  10 And even now the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

  1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
  2 And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry.
  3 Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.”
  4 But He replied and said, “It is written, ‘Man will not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”
  5 Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, and set Him on a pinnacle of the temple,
  6 and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. Because it is written: ‘He will give His angels orders concerning You,’ and, ‘in their hands they will hold You up, lest at any time You strike Your foot against a stone.’ ”
  7 Jesus said to him, “It is written again, ‘You shall not tempt the LORD your God.’ ”
  8 Again, the devil took Him up onto a very high mountain, and showed Him  all  the  kingdoms of  the world
and their glory.
  9 And he said to him, “I will give You all these things, if You will fall down and worship me.”
  10 Then Jesus said to him, “Leave Satan! Because it is written, ‘You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only shall you serve.’ ”
  11 Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and minister-ed to Him.
  12 Now when Jesus had heard that John had been thrown into prison, He departed to Galilee.
  13 And leaving  Nazareth, He  came
and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea coast, in the regions of Zebulun and Naphtali,
  14 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying:
  15 “The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, by the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles:
  16 The people who sat in darkness have seen a great Light, and upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death Light has dawned.
  17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, “Repent, because 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; because they were fishermen.
  19 And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.
  20 And they immediately left their nets, and followed Him.
  21 And going on from there, He saw two more brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and He called them.
  22 And immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.
  23 Then Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all types of sickness and every kind of disease among the people.
  24 And His fame went throughout all Syria; and they brought to Him every sick person who was afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were possessed with demons, those who were insane, and paralytics; and He healed them.
  25 And large crowds of people followed Him from Galilee, and from Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.

To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, 6 and has made us kings and priests to God and His Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. 7 Behold, He comes with clouds, and every eye shall see Him, and also those who pierced Him. And all tribes of the earth shall wail because of Him. Even so, Amen. 8 "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending," says the Lord, "who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty." 9 I, John, who also am your brother and companion in tribulation and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. 10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, 11 saying, "I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last," and, "What you see, write in a book, and send it to the seven churches that are in Asia: to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamum, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea." 12 And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me.
