Then was
Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to
be tempted of the devil.
02 And when he had fasted forty days and forty
nights, he was afterward an hungered.
03 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If
thou be the Son of God, command that these stones
be made bread.
04 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.
05 Then the devil taketh him up
into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle
of the temple,
06 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.
07 Jesus said unto him, It is
written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy
God.
08 Again, the devil taketh him up
into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him
all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of
them;
09 And saith unto him, All these things will I
give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
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.
11 Then the devil leaveth him,
and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.
12 Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast
into prison, he departed into Galilee;
13 And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in
Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the
borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:

14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by
Esaias the prophet, saying,
15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of
Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan,
Galilee of the Gentiles;
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.
17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to
say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at
hand.
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.
19 And he saith unto them,Follow
me, and I will make you fishers of men.
20 And they straightway left their
nets, and followed him.
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.
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 gospel 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 lunatic, 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 Judaea, and from beyond
Jordan.
