¹The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;

¹PRINCIPIO del evangelio de Jesucristo, Hijo de Dios.

²As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

²Como está escrito en Isaías el profeta: He aquí yo envío á mi mensajero delante de tu faz, Que apareje tu camino delante de ti.

³The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

³Voz del que clama en el desierto: Aparejad el camino del Señor; Enderezad sus veredas.

⁴John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

⁴Bautizaba Juan en el desierto, y predicaba el bautismo del arrepentimiento para remisión de pecados.

⁵And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.

⁵Y salía á él toda la provincia de Judea, y los de Jerusalem; y eran todos, bautizados por él en el río de Jordán, confesando sus pecados.

⁶And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;

⁶Y Juan andaba vestido de pelos de camello, y con un cinto de cuero alrededor de sus lomos; y comía langostas y miel silvestre.

⁷And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.

⁷Y predicaba, diciendo: Viene tras mí el que es más poderoso que yo, al cual no soy digno de desatar encorvado la correa de sus zapatos.

⁸I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.

⁸Yo á la verdad os he bautizado con agua; mas él os bautizará con Espíritu Santo.

⁹And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.

⁹Y aconteció en aquellos días, que Jesús vino de Nazaret de Galilea, y fué bautizado por Juan en el Jordán.

¹⁰And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:

¹⁰Y luego, subiendo del agua, vió abrirse los cielos, y al Espíritu como paloma, que descendía sobre él.

¹¹And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

¹¹Y hubo una voz de los cielos que decía: Tú eres mi Hijo amado; en ti tomo contentamiento.

¹²And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness.

¹²Y luego el Espíritu le impele al desierto.

¹³And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.

¹³Y estuvo allí en el desierto cuarenta días, y era tentado de Satanás; y estaba con las fieras; y los ángeles le servían.

¹⁴Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,

¹⁴Mas después que Juan fué encarcelado, Jesús vino á Galilea predicando el evangelio del reino de Dios,

¹⁵And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

¹⁵Y diciendo: El tiempo es cumplido, y el reino de Dios está cerca: arrepentíos, y creed al evangelio.

¹⁶Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

¹⁶Y pasando junto á la mar de Galilea, vió á Simón, y á Andrés su hermano, que echaban la red en la mar; porque eran pescadores.

¹⁷And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.

¹⁷Y les dijo Jesús: Venid en pos de mí, y haré que seáis pescadores de hombres.

¹⁸And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.

¹⁸Y luego, dejadas sus redes, le siguieron.

¹⁹And when he had gone a little farther thence, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their nets.

¹⁹Y pasando de allí un poco más adelante, vió á Jacobo, hijo de Zebedeo, y á Juan su hermano, también ellos en el navío, que aderezaban las redes.

²⁰And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.

²⁰Y luego los llamó: y dejando á su padre Zebedeo en el barco con los jornaleros, fueron en pos de él.

²¹And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.

²¹Y entraron en Capernaum; y luego los sábados, entrando en la sinagoga, enseñaba.

²²And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.

²²Y se admiraban de su doctrina; porque les enseñaba como quien tiene potestad, y no como los escribas.

²³And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,

²³Y había en la sinagoga de ellos un hombre con espíritu inmundo, el cual dió voces,

²⁴Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.

²⁴Diciendo: ­Ah! ¿qué tienes con nosotros, Jesús Nazareno? ¿Has venido á destruirnos? Sé quién eres, el Santo de Dios.

²⁵And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.

²⁵Y Jesús le riñó, diciendo: Enmudece, y sal de él.

²⁶And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.

²⁶Y el espíritu inmundo, haciéndole pedazos, y clamando á gran voz, salió de él.

²⁷And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.

²⁷Y todos se maravillaron, de tal manera que inquirían entre sí, diciendo: ¿Qué es esto? ¿Qué nueva doctrina es ésta, que con potestad aun á los espíritus inmundos manda, y le obedecen?

²⁸And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.

²⁸Y vino luego su fama por toda la provincia alrededor de Galilea.

²⁹And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

²⁹Y luego saliendo de la sinagoga, vinieron á casa de Simón y de Andrés, con Jacobo y Juan.

³⁰But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her.

³⁰Y la suegra de Simón estaba acostada con calentura; y le hablaron luego de ella.

³¹And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.

³¹Entonces llegando él, la tomó de su mano y la levantó; y luego la dejó la calentura, y les servía.

³²And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.

³²Y cuando fué la tarde, luego que el sol se puso, traían á él todos los que tenían mal, y endemoniados;

³³And all the city was gathered together at the door.

³³Y toda la ciudad se juntó á la puerta.

³⁴And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.

³⁴Y sanó á muchos que estaban enfermos de diversas enfermedades, y echó fuera muchos demonios; y no dejaba decir á los demonios que le conocían.

³⁵And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.

³⁵Y levantándose muy de mañana, aun muy de noche, salió y se fué á un lugar desierto, y allí oraba.

³⁶And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.

³⁶Y le siguió Simón, y los que estaban con él;

³⁷And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee.

³⁷Y hallándole, le dicen: Todos te buscan.

³⁸And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.

³⁸Y les dice: Vamos á los lugares vecinos, para que predique también allí; porque para esto he venido.

³⁹And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.

³⁹Y predicaba en las sinagogas de ellos en toda Galilea, y echaba fuera los demonios.

⁴⁰And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

⁴⁰Y un leproso vino á él, rogándole; é hincada la rodilla, le dice: Si quieres, puedes limpiarme.

⁴¹And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.

⁴¹Y Jesús, teniendo misericordia de él, extendió su mano, y le tocó, y le dice: Quiero, sé limpio.

⁴²And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.

⁴²Y así que hubo él hablado, la lepra se fué luego de aquél, y fué limpio.

⁴³And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away;

⁴³Entonces le apercibió, y despidióle luego,

⁴⁴And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

⁴⁴Y le dice: Mira, no digas á nadie nada; sino ve, muéstrate al sacerdote, y ofrece por tu limpieza lo que Moisés mandó, para testimonio á ellos.

⁴⁵But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

⁴⁵Mas él salido, comenzó á publicarlo mucho, y á divulgar el hecho, de manera que ya Jesús no podía entrar manifiestamente en la ciudad, sino que estaba fuera en los lugares desiertos; y venían á él de todas partes.
