Tinukso ng Diyablo si Jesus(A)

Pagkatapos, dinala ng Espiritu si Jesus sa ilang upang tuksuhin ng diyablo. Pagkatapos mag-ayuno ng apatnapung araw at apatnapung gabi, siya ay nagutom. Dumating ang manunukso at sinabi sa kanya, “Kung ikaw nga ang Anak ng Diyos, ipag-utos mong maging tinapay ang mga batong ito.” Ngunit sumagot si Jesus,

“Nasusulat,
    ‘Hindi lamang sa tinapay nabubuhay ang tao,
    kundi sa bawat salitang nagmumula sa bibig ng Diyos.’ ”

Kasunod nito'y dinala siya ng diyablo sa banal na lungsod at inilagay siya sa tuktok ng templo. Sinabi nito sa kanya, “Kung ikaw nga ang Anak ng Diyos, tumalon ka mula riyan, sapagkat nasusulat,

‘Uutusan niya ang kanyang mga anghel na ingatan ka,’
    at ‘Mga kamay nila sa iyo ay sasalo,
    upang ang paa mo'y hindi masaktan sa bato.’ ”

Sinabi sa kanya ni Jesus, “Nasusulat din naman, ‘Huwag mong susubukin ang Panginoon mong Diyos.’ ” Muli, dinala siya ng diyablo sa isang napakataas na bundok at ipinakita sa kanya ang lahat ng mga kaharian sa sanlibutan at ang dangal ng mga ito. Sinabi nito sa kanya, “Ibibigay ko sa iyo ang lahat ng mga ito, kung yuyukod ka at sasamba sa akin.” 10 Sumagot sa kanya si Jesus, “Layas, Satanas! Sapagkat nasusulat,

‘Ang Panginoong Diyos ang iyong sasambahin
    at siya lamang ang iyong paglilingkuran.’ ”

11 At iniwan siya ng diyablo. Dumating naman ang mga anghel at siya'y pinaglingkuran.

Sinimulan ni Jesus ang Kanyang Gawain sa Galilea(B)

12 Nabalitaan ni Jesus na si Juan ay dinakip kaya't pumunta siya sa Galilea. 13 Nilisan niya ang Nazareth at siya'y nanirahan sa Capernaum na nasa tabing-dagat, sa nasasakupan ng Zebulun at Neftali, 14 upang matupad ang salita ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ni Propeta Isaias:

15 “Ang lupain ng Zebulun at ang lupain ng Neftali—
    daang patungo sa dagat, sa ibayo ng Jordan, Galilea ng mga Hentil—
16 Ang bayang itong nasasadlak sa kadiliman
    ay nakakita ng malaking tanglaw,
Sa kanilang nakaupo sa lilim ng kamatayan
    ay may liwanag na sumilang.”

17 Mula noon ay nagsimulang mangaral ng ganito si Jesus, “Magsisi kayo, sapagkat malapit nang dumating ang kaharian ng langit.”

Tinawag ni Jesus ang mga Unang Alagad(C)

18 Habang naglalakad sa baybayin ng lawa ng Galilea, nakita ni Jesus ang magkapatid na si Simon (na binansagang Pedro) at si Andres, na naghuhulog ng lambat sa dagat, sapagkat sila ay mga mangingisda. 19 At sinabi niya sa kanila, “Sumunod kayo sa akin at gagawin ko kayong mangingisda ng mga tao.” 20 Kaagad nilang iniwan ang kanilang mga lambat at sumunod sa kanya. 21 Sa paglalakad pa niya ay nakita niya ang magkapatid na Santiago at Juan, mga anak ni Zebedeo. Nasa bangka silang kasama ang kanilang ama at nag-aayos ng mga lambat. Tinawag niya ang magkapatid. 22 Agad nilang iniwan ang bangka pati ang kanilang ama, at sumunod sa kanya.

Nangaral at Nagpagaling ng mga Maysakit si Jesus(D)

23 Nilibot ni Jesus ang buong Galilea sa pagtuturo sa mga sinagoga ng mga Judio at pagpapahayag ng Magandang Balita ng kaharian. Pinagagaling niya ang lahat ng uri ng sakit at karamdaman ng mga tao. 24 Kaya't kumalat ang balita tungkol sa kanya sa buong Syria. Dinala sa kanya ang lahat ng maysakit, ang mga pinahihirapan ng iba't ibang uri ng sakit at kirot, ang mga sinasaniban ng mga demonyo, ang mga may epilepsiya, at ang mga paralitiko. Silang lahat ay kanyang pinagaling. 25 At sumunod sa kanya ang napakaraming tao mula sa Galilea at sa Decapolis, mula sa Jerusalem at Judea, at mula sa ibayo ng Jordan.

Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.

And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,

And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

12 Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee;

13 And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:

14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;

16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

18 And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.

20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

21 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.

22 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.

23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.

24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.

25 And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.

The Temptation of Jesus

Then(A) Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the Devil.(B) After He had fasted 40 days and 40 nights,(C) He was hungry. Then the tempter approached Him and said, “If You are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”(D)

But He answered, “It is written:

Man must not live on bread alone
but on every word that comes
from the mouth of God.(E)[a]

Then the Devil took Him to the holy city,[b] had Him stand on the pinnacle of the temple,(F) and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written:

He will give His angels(G) orders concerning you,
and they will support you with their hands
so that you will not strike
your foot against a stone.(H)[c]

Jesus told him, “It is also written: Do not test the Lord your God.(I)[d]

Again, the Devil took Him to a very high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. And he said to Him, “I will give You all these things if You will fall down and worship me.”[e]

10 Then Jesus told him, “Go away,[f] Satan! For it is written:

Worship the Lord your God,
and serve only(J) Him.[g]

11 Then the Devil left Him, and immediately angels came and began to serve Him.(K)

Ministry in Galilee

12 When He heard that John had been arrested,(L) He withdrew into Galilee.(M) 13 He left Nazareth behind and went to live in Capernaum(N) by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali. 14 This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:

15 Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali,
along the sea road, beyond the Jordan,
Galilee of the Gentiles!
16 The people who live in darkness
have seen a great light,
and for those living in the shadowland of death,
light has dawned.[h](O)[i]

17 From then on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, because the kingdom of heaven(P) has come near!”

The First Disciples

18 As(Q) He was walking along the Sea of Galilee,(R) He saw two brothers, Simon, who was called Peter, and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the sea, since they were fishermen. 19 “Follow Me,” He told them, “and I will make you fish for[j] people!” 20 Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.

21 Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and his brother John. They were in a boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and He called them. 22 Immediately they left the boat and their father and followed Him.

Teaching, Preaching, and Healing

23 Jesus was going all over Galilee,(S) teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every[k] disease and sickness among the people.(T) 24 Then the news about Him spread throughout Syria.(U) So they brought to Him all those who were afflicted, those suffering from various diseases and intense pains, the demon-possessed, the epileptics, and the paralytics.(V) And He healed them. 25 Large crowds followed Him from Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.(W)
