7. Jesus answered him, “It also says in the Scriptures, ‘Do not test the Lord your God.’”
8. Then the devil led Jesus to the top of a very high mountain. He showed Jesus all the kingdoms of the world and all the great things that are in those kingdoms.
9. The devil said, “If you will bow down and worship me, I will give you all these things.”
10. Jesus said to the devil, “Go away from me, Satan! It is written in the Scriptures, ‘You must worship the Lord your God. Serve only him!’”
11. So the devil left Jesus. And then some angels came to Jesus and helped him.
12. Jesus heard that John had been put in prison. So Jesus went back to Galilee.
13. He left Nazareth and went and lived in Capernaum, a town near Lake Galilee. Capernaum is in the area near Zebulun and Naphtali.
14. Jesus did this to make true what the prophet Isaiah said:
15. “Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtaliare on the way to the sea.They are along the Jordan River.This is Galilee where the non-Jewish people live.
16. These people who live in darknesswill see a great light.They live in a place that is very dark.But a light will shine on them.” Isaiah 9:1-2
17. From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, “Change your hearts and lives, because the kingdom of heaven is coming soon.”
18. Jesus was walking by Lake Galilee. He saw two brothers, Simon (called Peter) and Simon’s brother Andrew. The brothers were fishermen, and they were fishing in the lake with a net.
19. Jesus said, “Come follow me. I will make you fishermen for men.”
20. At once Simon and Andrew left their nets and followed him.
