Luke 4:24-34

24 And he said , Verily I say unto you *, No prophet is accepted in his own country.

25 But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up * three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;

26 But unto none of them was Elias sent , save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow.

27 And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed , saving Naaman the Syrian.

28 And all they in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,

29 And rose up , and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon * their city was built , that they might cast him down headlong .

30 But he passing through the midst of them went his way ,

31 And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them * on the sabbath days.

32 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his word was with power.

33 And in the synagogue there was a man, which had a spirit of an unclean devil, and cried out with a loud voice,

34 Saying , Let us alone; what have we to do with thee *, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art ; the Holy One of God.
