1 Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness
2 and was .xl. dayes tempted of the devyll. And in thoose dayes ate he no thinge. And when they were ended he afterward hongred.
2 for forty days, being tempted by the devil. He ate nothing in those days. Afterward, when they were completed, he was hungry.
3 And the devyll sayde vnto him: yf thou be the sonne of God commaunde this stone that it be breed.
3 The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”
4 And Iesus answered hym sayinge: It is written: man shall not live by breed only but by every worde of God.
4 Jesus answered him, saying, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.’”
5 And the devyll toke him vp into an hye moutayne and shewed him all the kyngdoms of the worlde even in the twincklinge of an eye.
5 The devil, leading him up on a high mountain, showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6 And the devyll sayde vnto him: all this power will I geve the every whit and the glory of them: for that is delyvered to me and to whosoever I will I geve it.
6 The devil said to him, “I will give you all this authority and their glory, for it has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I want.
7 Yf thou therfore wilt worshippe me they shalbe all thyne.
7 If you therefore will worship before me, it will all be yours.”
8 Iesus answered him and sayde: hence from me Sathan. For it is written: Thou shalt honour the Lorde thy God and him only serve.
8 Jesus answered him, “Get behind me, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.’”
9 And he caryed him to Ierusalem and set him on a pynacle of the temple and sayd vnto him: Yf thou be the sonne of God cast thy silfe doune from hens.
9 He led him to Jerusalem and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, cast yourself down from here,
10 For it is written he shall geve his angels charge over the to kepe the,
10 for it is written, ‘He will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you;’
11 and with there hondis they shall stey the vp that thou dasshe not thy fote agaynst a stone.
11 and, ‘On their hands they will bear you up, lest perhaps you dash your foot against a stone.’”
12 Iesus answered and sayde to him it is sayd: thou shalt not tempte the Lorde thy God.
12 Jesus answering, said to him, “It has been said, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’”
13 Assone as the devyll had ended all his temptacions he departed from him for a season.
13 When the devil had completed every temptation, he departed from him until another time.
14 And Iesus retourned by the power of the sprete in to Galile and there went a fame of him thorowe oute all the region roude aboute.

17 And ther was delyvered vnto him the boke of the Prophete Esaias. And when he had opened the boke he founde the place where it was written.
17 The book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. He opened the book, and found the place where it was written,
18 The sprete of the lorde vpon me because he hath annoynted me: to preache the gospell to the poore he hath sent me: and to heale the broken harted: to preache delyverauce to the captive and sight to the blinde and frely to set at lyberte them that are brused
18 “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the broken hearted, to proclaim release to the captives, recovering of sight to the blind, to deliver those who are crushed,
19 and to preache the acceptable yeare of the Lorde.
