14
And Jesus came back to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and the news of him went through all the country round about.
15
And he was teaching in their Synagogues and all men gave him praise.
16
And he came to Nazareth, where he had been as a child, and he went, as his way was, into the Synagogue on the Sabbath, and got up to give a reading.
17
And the book of the prophet Isaiah was given to him and, opening the book, he came on the place where it is said,
18
The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because I am marked out by him to give good news to the poor; he has sent me to make well those who are broken-hearted; to say that the prisoners will be let go, and the blind will see, and to make the wounded free from their chains,
19
To give knowledge that the year of the Lord's good pleasure is come.
20
And shutting the book he gave it back to the servant and took his seat: and the eyes of all in the Synagogue were fixed on him.
21
Then he said to them, Today this word has come true in your hearing.
22
And they were all giving witness, with wonder, to the words of grace which came from his mouth: and they said, Is not this the son of Joseph?
23
And he said to them, Without doubt you will say to me, Let the medical man make himself well: the things which to our knowledge were done at Capernaum, do them here in your country.
24
And he said to them, Truly I say to you, No prophet is honoured in his country.
