Return to Index

Chapter 1

1


 

  The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.  

 

 

--

2


 

  As it is written in Isaias the prophet: Behold I send my angel before thy face, who shall prepare the way before thee.  

 

 

--

3


 

  A voice of one crying in the desert: Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.  

 

 

--

4


 

  John was in the desert baptizing, and preaching the baptism of penance, unto remission of sins.  

 

 

--

5


 

  And there went out to him all the country of Judea, and all they of Jerusalem, and were baptized by him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.  

 

 

--

6


 

  And John was clothed with camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and he ate locusts and wild honey.  

 

 

--

7


 

  And he preached, saying: There cometh after me one mightier than I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and loose.  

 

 

--

8


 

  I have baptized you with water; but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.  

 

 

--

9


 

  And it came to pass, in those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.  

 

 

--

10


 

  And forthwith coming up out of he water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit as a dove descending, and remaining on him.  

 

 

--

11


 

  And there came a voice from heaven: Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.  

 

 

--

12


 

  And immediately the Spirit drove him out into the desert.  

 

 

--

13


 

  And he was in the desert forty days and forty nights, and was tempted by Satan; and he was with beasts, and the angels ministered to him.  

 

 

--

14


 

  And after that John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,  

 

 

--

15


 

  And saying: The time is accomplished, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent, and believe the gospel.  

 

 

--

16


 

  And passing by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother, casting nets into the sea (for they were fishermen).  

 

 

--

17


 

  And Jesus said to them: Come after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.  

 

 

--

18


 

  And immediately leaving their nets, they followed him.  

 

 

--

19


 

  And going on from thence a little farther, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were mending their nets in the ship:  

 

 

--

20


 

  And forthwith he called them. And leaving their father Zebedee in the ship with his hired men, they followed him.  

 

 

--

21


 

  And they entered into Capharnaum, and forthwith upon the sabbath days going into the synagogue, he taught them.  

 

 

--

22


 

  And they were astonished at his doctrine. For he was teaching them as one having power, and not as the scribes.  

 

 

--

23


 

  And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,  

 

 

--

24


 

  Saying: What have we to do with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know who thou art, the Holy One of God.  

 

 

--

25


 

  And Jesus threatened him, saying: Speak no more, and go out of the man.  

 

 

--

26


 

  And the unclean spirit tearing him, and crying out with a loud voice, went out of him.  

 

 

--

27


 

  And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying: What thing is this? what is this new doctrine? for with power he commandeth even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.  

 

 

--

28


 

  And the fame of him was spread forthwith into all the country of Galilee.  

 

 

--

29


 

  And immediately going out of the synagogue they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.  

 

 

--

30


 

  And Simon's wife's mother lay in a fit of a fever: and forthwith they tell him of her.  

 

 

--

31


 

  And coming to her, he lifted her up, taking her by the hand; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.  

 

 

--

32


 

  And when it was evening, after sunset, they brought to him all that were ill and that were possessed with devils.  

 

 

--

33


 

  And all the city was gathered together at the door.  

 

 

--

34


 

  And he healed many that were troubled with divers diseases; and he cast out many devils, and he suffered them not to speak, because they knew him.  

 

 

--

35


 

  And rising very early, going out, he went into a desert place: and there he prayed.  

 

 

--

36


 

  And Simon, and they that were with him, followed after him.  

 

 

--

37


 

  And when they had found him, they said to him: All seek for thee.  

 

 

--

38


 

  And he saith to them: Let us go into the neighbouring towns and cities, that I may preach there also; for to this purpose am I come.  

 

 

--

39


 

  And he was preaching in their synagogues, and in all Galilee, and casting out devils.  

 

 

--

40


 

  And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down said to him: If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.  

 

 

--

41


 

  And Jesus having compassion on him, stretched forth his hand; and touching him, saith to him: I will. Be thou made clean.  

 

 

--

42


 

  And when he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.  

 

 

--

43


 

  And he strictly charged him, and forthwith sent him away.  

 

 

--

44


 

  And he saith to him: See thou tell no one; but go, shew thyself to the high priest, and offer for thy cleansing the things that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.  

 

 

--

45


 

  But he being gone out, began to publish and to blaze abroad the word: so that he could not openly go into the city, but was without in desert places: and they flocked to him from all sides.
