¹ኢየሱስም መንፈስ ቅዱስ መልቶበት ከዮርዳኖስ ተመለሰ፥ በመንፈስም ወደ ምድረ በዳ ተመርቶ፥

¹And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan, and was led in the Spirit in the wilderness

²አርባ ቀን ከዲያብሎስ ተፈተነ። በነዚያም ቀኖች ምንም አልበላም፥ ከተጨረሱም በኋላ ተራበ።

²during forty days, being tempted of the devil. And he did eat nothing in those days: and when they were completed, he hungered.

³ዲያብሎስም። የእግዚአብሔር ልጅ ከሆንህ፥ ይህን ድንጋይ። እንጀራ ሁን ብለህ እዘዝ አለው።

³And the devil said unto him, if thou art the Son of God, command this stone that it become bread.

⁴ኢየሱስም። ሰው በእግዚአብሔር ቃል ሁሉ እንጂ በእንጀራ ብቻ አይኖርም ተብሎ ተጽፎአል ብሎ መለሰለት።

⁴And Jesus answered unto him, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone.

⁵ዲያብሎስም ረጅም ወደ ሆነ ተራራ አውጥቶ የዓለምን መንግሥታት ሁሉ በቅጽበት አሳየው።

⁵And he led him up, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

⁶ዲያብሎስም። ይህ ሥልጣን ሁሉ ክብራቸውም ለእኔ ተሰጥቶአል ለምወደውም ለማንም እሰጠዋለሁና ለአንተ እሰጥሃለሁ፤

⁶And the devil said unto him, To thee will I give all this authority, and the glory of them: for it hath been delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.

⁷ስለዚህ አንተ በእኔ ፊት ብትሰግድ፥ ሁሉ ለአንተ ይሆናል አለው።

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

⁸ኢየሱስም መልሶ። ለጌታ ለአምላክህ ስገድ እርሱንም ብቻ አምልክ ተብሎ ተጽፎአል አለው።

⁸And Jesus answered and said unto him, It is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

⁹ወደ ኢየሩሳሌም ደግሞ ወሰደው፤ በመቅደስም ጫፍ ላይ አቁሞ። ይጠብቁህ ዘንድ መላእክቱን ስለ አንተ ያዝልሃል፥ እግርህንም በድንጋይ ከቶ እንዳትሰናከል በእጃቸው ያነሡሃል ተብሎ ተጽፎአልና የእግዚአብሔር ልጅስ ከሆንህ፥ ከዚህ ወደ ታች ራስህን ወርውር አለው።

⁹And he led him to Jerusalem, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence:

¹²ኢየሱስም መልሶ። ጌታን አምላክህን አትፈታተነው ተብሎአል አለው።

¹⁰for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee, to guard thee:

¹³ዲያቢሎስም ፈተናውን ሁሉ ከጨረሰ በኋላ እስከ ጊዜው ከእርሱ ተለየ።

¹¹and, On their hands they shall bear thee up, Lest haply thou dash thy foot against a stone.

¹⁴ኢየሱስም በመንፈስ ኃይል ወደ ገሊላ ተመለሰ፤ ስለ እርሱም በዙሪያው ባለችው አገር ሁሉ ዝና ወጣ።

¹²And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not make trial of the Lord thy God.

¹⁵እርሱም በምኵራባቸው ያስተምር፥ ሁሉም ያመሰግኑት ነበር።

¹³And when the devil had completed every temptation, he departed from him for a season.

¹⁶ወዳደገበትም ወደ ናዝሬት መጣ፤ እንደ ልማዱም በሰንበት ቀን ወደ ምኵራብ ገባ፥ ሊያነብም ተነሣ።

¹⁴And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and a fame went out concerning him through all the region round about.

¹⁷የነቢዩንም የኢሳይያስን መጽሐፍ ሰጡት፥ መጽሐፉንም በተረተረ ጊዜ። የጌታ መንፈስ በእኔ ላይ ነው፥ ለድሆች ወንጌልን እሰብክ ዘንድ ቀብቶኛልና፤ ለታሰሩትም መፈታትን ለዕውሮችም ማየትን እሰብክ ዘንድ፥ የተጠቁትንም ነጻ አወጣ ዘንድ የተወደደችውንም የጌታን ዓመት እሰብክ ዘንድ ልኮኛል ተብሎ የተጻፈበትን ስፍራ አገኘ።

¹⁵And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.

²⁰መጽሐፉንም ጠቅልሎ ለአገልጋዩ ሰጠውና ተቀመጠ፤ በምኵራብም የነበሩት ሁሉ ትኵር ብለው ይመለከቱት ነበር።

¹⁶And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and he entered, as his custom was, into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up to read.

²¹እርሱም። ዛሬ ይህ መጽሐፍ በጆሮአችሁ ተፈጸመ ይላቸው ጀመር።

¹⁷And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Isaiah. And he opened the book, and found the place where it was written,

²²ሁሉም ይመሰክሩለት ነበር ከአፉም ከሚወጣው ከጸጋው ቃል የተነሣ እየተደነቁ። ይህ የዮሴፍ ልጅ አይደለምን? ይሉ ነበር።

¹⁸The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, Because he anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor: He hath sent me to proclaim release to the captives, And recovering of sight to the blind, To set at liberty them that are bruised,

²³እርሱም። ያለ ጥርጥር ይህን ምሳሌ። ባለ መድኃኒት ሆይ፥ ራስህን ፈውስ፤ በቅፍርናሆም እንዳደረግኸው የሰማነውን ሁሉ በዚህ በገዛ አገርህ ደግሞ አድርግ ትሉኛላችሁ አላቸው።

¹⁹To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.

²⁴እንዲህም አለ። እውነት እላችኋለሁ፥ ነቢይ በገዛ አገሩ ከቶ አይወደድም።

²⁰And he closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant, and sat down: and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on him.

²⁵ነገር ግን እውነት እላችኋለሁ፥ በኤልያስ ዘመን ሦስት ዓመት ከስድስት ወር ሰማይ ተዘግቶ ሳለ በምድር ሁሉ ብርቱ ራብ በነበረ ጊዜ፥ በእስራኤል ብዙ መበለቶች ነበሩ፤

²¹And he began to say unto them, To-day hath this scripture been fulfilled in your ears.

²⁶ኤልያስም በሲዶና አገር ወዳለች ወደ ሰራፕታ ወደ አንዲት መበለት እንጂ ከእነርሱ ወደ አንዲቱ አልተላከም።

²²And all bare him witness, and wondered at the words of grace which proceeded out of his mouth: and they said, Is not this Joseph's son?

²⁷በነቢዩ በኤልሳዕ ዘመንም በእስራኤል ብዙ ለምጻሞች ነበሩ፥ ከሶርያዊው ከንዕማን በቀር ከእነርሱ አንድ ስንኳ አልነጻም።

²³And he said unto them, Doubtless ye will say unto me this parable, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done at Capernaum, do also here in thine own country.

²⁸በምኵራብም የነበሩ ሁሉ ይህን ሰምተው ቍጣ ሞላባቸው፥ ተነሥተውም ከከተማ ወደ ውጭ አወጡት፥

²⁴And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is acceptable in his own country.

²⁹ይጥሉትም ዘንድ ከተማቸው ተሠርታባት ወደ ነበረች ወደ ተራራው አፋፍ ወሰዱት፤

²⁵But of a truth I say unto you, There were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when there came a great famine over all the land;

³⁰እርሱ ግን በመካከላቸው አልፎ ሄደ።

²⁶and unto none of them was Elijah sent, but only to Zarephath, in the land of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow.

³¹ወደ ገሊላ ከተማም ወደ ቅፍርናሆም ወረደ። በሰንበትም ያስተምራቸው ነበር፤

²⁷And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, but only Naaman the Syrian.

³²ቃሉ በሥልጣን ነበርና በትምህርቱ ተገረሙ።

²⁸And they were all filled with wrath in the synagogue, as they heard these things;

³³በምኵራብም የርኵስ ጋኔን መንፈስ ያደረበት ሰው ነበረ፥ በታላቅ ድምፅም ጮኾ።

²⁹and they rose up, and cast him forth out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might throw him down headlong.

³⁴ተው፥ የናዝሬቱ ኢየሱስ ሆይ፥ ከአንተ ጋር ምን አለን? ልታጠፋን መጣህን? ማን እንደ ሆንህ አውቄሃለሁ፥ አንተ የእግዚአብሔር ቅዱሱ አለ።

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

³⁵ኢየሱስም። ዝም በል ከእርሱም ውጣ ብሎ ገሠጸው። ጋኔኑም በመካከላቸው ጥሎት ሳይጐዳው ከእርሱ ወጣ።

³¹And he came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. And he was teaching them on the sabbath day:

³⁶ሁሉንም መደነቅ ያዛቸው፥ እርስ በርሳቸውም። ይህ ቃል ምንድር ነው? በሥልጣንና በኃይል ርኵሳን መናፍስትን ያዝዛልና፥ ይወጡማል ብለው ተነጋገሩ።

³²and they were astonished at his teaching; for his word was with authority.

³⁷ዝናም በዙሪያው ባለች አገር ወደ ስፍራው ሁሉ ስለ እርሱ ወጣ።

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

³⁸በምኵራብም ተነሥቶ ወደ ስምዖን ቤት ገባ። የስምዖንም አማት በብርቱ ንዳድ ታማ ነበር ስለ እርስዋም ለመኑት።

³⁴Ah! what have we to do with thee, Jesus thou Nazarene? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.

³⁹በአጠገብዋም ቆሞ ንዳዱን ገሠጸውና ለቀቃት፤ ያንጊዜውንም ተነሥታ አገለገለቻቸው።

³⁵And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him. And when the demon had thrown him down in the midst, he came out of him, having done him no hurt.

⁴⁰ፀሐይም በገባ ጊዜ በልዩ ልዩ ደዌ የተያዙ በሽተኞችን ሁሉ ወደ እርሱ አመጡአቸው፤ እርሱም በእያንዳቸው ላይ እጁን ጭኖ ፈወሳቸው።

³⁶And amazement came upon all, and they spake together, one with another, saying, What is this word? for with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out.

⁴¹አጋንንትም ደግሞ። አንተ ክርስቶስ የእግዚአብሔር ልጅ ነህ እያሉ እየጮኹም ከብዙዎች ይወጡ ነበር፤ ገሠጻቸውም ክርስቶስም እንደ ሆነ አውቀውት ነበርና እንዲናገሩ አልፈቀደላቸውም።

³⁷And there went forth a rumor concerning him into every place of the region round about.

⁴²በጸባም ጊዜ ወጥቶ ወደ ምድረ በዳ ሄደ፤ ሕዝቡም ይፈልጉት ነበር፤ ወደ እርሱም መጡ፥ ከእነርሱም ተለይቶ እንዳይሄድ ሊከለክሉት ወደዱ።

³⁸And he rose up from the synagogue, and entered into the house of Simon. And Simon's wife's mother was holden with a great fever; and they besought him for her.

⁴³እርሱ ግን። ስለዚህ ተልኬአለሁና ለሌሎቹ ከተማዎች ደግሞ የእግዚአብሔርን መንግሥት ወንጌል እሰብክ ዘንድ ይገባኛል አላቸው።

³⁹And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she rose up and ministered unto them.

⁴⁴በገሊላም ምኵራቦች ይሰብክ ነበር።

⁴⁰And when the sun was setting, all they that had any sick with divers diseases brought them unto him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them.

⁴¹And demons also came out from many, crying out, and saying, Thou art the Son of God. And rebuking them, he suffered them not to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.

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

⁴³But he said unto them, I must preach the good tidings of the kingdom of God to the other cities also: for therefore was I sent.

⁴⁴And he was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
