4:1 Yeshua is tempted by the devil

(Mark 1:12-13, Luke 4:1-13)

4[ref]Then Yeshua was taken by the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2As he’d been fasting for forty days (and nights), he was getting hungry, 3and the tempter approached him and asked, “If you’re God’s son, command some of these stones to turn into buns.”

4[ref]But Yeshua answered, “It’s written in the scriptures that it’s not just food that a person needs to live, but also all of God’s message.

5Then the devil took him to Jerusalem, and stood him on the highest point of the temple 6[ref]and told him, “Throw yourself down if you’re God’s son, because it’s written in the scriptures that God will command his messengers to look after you and to carry you in their arms so that you won’t bash your foot on a rock.”

7[ref]But it’s also written,Yeshua answered, “that you shouldn’t test God your master.

8Then the devil took him to a very high mountains and showed him all the countries of the world with all their splendour, 9then told him, “I’ll give all of these to you if you get down and prostrate yourself to me.”

10[ref]Go away, Satan,Yeshua replied, “because it’s written in the scriptures that you should worship God your master and should only serve him.

11Then the devil left him and God’s messengers came and looked after him.

4Then the Yaʸsous was_brought_up into the wilderness by the spirit to_be_tempted by the devil.
2And having_fasted forty days and forty nights, later he_hungered.
3And the one tempting having_approached, said to_him:
If you_are the_son of_ the _god, speak that the these stones may_become loaves.
4But he answering said:
It_has_been_written:
The person not only by bread will_be_living, but by every message going_out through the_mouth of_god.
5Then the devil is_taking him to the holy city, and stood him on the pinnacle of_the temple, 6and he_is_saying to_him:
If you_are the_son of_ the _god, throw yourself down, because/for it_has_been_written, that Will_be_commanding to_the messengers of_him concerning you, and:
They_will_be_carrying you in ^their_hands, lest you_may_strike the foot of_you against a_stone.
7The Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) was_saying to_him:
Again it_has_been_written:
You will_ not _be_Testing the_master the god of_you.
8Again the devil is_taking him to a_ exceedingly high _mountain, and is_showing to_him all the kingdoms of_the world and the glory of_them, 9and he_said to_him:
I_will_be_giving all these things to_you if having_fallen, you_may_prostrate before_me.
10Then the Yaʸsous is_saying to_him:
Be_going_away Satan/(Sāţān), because/for it_has_been_written:
You_will_be_prostrating the_master the god of_you, and only unto_him you_will_be_serving.
11Then the devil is_leaving him, and see, messengers approached and were_serving unto_him.

4:12 Yeshua begins his ministry

(Mark 1:14-15, Luke 4:14-15)

12[ref]When Yeshua heard that Yohan had been arrested, he withdrew up to Galilee. 13[ref]He moved from Nazareth across to Capernaum beside the lake in the region that had been given to the tribes of Zebulun and Naftali 14so that what had been written by the prophet Isayah would come true,

15[ref]‘Land of Zebulun and land of Naftali,

the way of the sea beyond the Yordan;

Galilee of the non-Jews.

16The people sitting in darkness

saw a powerful light,

and those sitting in a land under the shadow of death

had a light rise over them.’

17[ref]From then onwards, Yeshua started preaching and telling people to turn from their sins because the kingdom of heavens is close.

12And having_heard that Yōannaʸs was_given_over, he_withdrew into the Galilaia/(Gālīl).
13And having_left the Nazaret, having_come he_dwelt at Kafarnaʼoum, which is by_the_seaside in the_regions of_Zaboulōn/(Zəⱱūlūn) and Nefthaleim/(Naftālī), 14in_order_that the message may_be_fulfilled having_been_spoken by Aʸsaias/(Yəshaˊyāh) the prophet saying, 15Land of_Zaboulōn and land of_Nefthaleim, way of_the_sea, beyond the Yordanaʸs/(Yardēn), Galilaia of_the pagans.
16The people which sitting in darkness saw a_ great _light, and to_the ones sitting in a_land and shadow of_death, a_light rose on_them.
17From then the Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) began to_be_proclaiming and to_be_saying:
Be_repenting, because/for the kingdom of_the heavens has_neared.

4:18 Yeshua calls his first four followers

(Mark 1:16-20, Luke 5:1-11)

18As he walked beside Lake Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon (later nicknamed Peter) and Andrew, throwing their net into the sea because they were fishermen. 19Come and follow me,” Yeshua told them, “and I’ll make you fishers of people. 20So they left their nets immediately and followed after him.

21Going on a bit further, he saw two other brothers, Yacob and Yohan, in the boat getting their nets ready along with their father Zebedee, and Yeshua also called the two of them. 22So they too immediately left the boat and their father and followed after him.

18And walking beside the sea of_ the _Galilaia he_saw two, brothers, Simōn which being_called Petros and Andreas the brother of_him, throwing a_throwing_net into the sea, because/for they_were fishermen.
19And he_is_saying to_them:
Come after me, and I_will_be_making you_all fishermen of_people.
20And which immediately having_left the nets, they_followed after_him.
21And having_advanced from_there, he_saw two other brothers, Yakōbos/(Yaˊₐqoⱱ) the son of_ the _Zebedaios and Yōannaʸs the brother of_him, in the boat with Zebedaios the father of_them, preparing the nets of_them, and he_called them.
22And which immediately having_left the boat and the father of_them, they_followed after_him.

4:23 Yeshua’s healing is very popular

(Luke 6:17-19)

23[ref]Then Yeshua went around all of Galilee, teaching in their Jewish meeting halls and proclaiming the good message about the kingdom, and healing all the diseases and sicknesses of the people 24and the news about this went all the way up to Syria. 25Large crowds from Galilee and Decapolis and Yerushalem, and from all of Yudea and even beyond the Yordan River, followed after Yeshua.


23And the Yaʸsous he_was_going_around in all the Galilaia/(Gālīl), teaching in the synagogues of_them, and proclaiming the good_message of_the kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.
24And the report of_him went_away into all the Suria/(ʼArām).
And they_brought to_him all the ones sickly, having with_various diseases, and being_gripped_with with_torments, being_demon_possessed, and being_epileptic, and paralytic, and he_healed them.
25And great crowds followed after_him from the Galilaia, and the_Dekapolis, and Hierousalaʸm/(Yərūshālayim), and Youdaia, and beyond the Yordanaʸs/(Yardēn).
