Revised Literal Translation
1AndG1161 JesusG2424 being fullG4134 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151 returnedG5290 fromG575 JordanG3588G2446, andG2532 was ledG71 byG1722 the SpiritG3588G4151 intoG1519 the wildernessG3588G2048, 2BeingG3985 fortyG5062 daysG2250 temptedG3985 ofG5259 the devilG3588G1228. AndG2532 inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG3588G2250 he did eatG5315 nothingG3762: andG2532 when theyG846 were endedG4931, heG3983 afterwardG5305 hungeredG3983. 3AndG2532 the devilG3588G1228 saidG3004 unto himG846, IfG1487 thou beG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG3588G2316, commandG3004 thisG3778 stoneG3588G3037 thatG2443 it be madeG1096 breadG740. 4AndG2532 JesusG2424 answeredG611 himG846, sayingG3004, It is writtenG1125, ThatG3754 manG3588G444 shallG2198 notG3756 liveG2198 byG1909 breadG740 aloneG3441, butG235 byG1909 everyG3956 wordG4487 of GodG2316. 5AndG2532 the devilG1228, takingG321 himG846 upG321 intoG1519 anG3735 highG5308 mountainG3735, shewedG1166 unto himG846 allG3956 the kingdomsG3588G932 of the worldG3588G3625 inG1722 a momentG4743 of timeG5550. 6AndG2532 the devilG1228 saidG3004 unto himG846, AllG537 thisG3778 authorityG3588G1849 will I giveG1325 theeG4771, andG2532 the gloryG3588G1391 of themG846: for thatG3754 is deliveredG3860 unto meG1473; andG2532 to whomsoeverG1437 I willG2309 I giveG1325 itG846. 7IfG1437 thouG4771 thereforeG3767 wilt worshipG4352 meG1473, allG3956 shall beG1510 thineG4771. 8AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 and saidG3004 unto himG846, Get theeG5217 behindG3694 meG1473, SatanG4567: forG1063 it is writtenG1125, Thou shalt worshipG4352 the LordG2962 thyG4771 GodG3588G2316, andG2532 himG846 onlyG3441 shalt thou serveG3000. 9AndG2532 he broughtG71 himG846 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 setG2476 himG846 onG1909 a pinnacleG3588G4419 of the templeG3588G2411, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, IfG1487 thou beG1510 the SonG3588G5207 of GodG3588G2316, castG906 thyselfG4572 downG2736 from henceG1782: 10ForG1063 it is writtenG1125, He shall giveG1781 hisG846 angelsG3588G32 chargeG1781 overG4012 theeG4771, to keepG1314 theeG4771: 11AndG2532 inG1909 their handsG5495 they shall bearG142 theeG4771 upG142, lest at any timeG3379 thou dashG4350 thyG4771 footG3588G4228 againstG4314 a stoneG3037. 12AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 answeringG611 saidG3004 unto himG846, It is saidG2046, Thou shaltG1598 notG3756 temptG1598 the LordG2962 thyG4771 GodG3588G2316. 13AndG2532 whenG4931 the devilG1228 had endedG4931 allG3956 the temptationG3986, he departedG868 fromG575 himG846 forG891 a seasonG2540.
14AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 returnedG5290 inG1722 the powerG3588G1411 of the SpiritG3588G4151 intoG1519 GalileeG3588G1056: andG2532 there went outG1831 a fameG5345 ofG4012 himG846 throughG2596 allG3650 the region round aboutG4066. 15AndG2532 heG846 taughtG1321 inG1722 theirG846 synagoguesG3588G4864, being glorifiedG1392 ofG5259 allG3956.
16AndG2532 he cameG2064 toG1519 NazarethG3478, whereG3757 he had beenG1510 brought upG5142: andG2532, asG2596 hisG846 custom wasG1486, he wentG1525 intoG1519 the synagogueG3588G4864 onG1722 the sabbathG3588G4521 dayG3588G2250, andG2532 stood upG450 for to readG314. 17AndG2532 there was deliveredG1929 unto himG846 the bookG975 of the prophetG3588G4396 IsaiahG2268. AndG2532 when he had openedG380 the bookG3588G975, he foundG2147 the placeG3588G5117 whereG3757 it wasG1510 writtenG1125, 18The SpiritG4151 of the LordG2962 is uponG1909 meG1473, becauseG1752 he hath anointedG5548 meG1473 to preach the gospelG2097 to the poorG4434; he hath sentG649 meG1473 to healG2390 the brokenheartedG4937, to preachG2784 deliveranceG859 to the captivesG164, andG2532 recovering of sightG309 to the blindG5185, to setG649 atG1722 libertyG859 them that are bruisedG2352, 19To preachG2784 the acceptableG1184 yearG1763 of the LordG2962. 20AndG2532 he closedG4428 the bookG3588G975, and he gaveG591 it againG591 to the ministerG3588G5257, and sat downG2523. AndG2532 the eyesG3588G3788 of all themG3956 that wereG1510 inG1722 the synagogueG3588G4864 were fastenedG816 on himG846. 21AndG1161 he beganG756 to sayG3004 untoG4314 themG846, This dayG4594 isG4137 thisG3778 scriptureG3588G1124 fulfilledG4137 inG1722 yourG4771 earsG3588G3775. 22AndG2532 allG3956 bareG3140 himG846 witnessG3140, andG2532 wonderedG2296 atG1909 theG3588G3056 graciousG3588G5485 wordsG3588G3056 whichG3588 proceededG1607 out ofG1537 hisG846 mouthG3588G4750. AndG2532 they saidG3004, IsG1510 notG3756 thisG3778 Joseph’sG2501 sonG3588G5207? 23AndG2532 he saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846, Ye willG2046 surelyG3843 sayG2046 unto meG1473 thisG3778 proverbG3588G3850, PhysicianG2395, healG2323 thyselfG4572: whatsoeverG3745 we have heardG191 doneG1096 inG1722 CapernaumG2584, doG4160 alsoG2532 hereG5602 inG1722 thyG4771 countryG3588G3968. 24AndG1161 he saidG3004, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG4771, NoG3762 prophetG4396 isG1510 acceptedG1184 inG1722 his ownG846 countryG3588G3968. 25ButG1161 I tellG3004 youG4771 ofG1909 a truthG225, manyG4183 widowsG5503 wereG1510 inG1722 IsraelG2474 inG1722 the daysG3588G2250 of ElijahG2243, whenG3753 the heavenG3588G3772 was shut upG2808 threeG5140 yearsG2094 andG2532 sixG1803 monthsG3376, whenG5613 greatG3173 famineG3042 wasG1096 throughoutG1909 allG3956 the landG3588G1093; 26ButG2532 untoG4314 noneG3762 of themG846 wasG3992 ElijahG2243 sentG3992, saveG3361 untoG1519 SareptaG4558, a city of SidonG3588G4605, untoG4314 a womanG1135 that was a widowG5503. 27AndG2532 manyG4183 lepersG3015 wereG1510 inG1722 IsraelG3588G2474 in the timeG1909 of ElishaG1666 the prophetG3588G4396; andG2532 noneG3762 of themG846 was cleansedG2511, savingG3361 NaamanG3497 the SyrianG3588G4948. 28AndG2532 all theyG3956 inG1722 the synagogueG3588G4864, when they heardG191 these thingsG3778, were filledG4130 with wrathG2372, 29AndG2532 rose upG450, and thrustG1544 himG846 out ofG1854 the cityG3588G4172, andG2532 ledG71 himG846 untoG2193 the browG3588G3790 of the hillG3588G3735 whereonG1909 theirG846 cityG3588G4172 was builtG3618, thatG1519 they might castG2630 himG846 down headlongG2630. 30ButG1161 heG846 passingG1330 throughG1223 the midstG3319 of themG846 went his wayG4198, 31AndG2532 came downG2718 toG1519 CapernaumG2584, a cityG4172 of GalileeG3588G1056, andG2532 taughtG1321 themG846 onG1722 the sabbath daysG3588G4521. 32AndG2532 they were astonishedG1605 atG1909 hisG846 doctrineG3588G1322: forG3754 hisG846 wordG3588G3056 wasG1510 withG1722 authorityG1849.
33AndG2532 inG1722 the synagogueG3588G4864 there wasG1510 a manG444, which hadG2192 a spiritG4151 of an uncleanG169 devilG1140, andG2532 cried outG349 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, 34SayingG3004, LetG1436 us aloneG1436; whatG5101 have we to doG1473 with theeG4771, thou JesusG2424 of NazarethG3479? art thou comeG2064 to destroyG622 usG1473? I knowG1492 theeG4771 whoG5101 thou artG1510; the Holy OneG40 of GodG3588G2316. 35AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 rebukedG2008 himG846, sayingG3004, Hold thy peaceG5392, andG2532 come outG1831 ofG1537 himG846. And whenG2532 the devilG3588G1140 had thrownG4496 himG846 inG1519 the midstG3319, he cameG1831 out ofG575 himG846, and hurtG984 himG846 notG3367. 36AndG2532 they wereG1096 allG3956 amazedG2285, andG2532 spakeG4814 amongG4314 themselvesG240, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 a wordG3588G3056 is thisG3778! forG3754 withG1722 authorityG1849 andG2532 powerG1411 he commandethG2004 the uncleanG169 spiritsG4151, andG2532 they come outG1831. 37AndG2532 the fameG2279 ofG4012 himG846 went outG1607 intoG1519 everyG3956 placeG5117 of the country round aboutG4066.
38AndG1161 he aroseG450 out ofG1537 the synagogueG3588G4864, and enteredG1525 intoG1519 Simon’sG4613 houseG3588G3614. AndG1161 Simon’sG3588G4613 wife’s motherG3588G3994 wasG1510 taken withG4912 a greatG3173 feverG4446; andG2532 they besoughtG2065 himG846 forG4012 herG846. 39AndG2532 he stoodG2186 overG1883 herG846, and rebukedG2008 the feverG3588G4446; andG2532 it leftG863 herG846: andG1161 immediatelyG3916 she aroseG450 and ministeredG1247 unto themG846. 40
Now whenG1161 the sunG3588G2246 was settingG1416, allG3956 they thatG3745 hadG2192 any sickG770 with diversG4164 diseasesG3554 broughtG71 themG846 untoG4314 himG846; andG1161 he laidG2007 his handsG3588G5495 on everyG1538 oneG1520 of themG846, and healedG2323 themG846. 41AndG1161 devilsG1140 alsoG2532 came outG1831 ofG575 manyG4183, crying outG2896, andG2532 sayingG3004, ThouG4771 artG1510 ChristG3588G5547 the SonG3588G5207 of GodG3588G2316. AndG2532 he rebukingG2008 them sufferedG1439 themG846 notG3756 to speakG2980: forG3754 they knewG1492 that heG846 wasG1510 ChristG3588G5547. 42AndG1161 when it wasG1096 dayG2250, he departedG1831 and wentG4198 intoG1519 a desertG2048 placeG5117: andG2532 the peopleG3588G3793 soughtG2212 himG846, andG2532 cameG2064 untoG2193 himG846, andG2532 stayedG2722 himG846, that he should notG3361 departG4198 fromG575 themG846. 43AndG1161 he saidG3588G3004 untoG4314 themG846, IG1473 mustG1163 preachG2097 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316 to otherG3588G2087 citiesG4172 alsoG2532: forG3754 thereforeG1519G3778 am I sentG649. 44AndG2532 he preachedG2784 inG1722 the synagoguesG3588G4864 of GalileeG3588G1056.
