Matthew 4

12 Ref Now when he heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee;

13 Ref and leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali:

14 Ref that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,

15 Ref The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, Toward the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,

16 Ref The people that sat in darkness Saw a great light, And to them that sat in the region and shadow of death, To them did light spring up.

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

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

19 Ref And he saith unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you fishers of men.

20 Ref And they straightway left the nets, and followed him.

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

22 Ref And they straightway left the boat and their father, and followed him.

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

24 Ref And the report of him went forth into all Syria: and they brought unto him all that were sick, holden with divers diseases and torments, possessed with demons, and epileptic, and palsied; and he healed them.

25 Ref And there followed him great multitudes from Galilee and Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judaea and `from' beyond the Jordan.
