For it is written, he shall geue his aungels charge ouer the, & with their handes they shal holde the vp, that thou dashe not thy fote against a stone: 7 And Iesus said to him, it is written also: Thou shalt not tempt thy lord God. 8 The deuil toke him vp again & ledde him into an exceding hye mountayne, and shewed him all the kingdoms of the world, & al the glory of them, 9 & said to him: al these wyl I geue the, if thou wilt fall doune & worshyppe me. 10 Then sayd Iesus vnto him. Auoide sathan. For it is wrytten, thou shalt worshippe the Lord thy God and him only shalt thou serue. 11 Then the diuel left him, & beholde, the aungels came and ministred vnto him. 12 When Iesus had heard that Iohn was taken, he departed into Galile 13 and left Nazareth, and went and dwelt in Capernaum, which is a citye vpon the sea, in the coastes of Zabulon & Nephthalim, 14 to fulfil that which was spoken by Esay the prophete, sayinge. 15 The lande of Zabulon and Nephthalym, the waye of the sea beyonde Iordan, Galile of the gentils, 16 the people which sate in darkenes, sawe great light, & to them which sate in the regyon and shadowe of death, light is begonne to shine. 17 From the tyme Iesus began to preache, & to say repent for the kingdom of heauen is at hand. 18 As Iesus walked by the sea of Galile, he sawe two brethren: Symon which was called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fysshers, 19 & he sayed vnto them, folowe me, and I wyll make you fysshers of men. 20 And they straight waye left their nettes, and folowed hym. 21 And he went forth from thence, and sawe other two brethren, Iames the sonne of Zebede, and Ihon his brother, in the shippe wyth Zebede their father, mending their nets, and called them. 22 And they without tarringe left the shyp and their father and folowed hym. 23 And Iesus went about al Galile, teaching in their sinagoges, & preaching the gospel of the kingdome, & healed al maner of sickenes, & all maner of diseases among the people. 24 And his fame sprede abrode through out all Siria. And they brought vnto him all sycke people that were taken with diuers diseases & gripinges, and them that were possessed with deuils and those which were lunatike, & those that had the palsie: & he healed them, 25 & their folowed hym a great numbre of people, from Galyle.
