Luke 4:24-29

24And He saidG3004, “TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, 1noG3762 prophetG4396 is welcomeG1184 in his hometownG3968.

25But I sayG3004 to you in truthG225, there were manyG4183 widowsG5503 in IsraelG2474 2in the daysG2250 of ElijahG2243, whenG3753 the skyG3772 was shutG2808 up for threeG5140 yearsG2094 and sixG1803 monthsG3376, whenG5613 a greatG3173 famineG3042 cameG1096 overG1909 allG3956 the landG1093;

26and yet ElijahG2243 was sentG3992 to noneG3762 of them, but 3onlyG1487G3361 to 4ZarephathG4558, in the land of 5SidonG4606, to a womanG1135 who was a widowG5503.

27And there were manyG4183 lepersG3015 in IsraelG2474 in the timeG1909 of ElishaG1666 the prophetG4396; and noneG3762 of them was cleansedG2511, but 6onlyG1487G3361 NaamanG3483 the SyrianG4948.”

28And allG3956 the people in the synagogueG4864 were filledG4092 with rageG2372 as they heardG191 theseG3778 thingsG3778;

29and they gotG450 up and 7droveG1544 Him out of the cityG4172, and ledG71 Him to the browG3790 of the hillG3735 on whichG3739 their cityG4172 had been builtG3618, in orderG5620 to throwG2630 Him downG2630 the cliffG2630.
