1

Eisht va Yeesey er ny leeideil liorish Spyrryd Yee gys yn aasagh, dy v'er ny violaghey liorish y drogh-spyrryd.

Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

2

As tra v'eh er drostey da-eed laa as da-eed oie v'eh ny lurg shen accryssagh.

And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.

3

As haink y mioleyder huggey, gra, My she mac Yee oo, cur sarey da ny claghyn shoh dy ve jeant nyn arran.

And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

4

Agh dreggyr eshyn, gra, Te, scruit, Cha nee liorish arran ny lomarcan nee dooinney beaghey, agh liorish dy chooilley ockle ta cheet magh ass beeal Yee.

But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

5

Eisht ghow y drogh-spyrryd lesh seose eh gys yn ard-valley casherick, as hoie eh eh er beinn toor syrjey yn chiamble,

Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,

6

As dooyrt eh rish, My she Mac Yee oo tilg oo hene sheese: son te scruit, Ver eh currym da e ainleyn my-dty-chione, as ayns nyn laueyn nee ad oo y ymmyrkey, nagh bwoaill oo ec traa erbee dty chass noi chlagh.

And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

7

Dooyrt Yeesey rish, Te scruit myrgeddin, Cha jean oo yn Chiarn dty Yee y violaghey.

Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

8

Reesht hug y drogh-spyrryd lesh eh seose er slieau feer ard, as yeeagh eh da ooilley reeriaghtyn y theihll as y ghloyr oc:

Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

9

As dooyrt eh rish, Ooilley shoh ver-ym's dhyt's, my huittys oo sheese, as ooashley chur dou.

And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

10

Eisht dooyrt Yeesey rish, Ass my enish oo, Noid-ny-hanmey: son te scruit, Ver oo ooashley da'n Chiarn dty Yee, as eshyn ynrycan nee oo shirveish.

Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

11

Eisht daag y drogh-spyrryd eh, as cur-my-ner haink ainleyn as ren ad shirveish er.

Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

12

Nish tra cheayll Yeesey dy row Ean ny phryssoonagh, jimmee eh dy lhiattee gys Galilee.

Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee;

13

As faagail Nazareth, haink eh dy chummal ayns Capernaum, ta rish oirr ny marrey, rish ardjyn Zabulon as Nephthalim:

And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:

14

As shoh myr va cooilleenit shen ny loayr Esaias yn phadeyr, gra

That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

15

Thalloo Zabulon, as thalloo Nephthalim, er slyst ny marrey, cheu elley dy Yordan, Galilee ny Ashoonee:

The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;

16

Ta'n pobble va nyn soie ayns dorraghys, er vakin soilshey mooar: as orroosyn va nyn soie ayns cheer as scadoo'n vaaish, ta soilshey er n'irree seose.

The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

17

Veih yn traa shen ren Yeesey toshiaght dy phreacheil, as dy ghra, Gow-jee arrys, son ta reeriaght niau er-gerrey.

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

18

As myr va Yeesey shooyl liorish keayn Ghalilee, honnick eh daa vraar, Simon va enmyssit Peddyr, as Andreays e vraar, cur magh lieen 'sy cheayn: (son v'ad nyn eeasteyryn)

And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

19

As dooyrt eh roo, Eiyr-jee orrym's, as neem's shiu nyn eeasteyryn dy gheiney.

And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.

20

As chelleeragh daag ad nyn lieenteenyn, as deiyr ad er.

And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

21

As goll er e hoshiaght veih shen, honnick eh daa vraar elley, Jamys mac Zebedee as Ean e vraar, ayns lhong marish Zebedee nyn ayr, karraghey nyn lieen: as deïe eh orroo.

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, mending their nets; and he called them.

22

As chelleeragh daag ad y lhong as nyn ayr, as deiyr ad er.

And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.

23

As hie Yeesey mygeayrt ooilley Galilee, gynsaghey ayns nyn gialteenyn, as preacheil sushtal y reeriaght, as lheihys dy chooilley hingys, as dy chooilley ghoghan mastey'n pobble.

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.

24

As hie goo jeh magh trooid ooilley Syria: as hug ad lhieu huggey ooilley ny aslayntee, fo doghanyn as pianyn, adsyn va seaghnit lesh drogh-spyrrydyn, sleih ass nyn geeayl, as an-lheiltee, as ren eh ad y lheihys.

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 lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.

25

As deiyr er chaglym mooar dy leih veih Galilee, as Decapolis, as Jerusalem, as Judea, as veih cheu elley dy Yordan.

And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.
