|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 1
|
|
###### 1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
|
|
###### 2 As it is written in the Prophets:
|
|
"Behold, I send My messenger before Your face,
|
|
Who will prepare Your way before You."
|
|
|
|
###### 3 "The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
|
|
'Prepare the way of the Lord;
|
|
Make His paths straight.' "
|
|
|
|
###### 4 John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
|
|
###### 5 Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, went out to him and were all baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.
|
|
|
|
###### 6 Now John was clothed with camel's hair and with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.
|
|
###### 7 And he preached, saying, "There comes One after me who is mightier than I, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to stoop down and loose.
|
|

|
|

|
|
###### 11 Then a voice came from heaven, "You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."Satan Tempts Jesus

|
###### 16 And as He walked by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
|
|
###### 17 Then Jesus said to them, **"Follow Me, and I will make you become** **fishers of men."**
|
|
###### 18 They immediately left their nets and followed Him.
|
|
|
|
###### 19 When He had gone a little farther from there, He saw James the _son_ of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also _were_ in the boat mending their nets.

|

|
|
|
|
###### 23 Now there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit. And he cried out,
|
|
###### 24 saying, "Let _us_ alone! What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You come to destroy us? I know who You are--the Holy One of God!"
|
|
|
|
###### 25 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, **"Be quiet, and come out of him!"**
|
|
###### 26 And when the unclean spirit had convulsed him and cried out with a loud voice, he came out of him.
|
|
###### 27 Then they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? What new doctrine _is_ this? For with authority He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him."
|
|
###### 28 And immediately His fame spread throughout all the region around Galilee.Peter's Mother-in-Law Healed

|

|
|
###### 37 When they found Him, they said to Him, "Everyone is looking for You."
|
|
|
|
###### 38 But He said to them, **"Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because** **for this purpose I have come forth."**

|
|
###### 41 Then Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched out _His_ hand and touched him, and said to him, **"I am willing; be cleansed."**
|
|
###### 42 As soon as He had spoken, immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.
|
|
###### 43 And He strictly warned him and sent him away at once,
|
|
###### 44 and said to him, **"See that you say nothing to anyone; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing those things** **which Moses commanded, as a testimony to them."**
|
|
|
|
###### 45 However, he went out and began to proclaim _it_ freely, and to spread the matter, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter the city, but was outside in deserted places; and they came to Him from every direction.
