20 Diciendo: Levantate y toma al niño y á su madre, y vete á tierra de Israel porque muertos son los que atentaban á la vida del niño.

21 Entonces levantandose él tomó al niño, y á su madre, y vinose á tierra de Israel.

22 Mas habiendo oido que Archelao reynaba en Judea en lugar de su padre Herodes temió ir allá y avisado en sueños se retiró á tierra de Galilea.

23 Y vinó y habitó en una ciudad llamada Nazareth paraque se cumpliese lo que habían dicho los profetas: Será llamado Nazareno.

20 Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life.

21 And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

22 But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee :

23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.

CAPITULO III.

2 Y diciendo: Arrepentíos porque el reyno de los cielos está cerca. 3 Porque este es aquel de quien habló el profeta Isaias diciendo: Voz del que clama en el desierto: Aparejad el camino del Señor, haced derechas sus sendas.

4 Y el mismo Juan llevaba un vestido de pelos de camello, y un cinto de cuero al rededor de sus lomos, y su comida eran langostas y miel silvestre.

5 Entónces salió á él Jerusalem, y toda la Judea, y toda la tierra de la comarca del Jordan.

6 Y eran bautizados por él en el Jordan confesando sus pecados.

7 Mas viendo que muchos de los Pháriseos y Saduceos venían á su bautismo les dijó: oh generacion de viboras! ¿quién os ha enseñado á huir de la ira venidera?

8 Producid pues frutos dignos de arrepentimiento.

9 Y no penséis en decir interior

CHAPTER III.

N those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judea,

2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

4 And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.

5 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judea, and all the region round about Jordan,

6 And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.

7 ¶ But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:

9 And think not to say within

padre; porque yo os digo: que poderoso es Dios para levantar hijos á Abraham aún de estas piedras.

10 Y ahora tambien ya está puesta la segur á la raiz de los árboles. Y todo árbol que no produce buen fruto cortado será, y echado al fuego.

11 Yo en verdad os bautizo en agua para arrapentimiento, mas él que viene en pos de mí, mas poderoso es que yo, cuyos zapatos no soy digno de llevar. El os bautizará en el Espiritu Santo, y en fuego.

12 Su bieldo está en su mano, y limpiará bien la era, y recogerá su trigo en la trox mas la paja "la quemará en un fuego inextinguible.

13 Entónces Jesus vinó de Galilea al Jordan á encontrar á Juan para ser bautizado de él.

10 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

12 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

13 Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.

14 But John forbade him, saying, have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?

15 And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.

16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:

17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

CHAPTER IV.

THEN was Jesus led up of the

tempted of the devil.

2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward ahungered.

3 And when the tempter came to

dijó: Si eres Hijo de Dios, dí que estas piedras se hagan panes.

4 Mas él respondiendo le dijó : Escrito está no de solo pan vivirá el hombre, mas de toda palabra que sale de la boca de Dios.

5 Entonces le tomó el diablo, le llevó á la Santa Ciudad, y le pusó sobre las almenas del templo.

6 Y le dijo: Si eres Hijo de Dios echate de aquí abajo, porque escrito está que te encomendará á sus ángeles, y te tomarán en sus manos paraque tu pié no tropieze con piedra alguna.

7 Y Jesus le dijó: tambien está escrito: No tentarás al Señor tu Dios.

8 De nuevo el diablo le subió á un monte muy encumbrado, y le mostró todos los reynos del mundo, y la glória de ellos.

9 Y le dijo: te daré todas estas cosas si postrado me adorares.

10 Entónces Jesus le respondió: Apartate Satanas; porque escrito está: Adorarás al Señor tu Dios, y á él solo servirás.

11 Entonces le dejó el diablo, y he aquí los ángeles llegaron, y le servían.

12 Mas cuando Jesus oyó que Juan estaba en prision volvióse á Galilea.

13 Y dejando á Nazareth, vinó, y moró en Capharnaum ciudad marítima en los confines de Zabulon, y Nephtalim.

14 Paraque se cumpliese lo que fué dicho por el profeta Isaias que dijó.

15 La tierra de Zabulon, y la tierra de Naphtalim, camino del mar al otro lado del Jordan, Galilea de los Gentiles.

16 Pueblo sentado en tinieblas vió

him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,

6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

12 Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee;

13 And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zebulun and Nephthalim:

14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

15 The land of Zebulun, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;

16 The people which sat in dark

region y sombra de la muerte, luz les amaneció.

17 Desde aquel punto comenzó Jesus á predícar y á decir: Arrepentíos porque el reyno de los cielos está cerca.

18 Y Jesus yendo por la costa del mar de Galilea vió á dos hermanos Simon, llamado Pedro, y Andres su hermano que echaban la red en el mar, pues eran pescadores.

19 Y les dijó: Seguidme, y yo

which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

18 ¶ And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea for they were fishers.

19 And he saith unto them, Fol

20 Y ellos dejadas al instante las redes, le siguieron.

21 Y pasando de allí adelante vió á otros dos hermanos Jacobo hijo de Zebedeo, y su hermano Juan que estaban en un barco con su padre Zebedeo remendando las redes, y les llamó.

22 Y ellos immediatamente deja

20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

21 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.

him.

23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.

24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatic, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.

25 And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judea, and from beyond Jordan.

CHAPTER V.

ND seeing the multitudes, he

when he was set, his disciples came unto him:

2 Y abriendo su boca les enseñaba diciendo.

3 Bienaventurados los pobres de espíritu, porque de ellos es el reyno de los cielos.

4 Bienaventurados los afligidos, porque ellos serán consolados.

5 Bienaventurados los mansos, porque ellos recibirán en herencia la tierra.

6 Bienaventurados los que tienen hambre y sed de justicia, porque ellos serán saciados.

7 Bienaventurados los misericordiosos, porque ellos alcanzarán misericordia.

8 Bienaventurados los limpios de corazon, porque ellos verán á Dios. 9 Bienaventurados los pacíficos, porque ellos serán llamados hijos de Dios.

10 Bienaventurados los que padecen persecucion por causa de la justicia, porque de ellos es el reyno de los cielos.

11 Bienaventurados sois cuando os maldijeren, y os persiguieren, y dijeren todo mal de vosotros con falsedad por mi causa.

12 Gozaos y alegraos porque es grande vuestro galardon en los cielos, porque así persiguieron á los profetas que fueron antes de

vosotros.

13 Vosotros sois la sal de la tierra, y si la sal perdiere su sabor¿con que se hará salada? No vale ya para nada sino para ser echada fuera y pisada de los hombres.

14 Vosotros sois la luz del mundo. Una ciudad situada sobre un monte no puede esconderse.

15 Ni se enciende una vela para ponerla bajo un celemin sino en el candelero, y así alumbra á todos los de la casa.

2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.

15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

16 Let your light so shine before

17 ¶ Think not that I am com!
