4 [4:21]And he said to them, To-day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears. [4:22]And they all bore him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded from his mouth, and said, Is not this the son of Joseph? [4:23]And he said to them, You will undoubtedly tell me this proverb; Physician, cure yourself; things which we heard were done in Capernaum, do also here in your own country. [4:24]And he said, I tell you truly, that no prophet is acceptable in his own country. [4:25]I also tell you of a truth, that there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when heaven was shut up three years and six months, so that there was a great famine over all the land; [4:26]and to none of them was Elijah sent, but to Sarepta, of Sidon, to a widow woman. [4:27]And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed but Naaman the Syrian. [4:28]And all in the synagogue when they heard these things were filled with wrath; [4:29]and they arose and cast him out of the city, and led him even to the brow of the mountain on which the city was built, to precipitate him down. [4:30]But he passed through the midst of them and went away. CHAPTER VI. CHRIST AT CAPERNAUM, AND HIS PREACHING AND MIRACLES IN GALILEE. 1 [4:31]AND he went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath; [4:32]and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word was with power. [4:33]And there was a man in the synagogue having a spirit of an impure demon; and he cried with a loud voice, [4:34]Alas! what have you to do with us, Jesus Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are, the Holy [Son] of God! [4:35]And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hush! and come out of him. And the demon casting him into the midst came out of him, doing him no injury. [4:36]And they were all amazed, and talked with each other, saying, What word is this, that with authority and power he commands the impure spirits, and they come out? [4:37]And a report of him went abroad into every place in the country about. 2 [4:38]And going up from the synagogue he entered into the house of Simon. And Simon's mother-in-law was sick with a violent fever; and they asked him in her behalf. [4:39]And standing over her he rebuked the fever, and it left her. And she immediately arose and waited on them. 3 [4:40]And when the sun went down, all who had friends sick with various diseases brought them to him; and putting his hands on each one of them he cured them; [4:41]and demons also went out of many, crying and saying, You are the Son of God! And he rebuked them, and charged them not to say that they knew him to be the Christ.
