Luke 4:15-33

15And He began 1teaching in their synagogues and was praised by all.

16And He came to 2Nazareth, where He had been brought up; and as was His custom, 3He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath, and 4stood up to read. 17And the scroll of Isaiah the prophet was handed to Him. And He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written:18“5The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He anointed Me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim release to captives, And recovery of sight to the blind, To set free those who are oppressed,196To proclaim the favorable year of the Lord.” 20And He 7rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant, and 8sat down; and the eyes of all the people in the synagogue were intently directed at Him. 21Now He began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your 9hearing.” 22And all the people were 10speaking well of Him, and admiring the 11gracious words which were coming from His 12lips; and yet they were saying, “13Is this not Joseph’s son?” 23And He said to them, “No doubt you will 14quote this proverb to Me: ‘Physician, heal yourself!

31And 28He came down to 29Capernaum, a city of Galilee; and He was teaching them on the Sabbath; 32and 30they were amazed at His teaching, because 31His 32message was delivered with authority. 33In the synagogue there was a man 33possessed by the spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice,
