1 The beginning of the Good News of Yeshua the Messiah, the Son of God.
|
1 The beginning of the gospel about 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.
|
2 It is written in Isaiah the prophet: "I will send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way"--
|
|
3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make ready the way of the Lord! Make his paths straight!'"
|
3 "a voice of one calling in the desert, 'Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him.' "
|
|
4 Yochanan came immersing in the wilderness and preaching the immersion of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
|
4 And so John came, baptizing in the desert region and preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
|
|
5 All the country of Yehudah and all those of Yerushalayim went out to him. They were immersed by him in the Yarden river, confessing their sins.
|
5 The whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem went out to him. Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River.
|
|
6 Yochanan was clothed with camel's hair and a leather belt around his loins. He ate locusts and wild honey.
|
6 John wore clothing made of camel's hair, with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.
|
|
7 He preached, saying, "After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
|
7 And this was his message: "After me will come one more powerful than I, the thongs of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.
|
|
8 I immersed you in water, but he will immerse you in the Ruach HaKodesh."
|
8 I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."
|
|
9 It happened in those days, that Yeshua came from Natzeret of the Galil, and was immersed by Yochanan in the Yarden.
|
9 At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
|
|
10 Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
|
10 As Jesus was coming up out of the water, he saw heaven being torn open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
|
|
11 A voice came out of the sky, "You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
|
11 And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased."
|
|
12 Immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness.
|
12 At once the Spirit sent him out into the desert,
|
|
13 He was there in the wilderness forty days tempted by Hasatan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels ministered to him.
|
13 and he was in the desert forty days, being tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals, and angels attended him.
|
|
14 Now after Yochanan was taken into custody, Yeshua came into the Galil, preaching the Good News of the kingdom of God,
|
14 After John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God.
|
|
15 and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand! Repent, and believe in the Good News."
|
15 "The time has come," he said. "The kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe the good news!"
|
|
16 Passing along by the sea of the Galil, he saw Shim`on and Andrai the brother of Shim`on casting a net in the sea, for they were fishermen.
|
16 As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen.
|
|
17 Yeshua said to them, "Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men."
|
17 "Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men."
|
|
18 Immediately they left their nets, and followed him.
|
18 At once they left their nets and followed him.
|
|
19 Going on a little further from there, he saw Ya`akov the son of Zavdai, and Yochanan, his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
|
19 When he had gone a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John in a boat, preparing their nets.
|
|
20 Immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zavdai, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
|
20 Without delay he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him.
|
|
21 They went into Kafar-Nachum, and immediately on the day of Shabbat he entered into the synagogue and taught.
|
21 They went to Capernaum, and when the Sabbath came, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach.
|
|
22 They were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the Sofrim.
|
22 The people were amazed at his teaching, because he taught them as one who had authority, not as the teachers of the law.
|
|
23 Immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
|
23 Just then a man in their synagogue who was possessed by an evil spirit cried out,
|
|
24 saying, "Ha! What do we have to do with you, Yeshua, you Natzri? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God!"
|
24 "What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are--the Holy One of God!"
|
|
25 Yeshua rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!"
|
25 "Be quiet!" said Jesus sternly. "Come out of him!"
|
|
26 The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
|
26 The evil spirit shook the man violently and came out of him with a shriek.
|
|
27 They were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him!"
|
27 The people were all so amazed that they asked each other, "What is this? A new teaching--and with authority! He even gives orders to evil spirits and they obey him."
|
|
28 The report of him went out immediately everywhere into all the region of the Galil and its surrounding area.
|
28 News about him spread quickly over the whole region of Galilee.
|
|
29 Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Shim`on and Andrai, with Ya`akov and Yochanan.
|
29 As soon as they left the synagogue, they went with James and John to the home of Simon and Andrew.
|
|
30 Now Shim`on's wife's mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
|
30 Simon's mother-in-law was in bed with a fever, and they told Jesus about her.
|
|
31 He came and took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she served them.
|
31 So he went to her, took her hand and helped her up. The fever left her and she began to wait on them.
|
|
32 At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick, and those who were possessed by demons.
|
32 That evening after sunset the people brought to Jesus all the sick and demon-possessed.
|
|
33 All the city was gathered together at the door.
|
33 The whole town gathered at the door,
|
|
34 He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He didn't allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.
|
34 and Jesus healed many who had various diseases. He also drove out many demons, but he would not let the demons speak because they knew who he was.
|
|
35 Early in the night, he rose up and went out, and departed into a desert place, and there prayed.
|
35 Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.
|
|
36 Shim`on and those who were with him followed after him;
|
36 Simon and his companions went to look for him,
|
|
37 and they found him, and told him, "Everyone is looking for you."
|
37 and when they found him, they exclaimed: "Everyone is looking for you!"
|
|
38 He said to them, "Let's go elsewhere into the next towns, that I may preach there also, for to this end I came forth."
|
38 Jesus replied, "Let us go somewhere else--to the nearby villages--so I can preach there also. That is why I have come."
|
|
39 He went into their synagogues throughout all Galil, preaching and casting out demons.
|
39 So he traveled throughout Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.
|
|
40 There came to him a leper, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, "If you want to, you can make me clean."
|
40 A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees, "If you are willing, you can make me clean."
|
|
41 Being moved with compassion, he stretched forth his hand, and touched him, and said to him, "I want to. Be made clean."
|
41 Filled with compassion, Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. "I am willing," he said. "Be clean!"
|
|
42 When he had said this, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.
|
42 Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cured.
|
|
43 He strictly charged him, and immediately sent him out,
|
43 Jesus sent him away at once with a strong warning:
|
|
44 and said to him, "See you say nothing to anybody, but go show yourself to the Kohen, and offer for your cleansing the things which Moshe commanded, for a testimony to them."
|
44 "See that you don't tell this to anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded for your cleansing, as a testimony to them."
|
|
45 But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Yeshua could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.
|
45 Instead he went out and began to talk freely, spreading the news. As a result, Jesus could no longer enter a town openly but stayed outside in lonely places. Yet the people still came to him from everywhere.
