The Temptation of Jesus

(A)Now Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, (B)returned from the Jordan and was being led around [a]by the Spirit in the wilderness for (C)forty days, being tempted by the devil. And He ate nothing during those days, and when they had finished, He was hungry. And the devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.” And Jesus answered him, “It is written, ‘(D)Man shall not live on bread alone.’”

(E)And he led Him up and showed Him all the kingdoms of [b](F)the world in a moment of time. And the devil said to Him, “I will give You all this [c](G)dominion and [d]its glory, (H)for it has been handed over to me, and I give it to whomever I wish. Therefore if You [e]worship before me, it shall all be Yours.” And Jesus answered and said to him, “It is written, ‘(I)You shall worship the [f]Lord your God and serve Him only.’”

(J)And he led Him to Jerusalem and had Him stand on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down from here, 10 for it is written,

(K)He will command His angels concerning You to guard You,’

11 and,

(L)On their hands they will bear You up,
Lest You strike Your foot against a stone.’”

12 And Jesus answered and said to him, “It is said, ‘(M)You shall not put the [g]Lord your God to the test.’”

13 And when the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.

Jesus Begins His Ministry

14 And (N)Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and (O)news about Him spread through all the surrounding district. 15 And He was (P)teaching in their synagogues, being glorified by all.

Jesus Rejected at Nazareth

16 And He came to (Q)Nazareth, where He had been brought up, and as was His custom, (R)He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath and (S)stood up to read. 17 And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. And He opened the scroll and found the place where it was written,

18 (T)The Spirit of the [h]Lord is upon Me,
Because He anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor.
He has sent Me to proclaim release to the captives,
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set free those who are oppressed,
19 (U)To proclaim the favorable year of the [i]Lord.”

20 And He (V)closed the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and (W)sat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on Him. 21 And He began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your [j]hearing.” 22 And all were [k]speaking well of Him and marveling at the [l]gracious words which were coming forth from His lips, and they were saying, “(X)Is this not Joseph’s son?” 23 And He said to them, “No doubt you will quote this proverb to Me, ‘Physician, heal yourself! Whatever we heard took place (Y)at Capernaum, do also here in (Z)your hometown.’” 24 And He said, “Truly I say to you, (AA)no prophet is welcome in his hometown. 25 But I say to you in truth, there were many widows in Israel (AB)in the days of Elijah, when the sky was shut up for three years and six months, when a great famine came over all the land, 26 and yet Elijah was sent to none of them, but (AC)only to [m]Zarephath, in the land of (AD)Sidon, to a woman who was a widow. 27 And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed, but (AE)only Naaman the Syrian.” 28 And all the people in the synagogue were filled with rage as they heard these things, 29 and they stood up and (AF)drove Him out of the city, and led Him to the edge of the hill on which their city had been built, in order to throw Him down the cliff. 30 But (AG)passing through their midst, He went on His way.

Jesus Casts Out an Unclean Demon

31 And (AH)He came down to (AI)Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and He was teaching them on the Sabbath; 32 and (AJ)they were amazed at His teaching, for (AK)His [n]message was with authority. 33 And in the synagogue there was a man [o]possessed by the spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice, 34 [p]Let us alone! [q](AL)What do we have to do with You, Jesus the (AM)Nazarene? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—(AN)the Holy One of God!” 35 But Jesus (AO)rebuked it, saying, “Be quiet and come out of him!” And when the demon had thrown him down in the midst of the people, it came out of him without doing him any harm. 36 And amazement came upon them all, and they were talking with one another saying, “What is [r]this message? For (AP)with authority and power He commands the unclean spirits and they come out.” 37 And (AQ)the report about Him was spreading into every place in the surrounding district.

Peter’s Mother-in-Law and Many Others Healed

38 (AR)Then He stood up and left the synagogue, and entered Simon’s home. Now Simon’s mother-in-law was (AS)suffering from a high fever, and they asked Him [s]to help her. 39 And standing over her, He (AT)rebuked the fever, and it left her. Immediately she stood up and [t]began waiting on them.

40 (AU)And while (AV)the sun was setting, all those who had any who were sick with various diseases brought them to Him, and (AW)laying His hands on each one of them, He was (AX)healing them. 41 And demons also were coming out of many, shouting and saying, “You are (AY)the Son of God!” But (AZ)rebuking them, He was (BA)not allowing them to speak, because they knew Him to be the [u]Christ.

42 (BB)When day came, Jesus left and went to a secluded place; and the crowds were eagerly seeking for Him, and came to Him and tried to keep Him from going away from them. 43 But He said to them, “I must proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God to the other cities also, (BC)for I was sent for this purpose.”

44 So He kept on preaching in the synagogues (BD)of [v]Judea.

A tentação de Jesus(A)

E Jesus, cheio do Espírito Santo, voltou do Jordão e foi levado pelo Espírito ao deserto. E quarenta dias foi tentado pelo diabo, e, naqueles dias, não comeu coisa alguma, e, terminados eles, teve fome. E disse-lhe o diabo: Se tu és o Filho de Deus, dize a esta pedra que se transforme em pão. E Jesus lhe respondeu, dizendo: Escrito está que nem só de pão viverá o homem, mas de toda palavra de Deus. E o diabo, levando-o a um alto monte, mostrou-lhe, num momento de tempo, todos os reinos do mundo. E disse-lhe o diabo: Dar-te-ei a ti todo este poder e a sua glória, porque a mim me foi entregue, e dou-o a quem quero. Portanto, se tu me adorares, tudo será teu. E Jesus, respondendo, disse-lhe: Vai-te, Satanás, porque está escrito: Adorarás o Senhor, teu Deus, e só a ele servirás. Levou-o também a Jerusalém, e pô-lo sobre o pináculo do templo, e disse-lhe: Se tu és o Filho de Deus, lança-te daqui abaixo, 10 porque está escrito: Mandará aos seus anjos, acerca de ti, que te guardem 11 e que te sustenham nas mãos, para que nunca tropeces com o teu pé em alguma pedra. 12 E Jesus, respondendo, disse-lhe: Dito está: Não tentarás ao Senhor, teu Deus. 13 E, acabando o diabo toda a tentação, ausentou-se dele por algum tempo.

Jesus é expulso de Nazaré(B)

14 Então, pela virtude do Espírito, voltou Jesus para a Galileia, e a sua fama correu por todas as terras em derredor. 15 E ensinava nas suas sinagogas e por todos era louvado.

16 E, chegando a Nazaré, onde fora criado, entrou num dia de sábado, segundo o seu costume, na sinagoga e levantou-se para ler. 17 E foi-lhe dado o livro do profeta Isaías; e, quando abriu o livro, achou o lugar em que estava escrito: 18 O Espírito do Senhor é sobre mim, pois que me ungiu para evangelizar os pobres, enviou-me a curar os quebrantados do coração, 19 a apregoar liberdade aos cativos, a dar vista aos cegos, a pôr em liberdade os oprimidos, a anunciar o ano aceitável do Senhor. 20 E, cerrando o livro e tornando a dá-lo ao ministro, assentou-se; e os olhos de todos na sinagoga estavam fitos nele. 21 Então, começou a dizer-lhes: Hoje se cumpriu esta Escritura em vossos ouvidos. 22 E todos lhe davam testemunho, e se maravilhavam das palavras de graça que saíam da sua boca, e diziam: Não é este o filho de José? 23 E ele lhes disse: Sem dúvida, me direis este provérbio: Médico, cura-te a ti mesmo; faze também aqui na tua pátria tudo o que ouvimos ter sido feito em Cafarnaum. 24 E disse: Em verdade vos digo que nenhum profeta é bem-recebido na sua pátria. 25 Em verdade vos digo que muitas viúvas existiam em Israel nos dias de Elias, quando o céu se cerrou por três anos e seis meses, de sorte que em toda a terra houve grande fome; 26 e a nenhuma delas foi enviado Elias, senão a Sarepta de Sidom, a uma mulher viúva. 27 E muitos leprosos havia em Israel no tempo do profeta Eliseu, e nenhum deles foi purificado, senão Naamã, o siro. 28 E todos, na sinagoga, ouvindo essas coisas, se encheram de ira. 29 E, levantando-se, o expulsaram da cidade e o levaram até ao cume do monte em que a cidade deles estava edificada, para dali o precipitarem. 30 Ele, porém, passando pelo meio deles, retirou-se.

A cura de um endemoninhado em Cafarnaum(C)

31 E desceu a Cafarnaum, cidade da Galileia, e os ensinava nos sábados. 32 E admiravam-se da sua doutrina, porque a sua palavra era com autoridade. 33 E estava na sinagoga um homem que tinha um espírito de um demônio imundo, e este exclamou em alta voz, 34 dizendo: Ah! Que temos nós contigo, Jesus Nazareno? Vieste a destruir-nos? Bem sei quem és: o Santo de Deus. 35 E Jesus o repreendeu, dizendo: Cala-te e sai dele. E o demônio, lançando-o por terra no meio do povo, saiu dele, sem lhe fazer mal. 36 E veio espanto sobre todos, e falavam uns e outros, dizendo: Que palavra é esta, que até aos espíritos imundos manda com autoridade e poder, e eles saem?

A cura da sogra de Pedro(D)

37 E a sua fama divulgava-se por todos os lugares, em redor daquela comarca.

38 Ora, levantando-se Jesus da sinagoga, entrou em casa de Simão; e a sogra de Simão estava enferma com muita febre; e rogaram-lhe por ela. 39 E, inclinando-se para ela, repreendeu a febre, e esta a deixou. E ela, levantando-se logo, servia-os.

40 E, ao pôr do sol, todos os que tinham enfermos de várias doenças lhos traziam; e, impondo as mãos sobre cada um deles, os curava. 41 E também de muitos saíam demônios, clamando e dizendo: Tu és o Cristo, o Filho de Deus. E ele, repreendendo-os, não os deixava falar, pois sabiam que ele era o Cristo.

42 E, sendo já dia, saiu e foi para um lugar deserto; e a multidão o procurava e chegou junto dele; e o detinham, para que não se ausentasse deles. 43 Ele, porém, lhes disse: Também é necessário que eu anuncie a outras cidades o evangelho do Reino de Deus, porque para isso fui enviado. 44 E pregava nas sinagogas da Galileia.
