WEB·Matthew 4
1Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
KJVThenG5119 was JesusG2424 led upG321(G5681) ofG5259 the SpiritG4151 intoG1519 the wildernessG2048 to be temptedG3985(G5683) ofG5259 the devilG1228.
2 When he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry afterward.
KJVAndG2532 when he had fastedG3522(G5660) fortyG5062 daysG2250 andG2532 fortyG5062 nightsG3571, he was afterwardG5305 an hungredG3983(G5656).
3 The tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”
KJVAndG2532 when the tempterG3985(G5723) cameG4334(G5631) to himG846, he saidG2036(G5627), IfG1487 thou beG1488(G5748) the SonG5207 of GodG2316, commandG2036(G5628) thatG2443 theseG3778 stonesG3037 be madeG1096(G5638) breadG740.
4 But he answered, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of God’s mouth.’”
KJVButG1161 he answeredG611(G5679) and saidG2036(G5627), It is writtenG1125(G5769), ManG444 shallG2198 notG3756 liveG2198(G5695) byG1909 breadG740 aloneG3441, butG235 byG1909 everyG3956 wordG4487 that proceedethG1607(G5740) out ofG1223 the mouthG4750 of GodG2316.
5 Then the devil took him into the holy city. He set him on the pinnacle of the temple,
KJVThenG5119 the devilG1228 takethG3880 himG846 upG3880(G5719) intoG1519 the holyG40 cityG4172, andG2532 settethG2476(G5719) himG846 onG1909 a pinnacleG4419 of the templeG2411,
6 and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written, ‘He will command his angels concerning you,’ and, ‘On their hands they will bear you up, so that you don’t dash your foot against a stone.’”
KJVAndG2532 saithG3004(G5719) unto himG846, IfG1487 thou beG1488(G5748) the SonG5207 of GodG2316, castG906(G5628) thyselfG4572 downG2736: forG1063 it is writtenG1125(G5769),G3754 He shall giveG1781 hisG846 angelsG32 chargeG1781(G5699) concerningG4012 theeG4675: andG2532 inG1909 their handsG5495 they shall bearG142 theeG4571 upG142(G5692), lest at any timeG3379 thou dashG4350(G5661) thyG4675 footG4228 againstG4314 a stoneG3037.
7 Jesus said to him, “Again, it is written, ‘You shall not test the Lord, your God.’”
KJVJesusG2424 saidG5346(G5713) unto himG846, It is writtenG1125(G5769) againG3825, Thou shaltG1598 notG3756 temptG1598(G5692) the LordG2962 thyG4675 GodG2316.
8 Again, the devil took him to an exceedingly high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.
KJVAgainG3825, the devilG1228 takethG3880 himG846 upG3880(G5719) intoG1519 an exceedingG3029 highG5308 mountainG3735, andG2532 shewethG1166(G5719) himG846 allG3956 the kingdomsG932 of the worldG2889, andG2532 the gloryG1391 of themG846;
9 He said to him, “I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me.”
KJVAndG2532 saithG3004(G5719) unto himG846, AllG3956 these thingsG5023 will I giveG1325(G5692) theeG4671, ifG1437 thou wilt fall downG4098(G5631) and worshipG4352(G5661) meG3427.
10 Then Jesus said to him, “Get behind me, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.’”
KJVThenG5119 saithG3004(G5719) JesusG2424 unto himG846, Get thee henceG5217(G5720), SatanG4567: forG1063 it is writtenG1125(G5769), Thou shalt worshipG4352(G5692) the LordG2962 thyG4675 GodG2316, andG2532 himG846 onlyG3441 shalt thou serveG3000(G5692).
11 Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and served him.
KJVThenG5119 the devilG1228 leavethG863(G5719) himG846, andG2532, beholdG2400(G5628), angelsG32 cameG4334(G5656) andG2532 ministeredG1247(G5707) unto himG846.
12 Now when Jesus heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee.
KJVNowG1161 when JesusG2424 had heardG191(G5660) thatG3754 JohnG2491 was cast into prisonG3860(G5681), he departedG402(G5656) intoG1519 GalileeG1056;
13 Leaving Nazareth, he came and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,
KJVAndG2532 leavingG2641(G5631) NazarethG3478, he cameG2064(G5631) and dweltG2730(G5656) inG1519 CapernaumG2584, whichG3588 is upon the sea coastG3864, inG1722 the bordersG3725 of ZabulonG2194 andG2532 NephthalimG3508:
14 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
KJVThatG2443 it might be fulfilledG4137(G5686) whichG3588 was spokenG4483(G5685) byG1223 EsaiasG2268 the prophetG4396, sayingG3004(G5723),
15 “The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, toward the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,
KJVThe landG1093 of ZabulonG2194, andG2532 the landG1093 of NephthalimG3508, by the wayG3598 of the seaG2281, beyondG4008 JordanG2446, GalileeG1056 of the GentilesG1484;
16 the people who sat in darkness saw a great light; to those who sat in the region and shadow of death, to them light has dawned.”
KJVThe peopleG2992 whichG3588 satG2521(G5740) inG1722 darknessG4655 sawG1492(G5627) greatG3173 lightG5457; andG2532 to them whichG3588 satG2521(G5740) inG1722 the regionG5561 andG2532 shadowG4639 of deathG2288 lightG5457 is sprung upG393(G5656)G846.
17 From that time, Jesus began to preach, and to say, “Repent! For the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”
KJVFromG575 that timeG5119 JesusG2424 beganG756(G5662) to preachG2784(G5721), andG2532 to sayG3004(G5721), RepentG3340(G5720): forG1063 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 is at handG1448(G5758).
18 Walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers: Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew, his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
KJVAndG1161 JesusG2424, walkingG4043(G5723) byG3844 the seaG2281 of GalileeG1056, sawG1492(G5627) twoG1417 brethrenG80, SimonG4613 calledG3004(G5746) PeterG4074, andG2532 AndrewG406 hisG846 brotherG80, castingG906(G5723) a netG293 intoG1519 the seaG2281: forG1063 they wereG2258(G5713) fishersG231.
19 He said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers for men.”
KJVAndG2532 he saithG3004(G5719) unto themG846, FollowG1205(G5773)G3694 meG3450, andG2532 I will makeG4160(G5692) youG5209 fishersG231 of menG444.
