for
the
forgiveness
of sins .

baptizing
in the wilderness, and
proclaiming
a baptism of reformation
--
to
remission
of sins ,
People
went
out
to him from
all of
Jerusalem
and
the countryside
of Judea .
Confessing
their
sins
, they were baptized by him in the Jordan
River.
and
there
were
going
forth
to him all the region
of Judea, and
they of
Jerusalem,
and
they
were all

sandals
I am not worthy to
stoop
down and
untie.
and he proclaimed,
saying,

than I --
after
me
, of whom

Galilee and was baptized by John in
the Jordan .

to
pass
in those days ,

came
up out
of
the water, He saw the heavens breaking
open
and the Spirit descending
on
Him
like
a dove .
and
immediately
coming
up from
the water, he saw the heavens dividing,
and the Spirit as
a dove coming
down
upon
him;
And a voice came from
heaven:
“You
are
My beloved
Son ;
in You
I am
well
pleased
. ”
and a voice came out
of
the
heavens,
`Thou
art
My Son --
the
Beloved,
in whom
I did
delight
. '

After the arrest
of John, Jesus went
into
Galilee and
proclaimed
the gospel
of God .
And
after the delivering
up
of John, Jesus came
to
Galilee ,
proclaiming
the good
news
of the
reign
of
God ,
“
The time is
fulfilled
, ”
He
said,
“
and the kingdom
of God is
near.
Repent
and believe in the gospel!”
and
saying
--
`Fulfilled
hath
been
the time, and the reign
of God hath
come

and believe in the good
news.'
As
Jesus
was
walking beside
the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and his brother Andrew.
They
were
casting a net
into the sea, for they were fishermen.
And,
walking by
the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon ,
and Andrew
his brother ,
casting a drag
into the sea, for they were fishers,
“Come,
follow
Me,”
Jesus said, “
and I will
make you fishers of men .”
and
Jesus said to
them
, `Come
ye
after
me,
and I shall
make you to
become
fishers of men ;'
And at
once
they
left their nets and
followed Him.
and immediately,
having
left their nets ,
they
followed him.
Going
on a little farther
, He saw James son
of Zebedee and his brother John.
They were in a
boat ,
mending
their
nets .
And
having
gone
on thence
a little, he saw James of Zebedee ,
and John
his brother ,
and
they were in the
boat refitting
the
nets ,
Immediately Jesus
called them, and they
left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men
and
followed
Him.
and
immediately he
called them, and ,
having
left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants,
they
went
away
after
him.
Then
Jesus
and His
companions
went
to Capernaum, and right
away
Jesus
entered
the
synagogue
on the Sabbath
and
began
to
teach.
And they
go
on
to Capernaum, and immediately,
on the sabbaths,
having
gone
into
the
synagogue,
he
was
teaching,
The
people
were astonished at His teaching, because
He taught
as one
who
had
authority, and not as the scribes.
and
they
were astonished at his teaching, for
he was
teaching
them
as having
authority, and not as the scribes.
Suddenly
a man with an unclean spirit cried out in
the
synagogue:
And
there
was
in
their
synagogue
a man with an unclean spirit ,
and
he
cried out ,
“
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 !”
saying,
`Away!
what --
to
us and
to
thee
, Jesus the
Nazarene
? thou
didst
come to destroy us ;
I have
known
thee
who thou
art
--
the Holy One of God .'
But
Jesus rebuked the
spirit.
“
Be silent!”
He
said.
“
Come out of him !”
And
Jesus rebuked him,
saying,
`
Be silenced,
and
come forth
out of him ,'
At
this,
the unclean spirit threw
the
man
into
convulsions
and came
out
with a loud
shriek.
and
the unclean spirit having
torn
him,
and having
cried
with a great
voice,
came
forth
out
of
him,
All
the
people
were amazed and
began
to ask
one
another
, “
What is this? A
new teaching with authority !
He
commands
even
the unclean spirits, and they obey Him! ”
and
they
were all
amazed ,
so
as
to reason
among
themselves
, saying,
`
What is this? what
new teaching `is'
this?
that
with authority also
the unclean spirits he
commandeth
, and they obey him! '
And the news
about
Jesus
spread
quickly
through
the whole
region of Galilee.
And the fame
of
him
went
forth
immediately
to
all
the region ,
round
about,
of Galilee.
As
soon
as
Jesus
and His
companions
had
left
the synagogue, they went with
James
and
John
to the home
of Simon and Andrew .
And immediately,
having
come
forth
out
of
the synagogue, they went to the house
of Simon and Andrew ,
with
James
and
John,
Simon’s
mother-in-law was sick
in
bed
with
a
fever
, and they promptly
told
Jesus
about her .
and
the
mother-in-law of
Simon
was lying
fevered
, and immediately
they tell
him
about her ,
So
He went
to
her, took
her by
the
hand, and helped
her
up.
The fever left her, and she began
to serve
them.
and
having
come
near,
he raised
her up
, having
laid
hold
of
her hand, and the fever left her immediately
, and she was
ministering
to them.
That
evening, after
sunset
, people
brought to
Jesus
all who were sick
and demon-possessed
,
And
evening having
come
, when
the
sun
did
set
, they
brought unto
him
all who were ill,
and who
were
demoniacs
,
and the whole town
gathered at
the door .
and the whole city
was
gathered together
near
the door ,
And He healed many who were ill with
various
diseases and drove
out
many demons .
But
He would
not allow
the demons to speak, because they knew who
He
was
.
and he healed many who were ill of
manifold
diseases ,
and many demons he cast
forth,
and
was
not suffering
the demons to speak, because they knew him
.
Early in
the
morning
, while
it was
still
dark
, Jesus
got
up
and slipped
out
to a solitary
place to
pray.
And
very
early, it being
yet
night
, having
risen,
he
went
forth,
and went
away
to a desert
place ,
and
was
there
praying;
Simon and his
companions
went to
look
for
Him,
and
Simon and those
with
him
went in
quest
of
him,
and when
they
found Him, they said
, “Everyone
is
looking
for
You!”
and having
found him, they say
to
him
, --
`All
do
seek
thee;'
But
Jesus
answered
, “Let
us
go on
to the neighboring
towns so
I can
preach there
as
well
, for that
is
why
I have
come
. ”
and
he
saith
to
them
, `We
may
go to the next
towns ,
that
there
also
I may
preach, for for
this
I came
forth
. '
So
He went
throughout
Galilee,
preaching in their synagogues and driving
out demons .
And
he was
preaching in their synagogues ,
in
all
Galilee,
and is
casting
out the
demons ,
Then
a leper came
to
Jesus
, begging
on his
knees:
“
If You
are
willing
, You
can
make
me clean
. ”
and
there
doth
come
to
him
a leper, calling
on him,
and
kneeling
to
him,
and
saying
to
him
--
`
If thou
mayest
will
, thou
art
able
to
cleanse
me. '
Moved with compassion, Jesus
reached
out
His
hand and
touched the
man.
“I
am
willing
, ”
He
said.
“
Be clean!”
And
Jesus
having
been
moved with compassion, having
stretched
forth
the
hand ,
touched him
, and
saith
to
him,
`I
will;
be thou
cleansed;'
And immediately the leprosy left
him, and the
man
was cleansed.
and he
having
spoken,
immediately the leprosy went
away
from
him, and he
was cleansed.
Jesus
promptly
sent
him away
with
a
stern
warning:
And
having
sternly
charged
him ,
immediately
he
put
him
forth,
“
See that
you
don’t
tell
anyone.
But go, show
yourself
to the priest and present
the
offering
Moses
prescribed
for your
cleansing, as
a testimony to them. ”
and
saith
to
him,
`
See thou
mayest
say
nothing
to
any
one,
but go away
, thyself
shew
to the priest ,
and bring
near
for thy
cleansing the
things
Moses
directed
, for
a testimony to them. '
But
the
man
went
out
and openly
began to proclaim and spread the news.
Consequently
, Jesus
could
no longer
enter a
town
in
plain
view
, but He stayed
out
in solitary
places .
Yet
people
came
to
Him from every quarter.
And he,
having
gone
forth,
began to proclaim much,
and to
spread abroad
the thing
, so
that
no more
he
was
able
openly
to
enter into
the
city
, but he was
without
in desert
places ,
and
they
were
coming
unto
him from every quarter.
