Luke 4

¹And Jesus, filled with the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan. And he was urged by the Spirit into the wilderness

²for forty days, and he was tested by the devil. And he ate nothing in those days. And when they were completed, he was hungry.

³Then the devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, speak to this stone, so that it may be made into bread.”

⁴And Jesus answered him, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.’ ”

⁵And the devil led him onto a high mountain, and he showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time,

⁶and he said to him: “To you, I will give all this power, and its glory. For they have been handed over to me, and I give them to whomever I wish.

⁷Therefore, if you will worship before me, all will be yours.”

⁸And in response, Jesus said to him: “It is written: ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him alone.’ ”

⁹And he brought him to Jerusalem, and he set him on the parapet of the temple, and he said to him: “If you are the Son of God, cast yourself down from here.

¹⁰For it is written that he has given his Angels charge over you, so that they may guard you,

¹¹and so that they may take you into their hands, lest perhaps you may hurt your foot against a stone.”

¹²And in response, Jesus said to him, “It is said: ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’ ”

¹³And when all the temptation was completed, the devil withdrew from him, until a time.

¹⁴And Jesus returned, in the power of the Spirit, into Galilee. And his fame spread throughout the entire region.

¹⁵And he taught in their synagogues, and he was magnified by everyone.

¹⁶And he went to Nazareth, where he had been raised. And he entered into the synagogue, according to his custom, on the Sabbath day. And he rose up to read.

¹⁷And the book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. And as he unrolled the book, he found the place where it was written:

¹⁸“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me; because of this, he has anointed me. He has sent me to evangelize the poor, to heal the contrite of heart,

¹⁹to preach forgiveness to captives and sight to the blind, to release the broken into forgiveness, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord and the day of retribution.”

²⁰And when he had rolled up the book, he returned it to the minister, and he sat down. And the eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fixed on him.

²¹Then he began to say to them, “On this day, this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.”

²²And everyone gave testimony to him. And they wondered at the words of grace that proceeded from his mouth. And they said, “Is this not the son of Joseph?”

²³And he said to them: “Certainly, you will recite to me this saying, ‘Physician, heal yourself.’ The many great things that we have heard were done in Capernaum, do here also in your own country.”

²⁴Then he said: “Amen I say to you, that no prophet is accepted in his own country.

²⁵In truth, I say to you, there were many widows in the days of Elijah in Israel, when the heavens were closed for three years and six months, when a great famine had occurred throughout the entire land.

²⁶And to none of these was Elijah sent, except to Zarephath of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow.

²⁷And there were many lepers in Israel under the prophet Elisha. And none of these was cleansed, except Naaman the Syrian.”

²⁸And all those in the synagogue, upon hearing these things, were filled with anger.

²⁹And they rose up and drove him beyond the city. And they brought him all the way to the edge of the mount, upon which their city had been built, so that they might throw him down violently.

³⁰But passing through their midst, he went away.

³¹And he descended to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. And there he taught them on the Sabbaths.

³²And they were astonished at his doctrine, for his word was spoken with authority.

³³And in the synagogue, there was a man who had an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice,

³⁴saying: “Let us alone. What are we to you, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God.”

³⁵And Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent and depart from him.” And when the demon had thrown him into their midst, he departed from him, and he no longer harmed him.

³⁶And fear fell over them all. And they discussed this among themselves, saying: “What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they depart.”

³⁷And his fame spread to every place in the region.

³⁸Then Jesus, rising up from the synagogue, entered into the house of Simon. Now Simon’s mother-in-law was in the grip of a severe fever. And they petitioned him on her behalf.

³⁹And standing over her, he commanded the fever, and it left her. And promptly rising up, she ministered to them.

⁴⁰Then, when the sun had set, all those who had anyone afflicted with various diseases brought them to him. Then, laying his hands on each one of them, he cured them.

⁴¹Now demons departed from many of them, crying out and saying, “You are the son of God.” And rebuking them, he would not permit them to speak. For they knew him to be the Christ.

⁴²Then, when it was daytime, going out, he went to a deserted place. And the crowds sought him, and they went all the way to him. And they detained him, so that he would not depart from them.

⁴³And he said to them, “I must also preach the kingdom of God to other cities, because it was for this reason that I was sent.”

⁴⁴And he was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.

Luke 4

¹And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost, returned from the Jordan and was led the by the spirit into the desert,

²For the space of forty days, and was tempted by the devil. And he ate nothing in those days. And when they were ended, he was hungry.

³And the devil said to him: If thou be the Son of God, say to this stone that it be made bread.

⁴And Jesus answered him: is written that Man liveth not by bread alone, but by every word of God.

⁵And the devil led him into a high mountain and shewed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

⁶And he said to him: To thee will I give all this power and the glory of them. For to me they are delivered: and to whom I will, I give them.

⁷If thou therefore wilt adore before me, all shall be thine.

⁸And Jesus answering said to him. It is written: Thou shalt adore the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

⁹And he brought him to Jerusalem and set him on a pinnacle of the temple and said to him: If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself from hence.

¹⁰For it is written that He hath given his angels charge over thee that they keep thee.

¹¹And that in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest perhaps thou dash thy foot against a stone.

¹²And Jesus answering, said to him: It is said: Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

¹³And all the temptation being ended, the devil departed from him for a time.

¹⁴And Jesus returned in the power of the spirit, into Galilee: and the fame of him went out through the whole country.

¹⁵And he taught in their synagogues and was magnified by all.

¹⁶And he came to Nazareth, where he was brought up: and he went into the synagogue, according to his custom, on the sabbath day: and he rose up to read.

¹⁷And the book of Isaias the prophet was delivered unto him. And as he unfolded the book, he found the place where it was written:

¹⁸The spirit of the Lord is upon me. Wherefore he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, he hath sent me to heal the contrite of heart,

¹⁹To preach deliverance to the captives and sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord and the day of reward.

²⁰And when he had folded the book, he restored it to the minister and sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him.

²¹And he began to say to them: This day is fulfilled this scripture in your ears.

²²And all gave testimony to him. And they wondered at the words of grace that proceeded from his mouth. And they said: Is not this the son of Joseph?

²³And he said to them: Doubtless you will say to me this similitude: Physician, heal thyself. As great things as we have heard done in Capharnaum, do also here in thy own country.

²⁴And he said: Amen I say to you that no prophet is accepted in his own country.

²⁵In truth I say to You, there were many widows in the days of Elias in Israel, when heaven was shut up three years and six months, when there was a great famine throughout all the earth.

²⁶And to none of them was Elias sent, but to Sarepta of Sidon, to a widow woman.

²⁷And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet: and none of them was cleansed but Naaman the Syrian.

²⁸And all they in the synagogue, hearing these things, were filled with anger.

²⁹And they rose up and thrust him out of the city: and they brought him to the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong.

³⁰But he passing through the midst of them, went his way.

³¹And he went down into Capharnaum, a city of Galilee: and there he taught them on the sabbath days.

³²And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his speech was with power.

³³And in the synagogue there was a man who had an unclean devil: and he cried out with a loud voice,

³⁴Saying: Let us alone. What have we to do with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the holy one of God.

³⁵And Jesus rebuked him, saying: Hold thy peace and go out of him. And when the devil had thrown him into the midst, he went out of him and hurt him not at all.

³⁶And there came fear upon all; and they talked among themselves, saying: What word is this, for with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they go out?

³⁷And the fame of him was published into every place of the country.

³⁸And Jesus rising up out of the synagogue, went into Simon's house. And Simon's wife's mother was taken with a great fever: and they besought him for her.

³⁹And standing over her, he commanded the fever: and it left her. And immediately rising, she ministered to them.

⁴⁰And when the sun was down, all they that had any sick with divers diseases brought them to him. But he, laying his hands on every one of them, healed them.

⁴¹And devils went out from many, crying out and saying: Thou art the son of God. And rebuking them he suffered them not to speak; for they knew that he was Christ.

⁴²And when it was day, going out he went into a desert place: and the multitudes sought him, and came unto him. And they stayed him that should not depart from them.

⁴³To whom he said: To other cities also I must preach the kingdom of God: for therefore am I sent.
