Mark 1:9-15
9It happened in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
11A voice came out of the sky, "You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."
12Immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness.
13He was there in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals. The angels ministered to him.
14Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
15and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand! Repent, and believe in the gospel."
