Luke 4
1 And Iesus full of the holy Ghost returned from Iordan, and was led by that Spirit into the wildernes,
Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
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.
where he was tempted by the devil for forty days. He ate nothing in those days, and afterward, when they had ended, he was hungry.
3 Then the deuil saide vnto him, If thou be the Sonne of God, commaund this stone that it be made bread.
Then the devil said to him, “If yoʋ are the Son of God, command this stone to 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.
But Jesus answered him, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by 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.
So the devil brought him up to a high mountain and 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.
Then the devil said to him, “To yoʋ I will give all this authority and glory, for it has been delivered to me, and I can give it to whomever I wish.
7 If thou therefore wilt worship mee, they shalbe all thine.
If yoʋ, then, will worship me, it will all be yoʋrs.”
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.
Jesus answered him, “Get behind me, Satan! It is written, ‘Yoʋ shall worship the Lord yoʋr God, and him only shall yoʋ 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,
Then the devil brought him to Jerusalem, set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, “If yoʋ are the Son of God, throw yoʋrself down from here,
10 For it is written, That hee will giue his Angels charge ouer thee to keepe thee:
for it is written, ‘He will command his angels concerning yoʋ, to guard yoʋ,’
11 And with their handes they shall lift thee vp, least at any time thou shouldest dash thy foote against a stone.
and, ‘In their hands they will lift yoʋ up, so that yoʋ do not strike yoʋr foot against a stone.’”
12 And Iesus answered, and said vnto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
Jesus answered him, “It is said, ‘Yoʋ shall not put the Lord yoʋr God to the test.’”
13 And when the deuil had ended all the tentation, he departed from him for a litle season.
And when the devil had finished every temptation, he left him until an opportune time.
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.
Then Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news about him spread throughout the entire surrounding region.
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.
When he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, he went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, as was his custom, 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,
The scroll of Isaiah the prophet was handed to him, so he unrolled the scroll and found the place where it is 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 has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set the oppressed free,
19 And that I should preache the acceptable yeere of the Lord.
and to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.”
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.
Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fixed upon 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, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.”
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?
They were all speaking well of him and were amazed at the gracious words coming out of his mouth. They said, “Is this not Joseph's son?”
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.
Then Jesus said to them, “Doubtless you will quote to me this proverb: ‘Physician, heal yoʋrself.’ Do here in yoʋr hometown what we have heard that yoʋ did in Capernaum.”
24 And he saide, Verely I say vnto you, No Prophet is accepted in his owne countrey.
He also said, “Truly I say to you, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.
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:
But in truth I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the sky was shut for three years and six months and a severe famine came over all the land,
26 But vnto none of them was Elias sent, saue into Sarepta, a citie of Sidon, vnto a certaine widowe.
yet Elijah was sent to none of them except a widow in Zarephath in the region 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.
There were also many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian.”
28 Then all that were in the Synagogue, when they heard it, were filled with wrath,
When they heard this, all the people in the synagogue were filled with rage.
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.
They rose up, drove him out of the town, and brought him to the brow of the hill on which their town was built, to throw him down from the cliff.
30 But he passed through the middes of them, and went his way,
But Jesus passed through the crowd and went away.
31 And came downe into Capernaum a citie of Galile, and there taught them on the Sabbath dayes.
Then he went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and on the Sabbath he began teaching the people.
32 And they were astonied at his doctrine: for his worde was with authoritie.
They were astonished at his teaching, because his message was spoken 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,
Now in the synagogue there was a man who had an unclean demonic spirit, and he cried out with a loud 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.
“Leave us alone! What do yoʋ have to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have yoʋ come to destroy us? I know who yoʋ are—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.
But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent and come out of him!” Then the demon threw the man down before them all and came out of him, having done him no harm.
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?
Amazement came over all the people, and they said to one another, “What kind of message is this? For 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 news about him went out to every place in the surrounding region.
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.
Then Jesus arose, left the synagogue, and entered Simon's house. Now Simon's mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever, and they asked Jesus to help her.
39 Then he stoode ouer her, and rebuked the feuer, and it left her, and immediatly she arose, and ministred vnto them.
So he stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her. At once she rose and began to serve 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.
When the sun was setting, all those who had any who were sick with various diseases brought them to Jesus, and he laid his hands on each one of them and 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.
Demons also came out of many, crying out, “Yoʋ are the Christ, the Son of God.” But he rebuked them and would not allow 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.
When daybreak came, Jesus departed and went to a desolate place. The crowds were seeking him, and they came to him and tried to keep him from leaving them.
43 But he sayd vnto them, Surely I must also preach the kingdome of God to other cities: for therefore am I sent.
But Jesus said to them, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well, for that is why I was sent.”
44 And hee preached in the Synagogues of Galile.
So he continued preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
