Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ
according to Saint Mark 1:12-15.
Evangelio según San Marcos 1,1215.
The Spirit drove Jesus out into the
desert,
and he remained in the desert for
forty days, tempted by Satan. He
was among wild beasts, and the
angels ministered to him.
After John had been arrested, Jesus
came to Galilee proclaiming the
gospel of God:
"This is the time of fulfillment. The
kingdom of God is at hand. Repent,
and believe in the gospel."
En seguida el Espíritu lo llevó al
desierto,
donde estuvo cuarenta días y fue
tentado por Satanás. Vivía entre las
fieras, y los ángeles lo servían.
Después que Juan fue arrestado,
Jesús se dirigió a Galilea. Allí
proclamaba la Buena Noticia de
Dios, diciendo:
"El tiempo se ha cumplido: el Reino
de Dios está cerca. Conviértanse y
crean en la Buena Noticia".
