Mark 1:20-26 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

20. Their father Zebedee and the men who worked for him were in the boat with the brothers. When Jesus saw the brothers, he told them to come. They left their father and followed Jesus.

21. Jesus and his followers went to Capernaum. On the Sabbath day, Jesus went into the synagogue and taught the people.

22. They were amazed at his teaching. He did not teach like their teachers of the law. He taught like someone with authority.

23. While Jesus was in the synagogue, a man was there who had an evil spirit inside him. The man shouted,

24. “Jesus of Nazareth! What do you want with us? Did you come to destroy us? I know who you are—God’s Holy One!”

25. Jesus, his voice full of warning, said, “Be quiet, and come out of him!”

26. The evil spirit made the man shake. Then the spirit made a loud noise and came out of him.
