Mattityahu 4

1Then Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was led up into the midbar by the Ruach Hakodesh of Hashem to undergo nisyonos (temptations) by HaSatan.
2And, having undergone a tzom (fast) for arba'im yom varbaim lailah (forty days and forty nights), afterward Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was famished.
3And the tempter came to him and said to him, If you are the Ben HaElohim, then speak the command that these avanim (stones) become lechem (bread).
4But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach answered, Katuv (It is written), LO AL HALECHEM LVADOH YCHEYEH HAADAM, KI AL KOL MOTZAH FI HASHEM#4:4 Dt 8:3 (Man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of Hashem).
5Then HaSatan takes Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach to the Ir Hakodesh (the Holy City) and sets him atop the pinnacle of the Beis Hamikdash,
6and says to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, If you are the Ben HaElohim, then throw yourself down, for katuv (it is written), MALACHAV YTZAV-VEH LACH (His angels he will command concerning you) and upon their hands they will lift you up lest you strike your foot against a stone, (Ps 91:11,12.)
7Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to HaSatan, Again, it is written, LO TENASSU ES HASHEM ELOHEICHEM#4:7 Dt 6:16 (Do not test Hashem your G-d).
8Again, HaSatan takes Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach to a very high mountain and shows him all the mamlechot (kingdoms) of the Olam Hazeh and the kavod (glory) of them.
9And HaSatan said to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, All these things I will give to you, if you will fall down VTISHTACHAVEH (and you will bow down to)#4:9 Dt 5:9 me.
10Then Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, Depart, HaSatan! For katuv (it is written), ES HASHEM ELOHEICHA TIRA VOTO TAAVOD#4:10 Dt 6:13 (The L-rd your G-d you shall fear and Him you shall worship).
11Then HaSatan leaves him, and, hinei, malachim came and attended to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
12Now, having heard that Yochanan was arrested, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach departed into the Galil.
13And having left behind Natzeret, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach headquartered in K'far-Nachum by the sea, in the environs of Zevulun and Naphtali.
14This was to fulfill what was spoken through Yeshayah HaNavi,
15ARTZAH Zevulun VARTZAH Naphtali (To the land of Zevulun and to the land of Naphtali),#4:15 Isa 9:1-2 [8:23—9:1] the way to the sea beyond the Yarden, Galil HaGoyim,
16the people sitting in CHOSHECH RAU OHR GADOL (darkness saw a great light), YOSHVEI V'ERETZ TZALMAVET (the ones living in the land of the shadow of death), a light has dawned among them.
17From then Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach began to proclaim, saying, LAlter LiTeshuvah (Immediate Repentance), for the Malchut HaShomayim has come near.
18And walking beside Sea of Galilee (Lake Kinneret), Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach saw two achim, Shim'on, the one being called Kefa (Petros), and his brother Andrew, casting a net into the sea, for they were daiyagim (fishermen).
19And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says, Come, follow me, and I will make you daiyagei adam (fishers of men).
20And immediately, leaving their nets, they followed Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
21And having gone on from there, he saw two other achim, Ya'akov Ben Zavdai and Yochanan his brother, in the sirah (boat) with Zavdai their father, repairing their nets, and he summoned them.
22Immediately, leaving the sirah (boat) and their father, they followed Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.#4:22 Mt 19:29
23And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went about in all the Galil, exercising the ministry of moreh (teacher) in their shuls and of darshan (preacher) of the Besuroh Tovoh (Good Tiding of a Joyous Event), the Besuras HaGeulah (the Good News of Redemption) of the Malchut Hashem, and Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went about bringing refuah (healing) to every disease and every illness of the people.
24And the report went out about Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach throughout all Syria; and they brought to him all the cholim (sick) with various illnesses and machalot, demoniacs, epileptics, and paralytics; and Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach brought them refuah.
25And from the Galil, the Decapolis, Yerushalayim, Yehudah, and Ever-HaYarden, from all these places great multitudes followed him.

Mattithyahu (Matthew) 4
4
1Then יהושע was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tried by the devil.
2And after having fasted forty days and forty nights, He was hungry.
3And the trier came and said to Him, “If You are the Son of Elohim, command that these stones become bread.”
4But He answering, said, “It has been written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of יהוה.’ ”# Deu. 8:3
5Then the devil took Him up into the set-apart city, set Him on the edge of the Set-apart Place,
6and said to Him, “If You are the Son of Elohim, throw Yourself down. For it has been written, ‘He shall command His messengers concerning you,’# Psa. 91:11 and, ‘In their hands they shall bear you up, so that you do not dash your foot against a stone.’ ”# Psa. 91:12
7יהושע said to him, “It has also been written, ‘You shall not try יהוה your Elohim.’ ”# Deu. 6:16
8Again, the devil took Him up on a very high mountain, and showed Him all the reigns of the world, and their esteem,
9and said to Him, “All these I shall give You if You fall down and worship me.”
10Then יהושע said to him, “Go, Satan! For it has been written, ‘You shall worship יהוה your Elohim, and Him alone you shall serve.’ ”# Deu. 6:13
11Then the devil left Him, and see, messengers came and attended Him.
12And יהושע, having heard that Yoḥanan had been put in prison, withdrew into Galil.
13And leaving Natsareth, He came and dwelt in Kephar Naḥum, which is by the sea, in the borders of Zeḇulun and Naphtali,
14to fill what was spoken by Yeshayahu the prophet, saying,
15“Land of Zeḇulun and land of Naphtali, the way of the sea, beyond the Yardĕn, Galil of the nations –
16the people who sat in darkness saw a great light, and upon those who sat in the land and shadow of death, light arose to them.”# Isa. 9:1, 2
17From that time יהושע began to proclaim and to say, “Repent, for the reign of the heavens has drawn near.”
18And יהושע, walking by the Sea of Galil, saw two brothers, Shim‛on called Kĕpha, and Andri his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
19And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I shall make you fishers of men.”
20And immediately they left their nets and followed Him.
21And going on from there, He saw two other brothers, Ya‛aqoḇ the son of Zaḇdai, and Yoḥanan his brother, in the boat with Zaḇdai their father, mending their nets. And He called them,
22and immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.
23And יהושע went about all Galil, teaching in their congregations, and proclaiming the Good News of the reign, and healing every disease and every bodily weakness among the people.
24And news about Him went out into all Suria. And they brought to Him all who were sick, afflicted with various diseases and pains, and those who were demon-possessed, and epileptics, and paralytics. And He healed them.
25And large crowds – from Galil, and Dekapolis, and Yerushalayim, and Yehuḏah, and beyond the Yardĕn – followed Him.
