The beginning <G0746> of the gospel <G2098> of Jesus <G2424> Christ <G5547>, the Son <G5207> of God <G2316>;
2
As <G5613> it is written <G1125> <G5769> in <G1722> the prophets <G4396>, Behold <G2400> <G5628>, I <G1473> send <G0649> <G5719> my <G3450> messenger <G0032> before <G4253> thy <G4675> face <G4383>, which <G3739> shall prepare <G2680> <G5692> thy <G4675> way <G3598> before <G1715> thee <G4675>.
3
The voice <G5456> of one crying <G0994> <G5723> in <G1722> the wilderness <G2048>, Prepare ye <G2090> <G5657> the way <G3598> of the Lord <G2962>, make <G4160> <G5720> his <G0846> paths <G5147> straight <G2117>.
4
John <G2491> did <G1096> <G5633> baptize <G0907> <G5723> in <G1722> the wilderness <G2048>, and <G2532> preach <G2784> <G5723> the baptism <G0908> of repentance <G3341> for <G1519> the remission <G0859> of sins <G0266>.
5
And <G2532> there went out <G1607> <G5711> unto <G4314> him <G0846> all <G3956> the land <G5561> of Judaea <G2453> <G2449>, and <G2532> they of Jerusalem <G2415>, and <G2532> were <G0907> <G0000> all <G3956> baptized <G0907> <G5712> of <G5259> him <G0846> in <G1722> the river <G4215> of Jordan <G2446>, confessing <G1843> <G5734> their <G0848> sins <G0266>.
6
And <G1161> John <G2491> was <G2258> <G5713> clothed <G1746> <G5765> with camel's <G2574> hair <G2359>, and <G2532> with a girdle <G2223> of a skin <G1193> about <G4012> his <G0848> loins <G3751>; and <G2532> he did eat <G2068> <G5723> locusts <G0200> and <G2532> wild <G0066> honey <G3192>;
7
And <G2532> preached <G2784> <G5707>, saying <G3004> <G5723>, There cometh <G2064> <G5736> one mightier than <G2478> I <G3450> after <G3694> me <G3450>, the latchet <G2438> of whose <G3739> shoes <G0846> <G5266> I am <G1510> <G5748> not <G3756> worthy <G2425> to stoop down <G2955> <G5660> and unloose <G3089> <G5658>.
8
I <G1473> indeed <G3303> have baptized <G0907> <G5656> you <G5209> with <G1722> water <G5204>: but <G1161> he shall baptize <G0907> <G5692> you <G5209> with <G1722> the Holy <G0040> Ghost <G4151>.
9
And <G2532> it came to pass <G1096> <G5633> in <G1722> those <G1565> days <G2250>, that Jesus <G2424> came <G2064> <G5627> from <G0575> Nazareth <G3478> of Galilee <G1056>, and <G2532> was baptized <G0907> <G5681> of <G5259> John <G2491> in <G1519> Jordan <G2446>.
10
And <G2532> straightway <G2112> coming up <G0305> <G5723> out of <G0575> the water <G5204>, he saw <G1492> <G5627> the heavens <G3772> opened <G4977> <G5746>, and <G2532> the Spirit <G4151> like <G5616> a dove <G4058> descending <G2597> <G5723> upon <G1909> him <G0846>:
11
And <G2532> there came <G1096> <G5633> a voice <G5456> from <G1537> heaven <G3772>, [saying], Thou <G4771> art <G1488> <G5748> my <G3450> beloved <G0027> Son <G5207>, in <G1722> whom <G3739> I am well pleased <G2106> <G5656>.
12
And <G2532> immediately <G2117> the Spirit <G4151> driveth <G1544> <G5719> him <G0846> into <G1519> the wilderness <G2048>.
13
And <G2532> he was <G2258> <G5713> there <G1563> in <G1722> the wilderness <G2048> forty <G5062> days <G2250>, tempted <G3985> <G5746> of <G5259> Satan <G4567>; and <G2532> was <G2258> <G5713> with <G3326> the wild beasts <G2342>; and <G2532> the angels <G0032> ministered <G1247> <G5707> unto him <G0846>.
14
Now <G1161> after <G3326> that John <G2491> was put in prison <G3860> <G5683>, Jesus <G2424> came <G2064> <G5627> into <G1519> Galilee <G1056>, preaching <G2784> <G5723> the gospel <G2098> of the kingdom <G0932> of God <G2316>,
15
And <G2532> saying <G3004> <G5723>, <G3754> The time <G2540> is fulfilled <G4137> <G5769>, and <G2532> the kingdom <G0932> of God <G2316> is at hand <G1448> <G5758>: repent ye <G3340> <G5720>, and <G2532> believe <G4100> <G5720> <G1722> the gospel <G2098>.
16
Now <G1161> as he walked <G4043> <G5723> by <G3844> the sea <G2281> of Galilee <G1056>, he saw <G1492> <G5627> Simon <G4613> and <G2532> Andrew <G0406> his <G0846> brother <G0080> casting <G0906> <G5723> a net <G0293> into <G1722> the sea <G2281>: for <G1063> they were <G2258> <G5713> fishers <G0231>.
17
And <G2532> Jesus <G2424> said <G2036> <G5627> unto them <G0846>, Come ye <G1205> <G5773> after <G3694> me <G3450>, and <G2532> I will make <G4160> <G5692> you <G5209> to become <G1096> <G5635> fishers <G0231> of men <G0444>.
18
And <G2532> straightway <G2112> they forsook <G0863> <G5631> their <G0848> nets <G1350>, and followed <G0190> <G5656> him <G0846>.
19
And <G2532> when he had gone <G4260> <G0000> a little <G3641> further <G4260> <G5631> thence <G1564>, he saw <G1492> <G5627> James <G2385> the [son] <G3588> of Zebedee <G2199>, and <G2532> John <G2491> his <G0846> brother <G0080>, who <G0846> also <G2532> were in <G1722> the ship <G4143> mending <G2675> <G5723> their nets <G1350>.
20
And <G2532> straightway <G2112> he called <G2564> <G5656> them <G0846>: and <G2532> they left <G0863> <G5631> their <G0848> father <G3962> Zebedee <G2199> in <G1722> the ship <G4143> with <G3326> the hired servants <G3411>, and went <G0565> <G5627> after <G3694> him <G0846>.
21
And <G2532> they went <G1531> <G5736> into <G1519> Capernaum <G2584>; and <G2532> straightway <G2112> on the sabbath day <G4521> he entered <G1525> <G5631> into <G1519> the synagogue <G4864>, and taught <G1321> <G5707>.
22
And <G2532> they were astonished <G1605> <G5712> at <G1909> his <G0846> doctrine <G1322>: for <G1063> he taught <G1321> <G5723> <G2258> <G5713> them <G0846> as <G5613> one that had <G2192> <G5723> authority <G1849>, and <G2532> not <G3756> as <G5613> the scribes <G1122>.
23
And <G2532> there was <G2258> <G5713> in <G1722> their <G0846> synagogue <G4864> a man <G0444> with <G1722> an unclean <G0169> spirit <G4151>; and <G2532> he cried out <G0349> <G5656>,
24
Saying <G3004> <G5723>, Let [us] alone <G1436>; what <G5101> have we <G2254> to do <G2532> with thee <G4671>, thou Jesus <G2424> of Nazareth <G3479>? art thou come <G2064> <G5627> to destroy <G0622> <G5658> us <G2248>? I know <G1492> <G5758> thee <G4571> who <G5101> thou art <G1488> <G5748>, the Holy One <G0040> of God <G2316>.
25
And <G2532> Jesus <G2424> rebuked <G2008> <G5656> him <G0846>, saying <G3004> <G5723>, Hold thy peace <G5392> <G5682>, and <G2532> come <G1831> <G5628> out of <G1537> him <G0846>.
26
And <G2532> when the unclean <G0169> spirit <G4151> had torn <G4682> <G5660> him <G0846>, and <G2532> cried <G2896> <G5660> with a loud <G3173> voice <G5456>, he came <G1831> <G5627> out of <G1537> him <G0846>.
27
And <G2532> they were <G2284> <G0000> all <G3956> amazed <G2284> <G5681>, insomuch that <G5620> they questioned <G4802> <G5721> among <G4314> themselves <G0848>, saying <G3004> <G5723>, What thing <G5101> is <G2076> <G5748> this <G3778>? what <G5101> new <G2537> doctrine <G1322> [is] this <G5124>? for <G3754> with <G2596> authority <G1849> commandeth <G2004> <G5719> he even <G2532> the unclean <G0169> spirits <G4151>, and <G2532> they do obey <G5219> <G5719> him <G0846>.
28
And <G1161> immediately <G2117> his <G0846> fame <G0189> spread abroad <G1831> <G5627> throughout <G1519> all <G3650> the region round about <G4066> Galilee <G1056>.
29
And <G2532> forthwith <G2112>, when they were come <G1831> <G5631> out of <G1537> the synagogue <G4864>, they entered <G2064> <G5627> into <G1519> the house <G3614> of Simon <G4613> and <G2532> Andrew <G0406>, with <G3326> James <G2385> and <G2532> John <G2491>.
30
But <G1161> Simon's <G4613> wife's mother <G3994> lay <G2621> <G5711> sick of a fever <G4445> <G5723>, and <G2532> anon <G2112> they tell <G3004> <G5719> him <G0846> of <G4012> her <G0846>.
31
And <G2532> he came <G4334> <G5631> and took <G2902> <G5660> her <G0846> by the hand <G5495>, and lifted <G1453> <G0000> her <G0846> up <G1453> <G5656>; and <G2532> immediately <G2112> the fever <G4446> left <G0863> <G5656> her <G0846>, and <G2532> she ministered <G1247> <G5707> unto them <G0846>.
32
And <G1161> at <G1096> <G5637> even <G3798>, when <G3753> the sun <G2246> did set <G1416> <G5627>, they brought <G5342> <G5707> unto <G4314> him <G0846> all <G3956> that were <G2192> <G5723> diseased <G2560>, and <G2532> them that were possessed with devils <G1139> <G5740>.
33
And <G2532> all <G3650> the city <G4172> was <G2258> <G5713> gathered together <G1996> <G5772> at <G4314> the door <G2374>.
34
And <G2532> he healed <G2323> <G5656> many <G4183> that were <G2192> <G5723> sick <G2560> of divers <G4164> diseases <G3554>, and <G2532> cast out <G1544> <G5627> many <G4183> devils <G1140>; and <G2532> suffered <G0863> <G5707> not <G3756> the devils <G1140> to speak <G2980> <G5721>, because <G3754> they knew <G1492> <G5715> him <G0846>.
35
And <G2532> in the morning <G4404>, rising up <G0450> <G5631> a great while <G3029> before day <G1773>, he went out <G1831> <G5627>, and <G2532> departed <G0565> <G5627> into <G1519> a solitary <G2048> place <G5117>, and there <G2546> prayed <G4336> <G5711>.
36
And <G2532> Simon <G4613> and <G2532> they that were with <G3326> him <G0846> followed after <G2614> <G5656> him <G0846>.
37
And <G2532> when they had found <G2147> <G5631> him <G0846>, they said <G3004> <G5719> unto him <G0846>, <G3754> All <G3956> [men] seek <G2212> <G5719> for thee <G4571>.
38
And <G2532> he said <G3004> <G5719> unto them <G0846>, Let us go <G0071> <G5725> into <G1519> the next <G2192> <G5746> towns <G2969>, that <G2443> I may preach <G2784> <G5661> there also <G2546>: for <G1063> therefore <G1519> <G5124> came I forth <G1831> <G5758>.
39
And <G2532> he preached <G2784> <G5723> <G2258> <G5713> in <G1722> their <G0846> synagogues <G4864> throughout <G1519> all <G3650> Galilee <G1056>, and <G2532> cast out <G1544> <G5723> devils <G1140>.
40
And <G2532> there came <G2064> <G5736> a leper <G3015> to <G4314> him <G0846>, beseeching <G3870> <G5723> him <G0846>, and <G2532> kneeling down <G1120> <G5723> to him <G0846>, and <G2532> saying <G3004> <G5723> unto him <G0846>, <G3754> If <G1437> thou wilt <G2309> <G5725>, thou canst <G1410> <G5736> make <G2511> <G0000> me <G3165> clean <G2511> <G5658>.
41
And <G1161> Jesus <G2424>, moved with compassion <G4697> <G5679>, put forth <G1614> <G5660> [his] hand <G5495>, and touched <G0680> <G5662> him <G0846>, and <G2532> saith <G3004> <G5719> unto him <G0846>, I will <G2309> <G5719>; be thou clean <G2511> <G5682>.
42
And <G2532> as soon as he <G0846> had spoken <G2036> <G5631>, immediately <G2112> the leprosy <G3014> departed <G0565> <G5627> from <G0575> him <G0846>, and <G2532> he was cleansed <G2511> <G5681>.
43
And <G2532> he straitly charged <G1690> <G5666> him <G0846>, and forthwith <G2112> sent <G1544> <G0000> him <G0846> away <G1544> <G5627>;
44
And <G2532> saith <G3004> <G5719> unto him <G0846>, See <G3708> <G5720> thou say <G2036> <G5632> nothing <G3367> to any man <G3367>: but <G0235> go thy way <G5217> <G5720>, shew <G1166> <G5657> thyself <G4572> to the priest <G2409>, and <G2532> offer <G4374> <G5628> for <G4012> thy <G4675> cleansing <G2512> those things which Moses <G3475> commanded <G4367> <G5656>, for <G1519> a testimony <G3142> unto them <G0846>.
45
But <G1161> he went out <G1831> <G5631>, and began <G0756> <G5662> to publish <G2784> <G5721> [it] much <G4183>, and <G2532> to blaze abroad <G1310> <G5721> the matter <G3056>, insomuch that <G5620> Jesus <G0846> could <G1410> <G5738> no more <G3371> openly <G5320> enter <G1525> <G5629> into <G1519> the city <G4172>, but <G0235> was <G2258> <G5713> without <G1854> in <G1722> desert <G2048> places <G5117>: and <G2532> they came <G2064> <G5711> to <G4314> him <G0846> from every quarter <G3836>.
