New Testament

Matthew 4:7-18 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

7. Jesus said to him, "On the other hand, it is written, 'You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.'"

8. Again, the devil took Him to a very high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory;

9. and he said to Him, "All these things I will give You, if You fall down and worship me."

10. Then Jesus said to him, "Go, Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God, and serve Him only.'"

11. Then the devil left Him; and behold, angels came and began to minister to Him.

12. Now when Jesus heard that John had been taken into custody, He withdrew into Galilee;

13. and leaving Nazareth, He came and settled in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali.

14. This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet:

15. "The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles-

16. "The people who were sitting in darkness saw a great Light, And those who were sitting in the land and shadow of death, Upon them a Light dawned."

17. From that time Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

18. Now as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon who was called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
