MT-4:1  Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness

to be tempted


of the devil.


MT-4:2  And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he

was afterward an


hungered.


MT-4:3  And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be

the Son of God,


command that these stones be made bread.


MT-4:4  But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not

live by bread


alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.


MT-4:5  Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and

setteth him on a


pinnacle of the temple,


MT-4:6  And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast

thyself down: for


it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee:

and in [their]


hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy

foot against a


stone.


MT-4:7  Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not

tempt the Lord


thy God.


MT-4:8  Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high

mountain, and


showeth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;


MT-4:9  And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee,

if thou wilt


fall down and worship me.


MT-4:10  Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for

it is written,


Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou

serve.


MT-4:11  Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came

and ministered


unto him.


MT-4:12  Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison,

 he departed


into Galilee;


MT-4:13  And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum,

which is upon


the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:


MT-4:14  That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias

the prophet,


saying,


MT-4:15  The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, [by]

the way of the


sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;


MT-4:16  The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and

to them which


sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.


MT-4:17  From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say,

Repent: for the


kingdom of heaven is at hand.


MT-4:18  And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two

brethren, Simon


called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea:

 for they were


fishers.


MT-4:19  And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you

fishers of men.




MT-4:20  And they straightway left [their] nets, and followed

him.


MT-4:21  And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren,

James [the son]


of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their

father, mending


their nets; and he called them.


MT-4:22  And they immediately left the ship and their father,

and followed him.




MT-4:23  And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their

synagogues, and


preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of

sickness and all


manner of disease among the people.


MT-4:24  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 lunatic, and

those that had


the palsy; and he healed them.


MT-4:25  And there followed him great multitudes of people from

Galilee, and


[from] Decapolis, and [from] Jerusalem, and [from] Judaea, and

[from] beyond


Jordan.
