Mark 1:21–34

Jesus Heals a Man with an Unclean Spirit

^21jAnd they went into Capernaum, and immediately ^kon the Sabbath ^lhe entered the synagogue and was teaching. ²²And ^mthey were astonished at his teaching, ^mfor he taught them as one who had authority, and not as the scribes. ²³And immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit. And he cried out, ²⁴ⁿ“What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? ^oI know who you are—^pthe Holy One of God.” ²⁵But Jesus ^qrebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” ²⁶And the unclean spirit, ^rconvulsing him and ^scrying out with a loud voice, came out of him. ²⁷And they were all ^tamazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? ^uA new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.” ²⁸And at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee.

Jesus Heals Many

^29vAnd immediately he^{7 w}left the synagogue and entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. ³⁰Now ^xSimon’s mother-in-law lay ill with a fever, and immediately they told him about her. ³¹And he came and ^ytook her by the hand and lifted her up, and the fever left her, and she began to serve them.

³²That evening at sundown they brought to him all who were sick or ^zoppressed by demons. ³³And the whole city was gathered together at the door. ^34aAnd he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. And ^bhe would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him.
