马太福音 4

耶稣受试探

1 后来，耶稣被圣灵带到旷野，去受魔鬼的试探。2 耶稣禁食了四十昼夜后，很饥饿。3 试探者前来对祂说：“如果你是上帝的儿子，可以叫这些石头变成食物。”4 耶稣回答说：“圣经上说，‘人活着不是单靠食物，乃是靠上帝口中的每一句话。’”5 魔鬼又带祂进圣城，让祂站在圣殿的最高处，6 说：“如果你是上帝的儿子，就跳下去吧，因为圣经上说，‘上帝会差遣祂的天使用手托住你，不让你的脚碰在石头上。’”7 耶稣回答说：“圣经上也说，‘不可试探主——你的上帝。’”8 魔鬼再带耶稣到一座极高的山上，把世上万国及其荣华富贵展示给祂看，9 说：“如果你俯伏敬拜我，我就把这一切都给你。”10 耶稣说：“撒旦，走开！圣经上说，‘要敬拜主——你的上帝，单单事奉祂。’”11 于是魔鬼离开了耶稣，这时有天使前来伺候祂。

开始传道

12 耶稣听见约翰被捕入狱，就回到加利利。13 后来，祂离开拿撒勒去迦百农住。迦百农靠近湖边，在西布伦和拿弗他利地区。14 这就应验了以赛亚先知的话：15 “西布伦、拿弗他利、沿海一带及约旦河东、外族人居住的加利利啊！16 你们住在黑暗中的人看见了大光，活在死亡阴影下的人被光照亮了！”17 从那时起，耶稣开始传道：“悔改吧！天国临近了！”

呼召门徒

18 耶稣沿着加利利湖边行走的时候，看见被称为彼得的西门和安得烈两兄弟正在撒网打鱼，他们是渔夫。19 耶稣对他们说：“来跟从我！我要使你们成为得人的渔夫。”20 他们立刻撇下渔网，跟从了耶稣。21 耶稣再往前走，又看见雅各和约翰两兄弟正和父亲西庇太一起在船上补渔网。耶稣呼召他们，22 他们马上离开渔船，辞别父亲，跟从了耶稣。

教导和医治

23 耶稣走遍加利利，在各个会堂里教导人，宣讲天国的福音，医治人们各样的疾病。24 祂的名声传遍了整个叙利亚。人们把一切患病的，就是患各种疾病的、疼痛的、癫痫的、瘫痪的，以及被鬼附身的都带到祂面前，祂都医治了他们。25 因此，有大群的人跟从了祂，他们来自加利利、低加坡里、耶路撒冷、犹太和约旦河东。

Matthew 4

The Temptation of Jesus

1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wildernesst to be tempted by the devil.2 After he fasted forty days and forty nights he was famished.t3 The tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become bread.”t4 But he answered,t “It is written, ‘Mantdoes not livetby bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”s5 Then the devil took him to the holy city,s had him standt on the highest points of the temple,6 and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down. For it is written, ‘He will command his angels concerning you’s and ‘with their hands they will lift you up, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’”s7 Jesus said to him, “Once again it is written: ‘You are not to put the Lord your God to the test.’”s8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their grandeur.t9 And he said to him, “I will give you all these things if you throw yourself to the ground and worshipt me.”10 Then Jesus said to him, “Go away,s Satan! For it is written: ‘You are to worship the Lord your God and serve only him.’”s

11 Then the devil left him, and angelst came and began ministering to his needs.

Preaching in Galilee

12 Now when Jesust heard that John had been imprisoned,t he went into Galilee.13 While in Galilee, he moved from Nazareths to make his home in Capernaumtss by the sea,ts in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,

14 so that what was spoken by Isaiah the prophet would be fulfilled:t

15 “Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali,
the way by the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles –

16 the people who sit in darkness have seen a great light,
and on those who sit in the region and shadow of death a light has dawned.”s

17 From that time Jesus began to preach this message:t “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near.”

The Call of the Disciples

18 Ast he was walking by the Sea of Galilee he saw two brothers, Simon (called Peter) and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea (for they were fishermen).t19 He said to them, “Follow me, and I will turn you into fishers of people.”ts20 Theyt left their nets immediately and followed him.s21 Going on from there he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, in a boatt with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. Thent he called them.

22 Theyt immediately left the boat and their father and followed him.

Jesus’ Healing Ministry

23 Jesust went throughout all of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues,s preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of disease and sickness among the people.24 So a report about him spread throughout Syria. Peoplet brought to him all who suffered with various illnesses and afflictions, those who had seizures,t paralytics, and those possessed by demons,t and he healed them.

25 And large crowds followed him from Galilee, the Decapolis,ts Jerusalem,s Judea, and beyond the Jordan River.t
