¹ And, Jesus, full of Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan, and was led in the Spirit in the desert,² forty days, - being tempted by the adversary; and he did eat nothing in those days, - and, when they were concluded, he hungered.³ And the adversary said to him - If thou art God's, Son, speak unto this stone; that it become bread.⁴ And Jesus made answer unto him - It is written: Not, on bread alone, shall, man, live.⁵ And, leading him up, he shewed him all the kingdoms of the inhabited earth, in a moment of time.⁶ And the adversary said to him - Unto thee, will I give this authority, all together, and their glory; because, unto me, hath it been delivered up, and, to whomsoever I please, I give it:⁷ Thou, therefore, if thou wilt worship before me, it shall all, be thine.⁸ And, answering, Jesus said to him - It is written: The Lord thy God, shalt thou worship, and, unto him alone, render divine service.⁹ And he led him into Jerusalem, and set him upon the pinnacle of the temple, - and said to him- If thou art God's, Son, cast thyself, from hence, down;¹⁰ for it is written - Unto his messengers, will he give command concerning thee, to keep vigilant watch over thee, - ¹¹ And, On hands, will they take thee up, lest once thou strike, against a stone, thy foot.¹² And Jesus, answering, said to him - It is said: Thou shalt not put to the test the Lord thy God.¹³ And, having concluded every temptation, the adversary departed from him until a fitting season.

¹⁴ And Jesus returned, in the power of the Spirit, into Galilee; and, a report, went out along the whole of the region, concerning him;¹⁵ and, he, began teaching in their synagogues, being glorified by all.¹⁶ And he came into Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and entered, according to his custom, on the sabbath day, into the synagogue, - and stood up to read.¹⁷ And there was handed to him a scroll of the prophet Isaiah; and unfolding the scroll, he found the place where it was written:¹⁸ The Spirit of the Lord, is upon me, because he hath anointed me - to tell glad tidings unto the destitute; He hath sent me forth, - To proclaim, to captives, a release, and, to the blind, a recovering of sight, - to send away the crushed, with a release;¹⁹ To proclaim the welcome year of the Lord.²⁰ And, folding up the scroll, he handed it to the attendant, and sat down; and, the eyes of all, in the synagogue, were intently fixed upon him;²¹ and he began to be saying to them - This day, is fulfilled this scripture, in your ears.²² And, all, were bearing witness to him, and marvelling at the words of favour which were proceeding out of his mouth; and they were saying - Is not, this, the, son of Joseph?²³ And he said unto them - By all means, ye will speak to me this similitude: Physician! heal, thyself, - Whatsoever things we have heard of coming to pass in Capernaum, do here also, in thine own country.²⁴ And he said - Verily, I say unto you, No prophet, is, welcome, in his own country,²⁵ And, of a truth, I say unto you - Many widows, were in the days of Elijah, in Israel, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when there came a great famine upon all the land;²⁶ And, unto none of them, was Elijah sent, save unto Sarepta of Sidonia, unto a woman that was a widow.²⁷ And, many lepers, were in Israel, in the time of Elisha the prophet, and, not one of them, was cleansed, save Naaman the Syrian.²⁸ And all were filled with wrath, in the synagogue, as they heard these things.²⁹ And, rising up, they thrust him forth outside the city, and led him as far as a brow of the hill on which their city was built, - so that they might throw him down headlong.³⁰ But, he, passing through the midst of them, went his way.

³¹ And he came down into Capernaum, a city of Galilee. And he was teaching them on the sabbath;³² and they were being struck with astonishment at his teaching, because, with authority, was his word.³³ And, in the synagogue, was a man having a spirit of an impure demon; and he cried out with a loud voice - ³⁴ Let be! What have we in common with thee, O Jesus, Nazarene! Hast thou come to destroy us? I know thee, who thou art, - The Holy One of God.³⁵ And Jesus rebuked it, saying - Hold thy peace! and go forth from him. And the demon, throwing him into the midst, went forth from him, doing him no hurt.³⁶ And amazement came upon all, and they began to converse one with another, saying - What is this word, that, with authority and power, he giveth orders unto the impure spirits, and they go forth?³⁷ And a noise concerning him began to go out into every place of the country around.³⁸ And, rising up, from the synagogue, he went into the house of Simon. Now, the mother-in-law of Simon, was in distress with a great fever; and they made request to him concerning her.³⁹ And, standing over her, he rebuked the fever, and it left her; and, instantly arising, she began to minister unto them.⁴⁰ But, as the sun was going in, they one and all, as many as had any sick with divers diseases, brought them unto him; and, he, upon each one of them laying, his hands, was curing them.⁴¹ And demons also were going forth from many; crying aloud, and saying - Thou, art the Son of God. And, rebuking them, he suffered them not be talking; because they knew him to be, The Christ.⁴² And, when it was day, going forth, he journeyed into a desert place; and, the multitudes, were seeking after him, and they came unto him, and would have detained him, that he might not depart from them.⁴³ But, he, said unto them - To the other cities also, I must needs tell the good-news of the kingdom of God, because, hereunto, was I sent forth.⁴⁴ And he was proclaiming in the cities of Judaea.
