Mark 1:9-15
New King James Version
John Baptizes Jesus(A)
9 (B)It came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 (C)And immediately, coming up [a]from the water, He saw the heavens [b]parting and the Spirit (D)descending upon Him like a dove. 11 Then a voice came from heaven, (E)“You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Satan Tempts Jesus(F)
12 (G)Immediately the Spirit [c]drove Him into the wilderness. 13 And He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; (H)and the angels ministered to Him.
Jesus Begins His Galilean Ministry(I)
14 (J)Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, (K)preaching the gospel [d]of the kingdom of God, 15 and saying, (L)“The time is fulfilled, and (M)the kingdom of God [e]is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.”
