CHAP. IV.
1 Christ fasteth, and is tempted. 11 The Angels minister vnto him. 13 Hee dwelleth in Capernaum, 17 beginneth to preach, 18 calleth Peter, and Andrew, 21 Iames, and Iohn: 23 and healeth all the diseased.
1 Then was Iesus led vp of the Spirit into the wildernesse, to bee tempted of the deuill.1
2 And when hee had fasted forty dayes and forty nights, hee was afterward an hungred.
4 But he answered, and said, It is written, Man shall not liue by bread alone, but by euery word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.4
5 Then the deuill taketh him vp into the holy Citie, and setteth him on a pinacle of the Temple,
6 And saith vnto him, If thou bee the Sonne of God, cast thy selfe downe: For it is written, He shall giue his Angels charge concerning thee, & in their handes they shall beare thee vp, lest at any time thou dash thy foote against a stone.6
7 Iesus said vnto him, It is written againe, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.7
9 And saith vnto him, All these things will I giue thee, if thou wilt fall downe and worship me.
10 Then saith Iesus vnto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him onely shalt thou serue.10
11 Then the deuill leaueth him, and behold, Angels came and ministred vnto him.
12 ¶ Now when Iesus had heard that Iohn was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee.12
14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the Prophet, saying,
15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthali, by the way of the Sea beyond Iordane, Galilee of the Gentiles:15
17 ¶ From that time Iesus began to preach, and to say, Repent, for the kingdome of heauen is at hand.17
18 ¶ And Iesus walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon, called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the Sea (for they were fishers)18
19 And he saith vnto them, Follow mee: and I will make you fishers of men.
20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.
22 And they immediatly left the shippe and their father, and followed him.
