¹ثم أصعد يسوع الى البرية من الروح ليجرب من ابليس.

¹Then Jesus was carried up into the wilderness by the Spirit to be tempted of the devil:

²فبعدما صام اربعين نهارا واربعين ليلة جاع اخيرا.

²and having fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards he hungered.

³فتقدم اليه المجرب وقال له ان كنت ابن الله فقل ان تصير هذه الحجارة خبزا.

³And the tempter coming up to him said, If thou be Son of God, speak, that these stones may become loaves of bread.

⁴فاجاب وقال مكتوب ليس بالخبز وحده يحيا الانسان بل بكل كلمة تخرج من فم الله.

⁴But he answering said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word which goes out through God's mouth.

⁵ثم اخذه ابليس الى المدينة المقدسة واوقفه على جناح الهيكل.

⁵Then the devil takes him to the holy city, and sets him upon the edge of the temple,

⁶وقال له ان كنت ابن الله فاطرح نفسك الى اسفل. لانه مكتوب انه يوصي ملائكته بك. فعلى اياديهم يحملونك لكي لا تصدم بحجر رجلك.

⁶and says to him, If thou be Son of God cast thyself down; for it is written, He shall give charge to his angels concerning thee, and on [their] hands shall they bear thee, lest in anywise thou strike thy foot against a stone.

⁷قال له يسوع مكتوب ايضا لا تجرب الرب الهك.

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

⁸ثم اخذه ايضا ابليس الى جبل عال جدا واراه جميع ممالك العالم ومجدها.

⁸Again the devil takes him to a very high mountain, and shews him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory,

⁹وقال له اعطيك هذه جميعها ان خررت وسجدت لي.

⁹and says to him, All these things will I give thee if, falling down, thou wilt do me homage.

¹⁰حينئذ قال له يسوع اذهب يا شيطان. لانه مكتوب للرب الهك تسجد واياه وحده تعبد.

¹⁰Then says Jesus to him, Get thee away, Satan, for it is written, Thou shalt do homage to [the] Lord thy God, and him alone shalt thou serve.

¹¹ثم تركه ابليس واذا ملائكة قد جاءت فصارت تخدمه

¹¹Then the devil leaves him, and behold, angels came and ministered to him.

¹²ولما سمع يسوع ان يوحنا اسلم انصرف الى الجليل.

¹²But having heard that John was delivered up, he departed into Galilee:

¹³وترك الناصرة واتى فسكن في كفرناحوم التي عند البحر في تخوم زبولون ونفتاليم.

¹³and having left Nazareth, he went and dwelt at Capernaum, which is on the sea-side in the borders of Zabulon and Nepthalim,

¹⁴لكي يتم ما قيل باشعياء النبي القائل.

¹⁴that that might be fulfilled which was spoken through Esaias the prophet, saying,

¹⁵ارض زبولون وارض نفتاليم طريق البحر عبر الاردن جليل الامم.

¹⁵Land of Zabulon and land of Nepthalim, way of [the] sea beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations:

¹⁶الشعب الجالس في ظلمة ابصر نورا عظيما. والجالسون في كورة الموت وظلاله اشرق عليهم نور.

¹⁶-- the people sitting in darkness has seen a great light, and to those sitting in [the] country and shadow of death, to them has light sprung up.

¹⁷من ذلك الزمان ابتدأ يسوع يكرز ويقول توبوا لانه قد اقترب ملكوت السموات

¹⁷From that time began Jesus to preach and to say, Repent, for the kingdom of the heavens has drawn nigh.

¹⁸واذ كان يسوع ماشيا عند بحر الجليل ابصر اخوين سمعان الذي يقال له بطرس واندراوس اخاه يلقيان شبكة في البحر فانهما كانا صيادين.

¹⁸And walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishers;

¹⁹فقال لهما هلم ورائي فاجعلكما صيادي الناس.

¹⁹and he says to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.

²⁰فللوقت تركا الشباك وتبعاه.

²⁰And they, having left their trawl-nets, immediately followed him.

²¹ثم اجتاز من هناك فرأى اخوين آخرين يعقوب بن زبدي ويوحنا اخاه في السفينة مع زبدي ابيهما يصلحان شباكهما فدعاهما.

²¹And going on thence he saw other two brothers, James the [son] of Zebedee and John his brother, in the ship with Zebedee their father, mending their trawl-nets, and he called them;

²²فللوقت تركا السفينة واباهما وتبعاه

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

²³وكان يسوع يطوف كل الجليل يعلم في مجامعهم ويكرز ببشارة الملكوت ويشفي كل مرض وكل ضعف في الشعب.

²³And [Jesus] went round the whole [of] Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the glad tidings of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every bodily weakness among the people.

²⁴فذاع خبره في جميع سورية. فاحضروا اليه جميع السقماء المصابين بامراض واوجاع مختلفة والمجانين والمصروعين والمفلوجين فشفاهم.

²⁴And his fame went out into the whole [of] Syria, and they brought to him all that were ill, suffering under various diseases and pains, and those possessed by demons, and lunatics, and paralytics; and he healed them.

²⁵فتبعته جموع كثيرة من الجليل والعشر المدن واورشليم واليهودية ومن عبر الاردن

²⁵And great crowds followed him from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judaea, and beyond the Jordan.
