Matthew 4
The New Messianic Version of the Bible
1Then Yeshua [God is Salvation] was taken by Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit [Ruach]) into the wilderness to be tried or tested by Satan [the adversary]. 2He fasted forty days and forty nights and afterwards was hungry. 3The tempter drew near and said to him: 'If you are the Son of Elohim (The Many Powered) [The Living Word of God] say that these stones should turn into bread'. 4Yeshua [God is Salvation] answered and said to him: It is written: "Man does not live by bread alone but man lives by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]"

5Then Satan [the adversary] took him to the holy city, placed him on the highest point in all the temple

6and said to him: 'If you are the Son of Elohim (The Many Powered) [The Living Word of God], jump down, for it is written': "He will give His angels charge over you to guard you in all your ways. They will bear you up in their hands lest you dash your foot against a stone."

7Yeshua [God is Salvation] answered him, again it is written: "You shall not test Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] your Elohim (The Many Powered) [The Living Word of God]".

8So Satan [the adversary] took him to an exceedingly high mountain, showed him all the kingdoms of the earth and their glory 9and said to him: 'All these things I will give you if you bare your head to me'. 10Then Yeshua [God is Salvation] answered him: Go Satan [the adversary], for it is written: “I will pray to Yehovah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] and Him only will you serve". 11Then Satan [the adversary] left him and behold angels drew near to him and ministered to him.

12It came to pass in those days Yeshua [God is Salvation] heard that Yochanan [Yah is gracious] had been delivered up into prison, so he went into Galil [circuit]. 13He passed by Natzeret [separated] and dwelt in K’far-Nachum [town of comfort] on the outskirts of the land of Z’vulun [exaltation] 14in order to fulfill that which Yesha’yahu [the salvation of our God] the Prophet said:

15"Land of Z’vulun [exaltation] and land of Naftali [wrestling], the way of the Sea, beyond the Yarden [descender], Galil [circuit] of the Goyim (Goyim [Gentiles])".

16"The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light; they that dwelt in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined".

17From then on Yeshua [God is Salvation] began to preach and to say: "Turn you in repentance for the Kingdom of heaven is here".

18Yeshua [God is Salvation] went along the shore of the sea of Galil [circuit] and saw two brothers, Shim’on [he has heard], also called Kefa [pebble], and Andrew [of a man] his brother casting their nets into the sea because they were fishermen. 19He said to them: "Come, follow me and I will make you fish for men". 20So they left their nets in that hour and followed him. 21He turned from there and saw two other brothers; Ya’akov [He who grabs onto the heal of] and Yochanan [Yah is gracious]; brothers who were sons of Zavdai [Yah has bestowed]; and their father in a boat setting up their nets and he called them. 22They made haste and left their nets and their father and followed after him.

23Then Yeshua [God is Salvation] went around the land of Galil [circuit] teaching their assemblies and preaching to them the good gift of the Kingdom of heaven and healing all the sick and every disease among the people.

24So8 a report about him went into all the land Syria [etymology is uncertain] and they brought unto him all those who were sick from various kinds of diseases, those possessed by demons, those who were terrified by an evil Spirit [Ruach] and those who shook, and he healed them. 25Many followed him from Decapolis [The 10-Towns] and Galil [circuit], from Yerushalayim [abode of peace], Y’hudah [praised] and across the Yarden [descender].
