, on them a light has dawned."
17 Láti ìgbà náà lọ ni Jesu ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí wàásù: “Ẹ ronúpìwàdà, nítorí tí ìjọba ọ̀run kù sí dẹ̀dẹ̀.”
From that time on, Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near."
18 Bí Jesu ti ń rìn létí Òkun Galili, ó rí àwọn arákùnrin méjì, Simoni, ti à ń pè ní Peteru, àti Anderu arákùnrin rẹ̀. Wọ́n ń sọ àwọ̀n wọn sínú Òkun nítorí apẹja ni wọ́n.
And 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.
19 Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ wá, ẹ máa tọ̀ mí lẹ́yìn èmi yóò sì sọ yín di apẹja ènìyàn.”
And he said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of people."
20 Lójúkan náà, wọ́n fi àwọ̀n wọn sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn.
And they immediately left their nets and followed him.
21 Bí ó sì ti kúrò ní ibẹ̀, ò rí àwọn arákùnrin méjì mìíràn, Jakọbu ọmọ Sebede àti Johanu, arákùnrin rẹ̀. Wọ́n wà nínú ọkọ̀ ojú omi pẹ̀lú Sebede baba wọn, wọ́n ń di àwọ̀n wọn, Jesu sì pè àwọn náà pẹ̀lú.
Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and he called them.
22 Lójúkan náà, wọ́n fi ọkọ̀ ojú omi àti baba wọn sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn.
And they immediately left the boat and their father, and followed him.
23 Jesu sì rin káàkiri gbogbo Galili, ó ń kọ́ni ní Sinagọgu, ó ń wàásù ìyìnrere ti ìjọba ọ̀run, ó sì ń ṣe ìwòsàn ààrùn gbogbo àti àìsàn láàrín gbogbo ènìyàn.
And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.
24 Òkìkí rẹ̀ sì kàn yí gbogbo Siria ká; wọ́n sì gbé àwọn aláìsàn tí ó ní onírúurú ààrùn, àwọn tí ó ní ìnira ẹ̀mí èṣù, àti àwọn ti o ní wárápá àti àwọn tí ó ní ẹ̀gbà; ó sì wò wọ́n sàn.
And the report about him went out into all Syria, and they brought to him all who were sick, afflicted with various diseases and torments, possessed with demons, and epileptics, and paralytics; and he healed them.
25 Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn láti Galili, Dekapoli, Jerusalẹmu, Judea, àti láti òkè odò Jordani sì tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn.
And large crowds from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judea, and from beyond the Jordan followed him.
