(31)And he came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on the sabbath. (32)And they were struck with astonishment at his teaching; for his discourse was with authority. (33)And there was in the synagogue a man, who had a spirit of an unclean devil, and he roared out with a great cry, (34)saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, Jesus the Nazarean? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy One of God. (35)And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Stop thy mouth, and come out of him. And the devil throwing him down into the midst, came out of him, doing him no injury. (36)And amazement seized on all present, and they spake one to another, saying, What a word is this? for with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out. (37)And the fame of him went forth into all the adjacent region. (38)Then rising up out of the synagogue, he came into the house of Simon: and Simon's mother-in-law was seized with a violent fever, and they besought him on her behalf. (39)And standing over her, he charged the fever _to depart_; and it left her: and immediately she arose, and waited upon them. (40)So when the sun was set, all who had any indisposed with various diseases, brought them to him; and laying his hands severally on each of them, he cured them. (41)And devils also went out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art the Messiah the Son of God. And rebuking them, he suffered them not to speak: for they knew that he was the Messiah. (42)And as the day was coming on, he went forth and departed into a desert place: and the multitude sought him out, and came to him, and would have detained him that he should not leave them. (43)But he said unto them, I must preach the glad tidings of the kingdom of heaven in other cities also: for on this service am I sent. (44)And he continued preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
