CHAPTER 4 Jesus is Tested by the Devil

1 And Jesus [³spirit ²of holy ¹full] returned from the Jordan; and he was led by the spirit into the wilderness, 2 [²days ¹forty] being tested by the devil. And he did not eat anything during [²days ¹those]. And with their being completed, afterwards he hungered. 3 And [³said ⁴to him ¹the ²devil], If you are Son of God, tell this stone that it become bread! 4 And Jesus answered to him, saying, It has been written that, Not by bread alone shall [²live ¹man], but by every word of God. 5 And [³led ⁴him ¹the ²devil] into [²mountain ¹a high], to show to him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. 6 And [³said ⁴to him ¹the ²devil], I shall give to you this authority all together, and their glory; for it has been delivered to me, and to whom ever I should want to give it. 7 You then, if you should do obeisance before me, [²will be ³yours ¹all]. 8 And answering to him Jesus said, Go behind me Satan! for it has been written, You shall do obeisance to the Lord your God, and to him alone shall you serve. 9 And he led him unto Jerusalem, and stood him upon the border of the temple, and said to him, If [²the ³son ¹you are] of God, throw yourself from here below! 10 For it has been written that, To his angels he shall give charge concerning you, to guard you; 11 and upon hands they shall lift you, lest at any time [²should stumble ³against ⁴a stone ¹your foot]. 12 And answering [²said ³to him ¹Jesus] that, It has been said, Do not put to test the Lord your God! 13 And [³having completed ⁴all ⁵the test ¹the ²devil], left from him until an occasion.

Jesus Begins His Ministry

14 And Jesus returned in the power of the spirit into Galilee; and a reputation went forth unto the entire place round about concerning him. 15 And he taught in their synagogues, being extolled by all. 16 And he came unto Nazareth, of which he was reared. And he entered (according to the thing accustomed for him in the day of the Sabbaths) into the synagogue, and he rose up to read. 17 And there was given over to him a scroll of Isaiah the prophet. And unrolling the scroll, he found the place of which it was having been written, 18 Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because of which he anointed me to announce good news to the poor; he has sent me to heal the ones being broken in heart, to proclaim to captives a release, and to blind a recovery of sight, to send [²to the ones being devastated ¹a release]; 19 to proclaim [²year ³of the Lord ¹the accepted]. 20 And having rolled up the scroll, having given it back to the assistant, he sat down. And all [²in ³the ⁴synagogue ¹eyes] were gazing upon him. 21 And he began to say to them that, Today [²has been fulfilled ¹this scripture] in your ears. 22 And all bore witness to him, and marveled over the words of favor, the ones going forth from out of his mouth. And they said, [²not ³this ¹Is] the son of Joseph? 23 And he said to them, Assuredly you shall say to me this parable, Physician attend to yourself! As many things as we heard taking place in Capernaum, do also here in your fatherland! 24 And he said, Amen I say to you that, Not one prophet is accepted in his fatherland. 25 [²in ³truth ¹And] I say to you, [²many ³widows ¹There were] in the days of Elijah in Israel, when [³was locked ¹the ²heaven] for [²years ¹three] and [²months ¹six], as [³took place ²famine ¹a great] upon all the land. 26 And to not one of them was Elijah sent, except unto Sarepta of Sidon, to [²woman ¹a widow]. 27 And [²many ³lepers ¹there were] in the time of Elisha the prophet in Israel, and not one of them was cleansed, except Naaman the Syrian. 28 And they were all filled with rage in the synagogue, hearing these things. 29 And having risen up, they cast him outside the city, and led him unto a brow of the mountain upon which their city had been built, so as to fling him downwards. 30 But he going through the midst of them went away. 31 And he went down unto Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on the Sabbaths. 32 And they were overwhelmed at his teaching, for [³with ⁴authority ²was ¹his word].

The Unclean Spirits Come Forth

33 And in the synagogue was a man having a spirit [²demon ¹of an unclean], and he shouted aloud [²voice ¹with a great], 34 saying, Alas, what is it to us and to you, Jesus -- Nazarene? Are you come to destroy us? I know you, who you are, the holy one of God. 35 And [²reproached ³him ¹Jesus], saying, Be halted, and come forth from him! And [³having tossed ⁴him ¹the ²demon] into the midst, came forth from him, in nothing having hurt him. 36 And there became a stupefaction upon all, and they conversed together with one another, saying, What word is this, that with authority and power he gives orders to the unclean spirits, and they come forth? 37 And [⁴went forth ¹the sound ²concerning ³him] unto every place round about.

Jesus Heals Many

38 And rising up from out of the synagogue, he entered into the house of Simon. [²the ³mother-in-law ¹And] of Simon was constrained [²fever ¹by a great]; and they asked him concerning her. 39 And standing above her, he reproached the fever; and it left her. And immediately rising up she served to them. 40 And at the going down of the sun, all as many as had ones being weak [²diseases ¹by various] led them to him; and [⁶one ⁵each ⁷of them ²the ³hands ¹having placed ⁴upon], he cured them. 41 And there came forth also demons from many, crying out and saying that, You are the Christ the son of God. And reproaching, he did not allow them to speak; for they knew [³the ⁴Christ ¹him ²to be]. 42 And becoming day, having come forth, he went into a desolate place. And the multitudes sought him, and came unto him, and constrained him to not go from them. 43 And he said to them that, Also to the other cities [²to announce good news ¹it is necessary for me] -- the kingdom of God. For in this I have been sent. 44 And he was proclaiming in the synagogues of the of Galilee.
