1:1 |
The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ the Son of God;
|
1:2 |
As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee;
|
1:3 |
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
|
1:4 |
John was baptizing in the wilderness, and preaching the baptism of repentance, for the remission of sins.
|
1:5 |
And there went out to him all the land of Judea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
|
1:6 |
And John was clothed with camels hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he ate locusts and wild honey;
|
1:7 |
And preached, saying, There cometh after me one mightier than I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
|
1:8 |
I indeed have baptized you with water: but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.
|
1:9 |
And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth to Galilee, and was baptized by John in Jordan.
|
1:10 |
And immediately coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him.
|
1:11 |
And there came a voice from heaven, [saying], Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
|
1:12 |
And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness.
|
1:13 |
And he was there in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan: and was with the wild beasts, and the angels ministered to him.
|
1:14 |
Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
|
1:15 |
And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
|
1:16 |
Now as he was walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
|
1:17 |
And Jesus said to them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
|
1:18 |
And immediately they forsook their nets, and followed him.
|
1:19 |
And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw James the [son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.
|
1:20 |
And immediately he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
|
1:21 |
And they went into Capernaum; and immediately on the sabbath he entered into the synagogue and taught.
|
1:22 |
And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
|
1:23 |
And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
|
1:24 |
Saying, Let [us] alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
|
1:25 |
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
|
1:26 |
And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.
|
1:27 |
And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine [is] this? for with authority he commandeth even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.
|
1:28 |
And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region around Galilee.
|
1:29 |
And forthwith, when they had come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
|
1:30 |
But the mother of Simon's wife lay sick with a fever; and forthwith they tell him of her.
|
1:31 |
And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered to them.
|
1:32 |
And at evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with demons.
|
1:33 |
And all the city was gathered at the door.
|
1:34 |
And he healed many that were sick with divers diseases, and cast out many demons; and suffered not the demons to speak, because they knew him.
|
1:35 |
And in the morning, rising a great while before day, he went out and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
|
1:36 |
And Simon, and they that were with him, followed after him.
|
1:37 |
And when they had found him, they said to him, All [men] seek for thee.
|
1:38 |
And he said to them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for, for this purpose have I come.
|
1:39 |
And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out demons.
|
1:40 |
And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying to him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
|
1:41 |
And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth [his] hand, and touched him, and saith to him, I will; be thou clean.
|
1:42 |
And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
|
1:43 |
And he strictly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;
|
1:44 |
And saith to him, See thou say nothing to any man; but go, show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.
|
1:45 |
But he went out, and began to publish [it] much, and to blaze abroad the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
