Luke 4:27-35 English Standard Version (ESV)

27. And there were many lepersin Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, and none of them was cleansed, but only Naaman the Syrian.”

28. When they heard these things, all in the synagogue were filled with wrath.

29. And they rose up and drove him out of the town and brought him to the brow of the hill on which their town was built, so that they could throw him down the cliff.

30. But passing through their midst, he went away.

31. And he went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. And he was teaching them on the Sabbath,

32. and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word possessed authority.

33. And in the synagogue there was a man who had the spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice,

34. “Ha! What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God.”

35. But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent and come out of him!” And when the demon had thrown him down in their midst, he came out of him, having done him no harm.
