(Mark 1:12–13; Luke 4:1–13)
1
Then was Iesus led aside of the Spirit into the wildernes, to be tempted of the deuil.
2
And when he had fasted fourtie dayes, and fourtie nights, he was afterward hungrie.
3
Then came to him the tempter, and said, If thou be the Sonne of God, commande that these stones be made bread.
4
But he answering said, It is written, Man shall not liue by bread onely, but by euery worde that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
5
Then the deuil tooke him vp into the holy Citie, and set him on a pinacle of the temple,
6
And said vnto him, If thou be the Sonne of God, cast thy selfe downe: for it is written, that he wil giue his Angels charge ouer thee, and with their hands they shall lift thee vp, lest at any time thou shouldest dash thy foote against a stone.
7
Iesus saide vnto him, It is written againe, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
8
Againe the deuil tooke him vp into an exceeding hie mountaine, and shewed him all the kingdomes of the world, and the glory of them,
9
And sayd to him, All these will I giue thee, if thou wilt fall downe, and worship me.
10
Then sayd Iesus vnto him, Auoyde Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him onely shalt thou serue.
11
Then the deuill left him: and beholde, the Angels came, and ministred vnto him.

Jesus Begins His Ministry

(Isaiah 9:1–7; Mark 1:14–15; Luke 4:14–15)
12
And when Iesus had heard that Iohn was committed to prison, he returned into Galile.
13
And leauing Nazareth, went and dwelt in Capernaum, which is neere the sea in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim,
14
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the Propet, saying,
15
The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim by the way of the sea, beyond Iordan, Galile of the Gentiles:
16
The people which sate in darkenes, sawe great light: and to them which sate in the region, and shadowe of death, light is risen vp.
17
From that time Iesus began to preach, and to say, Amende your liues: for the kingdome of heauen is at hand.

The First Disciples

(Mark 1:16–20; Luke 5:1–11; John 1:35–42)
18
And Iesus walking by the sea of Galile, sawe two brethren, Simon, which was called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea (for they were fishers.)
19
And he sayd vnto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.
20
And they straightway leauing the nets, folowed him.
21
And when he was gone forth from thence, he saw other two brethren, Iames the sonne of Zebedeus, and Iohn his brother in a ship with Zebedeus their father, mending their nets, and he called them.
22
And they without tarying, leauing the ship, and their father, folowed him.

Jesus Heals the Multitudes

(Mark 3:7–12; Luke 6:17–19)
23
So Iesus went about all Galile, teaching in their Synagogues, and preaching the Gospel of the kingdome, and healing euery sicknesse and euery disease among the people.
24
And his fame spread abroad through all Syria: and they brought vnto him all sicke people, that were taken with diuers diseases and torments, and them that were possessed with deuils, and those which were lunatike, and those that had the palsey: and he healed them.
25
And there folowed him great multitudes out of Galile, and Decapolis, and Hierusalem, and Iudea, and from beyond Iordan.
(Mark 1:12–13; Luke 4:1–13)
1
Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
2
When he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry afterward.
3
The tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”
4
But he answered, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of God’s mouth.’” (a)
5
Then the devil took him into the holy city. He set him on the pinnacle of the temple,
6
and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written,He will command his angels concerning you,’ and,On their hands they will bear you up, so that you don’t dash your foot against a stone.’”(b)
7
Jesus said to him, “Again, it is written, ‘You shall not test the Lord, your God.’” (c)
8
Again, the devil took him to an exceedingly high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.
9
He said to him, “I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me.”
10
Then Jesus said to him, “Get behind me, (d) Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.’” (e)
11
Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and served him.

Jesus Begins His Ministry

(Isaiah 9:1–7; Mark 1:14–15; Luke 4:14–15)
12
Now when Jesus heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee.
13
Leaving Nazareth, he came and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,
14
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
15
The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, toward the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,
16
the people who sat in darkness saw a great light; to those who sat in the region and shadow of death, to them light has dawned.”(f)
17
From that time, Jesus began to preach, and to say, “Repent! For the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”

The First Disciples

(Mark 1:16–20; Luke 5:1–11; John 1:35–42)
18
Walking by the sea of Galilee, he (g) saw two brothers: Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew, his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
19
He said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers for men.”
20
They immediately left their nets and followed him.
21
Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them.
22
They immediately left the boat and their father, and followed him.
