Link > Matthew Chapter 4

Chapter 4

1 Then Yehoshua/Jesus was led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry.
3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If you are the son of God, command these stones to be made bread.
4 But he answered, It is written, a person shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.
5 The devil then took him up into 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 shall give his angels charge concerning you: and in their hands they shall bear you up, lest at any time you hit your foot against a stone.
7 Jesus said unto him, It is written in another place, You shall not tempt the Lord your God.
8 Then the devil took him up into an extremely high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of each of them;
9 And said unto him, All these things I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.
10 Then Jesus said to him, Get far away from me, Satan: for it is written, You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.
11 Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended unto him.
12 ¶Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed and went into Galilee;
13 And moving from Nazareth, he came to live in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zebulon and Naphtali:
14 This he did in order that it might be fulfilled as it was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, where he said,
15 The land of Zebulon, and the land of Naphtali by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;
16 The people which sat in darkness saw a great light; to them who sat in the region of the shadow of death light is sprung up.
17 ¶From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Return to God: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
18 ¶And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of people.
20 And they immediately left their nets, and followed him.
21 And going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.
22 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.
23 ¶And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.
24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.
25 And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judah, and from beyond Jordan.
