< 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 Spirit, turned back from the Jordan, and was brought in the Spirit to 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.
forty days being tempted by the Devil, and he did not eat anything in those days, and they having been ended, 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 Son thou art of God, speak to this stone 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 answered him, saying, 'It hath been written, that, not on bread only shall man live, but on every saying 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 having brought him up to an high mountain, shewed to 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, 'To thee I will give all this authority, and their glory, because to me it hath been delivered, and to whomsoever I will, I do give it;
7 If thou therefore wilt worship mee, they shalbe all thine.
thou, then, if thou mayest bow before me — all shall be thine.'
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 answering him said, 'Get thee behind me, Adversary, for it hath been written, Thou shalt bow before the Lord thy God, and Him only thou shalt 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 brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, 'If the Son thou art of God, cast thyself down hence,
10 For it is written, That hee will giue his Angels charge ouer thee to keepe thee:
for it hath been written — To His messengers He will give charge concerning thee, to guard over thee,
11 And with their handes they shall lift thee vp, least at any time thou shouldest dash thy foote against a stone.
and — On hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou mayest dash against a stone thy foot.'
12 And Iesus answered, and said vnto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
And Jesus answering said to him — 'It hath 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 having ended all temptation, the Devil departed from him till a convenient 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 turned back in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and a fame went forth through all the region round about concerning him,
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 to Nazareth, where he hath been brought up, and he went in, according to his custom, on the sabbath-day, to the synagogue, 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 there was given over to him a roll of Isaiah the prophet, and having unfolded the roll, he found the place where it hath been 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 did anoint me; To proclaim good news to the poor, Sent me to heal the broken of heart, To proclaim to captives deliverance, And to blind receiving of sight, To send away the bruised with deliverance,
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 folded the roll, having given [it] back to the officer, he sat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue were gazing on him.
21 Then he began to say vnto them, This day is the Scripture fulfilled in your eares.
And he began to say unto them — 'To-day hath this writing 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 all were bearing testimony to him, and were wondering at the gracious words that are coming forth out of his mouth, and they said, '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 unto them, 'Certainly ye will say to me this simile, Physician, heal thyself; as great things as we heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country;'
24 And he saide, Verely I say vnto you, No Prophet is accepted in his owne countrey.
and he said, 'Verily I say to you — No prophet is accepted 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 of a truth I say to you, Many widows were in the days of Elijah, in Israel, when the heaven was shut for three years and six months, when great famine came on all the land,
26 But vnto none of them was Elias sent, saue into Sarepta, a citie of Sidon, vnto a certaine widowe.
and unto none of them was Elijah sent, but — to Sarepta of Sidon, unto a woman, a widow;
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 many lepers were in the time of Elisha the prophet, in Israel, and none of them was cleansed, but — Naaman the Syrian.'
28 Then all that were in the Synagogue, when they heard it, were filled with wrath,
And all in the synagogue were filled with wrath, hearing these things,
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 having risen, they put him forth without the city, and brought him unto the brow of the hill on which their city had been built — to cast him down headlong,
30 But he passed through the middes of them, and went his way,
and he, having gone 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 to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on the sabbaths,
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 was a man, having a spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out 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, 'Away, what — to us and to thee, Jesus, O Nazarene? thou didst come to destroy us; I have known 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.
And Jesus did rebuke him, saying, 'Be silenced, and come forth out of him;' and the demon having cast him into the midst, came forth from him, having hurt him nought;
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 amazement came upon all, and they were speaking together, with one another, saying, 'What [is] this word, that with authority and power he doth command the unclean spirits, and they come forth?'
37 And ye fame of him spred abroad throughout all the places of the countrey round about.
and there was going forth a fame concerning him to every place of the region round about.
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.
And having risen out of the synagogue, he entered into the house of Simon, and the mother-in-law of Simon was pressed with a great fever, and they did ask him about her,
39 Then he stoode ouer her, and rebuked the feuer, and it left her, and immediatly she arose, and ministred vnto them.
and having stood over her, he rebuked the fever, and it left her, and presently, having risen, she was ministering to 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 at the setting of the sun, all, as many as had any ailing with manifold sicknesses, brought them unto him, and he on each one of them [his] hands having put, did heal 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 demons also were coming forth from many, crying out and saying — 'Thou art the Christ, the Son of God;' and rebuking, he did not suffer them to speak, because they knew him to be 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 day having come, having gone forth, he went on to a desert place, and the multitudes were seeking him, and they came unto him, and were staying him — not to go on 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 unto them — 'Also to the other cities it behoveth me to proclaim good news of the reign of God, because for this I have been sent;'
44 And hee preached in the Synagogues of Galile.
and he was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
