| 18 And Jesus, walking[124] by the sea
of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon
called Peter, and Andrew his brother, | 16 Now as he walked by the sea of
Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew his brother, |
| casting a net into the sea; for they
were fishers. | casting a net into the sea:
for they were fishers. |
| 19 And he saith unto them, Follow
me, and I will make you fishers of
men. | 17 And Jesus said unto them, Come
ye after me, and I will make you to
become fishers of men. |
| 20 And they straightway left their
nets, and followed him. | 18 And straightway they forsook
their nets, and followed him. |
| 21 And going on from thence, he
saw other two brethren, James the son
of Zebedee, and John his brother, in
a ship with Zebedee their father,[125]
mending their nets: and he called
them. | 19 And when he had gone a little
farther thence, he saw James the son
of Zebedee, and John his brother, who
also were in the ship mending their nets. |
| 22 And they immediately left the
ship, and their father, and followed him. | 20 And straightway he called them:
and they left their father Zebedee in
the ship with the hired servants, and went after him. |
| Luke. | |
| CH. V. 1-11. | |
| And it came to pass, that as the
people pressed upon him to hear the
word of God, he stood by the lake of
Gennesaret, | |
| 2 And saw two ships standing by
the lake: but the fishermen were
gone out of them, and were washing
their nets. | |
| 3 And he entered into one of the
ships which was Simon's, and prayed
him that he would thrust out a little
from the land. And he sat down, and
taught the people out of the ship. | |
| 4 Now, when he had left speaking,
he said unto Simon, Launch out into
the deep, and let down your nets for
a draught. | |
| 5 And Simon, answering, said unto
him, Master, we have toiled all the
night, and have taken nothing; nevertheless,
at thy word I will let down
the net. | |
| 6 And when they had this done,
they enclosed a great multitude of
fishes: and their net brake. | |
| 7 And they beckoned unto their
partners, which were in the other ship,
that they should come and help them.
And they came, and filled both the
ships, so that they began to sink. | |
| 8 When Simon Peter saw it, he
fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart
from me; for I am a sinful man,
O Lord. | |
| 9 For he was astonished, and all
that were with him, at the draught of
the fishes which they had taken: | |
| 10 And so was also James and
John the sons of Zebedee, which were
partners with Simon. And Jesus said
unto Simon, Fear not: from henceforth
thou shalt catch men. | |
| 11 And when they had brought
their ships to land, they forsook all,
and followed him. | |

| CH. I. 21-28. | CH. IV. 31-37. |
| 21 And they went into Capernaum;
and straightway on the sabbath-day
he entered into the synagogue and
taught. | and taught them on the Sabbath-days. |
| 22 And they were astonished at his
doctrine: for he taught them as one that
had authority, and not as the scribes. | 32 And they were astonished at
his doctrine: for his word was with power. |
| 23 And there was in their synagogue
a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, | 33 And in the synagogue there was
a man which had a spirit of an unclean
devil; and he cried out with a loud voice, |
| 24 Saying, Let us alone; what
have we to do with thee, thou Jesus
of Nazareth? art thou, come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art,
the Holy One of God. | 34 Saying, Let us alone; what
have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. |
| 25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying,
Hold thy peace, and come out of him. | 35 And Jesus rebuked him, saying,
Hold thy peace, and come out of
him. And when the devil had thrown
him in the midst, he came out of him,
and hurt him not. |
| 26 And when the unclean spirit
had torn him,[126] and cried with a loud
voice, he came out of him. | 36 And they were all amazed, and
spake among themselves, saying, What
a word is this! for with authority and
power he commandeth the unclean
spirits, and they come out. |
| 27 And they were all amazed, insomuch
that they questioned among
themselves, saying, What thing is
this? what new doctrine is this? for
with authority commandeth he even
the unclean spirits, and they do obey
him. | |
| 28 And immediately his fame spread
abroad throughout all the region round
about Galilee. | 37 And the fame of him went out
into every place of the country round
about. |

| CH. VIII. 14-17. | CH. I. 29-34. |
| 29 And forthwith, when they were
come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and
Andrew, with James and John. |
| 14 And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and
sick of a fever. | 30 But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever; and anon they tell
him of her. |
| 15 And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and
ministered unto them. | 31 And he came and took her by
the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she
ministered unto them. |
| 16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were
possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and
healed all that were sick; | 32 And at even when the sun did
set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were
possessed with devils. |
| 17 That it might be fulfilled which
was spoken by Esaias the prophet,
saying,[127] Himself took our infirmities,
and bare our sicknesses. | 33 And all the city was gathered
together at the door. |
| 34 And he healed many that were
sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the
devils to speak, because they knew him. |
| Luke. | |
| CH. IV. 38-41. | |
| 38 And he arose out of the synagogue,
and entered into Simon's house.
And Simon's wife's mother was taken
with a great fever; and they besought
him for her. | |
| 39 And he stood over her, and rebuked
the fever; and it left her: and
immediately she arose and ministered
unto them. | |
| 40 Now, when the sun was setting,
all they that had any sick with divers
diseases, brought them unto him: and
he laid his hands on every one of
them, and healed them. | |
| 41 And devils also came out of
many, crying out, and saying, Thou
art Christ the Son of God. And he,
rebuking them, suffered them not to
speak: for they knew that he was
Christ. | |

| CH. IV. 23-25. | CH. I. 35-39. |
| 35 And in the morning, rising up a while before day, he went out
and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. |
| 36 And Simon, and they that were with him, followed after him. |
| 37 And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men
seek for thee. |
| 38 And he said unto them, Let us
go into the next towns, that I may
preach there also: for therefore came I forth. |
| 23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and
preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness,
and all manner of disease among the people. | 39 And he preached in their synagogues
throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils. |
| 24 And his fame went throughout
all Syria: and they brought unto him
all sick people that were taken with
divers diseases and torments, and those
which were possessed with devils, and
those which were lunatic, and those
that had the palsy; and he healed
them. | |
| 25 And there followed him great
multitudes of people from Galilee, and
from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem,
and from Judea, and from beyond
Jordan. | |
