Mark 1:29–39

HEALINGS AT CAPERNAUM

²⁹As^b soon as they left the synagogue,^c they went into Simon^d and Andrew’s^e house^f with James^g and John.^{h 30}Simon’s mother-in-law was lying in bed with a fever, and they told him about her at once. ³¹So he went to her, took her by the hand, and raised her up.ⁱ The fever^j left her,^B and she began to serve^k them.^l

³²When^m evening came, after the sun had set, they brought to him all those who were sickⁿ and demon-possessed.^{o 33}The whole town was assembled at the door, ³⁴and he healed^p many who were sick with various diseases^q and drove out^r many demons.^s And he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him.^t

PREACHING IN GALILEE

³⁵Very^u early in the morning, while it was still dark, he got up, went out, and made his way to a deserted place;^v and there he was praying.^{w 36}Simon^x and his companions searched for him, ³⁷and when they found him they said, “Everyone is looking for you.”

³⁸And he said to them, “Let’s go on to the neighboring villages so that I may preach^y there too. This is why I have come.”

A MAN CLEANSED

³⁹He went into all of Galilee,^z preaching in their synagogues^aa and driving out demons.
