< Luke 4 >

1 And Iesus full of the holy Ghost returned from Iordan, and was led by that Spirit into the wildernes,
And Jesus, full of the Holy Ghost, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, tempted by the devil forty days.
2 And was there fourtie dayes tempted of the deuil, and in those dayes he did eate nothing: but when they were ended, he afterward was hungry.
And He ate nothing during those days; and they having been completed, He afterward hungered.
3 Then the deuil saide vnto him, If thou be the Sonne of God, commaund this stone that it be made bread.
And the devil said to Him, If thou art the Son of God, speak to this stone, in order that it may become bread.
4 But Iesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not liue by bread only, but by euery word of God.
And Jesus responded to him, saying; It has been written, That man shall not live upon bread alone, but upon every word of God.
5 Then the deuill tooke him vp into an high mountaine, and shewed him all the kingdomes of the world, in the twinkeling of an eye.
And the devil leading Him up, he showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6 And the deuill saide vnto him, All this power will I giue thee, and the glory of those kingdomes: for that is deliuered to mee: and to whomsoeuer I will, I giue it.
And the devil said to Him, I will give all the authority and glories of these to thee: because it has been given unto me: and I give it to whom I may wish;
7 If thou therefore wilt worship mee, they shalbe all thine.
then if thou mayest worship before me all shall belong to thee.
8 But Iesus answered him, and saide, Hence from mee, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him alone thou shalt serue.
And Jesus responding said to him; It has been written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God and Him only shalt thou serve.
9 Then hee brought him to Hierusalem, and set him on a pinacle of the Temple, and said vnto him, If thou be the Sonne of God, cast thy selfe downe from hence,
And he led Him into Jerusalem, and placed Him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, If thou art the Son of God cast thyself down from thence;
10 For it is written, That hee will giue his Angels charge ouer thee to keepe thee:
for it has been written, That He will give His angels charge concerning thee, in order to guard thee,
11 And with their handes they shall lift thee vp, least at any time thou shouldest dash thy foote against a stone.
and they will bear thee upon their hands, lest at any time thou mayest dash thy foot against a stone.
12 And Iesus answered, and said vnto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
And Jesus responding said to him; That it has been said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
13 And when the deuil had ended all the tentation, he departed from him for a litle season.
And the devil having perfected every temptation, departed from Him for a season.
14 And Iesus returned by the power of the spirite into Galile: and there went a fame of him throughout all the region round about.
And Jesus returned in the power of the spirit into Galilee. And the fame concerning Him went throughout the whole country.
15 For he taught in their Synagogues, and was honoured of all men.
And He was teaching in their synagogues, being glorified by all.
16 And hee came to Nazareth where hee had bene brought vp, and (as his custome was) went into the Synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stoode vp to reade.
And He came into Nazareth, where He was brought up: and according to the custom to Him, He came into the synagogue on the Sabbath-day, and stood up to read.
17 And there was deliuered vnto him the booke of the Prophet Esaias: and when hee had opened the booke, hee founde the place, where it was written,
And the Book of Isaiah the prophet was given to Him; and having opened the book, He found the place where it was written,
18 The Spirit of the Lord is vpon mee, because he hath anoynted me, that I should preach the Gospel to the poore: he hath sent mee, that I should heale the broken hearted, that I should preach deliuerance to the captiues, and recouering of sight to the blinde, that I should set at libertie them that are bruised:
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor: hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim deliverance to the captives, and sight to the blind, and to set at liberty them that are bruised,
19 And that I should preache the acceptable yeere of the Lord.
to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.
20 And hee closed the booke, and gaue it againe to the minister, and sate downe: and the eyes of all that were in the Synagogue were fastened on him.
And having closed the book, and giving it back to the officer, He sat down: and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on Him.
21 Then he began to say vnto them, This day is the Scripture fulfilled in your eares.
And He began to say to them; This day has this Scripture been fulfilled in your ears.
22 And all bare him witnes, and wondered at the gracious wordes, which proceeded out of his mouth, and said, Is not this Iosephs sonne?
And they all continued to witness to Him, and wonder at the words of grace proceeding out from His mouth: and say, Is not this the son of Joseph?
23 Then he said vnto them, Ye will surely say vnto mee this prouerbe, Physician, heale thy selfe: whatsoeuer we haue heard done in Capernaum, doe it here likewise in thine owne countrey.
And He said to them, You truly speak to me this parable, Physician, heal thyself: so many things as we heard having been done in Capernaum, do also here in thy own country.
24 And he saide, Verely I say vnto you, No Prophet is accepted in his owne countrey.
And He said, Truly I say unto you, that no prophet is acceptable in his own country.
25 But I tell you of a trueth, many widowes were in Israel in the dayes of Elias, when heauen was shut three yeres and sixe moneths, when great famine was throughout all the land:
And in truth I say unto you, There were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah. When the heaven was shut up three years and six months, how the famine was great over all the land;
26 But vnto none of them was Elias sent, saue into Sarepta, a citie of Sidon, vnto a certaine widowe.
and Elijah was sent to none of them, except to a widow woman in Sarepta of Sidon.
27 Also many lepers were in Israel, in the time of Eliseus the Prophet: yet none of them was made cleane, sauing Naaman the Syrian.
And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha; and none of them were cleansed except Naaman the Syrian.
28 Then all that were in the Synagogue, when they heard it, were filled with wrath,
And all in the synagogue, hearing these things, were filled with wrath.
29 And rose vp, and thrust him out of the citie, and led him vnto the edge of the hil, whereon their citie was built, to cast him downe headlong.
And rising up, they cast Him out of the city, and were leading Him to the brink of the mountain on which their city was built, to hurl Him down;
30 But he passed through the middes of them, and went his way,
and He having passed through the midst of them went away.
31 And came downe into Capernaum a citie of Galile, and there taught them on the Sabbath dayes.
And He came down into Capernaum, a city of Galilee, And He was teaching them on the Sabbath.
32 And they were astonied at his doctrine: for his worde was with authoritie.
And they were astonished at His teaching; because His word was with authority.
33 And in the Synagogue there was a man which had a spirit of an vncleane deuill, which cryed with a loude voyce,
And in the synagogue there was a man having a spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried with a great voice,
34 Saying, Oh, what haue we to doe with thee, thou Iesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy vs? I know who thou art, euen the holy one of God.
saying, Let me alone; what is there to us and to thee, O Jesus the Nazarene? Hast thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
35 And Iesus rebuked him, saying, Holde thy peace, and come out of him. Then the deuill throwing him in the middes of them, came out of him, and hurt him nothing at all.
Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be silent and come out from him; and the demon having thrown him down in the midst came out from him, not having injured him.
36 So feare came on them all, and they spake among themselues, saying, What thing is this: for with authoritie and power he commaundeth the foule spirits, and they come out?
And fear came upon them all, and they were talking together to one another, saying, What word is this? because with authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out.
37 And ye fame of him spred abroad throughout all the places of the countrey round about.
And the report concerning Him was going out into every place in the surrounding country,
38 And he rose vp, and came out of the Synagogue, and entred into Simons house. And Simons wiues mother was taken with a great feuer, and they required him for her.
Having arisen up from the synagogue, He came into the house of Simon. And the mother-in-law of Simon was afflicted with a great fever; and they asked Him concerning her.
39 Then he stoode ouer her, and rebuked the feuer, and it left her, and immediatly she arose, and ministred vnto them.
And He, standing over her, rebuked the fever; and dismissed it; and immediately, having stood up, she continued to minister unto them.
40 Now at the sunne setting, all they that had sicke folkes of diuers diseases, brought them vnto him, and he layd his hands on euery one of them, and healed them.
And the sun having gone down, all so many as had people afflicted with various diseases continued to lead them to Him; and He having put His hands on each one of them, healed them.
41 And deuils also came out of many, crying, and saying, Thou art that Christ that Sonne of God: but he rebuked them, and suffered them not to say that they knewe him to be that Christ.
And the demons continued to go out from many, crying, and saying, Thou art the Christ, the Son of God. And rebuking them, He did not suffer them to speak, because they knew that He was the Christ.
42 And when it was day, he departed, and went foorth into a desart place, and the people sought him, and came to him, and kept him that he should not depart from them.
And it being day, having come out, He departed into a desert place: and the multitudes continued to seek Him; and they came unto Him, and they constrained Him not to depart from them.
43 But he sayd vnto them, Surely I must also preach the kingdome of God to other cities: for therefore am I sent.
And He said to them, That, it behooveth me to preach the gospel of the kingdom of God to many other cities: because unto this I have been sent.
44 And hee preached in the Synagogues of Galile.
And He was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
