Mark 1:21-34 ▼

21 And they went into Capernaum: and going directly into the synagogue on the sabbath, He taught the people: and they were astonished at his doctrine;

22 for He taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.

23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an impure spirit,

24 and he cried out, saying, Let us alone, what have we to do with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee, who thou art, the holy one of God.

25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be silent, and come out of him: and the impure spirit threw him into convulsions,

26 and roaring with a loud voice, came out of him.

27 And they were all amazed, so that they inquired of each other, saying, What is this, what new kind of doctrine is this? for He commands with authority even the impure spirits, and they obey Him.

28 And straitway his fame spread into all the country round about Galilee.

29 And as soon as they came out of the synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, together with James and John.

30 And Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever: and they immediately told Him of her:

31 and He came to her, and taking her by the hand raised her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she waited upon them.

32 And in the evening, when the sun set, they brought to Him all that were ill, and demoniacs:

33 and the whole city was gathered together at the door;

34 and He healed many that were ill of various diseases, and cast out many devils, and suffered not the devils to say that they knew Him.
