Luke 4:14-21

14And 1JesusG2424 returnedG5290 to GalileeG1056 in the powerG1411 of the SpiritG4151, and 2newsG5345 aboutG4012 Him spreadG1831 throughG2596 allG3650 the surroundingG4066 regionG4066. 15And He began 3teachingG1321 in their synagoguesG4864 and was praisedG1392 by allG3956.

16And He cameG2064 to 4NazarethG3478, whereG3757 He had beenG1510 broughtG5142 upG5142; and as was His customG1486, 5He enteredG1525 the synagogueG4864 on the SabbathG4521, and 6stoodG450 upG450 to readG314. 17And the scrollG975 of IsaiahG2268 the prophetG4396 was handedG1929 to Him. And He unrolledG380 the scrollG975 and foundG2147 the placeG5117 whereG3757 it was writtenG1125:18“7The SpiritG4151 of the LordG2962 is upon Me, BecauseG3739G1752 He anointedG5548 Me to bringG2097 goodG2097 newsG2097 to the poorG4434. He has sentG649 Me to proclaimG2784 releaseG859 to captivesG164, And recoveryG309 ofG309 sightG309 to the blindG5185, To setG649 freeG1722G859 those who are oppressedG2352,198To proclaimG2784 the favorableG1184 yearG1763 of the LordG2962.” 20And He 9rolledG4428 upG4428 the scrollG975, gaveG591 it backG591 to the attendantG5257, and 10satG2523 downG2523; and the eyesG3788 of allG3956 the people in the synagogueG4864 were intentlyG816 directedG816 at Him. 21NowG1161 He beganG757 to sayG3004 to them, “TodayG4594 thisG3778 ScriptureG1124 has been fulfilledG4137 in your 11hearingG3775.”
