aves him; and behold, angels came and

(12)And hearing that John was delivered up, he retired into Galilee.
(13)And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by
the sea, in the borders 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 that sat in darkness, saw great light,
And to those sitting in the region and shadow of death light
sprang up.
(17)From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say: Repent, for the
kingdom of heaven is at hand. (18)And walking by the sea of Galilee,
he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother,
casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. (19)And he says

they, immediately leaving the nets, followed him. (21)And going on
from thence, he saw other two brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and
John his brother, in the ship with Zebedee their father, mending their
nets; and he called them. (22)And they, immediately leaving the ship
and their father, followed him.

and every infirmity among the people. (24)And his fame went forth into
all Syria; and they brought to him all that were sick, taken with
divers diseases and torments, and possessed with demons, and lunatic,
and palsied; and he healed them. (25)And great multitudes followed him
from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judaea, and from
beyond the Jordan.

(10)Happy they who are persecuted for righteousness' sake; for theirs
is the kingdom o
