Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy One of God.”^* ²⁵But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet and come out of him!”^* ²⁶And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him. ²⁷They were all amazed, and they kept on asking one another, “What is this? A new teaching—with authority! He^m commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.”^* ²⁸At once his fame began to spread throughout the surrounding region of Galilee.
