2As it is written in the prophet Isaiah, "See! I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way.

10Just as he was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens split open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.

12At once the Spirit drove him into the wilderness.

14Now after John had been arrested, Jesus went to Galilee and proclaimed the gospel about the kingdom of God.

15He said, "The time is now! The kingdom of God is near! Repent, and keep believing the gospel!"

16While Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew. They were throwing a net into the sea because they were fishermen.

16As he passed alongside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew, Simon's brother, casting a net into the sea--for they were fishermen.

17Jesus told them, "Follow me, and I'll make you fishers of people!"

17"Follow me," Jesus told them, "and I will make you fish for people."

18So immediately they left their nets and followed him.

19Going on a little farther, he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John. They were in a boat repairing their nets.

21Then they went to Capernaum. As soon as it was the Sabbaths, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach.

21They went into Capernaum, and right away he entered the synagogue on the Sabbath and began to teach.

22The people were utterly amazed at his teaching, because he was teaching them like one with authority, and not like their scribes.

23All of a sudden, there was a man in their synagogue who had an unclean spirit! He screamed,

23Just then a man with an unclean spirit was in their synagogue. He cried out,

24"What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!"

24"What do you have to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are--the Holy One of God!"

25But Jesus rebuked him. "Be quiet," he ordered, "and come out of him!"

25Jesus rebuked him saying, "Be silent, and come out of him!"

26At this, the unclean spirit shook the man, cried out with a loud voice, and came out of him.

26And the unclean spirit threw him into convulsions, shouted with a loud voice, and came out of him.

27All the people were so stunned that they kept saying to each other, "What is this? A new teaching with authority! He tells even the unclean spirits what to do, and they obey him!"

27They were all amazed, and so they began to ask each other: "What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him."

28At once his fame began to spread throughout the surrounding region of Galilee.

28At once the news about him spread throughout the entire vicinity of Galilee.

29After they left the synagogue, they went directly to the house of Simon and Andrew, along with James and John.

30Now Simon's mother-in-law was lying in bed, sick with a fever, so they promptly told Jesus about her.

35In the morning, while it was still very dark, Jesus got up and went to a deserted place and prayed there.

36Simon and his companions searched frantically for him.

37When they found him, they told him, "Everyone's looking for you."

37and when they found him they said, "Everyone is looking for you."

38"Let's go to the neighboring town," he replied, "so I can preach there, too, because that's why I came."

38And he said to them, "Let's go on to the neighboring villages so that I may preach there too. This is why I have come."

39So he went throughout Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.

40Then a leper came to Jesus and began pleading with him. He fell on his knees and told him, "If you want to, you can make me clean."

40Then a man with leprosy came to him and, on his knees, begged him: "If you are willing, you can make me clean."

41Moved with compassion, Jesus reached out his hand, touched him, and told him, "I do want to. Be made clean!"

41Moved with compassion, Jesus reached out his hand and touched him. "I am willing," he told him. "Be made clean."

42Instantly the leprosy left him, and he was clean.

43Then Jesus sternly warned him and encouraged him to go at once.

43Then he sternly warned him and sent him away at once,

44He told the man, "Be sure that you don't tell anyone. Instead, go and show yourself to the priest, and then offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded as proof to the authorities."

44telling him, "See that you say nothing to anyone; but go and show yourself to the priest, and offer what Moses commanded for your cleansing, as a testimony to them."

45But when the man left, he began to proclaim it freely. He spread the news so widely that Jesus could no longer enter a town openly, but had to stay out in deserted places. Still, people kept coming to him from everywhere.
