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 for forty days and forty 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)

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, stood him 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.[b](H)

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

Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendour. And he said to him, ‘I will give you all these things if you will fall down and worship me.’[d]

10 Then Jesus told him, ‘Go away,[e] Satan! For it is written: Worship the Lord your God, and serve only him.[f](J)

11 Then the devil left him, and 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 and went to live in Capernaum(N) by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali. 14 This was to fulfil what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:

15 Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali,
along the road by the sea, 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 land of the shadow of death,
a light has dawned.[g][h](O)

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 is called Peter), and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the sea – for they were fishermen. 19 ‘Follow me,’ he told them, ‘and I will make you fish for[i] 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, preparing their nets, and he called them. 22 Immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.

Teaching, Preaching, and Healing

23 Now Jesus began to go all over Galilee,(S) teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every[j] disease and sickness[k] 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, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.(W)

Isusova kušnja

(Mk 1,12-13; Lk 4,1-13)

Potom je Duh odveo Isusa u pustinju da ga iskuša đavao. Isus je postio četrdeset dana i četrdeset noći pa je ogladnio. Tada mu je prišao napasnik[a] i rekao: »Ako si zaista Božji Sin, reci ovom kamenju da se pretvori u kruh.«

No Isus mu je odgovorio: »Pisano je u Svetom pismu:

‘Čovjek ne živi samo od kruha
    nego i od svake riječi koju Bog izgovori.’«[b]

Zatim ga je đavao odveo u sveti grad Jeruzalem i postavio ga na vrh Hrama pa mu rekao: »Ako si Božji Sin, baci se dolje! Jer, pisano je:

‘On će zapovjediti svojim anđelima da te čuvaju
    i oni će te na rukama nositi,
da ti noga o kamen ne udari.’«[c]

Isus mu je odgovorio: »Pisano je i ovo:

‘Ne iskušavaj Gospodina, Boga svojega!’«[d]

Potom je đavao odveo Isusa na vrlo visoku planinu i pokazao mu sva kraljevstva svijeta i njihovu raskoš pa mu se opet obratio: »Dat ću ti sve ovo ako ćeš mi se pokloniti i mene štovati.«

10 A Isus mu je odgovorio: »Odlazi, Sotono! Jer, pisano je:

‘Štuj Gospodina, Boga svojega i njemu jedinom služi!’«[e]

11 Tada ga je đavao ostavio, a anđeli su došli i služili mu.

Isus počinje djelovati u Galileji

(Mk 1,14-15; Lk 4,14-15)

12 Kad je Isus čuo da je Ivan zatvoren, vratio se u Galileju. 13 No nije ostao u Nazaretu, nego se nastanio u Kafarnaumu, gradu pokraj Galilejskog jezera, na području Zebulonovog i Naftalijevog plemena. 14 Tako se ispunilo što je rekao prorok Izaija:

15 »Zemlja Zebulonova i zemlja Naftalijeva,
    uz put prema moru, s one strane rijeke Jordan,
    Galileja zemlja nežidova!
16 Narod koji živi u tami
    ugledao je veliko svjetlo;
onima koji žive u mračnoj zemlji smrti
    zasjala je svjetlost.«[f]

17 Otad je Isus počeo propovijedati: »Obratite se, jer je Kraljevstvo nebesko blizu!«

Isus poziva prve učenike

(Mk 1,16-20; Lk 5,1-11)

18 Kad je Isus prolazio pokraj Galilejskog jezera, ugledao je dvojicu braće—Šimuna, zvanog Petar, i njegovog brata Andriju kako bacaju mrežu u jezero, jer su bili ribari, 19 pa im je rekao: »Pođite za mnom, a ja ću vas učiniti ribarima ljudi.« 20 Oni su odmah ostavili svoje mreže i krenuli za Isusom.

21 Isus je pošao dalje i ugledao drugu dvojicu braće, Jakova Zebedejevog i njegovog brata Ivana. Bili su u čamcu sa svojim ocem Zebedejem i krpali mreže. 22 Pozvao ih je i oni su odmah krenuli za njim. Ostavili su i čamac i svoga oca.

Isus poučava i iscjeljuje

(Lk 6,17-19)

23 Isus je obišao cijelu Galileju i poučavao u sinagogama[g], propovijedajući Radosnu vijest o Božjem kraljevstvu. Liječio je i svakovrsne bolesti i slabosti u narodu. 24 Vijest o njemu proširila se po cijeloj Siriji pa su mu dovodili sve koji su bolovali od raznih bolesti i bili u mukama, opsjednute zlim duhovima, padavičare i nepokretne, a on ih je ozdravljao. 25 Slijedilo ga je veliko mnoštvo iz Galileje, Dekapolisa, Jeruzalema, Judeje i s druge strane rijeke Jordan.

The Temptation of Jesus

(A)Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness (B)to be tempted by the devil. And after He had (C)fasted for forty days and forty nights, He [a]then became hungry. And (D)the tempter came and said to Him, “If You are the (E)Son of God, command that these stones become bread.” But He answered and said, “It is written: ‘(F)Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes out of the mouth of God.’”

Then the devil *took Him along into (G)the holy city and had Him stand on the pinnacle of the temple, and he *said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down; for it is written:

(H)He will give His angels orders concerning You’;

and

On their hands they will lift You up,
So that You do not strike Your foot against a stone.’”

Jesus said to him, [b]On the other hand, it is written: ‘(I)You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.’”

(J)Again, the devil *took Him along to a very high mountain and *showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory; and he said to Him, “(K)All these things I will give You, if You fall down and [c]worship me.” 10 Then Jesus *said to him, “Go away, Satan! For it is written: ‘(L)You shall worship the Lord your God, and [d]serve Him only.’” 11 Then the devil *left Him; and behold, (M)angels came and began to serve Him.

Jesus Begins His Ministry

12 Now when Jesus heard that (N)John had been taken into custody, (O)He withdrew into Galilee; 13 and leaving Nazareth, He came and (P)settled in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali. 14 This happened so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet would be fulfilled:

15 (Q)The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,
[e]By the way of the sea, on the other side of the Jordan, Galilee of the [f]Gentiles
16 (R)The people who were sitting in darkness saw a great Light,
And those who were sitting in the land and shadow of death,
Upon them a Light dawned.”

17 (S)From that time Jesus began to [g]preach and say, (T)Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.”

The First Disciples

18 (U)Now as Jesus was walking by (V)the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, (W)Simon, who was called Peter, and his brother Andrew, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. 19 And He *said to them, [h]Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of people.” 20 Immediately they left their nets and followed Him. 21 Going on from there He saw two other brothers, [i](X)James the son of Zebedee, and his brother [j]John, in the boat with their father Zebedee, mending their nets; and He called them. 22 Immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.

Ministry in Galilee

23 Jesus was going (Y)about in all of Galilee, (Z)teaching in their synagogues and (AA)proclaiming the [k]gospel of the kingdom, and (AB)healing every disease and every sickness among the people.

24 And the news about Him spread (AC)throughout Syria; and they brought to Him all who were ill, those suffering with various diseases and severe pain, (AD)demon-possessed, people with (AE)epilepsy, and people who were (AF)paralyzed; and He healed them. 25 Large crowds (AG)followed Him from Galilee and (AH)the Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judea, and from (AI)beyond the Jordan.

Jesus Is Tested in the Wilderness(A)

Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted[a](B) by the devil.(C) After fasting forty days and forty nights,(D) he was hungry. The tempter(E) came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God,(F) tell these stones to become bread.”

Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’[b](G)

Then the devil took him to the holy city(H) and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,”(I) he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written:

“‘He will command his angels concerning you,
    and they will lift you up in their hands,
    so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’[c](J)

Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’[d](K)

Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.”

10 Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan!(L) For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’[e](M)

11 Then the devil left him,(N) and angels came and attended him.(O)

Jesus Begins to Preach

12 When Jesus heard that John had been put in prison,(P) he withdrew to Galilee.(Q) 13 Leaving Nazareth, he went and lived in Capernaum,(R) which was by the lake in the area of Zebulun and Naphtali— 14 to fulfill(S) what was said through the prophet Isaiah:

15 “Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali,
    the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan,
    Galilee of the Gentiles—
16 the people living in darkness
    have seen a great light;
on those living in the land of the shadow of death
    a light has dawned.”[f](T)

17 From that time on Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven(U) has come near.”

Jesus Calls His First Disciples(V)

18 As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee,(W) he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter(X) and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. 19 “Come, follow me,”(Y) Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” 20 At once they left their nets and followed him.(Z)

21 Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John.(AA) They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus called them, 22 and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.(AB)

Jesus Heals the Sick

23 Jesus went throughout Galilee,(AC) teaching in their synagogues,(AD) proclaiming the good news(AE) of the kingdom,(AF) and healing every disease and sickness among the people.(AG) 24 News about him spread all over Syria,(AH) and people brought to him all who were ill with various diseases, those suffering severe pain, the demon-possessed,(AI) those having seizures,(AJ) and the paralyzed;(AK) and he healed them. 25 Large crowds from Galilee, the Decapolis,[g] Jerusalem, Judea and the region across the Jordan followed him.(AL)
