Matthew 4
King James Version
4 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.
3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.
4 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.
5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,
6 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.
7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
8 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;
9 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.
Mateus 4
Portuguese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
A tentação de Jesus
(Mc 1.12-13; Lc 4.1-13)
4 Então, Jesus foi levado pelo Espírito ao deserto para ser tentado pelo diabo. 2 Depois de não comer nada durante quarenta dias e quarenta noites, Jesus teve fome. 3 Então o diabo[a] se aproximou dele e disse:
—Se você é mesmo o Filho de Deus, mande estas pedras se transformarem em pão.
4 Jesus, porém, respondeu:
—As Escrituras dizem: “O ser humano não vive só de pão, mas de tudo o que Deus diz”.(A)
5 Então o diabo o levou à cidade santa de Jerusalém e o colocou na parte mais alta do templo 6 e lhe disse:
—Se você é mesmo o Filho de Deus, atire-se daqui, pois as Escrituras dizem:
“Deus dará ordens aos seus anjos
para que cuidem de você.
Eles vão segurá-lo com as suas mãos
para que nem mesmo os seus pés se machuquem nas pedras”.(B)
7 Jesus, porém, respondeu:
—Mas as Escrituras também dizem: “Não ponha à prova o Senhor, seu Deus”.(C)
8 Então o diabo o levou para um lugar muito alto e lhe mostrou todos os reinos do mundo e a glória que eles tinham. 9 Depois, disse:
—Eu lhe darei tudo isto se você se ajoelhar e me adorar.
10 Jesus lhe disse:
—Vá embora daqui, Satanás! As Escrituras dizem: “Adore ao Senhor, seu Deus, e sirva somente a ele”.(D)
11 Depois disto, o diabo o deixou e anjos vieram e o serviram.
Jesus começa o seu trabalho na Galileia
(Mc 1.14-15; Lc 4.14-15)
12 Quando Jesus ouviu dizer que João tinha sido preso, voltou para a Galileia, 13 mas não permaneceu em Nazaré. Ele foi viver em Cafarnaum, cidade próxima do lago da Galileia, na região de Zebulom e Naftali. 14 Isto aconteceu para que se cumprisse o que tinha sido dito por Deus por meio do profeta Isaías:
15 “Terra de Zebulom e de Naftali!
Caminho do mar e terra do outro lado do rio Jordão!
Galileia, onde muitos estrangeiros vivem!
16 O povo que vive na escuridão
viu uma grande luz,
e até os que vivem nas regiões sombrias da morte
foram iluminados por esta luz”.(E)
17 Daí em diante, Jesus começou a proclamar a mensagem, dizendo:
—Mudem a sua forma de pensar e de viver, pois o reino de Deus está próximo.
Os primeiros discípulos
(Mc 1.16-20; Lc 5.1-11)
18 Jesus estava andando pela beira do lago da Galileia quando viu dois irmãos: Simão, também conhecido como Pedro, e André. Eles eram pescadores e estavam jogando suas redes no lago 19 quando Jesus lhes disse:
—Sigam-me e eu tornarei vocês em pescadores de pessoas. 20 E eles deixaram as suas redes naquele momento e o seguiram.
21 Jesus continuou caminhando e encontrou outros dois irmãos, Tiago e João, filhos de Zebedeu. Eles estavam no barco com seu pai, consertando as suas redes. Jesus os chamou 22 e eles, imediatamente, deixaram seu pai e o barco e o seguiram.
Jesus ensina e cura muita gente
(Lc 6.17-19)
23 Jesus viajou por toda a região da Galileia, ensinando nas sinagogas, proclamando as Boas Novas do reino de Deus e curando todo tipo de doença e de enfermidade entre o povo. 24 A fama de Jesus se espalhou por toda a região da Síria e o povo levou a ele todos os doentes que sofriam de vários tipos de doenças e males. Ele curou a todos: os que tinham dores, os que estavam possuídos por demônios, os epiléticos e os paralíticos. 25 Muitas pessoas o seguiam. Esta gente vinha da Galileia, de Decápolis, de Jerusalém, da Judeia e também de toda a região situada do outro lado do rio Jordão.

Matthew 4
New King James Version
Satan Tempts Jesus(A)
4 Then (B)Jesus was led up by (C)the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. 3 Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”
4 But He answered and said, “It is written, (D)‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”
5 Then the devil took Him up (E)into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6 and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written:
(F)‘He shall give His angels charge over you,’
and,
(G)‘In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’ ”
7 Jesus said to him, “It is written again, (H)‘You shall not [a]tempt the Lord your God.’ ”
8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and (I)showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
10 Then Jesus said to him, [b]“Away with you, Satan! For it is written, (J)‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’ ”
11 Then the devil (K)left Him, and behold, (L)angels came and ministered to Him.
Jesus Begins His Galilean Ministry(M)
12 (N)Now when Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, He departed to Galilee. 13 And leaving Nazareth, He came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the regions of Zebulun and Naphtali, 14 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:
15 “The(O) land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,
By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,
Galilee of the Gentiles:
16 (P)The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light,
And upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death
Light has dawned.”
17 (Q)From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, (R)“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven [c]is at hand.”
Four Fishermen Called as Disciples(S)
18 (T)And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon (U)called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. 19 Then He said to them, “Follow Me, and (V)I will make you fishers of men.” 20 (W)They immediately left their nets and followed Him.
21 (X)Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them, 22 and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.
Jesus Heals a Great Multitude(Y)
23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, (Z)teaching in their synagogues, preaching (AA)the gospel of the kingdom, (AB)and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people. 24 Then [d]His fame went throughout all Syria; and they (AC)brought to Him all sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them. 25 (AD)Great multitudes followed Him—from Galilee, and from [e]Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.
