1The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.G746G2098G2424G5547G5207G2316 2As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way,G5613G1125G1722G4396G2400G1473G649G3450G32G4253G4675G4383G3739G2680G4675G3598G1715G4675 3the voice of one crying in the wilderness: 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight,'"G5456G994G1722G2048G2090G3598G2962G4160G846G5147G2117 4John appeared, baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.G2491G1096G907G1722G2048G2532G2784G908G3341G1519G859G266 5And all the country of Judea and all Jerusalem were going out to him and were being baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.G2532G1607G4314G846G3956G5561G2449G2532G2415G2532G907G3956G907G5259G846G1722G4215G2446G1843G846G266 6Now John was clothed with camel's hair and wore a leather belt around his waist and ate locusts and wild honey.G1161G2491G2258G1746G2574G2359G2532G2223G1193G4012G846G3751G2532G2068G200G2532G66G3192 7And he preached, saying, "After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.G2532G2784G3004G2064G2478G3450G3694G3450G2438G3739G846G5266G1510G3756G2425G2955G3089 8I have baptized you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."G1473G3303G907G5209G1722G5204G1161G846G907G5209G1722G40G4151

9In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.G2532G1096G1722G1565G2250G2424G2064G575G3478G1056G2532G907G5259G2491G1519G2446 10And when he came up out of the water, immediately he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.G2532G2112G305G575G5204G1492G3772G4977G2532G4151G5616G4058G2597G1909G846 11And a voice came from heaven, "You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased."G2532G1096G5456G1537G3772G4771G1488G3450G27G5207G1722G3739G2106

The Temptation of Jesus

12The Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness.G2532G2117G4151G1544G846G1519G2048 13And he was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan. And he was with the wild animals, and the angels were ministering to him.G2532G2258G1563G1722G2048G5062G2250G3985G5259G4567G2532G2258G3326G2342G2532G32G1247G846

14Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God,G1161G3326G2491G3860G2424G2064G1519G1056G2784G2098G932G2316 15and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel."G2532G3004G3754G2540G4137G2532G932G2316G1448G3340G2532G4100G1722G2098

Jesus Calls the First Disciples

16Passing alongside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.G1161G4043G3844G2281G1056G1492G4613G2532G406G846G80G906G293G1722G2281G1063G2258G231 17And Jesus said to them, "Follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men."G2532G2424G2036G846G1205G3694G3450G2532G4160G5209G1096G231G444 18And immediately they left their nets and followed him.G2532G2112G863G846G1350G190G846 19And going on a little farther, he saw James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, who were in their boat mending the nets.G2532G4260G3641G4260G1564G1492G2385G3588G2199G2532G2491G846G80G846G2532G1722G4143G2675G1350 20And immediately he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants and followed him.G2532G2112G2564G846G2532G863G846G3962G2199G1722G4143G3326G3411G565G3694G846

Jesus Heals a Man with an Unclean Spirit

21And they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath he entered the synagogue and was teaching.G2532G1531G1519G2584G2532G2112G4521G1525G1519G4864G1321 22And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one who had authority, and not as the scribes.G2532G1605G1909G846G1322G1063G1321G2258G846G5613G2192G1849G2532G3756G5613G1122 23And immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit. And he cried out,G2532G2258G1722G846G4864G444G1722G169G4151G2532G349 24"What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God."G3004G1436G5101G2254G2532G4671G2424G3479G2064G622G2248G1492G4571G5101G1488G40G2316 25But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be silent, and come out of him!"G2532G2424G2008G846G3004G5392G2532G1831G1537G846 26And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying out with a loud voice, came out of him.G2532G169G4151G4682G846G2532G2896G3173G5456G1831G1537G846 27And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him."G2532G2284G3956G2284G5620G4802G4314G846G3004G5101G2076G3778G5101G2537G1322G5124G3754G2596G1849G2004G2532G169G4151G2532G5219G846 28And at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee.G1161G2117G846G189G1831G1519G3650G4066G1056

Jesus Heals Many

29And immediately he left the synagogue and entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.G2532G2112G1831G1537G4864G2064G1519G3614G4613G2532G406G3326G2385G2532G2491 30Now Simon's mother-in-law lay ill with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.G1161G4613G3994G2621G4445G2532G2112G3004G846G4012G846 31And he came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and the fever left her, and she began to serve them.G2532G4334G2902G846G5495G1453G846G1453G2532G2112G4446G863G846G2532G1247G846 32That evening at sundown they brought to him all who were sick or oppressed by demons.G1161G1096G3798G3753G2246G1416G5342G4314G846G3956G2192G2560G2532G1139 33And the whole city was gathered together at the door.G2532G3650G4172G2258G1996G4314G2374 34And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. And he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him.G2532G2323G4183G2192G2560G4164G3554G2532G1544G4183G1140G2532G863G3756G1140G2980G3754G1492G846

Jesus Preaches in Galilee

35And rising very early in the morning, while it was still dark, he departed and went out to a desolate place, and there he prayed.G2532G4404G450G3029G1773G1831G2532G565G1519G2048G5117G2546G4336 36And Simon and those who were with him searched for him,G2532G4613G2532G3326G846G2614G846 37and they found him and said to him, "Everyone is looking for you."G2532G2147G846G3004G846G3754G3956G2212G4571 38And he said to them, "Let us go on to the next towns, that I may preach there also, for that is why I came out."G2532G3004G846G71G1519G2192G2969G2443G2784G2546G1063G1519G5124G1831 39And he went throughout all Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and casting out demons.G2532G2784G2258G1722G846G4864G1519G3650G1056G2532G1544G1140

Jesus Cleanses a Leper

40And a leper came to him, imploring him, and kneeling said to him, "If you will, you can make me clean."G2532G2064G3015G4314G846G3870G846G2532G1120G846G2532G3004G846G3754G1437G2309G1410G2511G3165G2511 41Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand and touched him and said to him, "I will; be clean."G1161G2424G4697G1614G5495G680G846G2532G3004G846G2309G2511 42And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was made clean.G2532G846G2036G2112G3014G565G575G846G2532G2511 43And Jesus sternly charged him and sent him away at once,G2532G1690G846G2112G1544G846G1544 44and said to him, "See that you say nothing to anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, for a proof to them."G2532G3004G846G3708G2036G3367G3367G235G5217G1166G4572G2409G2532G4374G4012G4675G2512G3739G3475G4367G1519G3142G846 45But he went out and began to talk freely about it, and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was out in desolate places, and people were coming to him from every quarter.G1161G1831G756G2784G4183G2532G1310G3056G5620G846G1410G3371G5320G1525G1519G4172G235G2258G1854G1722G2048G5117G2532G2064G4314G846G3836
