4:12 Yeshua begins his ministry

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

12 When Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) heard that Yohan (John; Grk. Yoannes) had been arrested,[ref] he withdrew up to Galil. 13 Then he moved from Nazaret (Nazareth) across to Kafarnaoum (Capernaum) beside the lake,[ref] in the regions that had been given to the tribes of Zevulun and Naftali (Naphtali), 14 so that what had been written by the prophet Yeshayah (Isaiah) would come true,

15 ‘Land of Zevulun and land of Naftali,

the way of the sea beyond the Yarden (Jordan) river;

Galil of the non-Jews.

16 The 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.’[ref]

17 From then onwards, Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) started preaching and telling people to turn from their sins because the heavenly kingdom is close.[ref]

13 And having_left the Nazaret, having_come he_dwelt at Kafarnaʼoum, which is by_the_seaside in the_regions of_Zaboulōn/(Zəⱱūlūn) and Nefthaleim/(Naftālī),

14 in_order_that the message may_be_fulfilled having_been_spoken by Aʸsaias/(Yəshaˊ^yāh) the prophet saying,

15 Land of_Zaboulōn and land of_Nefthaleim, way of_the_sea, beyond the Yordanaʸs/(Yardēn), Galilaia of_the pagans.

16 The 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.

17 From then the Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) began to_be_proclaiming and to_be_saying:
Be_repenting, because/for the kingdom of_the heavens has_neared.
