Matthæum 4

VULGATA	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Tunc Jesus ductus est in desertum a Spiritu, ut tentaretur a diabolo.	1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit out into the desert to be put to the test by the devil.
2 Et cum jejunasset quadraginta diebus, et quadraginta noctibus, postea esuriit.	2 He fasted for forty days and forty nights, after which he was hungry,
3 Et accedens tentator dixit ei : Si Filius Dei es, dic ut lapides isti panes fiant.	3 and the tester came and said to him, 'If you are Son of God, tel these stones to turn into loaves.'
4 Qui respondens dixit : Scriptum est : Non in solo pane vivit homo, sed in omni verbo, quod procedit de ore Dei.	4 But he replied, 'Scripture says: Human beings live not on bread alone but on every word that comesfrom the mouth of God.'
5 Tunc assumpsit eum diabolus in sanctam civitatem, et statuit eum super pinnaculum templi,	5 The devil then took him to the holy city and set him on the parapet of the Temple.
6 et dixit ei : Si Filius Dei es, mitte te deorsum. Scriptum est enim : Quia angelis suis mandavit de te, et in manibus tollent te, ne forte offendas ad lapidem pedem tuum.	6 'If you are Son of God,' he said, 'throw yourself down; for scripture says: He has given his angels ordersabout you, and they will carry you in their arms in case you trip over a stone.'
7 Ait illi Jesus : Rursum scriptum est : Non tentabis Dominum Deum tuum.	7 Jesus said to him, 'Scripture also says: Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'
8 Iterum assumpsit eum diabolus in montem excelsum valde : et ostendit ei omnia regna mundi, et gloriam eorum,	8 Next, taking him to a very high mountain, the devil showed him al the kingdoms of the world and theirsplendour.
9 et dixit ei : Hæc omnia tibi dabo, si cadens adoraveris me.	9 And he said to him, 'I wil give you al these, if you fal at my feet and do me homage.'
10 Tunc dicit ei Jesus : Vade Satana : Scriptum est enim : Dominum Deum tuum adorabis, et illi soli servies.	10 Then Jesus replied, 'Away with you, Satan! For scripture says: The Lord your God is the one to whomyou must do homage, him alone you must serve.'
11 Tunc reliquit eum diabolus : et ecce angeli accesserunt, et ministrabant ei.	11 Then the devil left him, and suddenly angels appeared and looked after him.
12 Cum autem audisset Jesus quod Joannes traditus esset, secessit in Galilæam :	12 Hearing that John had been arrested he withdrew to Galilee,
13 et, relicta civitate Nazareth, venit, et habitavit in Capharnaum maritima, in finibus Zabulon et Nephthalim :	13 and leaving Nazara he went and settled in Capernaum, beside the lake, on the borders of Zebulun andNaphtali.
14 ut adimpleretur quod dictum est per Isaiam prophetam :	14 This was to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah:
15 Terra Zabulon, et terra Nephthalim, via maris trans Jordanem, Galilæa gentium :	15 Land of Zebulun! Land of Naphtali! Way of the sea beyond Jordan. Galilee of the nations!
16 populus, qui sedebat in tenebris, vidit lucem magnam : et sedentibus in regione umbræ mortis, lux orta est eis.	16 The people that lived in darkness have seen a great light; on those who lived in a country of shadowdark as death a light has dawned.
17 Exinde cœpit Jesus prædicare, et dicere : Pœnitentiam agite : appropinquavit enim regnum cælorum.	17 From then onwards Jesus began his proclamation with the message, 'Repent, for the kingdom ofHeaven is close at hand.'
18 Ambulans autem Jesus juxta mare Galilææ, vidit duos fratres, Simonem, qui vocatur Petrus, et Andream fratrem ejus, mittentes rete in mare (erant enim piscatores),	18 As he was walking by the Lake of Galilee he saw two brothers, Simon, who was cal ed Peter, and hisbrother Andrew; they were making a cast into the lake with their net, for they were fishermen.
19 et ait illis : Venite post me, et faciam vos fieri piscatores hominum.	19 And he said to them, 'Come after me and I wil make you fishers of people.'
20 At illi continuo relictis retibus secuti sunt eum.	20 And at once they left their nets and followed him.
21 Et procedens inde, vidit alios duos fratres, Jacobum Zebedæi, et Joannem fratrem ejus, in navi cum Zebedæo patre eorum, reficientes retia sua : et vocavit eos.	21 Going on from there he saw another pair of brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John;they were in their boat with their father Zebedee, mending their nets, and he cal ed them.
22 Illi autem statim relictis retibus et patre, secuti sunt eum.	22 And at once, leaving the boat and their father, they fol owed him.
23 Et circuibat Jesus totam Galilæam, docens in synagogis eorum, et prædicans Evangelium regni : et sanans omnem languorem, et omnem infirmitatem in populo.	23 He went round the whole of Galilee teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of thekingdom and curing al kinds of disease and il ness among the people.
24 Et abiit opinio ejus in totam Syriam, et obtulerunt ei omnes male habentes, variis languoribus, et tormentis comprehensos, et qui dæmonia habebant, et lunaticos, et paralyticos, et curavit eos :	24 His fame spread throughout Syria, and those who were suffering from diseases and painful complaintsof one kind or another, the possessed, epileptics, the paralysed, were all brought to him, and he cured them.
25 et secutæ sunt eum turbæ multæ de Galilæa, et Decapoli, et de Jerosolymis, et de Judæa, et de trans Jordanem.	25 Large crowds fol owed him, coming from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judaea and Transjordan.
