Matthew 4:12-17
Lexham English Bible
Public Ministry in Galilee
12 Now when he[a] heard that John had been arrested,[b] he withdrew into Galilee. 13 And leaving Nazareth, he went and[c] lived in Capernaum by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali, 14 in order that what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah would be fulfilled, who said,
15 “Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali,
toward the sea,[d] on the other side of the Jordan,
Galilee of the Gentiles[e]—
16 the people who sit in darkness
have seen a great light,
and the ones who sit in the land and shadow of death,
a light has dawned on them.”[f]
17 From that time on, Jesus began to preach and to say, “Repent, because the kingdom of heaven is near.”
