¶ Men konmansman Bon Nouvèl ki pale sou Jezikri, Pitit Bondye a.

Nan liv pwofèt Ezayi a, men sa ki te ekri: Bondye di: Men m'ap voye mesaje m' lan devan ou. La louvri chemen an pou ou.

Se vwa yon nonm k'ap rele nan dezè a: Pare gran wout Seyè nou an. Plani chemen an byen plani pou li.

Se konsa Jan te parèt nan dezè a, li t'ap batize, li t'ap mache bay mesaj sa a: -Tounen vin jwenn Bondye. vin resevwa batèm, epi Bondye va padonnen peche nou yo.

Tout moun nan peyi Jide a ansanm ak tout pèp lavil Jerizalèm lan te vin jwenn li: yo te konfese peche yo devan tout moun, epi Jan te batize yo nan larivyè Jouden an.

Jan te mete yon rad pwal chamo sou li, ak yon sentiwon an po mare nan ren li. Se krikèt ak gato myèl li te jwenn nan bwa li te manje.

Li t'ap mache bay mesaj sa a: -Moun k'ap vin apre m' lan gen plis pouvwa anpil pase m'. Mwen pa bon ase pou m' ta bese demare sapat ki nan pye li.

Mwen menm, mwen batize nou nan dlo. Men li menm, la batize nou nan Sentespri a.

¶ Menm epòk sa a, Jezi te soti Nazarèt, yon bouk nan peyi Galile. Lè sa a, Jan te batize l' nan larivyè Jouden an.

10 Antan Jezi t'ap soti nan dlo a, li wè syèl la louvri, epi Lespri Bondye a desann sou li an fòm yon pijon.

11 Li tande yon vwa ki soti nan syèl la ki di: -Ou se pitit mwen renmen anpil la. Ou fè kè m' kontan anpil.

12 Touswit apre sa, Lespri Bondye a pouse Jezi al nan dezè a.

13 Li rete la pandan karant jou, epi se la Satan vin tante l'. Jezi t'ap viv nan mitan bèt bwa yo, epi zanj Bondye yo t'ap okipe li.

14 ¶ Apre yo te fin mete Jan nan prizon, Jezi ale nan peyi Galile pou l' te fè konnen Bon Nouvèl Bondye voye a.

15 Li t'ap di yo konsa: -Jou a rive. Koulye a, Bondye ki wa nan syèl la ap vin pran pouvwa a nan men li. Tounen vin jwenn Bondye. Asepte Bon Nouvèl la.

16 Pandan Jezi t'ap mache bò lanmè Galile a, li wè de pechè pwason, Simon ak Andre, frè li a. Yo t'ap voye privye nan lanmè a.

17 Jezi di yo konsa: -vin jwenn mwen. m'a fè nou tounen pechè moun pito.

18 Lamenm, yo kite privye yo, y' ale avèk li.

19 Jezi vanse pi lwen, li wè de pitit gason Zebede yo, Jak ak Jan, frè li. Yo te chita nan kannòt yo a, yo t'ap repare privye yo.

20 Lamenm, Jezi rele yo. Yo kite Zebede, papa yo, nan kannòt la ansanm ak ouvrye yo. Y' ale avèk Jezi.

21 Apre sa, Jezi ale ak disip li yo nan yon lavil yo rele Kapènawòm. Jou repo a, Jezi antre nan sinagòg la; li kòmanse moutre moun yo anpil bagay.

22 Yo te sezi tande sa l' t'ap moutre yo. Se pa t' menm jan avèk dirèktè lalwa yo, paske li te pale ak yo tankou yon moun ki otorize.

23 ¶ Lè sa a, yon nonm ki te gen yon move lespri sou li vin antre nan sinagòg la, li pran rele:

24 -ey Jezi, moun Nazarèt, kisa nou gen avè ou? Ou vin isit la pou detwi nou? Mwen konnen byen pwòp ki moun ou ye. Ou se moun Bondye chwazi a.

25 Jezi pale byen fò ak move lespri ki te sou nonm lan, li di li: -Pe la! Soti sou nonm sa a.

26 Move lespri a souke nonm lan byen souke, li bay yon gwo rèl, epi li soti, li ale.

27 Tout moun yo te sitèlman sezi, yonn t'ap mande lòt: -Sa sa ye la a menm! Sa se yon lòt bagay l'ap moutre nou la a. Menm move lespri yo, li pase yo lòd ak otorite, yo obeyi li.

28 Se tout moun ki t'ap nonmen non l' nan peyi Galile a.

29 ¶ Apre sa, yo soti kite sinagòg la, y' ale ansanm ak Jak ak Jan lakay Simon ak Andre.

30 Bèlmè Simon an te kouche ak lafyèv. Rive Jezi rive lakay la, yo di l' sa.

31 Lè sa a, li pwoche bò madanm lan, li pran men l', li fè l' leve. Latou, lafyèv la kite l', epi madanm lan resevwa yo.

32 Aswè, apre solèy fin kouche, yo mennen tout moun malad yo ansanm ak tou sa ki te gen move lespri sou yo bay Jezi.

33 Tout moun lavil la te sanble devan pòt kay la.

34 Lè sa a, Jezi te geri anpil moun ki te soufri divès maladi; li te chase anpil move lespri. Men, li pa t' kite move lespri yo pale, paske yo te konnen ki moun li te ye.

35 Nan granmaten, byen bonè, li pa t' ankò fè klè, Jezi leve, li soti li kite lavil la, li al yon kote ki pa gen moun. La li t'ap lapriyè.

36 Simon ak lòt zanmi l' yo soti, yo t'ap chache Jezi.

37 Lè yo jwenn li, yo di l' konsa: -Tout moun ap chache ou wi.

38 Men li reponn yo: -Ann al yon lòt kote, nan lòt bouk yo nan vwazinaj la. Fòk mwen fè yo konnen mesaj la tou. Se pou sa menm mwen vini.

39 Se konsa li te ale toupatou nan peyi Galile, li t'ap mache bay mesaj la nan sinagòg yo, li t'ap chase move lespri yo.

40 ¶ Yon nonm ki te gen lalèp vin jwenn Jezi; li tonbe ajenou devan li, li mande l' sekou; li di l' konsa: -Si ou vle, ou kapab geri mwen.

41 Kè Jezi fè l' mal, li lonje men l', li manyen nonm lan, li di li: -Wi, mwen vle ou geri.

42 Menm lè a, lalèp la kite l', li geri, li te nan kondisyon pou fè sèvis Bondye.

43 Apre sa, Jezi voye l' ale, li pase l' lòd byen sevè.

44 Li di l' konsa: -Piga ou pale sa ak pesonn. Men, al fè prèt la wè ki jan ou ye. Apre sa, wa ofri sa Moyiz te bay lòd pou ofri a. Konsa wa bay tout moun prèv ou geri.

45 Men, nonm lan pati, li pran mache fè konnen bagay la toupatou. Li sitèlman gaye nouvèl la, Jezi pa t' kapab antre ankò nan okenn lavil pou moun pa t' wè li. Li te pito rete andeyò, kote ki pa gen moun. Men, moun te soti toupatou vin jwenn li.

John the Baptist Begins His Ministry

The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ.[a] Just as it is written in the prophet Isaiah,

“Behold, I am sending my messenger before your face,
    who will prepare your way,
the voice of one shouting in the wilderness,
    ‘Prepare the way of the Lord,
    make straight his paths!’”[b]

John was there baptizing in the wilderness, proclaiming[c] a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. And all the Judean region and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem went out to him and were being baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins. And John was dressed in camel’s hair and a belt made of leather around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey. And he was preaching, saying, “One who is more powerful than I is coming after me, of whom I am not worthy to bend down and[d] untie the strap of his sandals. I baptized you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”

The Baptism of Jesus

And it happened that in those days Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized in the Jordan by John. 10 And immediately as he[e] was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens being split apart and the Spirit descending like a dove on him. 11 And a voice came from heaven, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”

The Temptation of Jesus

12 And immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness. 13 And he was in the wilderness forty days being tempted by Satan. And he was with the wild animals, and the angels were ministering to him.

Public Ministry in Galilee

14 And after[f] John had been taken into custody,[g] Jesus went into Galilee proclaiming the gospel of God 15 and saying, “The time is fulfilled and the kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe in the gospel!”

Jesus Calls His First Disciples

16 And as he[h] was passing by along the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew, Simon’s brother, casting a net[i] into the sea (for they were fishermen). 17 And Jesus said to them, “Follow[j] me and I will make you become fishers of people.” 18 And immediately they left their nets and[k] followed him. 19 And going on a little farther, he saw James the son of Zebedee and his brother John, and they were in the boat mending the nets. 20 And immediately he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and[l] went away after him. 21 And they went into Capernaum and immediately on the Sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue.[m]

A Man with an Unclean Spirit Healed

22 And they were amazed at his teaching, because he was teaching them like one who had authority, and not like the scribes. 23 And so then there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit, and he cried out, 24 saying, “Leave us alone,[n] Jesus the Nazarene! Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!” 25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” 26 And after[o] convulsing him and crying out with a loud voice, the unclean spirit came out of him. 27 And they were all amazed, so that they began to discuss with one another, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He even commands the unclean spirits and they obey him.” 28 And the report about him then went out everywhere in the whole surrounding region of Galilee.

Many at Capernaum Are Healed

29 And so then he departed from the synagogue and[p] came into the house of Simon and Andrew with James and John. 30 Now Simon’s mother-in-law was lying down, suffering with a fever, and at once they told him about her. 31 And he came and[q] raised her up by[r] taking hold of her[s] hand, and the fever left her, and she began to serve them.

32 Now when it[t] was evening, when the sun had set, they began bringing[u] to him all those who were sick[v] and those who were demon-possessed. 33 And the whole town was gathered together at the door. 34 And he healed many who were sick[w] with various diseases and expelled many demons. And he did not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him.

Preaching Throughout Galilee

35 And getting up early in the morning while it was very dark, he departed and went to a deserted place, and there he was praying. 36 And Simon and those who were with him searched diligently for him. 37 And they found him and said to him, “Everyone is looking for you!” 38 And he said to them, “Let us go elsewhere, into the neighboring rural towns, so that I can preach there also, because I have come out for this very reason.” 39 And he went into all Galilee preaching in their synagogues and expelling demons.

A Leper Cleansed

40 And a leper came to him, entreating him and kneeling down, saying[x] to him, “If you are willing, you are able to make me clean.” 41 And becoming angry,[y] he stretched out his hand and[z] touched him[aa], and said to him, “I am willing; be made clean.” 42 And immediately the leprosy went away from him and he was made clean. 43 And warning him sternly, he sent him away at once. 44 And he said to him, “See to it that you say nothing to anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest and bring for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them. 45 But he went out and[ab] began to proclaim it[ac] freely and to spread abroad the account, so that he was no longer able to enter publicly into a town. But he was staying outside in deserted places, and they were coming to him from all directions.
