Mateus 4— comparação

1Então Jesus foi levado pelo Espírito ao deserto, para ser tentado pelo diabo.

2Depois de jejuar quarenta dias e quarenta noites, ele teve fome.

3O tentador aproximou-se e lhe disse: “Se você é o Filho de Deus, mande que estas pedras se transformem em pão.”

4Mas ele respondeu: “Está escrito: ‘Nem só de pão viverá o homem, mas de toda palavra que procede da boca de Deus.’”

5Então o diabo o levou à cidade santa. Ele o colocou sobre o pináculo do templo,

6e lhe disse: “Se você é o Filho de Deus, jogue-se daqui para baixo, pois está escrito:

7Jesus lhe disse: “Também está escrito: ‘Não ponha à prova o Senhor, o seu Deus.’”

8Novamente, o diabo o levou a um monte altíssimo e lhe mostrou todos os reinos do mundo e a glória deles.

9E lhe disse: “Tudo isso lhe darei, se você se prostrar e me adorar.”

10Então Jesus lhe disse: “Para trás de mim, Satanás! Pois está escrito: ‘Adore ao Senhor, o seu Deus, e sirva somente a ele.’”

11Então o diabo o deixou, e eis que anjos vieram e o serviram.

12Quando Jesus ouviu que João tinha sido preso, retirou-se para a Galileia.

13Deixando Nazaré, foi morar em Cafarnaum, que fica à beira-mar, na região de Zebulom e Naftali,

14para que se cumprisse o que foi dito por meio do profeta Isaías, que diz:

15“A terra de Zebulom e a terra de Naftali,

16o povo que estava sentado nas trevas viu uma grande luz;

17Daquele tempo em diante, Jesus começou a pregar e a dizer: “Arrependam-se! Pois o Reino dos Céus está próximo.”

18Andando à beira do mar da Galileia, ele viu dois irmãos: Simão, chamado Pedro, e André, seu irmão, lançando uma rede ao mar; pois eram pescadores.

19Ele lhes disse: “Venham após mim, e eu farei de vocês pescadores de homens.”

20Eles imediatamente deixaram suas redes e o seguiram.

21Indo mais adiante, viu outros dois irmãos: Tiago, filho de Zebedeu, e João, seu irmão. Eles estavam no barco com seu pai, Zebedeu, consertando as redes. Ele os chamou.

22Eles imediatamente deixaram o barco e o pai, e o seguiram.

23Jesus percorria toda a Galileia, ensinando nas sinagogas deles, pregando as Boas Novas do Reino e curando todas as doenças e todas as enfermidades entre o povo.

24As notícias a seu respeito se espalharam por toda a Síria. Trouxeram-lhe todos os que estavam doentes, afligidos por várias doenças e tormentos, endemoninhados, epilépticos e paralíticos; e ele os curou.

25Grandes multidões da Galileia, de Decápolis, de Jerusalém, da Judeia e do outro lado do Jordão o seguiam.

1Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.

2When he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry afterward.

3The tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”

4But he answered, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of God’s mouth.’”*

5Then the devil took him into the holy city. He set him on the pinnacle of the temple,

6and 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.’”

7Jesus said to him, “Again, it is written, ‘You shall not test the Lord, your God.’”*

8Again, the devil took him to an exceedingly high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.

9He said to him, “I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me.”

10Then 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.’”*

11Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and served him.

12Now when Jesus heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee.

13Leaving Nazareth, he came and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,

14that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,

15“The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, toward the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,

16the 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.”

17From that time, Jesus began to preach, and to say, “Repent! For the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”*

18Walking 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.

19He said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers for men.”*

20They immediately left their nets and followed him.

21Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them.

22They immediately left the boat and their father, and followed him.

23Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.

24The report about him went out into all Syria. They brought to him all who were sick, afflicted with various diseases and torments, possessed with demons, epileptics, and paralytics; and he healed them.

25Great multitudes from Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and from beyond the Jordan followed him.
