Luke 4:31-37

Jesus Heals a Man with an Unclean Demon

31 ¹And he ²went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. And ³he was teaching them ⁴on the Sabbath,

32 and ⁵they were astonished at his teaching, ⁶for his word possessed authority.

33 And ⁷in the synagogue there was a man who had the spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice,

34 “Ha! ^{[a] 8}What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? ⁹I know who you are— ¹⁰the Holy One of God. ”

35 But Jesus ¹¹rebuked 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.

36 And ¹²they were all amazed and said to one another, “What is this word? ¹³For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out! ”

37 And ¹⁴reports about him went out into every place in the surrounding region.
