¹But Jesus, full of [the] Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan, and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness

¹ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܟܕ ܡܠܐ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ ܗܦܟ ܡܢ ܝܘܪܕܢܢ ܘܕܒܪܬܗ ܪܘܚܐ ܠܚܘܪܒܐ ܀

²forty days, tempted of the devil; and in those days he did not eat anything, and when they were finished he hungered.

²ܝܘܡܬܐ ܐܪܒܥܝܢ ܕܢܬܢܤܐ ܡܢ ܐܟܠܩܪܨܐ ܘܠܐ ܠܥܤ ܡܕܡ ܒܗܢܘܢ ܝܘܡܬܐ ܘܟܕ ܫܠܡ ܐܢܘܢ ܠܚܪܬܐ ܟܦܢ ܀

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

³ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܟܠܩܪܨܐ ܐܢ ܒܪܗ ܐܢܬ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܡܪ ܠܟܐܦܐ ܗܕܐ ܕܬܗܘܐ ܠܚܡܐ ܀

⁴And Jesus answered unto him saying, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

⁴ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܟܬܝܒ ܗܘ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܒܠܚܡܐ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܚܝܐ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܐܠܐ ܒܟܠ ܦܬܓܡ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀

⁵And [the devil], leading him up into a high mountain, shewed him all the kingdoms of the habitable world in a moment of time.

⁵ܘܐܤܩܗ ܤܛܢܐ ܠܛܘܪܐ ܪܡܐ ܘܚܘܝܗ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܒܥܕܢܐ ܙܥܘܪܐ ܀

⁶And the devil said to him, I will give thee all this power, and their glory; for it is given up to me, and to whomsoever I will I give it.

⁶ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܟܠܩܪܨܐ ܠܟ ܐܬܠ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܗܢܐ ܟܠܗ ܘܫܘܒܚܗ ܕܠܝ ܡܫܠܡ ܘܠܡܢ ܕܐܨܒܐ ܝܗܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܗ ܀

⁷If therefore *thou* wilt do homage before me, all [of it] shall be thine.

⁷ܐܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܬܤܓܘܕ ܩܕܡܝ ܕܝܠܟ ܢܗܘܐ ܟܠܗ ܀

⁸And Jesus answering him said, It is written, Thou shalt do homage to [the] Lord thy God, and him alone shalt thou serve.

⁸ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܟܬܝܒ ܗܘ ܕܠܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܟ ܬܤܓܘܕ ܘܠܗ ܒܠܚܘܕܘܗܝ ܬܦܠܘܚ ܀

⁹And he led him to Jerusalem, and set him on the edge of the temple, and said to him, If thou be Son of God, cast thyself down hence;

⁹ܘܐܝܬܝܗ ܠܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܘܐܩܝܡܗ ܥܠ ܟܢܦܐ ܕܗܝܟܠܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܢ ܒܪܗ ܐܢܬ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܪܡܐ ܢܦܫܟ ܡܟܐ ܠܬܚܬ ܀

¹⁰for it is written, He shall give charge to his angels concerning thee to keep thee;

¹⁰ܟܬܝܒ ܓܝܪ ܕܠܡܠܐܟܘܗܝ ܢܦܩܕ ܥܠܝܟ ܕܢܢܛܪܘܢܟ ܀

¹¹and on [their] hands shall they bear thee, lest in any wise thou strike thy foot against a stone.

¹¹ܘܥܠ ܕܪܥܝܗܘܢ ܢܫܩܠܘܢܟ ܕܠܐ ܬܬܩܠ ܪܓܠܟ ܒܟܐܦܐ ܀

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

¹²ܥܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܐܡܝܪ ܗܘ ܕܠܐ ܬܢܤܐ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܟ ܀

¹³And the devil, having completed every temptation, departed from him for a time.

¹³ܘܟܕ ܫܠܡ ܐܟܠܩܪܨܐ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܢܤܝܘܢܘܗܝ ܦܪܩ ܡܢ ܠܘܬܗ ܥܕ ܙܒܢܐ ܀

¹⁴And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee; and a rumour went out into the whole surrounding country about him;

¹⁴ܘܗܦܟ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܚܝܠܐ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܠܓܠܝܠܐ ܘܢܦܩ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܛܒܐ ܒܟܠܗ ܐܬܪܐ ܕܚܕܪܝܗܘܢ ܀

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

¹⁵ܘܗܘ ܡܠܦ ܗܘܐ ܒܟܢܘܫܬܗܘܢ ܘܡܫܬܒܚ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܐܢܫ ܀

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

¹⁶ܘܐܬܐ ܠܢܨܪܬ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܐܬܪܒܝ ܘܥܠ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܡܥܕ ܗܘܐ ܠܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܫܒܬܐ ܘܩܡ ܠܡܩܪܐ ܀

¹⁷And [the] book of the prophet Esaias was given to him; and having unrolled the book he found the place where it was written,

¹⁷ܘܐܬܝܗܒ ܠܗ ܤܦܪܐ ܕܐܫܥܝܐ ܢܒܝܐ ܘܦܬܚ ܝܫܘܥ ܤܦܪܐ ܘܐܫܟܚ ܕܘܟܬܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܟܬܝܒ ܀

¹⁸[The] Spirit of [the] Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach glad tidings to [the] poor; he has sent me to preach to captives deliverance, and to [the] blind sight, to send forth [the] crushed delivered,

¹⁸ܪܘܚܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܥܠܝ ܘܡܛܠ ܗܕܐ ܡܫܚܢܝ ܠܡܤܒܪܘ ܠܡܤܟܢܐ ܘܫܠܚܢܝ ܠܡܐܤܝܘ ܠܬܒܝܪܝ ܠܒܐ ܘܠܡܟܪܙܘ ܠܫܒܝܐ ܫܘܒܩܢܐ ܘܠܥܘܝܪܐ ܚܙܝܐ ܘܠܡܫܪܪܘ ܠܬܒܝܪܐ ܒܫܘܒܩܢܐ ܀

¹⁹to preach [the] acceptable year of [the] Lord.

¹⁹ܘܠܡܟܪܙܘ ܫܢܬܐ ܡܩܒܠܬܐ ܠܡܪܝܐ ܀

²⁰And having rolled up the book, when he had delivered it up to the attendant, he sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed upon him.

²⁰ܘܟܪܟ ܤܦܪܐ ܘܝܗܒܗ ܠܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܘܐܙܠ ܝܬܒ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܕܒܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܥܝܢܝܗܘܢ ܚܝܪܢ ܗܘܝ ܒܗ ܀

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

²¹ܘܫܪܝ ܠܡܐܡܪ ܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܕܝܘܡܢܐ ܐܫܬܠܡ ܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܒܐܕܢܝܟܘܢ ܀

²²And all bore witness to him, and wondered at the words of grace which were coming out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this the son of Joseph?

²²ܘܤܗܕܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܘܡܬܕܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܡܠܐ ܕܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܕܢܦܩܢ ܗܘܝ ܡܢ ܦܘܡܗ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܗܢܐ ܒܪ ܝܘܤܦ ܀

²³And he said to them, Ye will surely say to me this parable, Physician, heal thyself; whatsoever we have heard has taken place in Capernaum do here also in thine own country.

²³ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܟܒܪ ܬܐܡܪܘܢ ܠܝ ܡܬܠܐ ܗܢܐ ܐܤܝܐ ܐܤܐ ܢܦܫܟ ܘܟܠ ܕܫܡܥܢ ܕܥܒܕܬ ܒܟܦܪܢܚܘܡ ܥܒܕ ܐܦ ܗܪܟܐ ܒܡܕܝܢܬܟ ܀

²⁴And he said, Verily I say to you, that no prophet is acceptable in his [own] country.

²⁴ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܠܝܬ ܢܒܝܐ ܕܡܬܩܒܠ ܒܡܕܝܢܬܗ ܀

²⁵But of a truth I say to you, There were many widows in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up for three years and six months, so that a great famine came upon all the land,

²⁵ܫܪܪܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܤܓܝ ܐܪܡܠܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܝ ܒܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܒܝܘܡܝ ܐܠܝܐ ܢܒܝܐ ܟܕ ܐܬܬܚܕܘ ܫܡܝܐ ܫܢܝܢ ܬܠܬ ܘܝܪܚܐ ܫܬܐ ܘܗܘܐ ܟܦܢܐ ܪܒܐ ܒܟܠܗ ܐܪܥܐ ܀

²⁶and to none of them was Elias sent but to Sarepta of Sidonia, to a woman [that was] a widow.

²⁶ܘܠܘܬ ܚܕܐ ܡܢܗܝܢ ܠܐ ܐܫܬܕܪ ܐܠܝܐ ܐܠܐ ܠܨܪܦܬ ܕܨܝܕܢ ܠܘܬ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܐܪܡܠܬܐ ܀

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

²⁷ܘܤܓܝܐܐ ܓܪܒܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܘ ܒܝܬ ܐܝܤܪܝܠ ܒܝܘܡܝ ܐܠܝܫܥ ܢܒܝܐ ܘܚܕ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܐܬܕܟܝ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܢܥܡܢ ܐܪܡܝܐ ܀

²⁸And they were all filled with rage in the synagogue, hearing these things;

²⁸ܘܟܕ ܫܡܥܘ ܗܠܝܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܒܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܐܬܡܠܝܘ ܚܡܬܐ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܀

²⁹and rising up they cast him forth out of the city, and led him up to the brow of the mountain upon which their city was built, so that they might throw him down the precipice;

²⁹ܘܩܡܘ ܐܦܩܘܗܝ ܠܒܪ ܡܢ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܘܐܝܬܝܘܗܝ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܓܒܝܢܐ ܕܛܘܪܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܕܝܢܬܗܘܢ ܒܢܝܐ ܗܘܬ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܕܢܫܕܘܢܝܗܝ ܡܢ ܫܩܝܦܐ ܀

³⁰but *he*, passing through the midst of them, went his way,

³⁰ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܥܒܪ ܒܝܢܬܗܘܢ ܘܐܙܠ ܀

³¹and descended to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbaths.

³¹ܘܢܚܬ ܠܟܦܪܢܚܘܡ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܓܠܝܠܐ ܘܡܠܦ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܒܫܒܐ ܀

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

³²ܘܬܡܝܗܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܝܘܠܦܢܗ ܕܡܫܠܛܐ ܗܘܬ ܡܠܬܗ ܀

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

³³ܘܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܒܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܒܗ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܫܐܕܐ ܛܢܦܐ ܘܙܥܩ ܒܩܠܐ ܪܡܐ ܀

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

³⁴ܘܐܡܪ ܫܒܘܩܝܢܝ ܡܐ ܠܢ ܘܠܟ ܝܫܘܥ ܢܨܪܝܐ ܐܬܝܬ ܠܡܘܒܕܘܬܢ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܡܢ ܐܢܬ ܩܕܝܫܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀

³⁵And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out from him. And the demon, having thrown him down into the midst, came out from him without doing him any injury.

³⁵ܘܟܐܐ ܒܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܤܟܘܪ ܦܘܡܟ ܘܦܘܩ ܡܢܗ ܘܫܕܝܗܝ ܫܐܕܐ ܒܡܨܥܬܐ ܘܢܦܩ ܡܢܗ ܟܕ ܠܐ ܤܪܚ ܒܗ ܡܕܡ ܀

³⁶And astonishment came upon all, and they spoke to one another, saying, What word [is] this? for with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out.

³⁶ܘܬܡܗܐ ܪܒܐ ܐܚܕ ܠܟܠܢܫ ܘܡܡܠܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܥܡ ܚܕܕܐ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܡܢܐ ܗܝ ܟܝ ܡܠܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܕܒܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܘܒܚܝܠܐ ܦܩܕܐ ܠܪܘܚܐ ܛܢܦܬܐ ܘܢܦܩܢ ܀

³⁷And a rumour went out into every place of the country round concerning him.

³⁷ܘܢܦܩ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܛܒܐ ܒܟܠܗ ܐܬܪܐ ܕܚܕܪܝܗܘܢ ܀

³⁸And rising up out of the synagogue, he entered into the house of Simon. But Simon's mother-in-law was suffering under a bad fever; and they asked him for her.

³⁸ܘܟܕ ܢܦܩ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܢ ܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܥܠ ܠܒܝܬܗ ܕܫܡܥܘܢ ܘܚܡܬܗ ܕܫܡܥܘܢ ܐܠܝܨܐ ܗܘܬ ܒܐܫܬܐ ܪܒܬܐ ܘܒܥܘ ܡܢܗ ܡܛܠܬܗ ܀

³⁹And standing over her, he rebuked the fever, and it left her; and forthwith standing up she served them.

³⁹ܘܩܡ ܠܥܠ ܡܢܗ ܘܟܐܐ ܒܐܫܬܗ ܘܫܒܩܬܗ ܘܡܚܕܐ ܩܡܬ ܘܡܫܡܫܐ ܗܘܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܀

⁴⁰And when the sun went down, all, as many as had persons sick with divers diseases, brought them to him, and having laid his hands on every one of them, he healed them;

⁴⁰ܡܥܪܒܝ ܫܡܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܟܪܝܗܐ ܕܟܪܝܗܝܢ ܒܟܘܪܗܢܐ ܡܫܚܠܦܐ ܐܝܬܝܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܠܘܬܗ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܥܠ ܚܕ ܚܕ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܐܝܕܗ ܤܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܘܡܐܤܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܀

⁴¹and demons also went 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 him to be the Christ.

⁴¹ܘܢܦܩܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܐܦ ܫܐܕܐ ܡܢ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܟܕ ܡܙܥܩܝܢ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܟܐܐ ܗܘܐ ܒܗܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܫܒܩ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܢܐܡܪܘܢ ܕܝܕܥܝܢ ܕܗܘܝܘ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܀

⁴²And when it was day he went out, and went into a desert place, and the crowds sought after him, and came up to him, and [would have] kept him back that he should not go from them.

⁴²ܘܠܨܦܪܗ ܕܝܘܡܐ ܢܦܩ ܐܙܠ ܠܗ ܠܐܬܪܐ ܚܘܪܒܐ ܘܟܢܫܐ ܒܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ ܘܐܬܘ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܘܬܗ ܘܐܚܕܘܗܝ ܕܠܐ ܢܐܙܠ ܠܗ ܡܢ ܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܀

⁴³But he said to them, I must needs announce the glad tidings of the kingdom of God to the other cities also, for for this I have been sent forth.

⁴³ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܐܦ ܠܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܐܚܪܢܝܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܠܝ ܠܡܤܒܪܘ ܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܥܠ ܗܕܐ ܗܘ ܐܫܬܕܪܬ ܀

⁴⁴And he was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.

⁴⁴ܘܗܘ ܡܟܪܙ ܗܘܐ ܒܟܢܘܫܬܐ ܕܓܠܝܠܐ ܀
