¹Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

¹Ary Jesosy dia nentin'ny Fanahy nankany an-efitra, mba halain'ny devoly fanahy.[Devoly = mpiampanga, na mpanendrikendrika]

²And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.

²Ary nifady hanina efa-polo andro sy efa-polo alina Izy, koa nony afaka izany, dia noana.

³And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

³Dia nanatona ny mpaka fanahy ka nanao taminy hoe: Raha Zanak'Andriamanitra Hianao, dia teneno ho tonga mofo ireto vato ireto.

⁴But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

⁴Fa Izy kosa namaly ka nanao hoe: Voasoratra hoe: Tsy mofo ihany no hiveloman'ny olona, fa ny teny rehetra izay aloaky ny vavan'Andriamanitra (Deo. 8. 3).

⁵Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,

⁵Ary ny devoly nitondra Azy nankany amin'ny tanàna masina ka nampitoetra Azy teo an-tampon ny tempoly,

⁶And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

⁶dia nanao taminy hoe: Raha Zanak'Andriamanitra Hianao, mianjerà any ambany any; fa voasoratra hoe: Izy handidy ny anjeliny ny aminao; Ary eny an-tànany no hitondran'ireo Anao, fandrao ho tafintohina amin'ny vato ny tongotrao (Sal. 91. 11, 12).

⁷Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

⁷Hoy Jesosy taminy: Voasoratra hoe koa: Aza maka fanahy an'i Jehovah Andriamanitrao (Deo. 6. 16).

⁸Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

⁸Ary ny devoly nitondra Azy Indray nankany an-tendrombohitra avo dia avo ka naneho Azy ny fanjakana rehetra amin'izao tontolo izao mbamin'ny voninahiny,

⁹And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

⁹dia nanao taminy hoe: Izao rehetra izao dia homeko Anao, raha hiankohoka eto anatrehako Hianao.

¹⁰Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

¹⁰Fa hoy Jesosy taminy: Mandehana ianao, ry Satana: fa voasoratra hoe; Jehovah Andriamanitrao no hiankohofanao, ary Izy irery ihany no hotompoinao (Deo. 6. 13).

¹¹Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

¹¹Dia nandao Azy ny devoly, ary indreo, nisy anjely tonga ka nanompo Azy.

¹²Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee;

¹²Ary nony ren'i Jesosy fa efa voasambotra Jaona, dia lasa nankany Galilia Izy.

¹³And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:

¹³Ary nony niala tany Nazareta Izy, dia nankany Kapernaomy, izay ao amoron-dranomasina, ao amin'ny zara-tanin'ny Zebolona sy ny Naftaly, ka nonina tao Izy,

¹⁴That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

¹⁴mba hahatanteraka izay nampilazaina an'Isaia mpaminany hoe:

¹⁵The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;

¹⁵Ny tanin'ny Zebolona sy ny tanin'ny Naftaly, Ao amin'ny tany amoron-dranomasina, any an-dafin'i Jordana, Galilia, tanin'ny jentilisa,

¹⁶The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

¹⁶Ny olona izay nitoetra tao amin'ny maizina dia nahita mazava lehibe; Ary izay nitoetra tao amin'ny tany aloky ny fahafatesana no niposahan'ny fahazavana (Isa. 8. 23; 9. 1).

¹⁷From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

¹⁷Ary tamin'izany andro izany dia nanomboka nitori-teny Jesosy ka nanao hoe: Mibebaha ianareo, fa efa akaiky ny fanjakan'ny lanitra.

¹⁸And Jesus, 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.

¹⁸Ary nony nitsangantsangana teny amoron'ny Ranomasin'i Galilia Jesosy, dia nahita olona mirahalahy, dia Simona, izay atao hoe Petera, sy Andrea rahalahiny, nanarato teny amin'ny ranomasina; fa mpanarato izy.

¹⁹And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.

¹⁹Dia hoy Jesosy taminy: Andeha hanaraka Ahy, fa hataoko mpanarato olona ianareo.

²⁰And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

²⁰Dia nandao ny harato niaraka tamin'izay izy ka nanaraka Azy.

²¹And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.

²¹Ary raha mbola nandroso Izy, dia nahita olona mirahalahy hafa koa, dia Jakoba zanak'i Zebedio, sy Jaona rahalahiny, izay niara-nipetraka tamin'i Zebedio rainy teo an-tsambokely ka namboatra ny haratony; ary niantso azy mirahalahy Izy.

²²And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.

²²Dia nandao ny sambokely sy ny rainy niaraka tamin'izay izy ka nanaraka Azy.

²³And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.

²³Ary Jesosy nandeha eran'i Galilia ka nampianatra tao amin'ny synagogan'ny olona teo sy nitory ny filazantsaran'ny fanjakana ary nahasitrana ny aretina rehetra mbamin'ny rofy rehetra tamin'ny olona.

²⁴And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.

²⁴Ary niely eran'i Syria ny lazany, ka dia nentin'ny olona tany aminy ny marary rehetra, izay azon'ny aretina maro samy hafa sy ny fangirifiriana, dia ny demoniaka sy izay mararin'ny androbe ary ny mararin'ny paralysisa, ka nahasitrana ireny Izy.[Demoniaka = olona nidiran'ny demonia; izahao Mat.7.22]Dia nanaraka Azy ny vahoaka betsaka avy tany Galilia sy Dekapolisy sy Jerosalema sy Jodia ary ny avy tany an-dafin'i Jordana.

²⁵And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.

²⁵Dia nanaraka Azy ny vahoaka betsaka avy tany Galilia sy Dekapolisy sy Jerosalema sy Jodia ary ny avy tany an-dafin'i Jordana.
