|
|
|
1 |
And Jesus being full
of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the
wilderness,
|
|
|
2 |
Being forty days
tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they
were ended, he afterward hungered.
|
|
3 |
And the devil said
unto him, If thou be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made
bread.
|
|
4 |
And Jesus answered
him, saying, It is written, That man shall not
live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
|
|
5 |
And the devil,
taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the
world in a moment of time.
|
|
6 |
And the devil said
unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that
is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.
|
|
7 |
If thou therefore
wilt worship me, all shall be thine. |
|
8 |
And Jesus answered
and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan:
for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt
thou serve.
|
|
9 |
And he brought him
to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If
thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence:
|
|
10 |
For it is written,
He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee:
|
|
11 |
And in their hands
they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a
stone.
|
|
12 |
And Jesus answering
said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
|
|
13 |
And when the devil
had ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a season.
|
|
14 |
And Jesus returned
in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him
through all the region round about.
|
|
15 |
And he taught in
their synagogues, being glorified of all. |
|
16 |
And he came to
Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into
the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.
|
|
17 |
And there was
delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened
the book, he found the place where it was written,
|
|
18 |
The Spirit of the
Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the
poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to
the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them
that are bruised,
|
|
19 |
To preach the
acceptable year of the Lord. |
|
20 |
And he closed the
book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of
all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
|
|
21 |
And he began to say
unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled
in your ears.
|
|
22 |
And all bare him
witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his
mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph's son?
|
|
23 |
And he said unto
them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb,
Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also
here in thy country.
|
|
24 |
And he said,
Verily I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in
his own country.
|
|
25 |
But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in
Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six
months, when great famine was throughout all the land;
|
|
26 |
But unto none of them was Elias sent, save unto
Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow.
|
|
27 |
And many lepers were in Israel in the time of
Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the
Syrian.
|
|
28 |
And all they in the
synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,
|
|
29 |
And rose up, and
thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon
their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong.
|
|
30 |
But he passing
through the midst of them went his way, |
|
31 |
And came down to
Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath days.
|
|
32 |
And they were
astonished at his doctrine: for his word was with power.
|
|
33 |
And in the synagogue
there was a man, which had a spirit of an unclean devil, and cried out with
a loud voice,
|
|
34 |
Saying, Let us
alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come
to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy One of God.
|
|
35 |
And Jesus rebuked
him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of
him. And when the devil had thrown him in the midst, he came out of
him, and hurt him not.
|
|
36 |
And they were all
amazed, and spake among themselves, 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 out into every place of the country round about.
|
|
38 |
And he arose out of
the synagogue, and entered into Simon's house. And Simon's wife's mother
was taken with a great fever; and they besought him for her.
|
|
39 |
And he stood over
her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and
ministered unto them.
|
|
40 |
Now when the sun was
setting, all they that had any sick with divers diseases brought them unto
him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them.
|
|
41 |
And devils also came
out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the Son of God. And he
rebuking them suffered them not to speak: for they knew that he was Christ.
|
|
42 |
And when it was day,
he departed and went into a desert place: and the people sought him, and
came unto him, and stayed him, that he should not depart from them.
|
|
43 |
And he said unto
them, I must preach the kingdom of God to other
cities also: for therefore am I sent.
|
|
44 |
And he preached in
the synagogues of Galilee.
