# Matthew 4 (New King James Version)
Satan Tempts Jesus
##### Chapter 4
###### 1 Then Jesus was led up by 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,** **'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 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:
'He shall give His angels charge over you,'
and,
'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,** **'You shall not** **tempt the Lord** your God.' **"**
###### 8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and 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, **"Away with you, Satan! For it is written,** **'You shall worship the Lord** your God, and Him only you shall serve.' **"**
###### 11 Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him.Jesus Begins His Galilean Ministry
###### 12 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 land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,
_By_ the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,
Galilee of the Gentiles:
###### 16 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 From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, **"Repent, for the kingdom of heaven** **is at hand."**Four Fishermen Called as Disciples
###### 18 And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon 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** **I will make you fishers of men."**
###### 20 They immediately left _their_ nets and followed Him.
###### 21 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
###### 23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people.
###### 24 Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they 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 Great multitudes followed Him--from Galilee, and _from_ Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.
