Mark 1:11-22 Modern English Version (MEV)

11. And a voice came from heaven, saying, “You are My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased.”

12. The Spirit immediately drove Him into the wilderness.

13. And He was there in the wilderness for forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts. And the angels ministered to Him.

14. After John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,

15. saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent and believe the gospel.”

16. As He walked by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew, his brother, throwing a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.

17. Jesus said to them, “Come, follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.”

18. Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.

19. When He had gone a little farther from there, He saw James the son of Zebedee and John, his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.

20. Immediately He called them. And they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants and followed Him.

21. They went to Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the synagogue and taught.

22. They were astonished at His teaching, for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
