CHAP. IIII. / 1 The temptation and fasting of Christ: 13 He ouercommeth the deuill: 14 Beginneth to preach: 16 The people of Nazareth admire his gratious words: 33 he cureth one posessed of a deuil, 3

1And Iesus being full of the holy Ghost, returned from Iordane, and was led by the spirit into the wildernesse,Select Luke 4:1

2Being fourtie dayes tempted of the deuil, and in those dayes he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungred.Select Luke 4:2

3And the deuil saide vnto him, If thou be the Sonne of God, command this stone that it be made bread.Select Luke 4:3

4And Iesus answered him, saying, It is written, that man shall not liue by bread alone, but by euery word of God.Select Luke 4:4

5And the deuil taking him vp into an high mountaine, shewed vnto him all the kingdomes of the world in a moment of time.Select Luke 4:5

6And the deuil said vnto him, All this power will I giue thee, and the glory of them; for that is deliuered vnto me, & to whomsoeuer I will, I giue it.Select Luke 4:6

7If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shalbe thine.Select Luke 4:7

8And Iesus answered and said vnto him, Get thee behinde me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him onely shalt thou serue.Select Luke 4:8

9And hee brought him to Hierusalem, and set him on a pinacle of the Temple, and said vnto him, If thou be the Sonne of God, cast thy selfe downe from hence.Select Luke 4:9

10For it is written, He shall giue his Angels charge ouer thee, to keepe thee.Select Luke 4:10

11And in their handes they shall beare thee vp, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.Select Luke 4:11

12And Iesus answering, said vnto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.Select Luke 4:12

13And when the deuil had ended all the temptation, hee departed from him for a season.Select Luke 4:13

14And Iesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee, and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about.Select Luke 4:14

15And hee taught in their Synagogues, being glorified of all.Select Luke 4:15

16And hee came to Nazareth, where he had bene brought vp, and as his custome was, he went into the Synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood vp for to reade.Select Luke 4:16

17And there was deliuered vnto him the booke of the Prophet Esaias, and when he had opened the Booke, he found the place where it was written,Select Luke 4:17

18The Spirit of the Lord is vpon mee, because hee hath anointed mee, to preach the Gospel to the poore, he hath sent mee to heale the broken hearted, to preach deliuerance to the captiues, and recouering of sight to the blinde, to set at libertie them that are bruised,Select Luke 4:18

19To preach the acceptable yeere of the Lord.Select Luke 4:19

20And he closed the booke, and hee gaue it againe to the minister, and sate downe: and the eyes of all them that were in the Synagogue were fastened on him.Select Luke 4:20

21And hee began to say vnto them, This day is this Scripture fulfilled in your eares.Select Luke 4:21

22And all bare him witnesse, and wondered at the gracious wordes, which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Iosephs sonne?Select Luke 4:22

23And hee said vnto them, Yee will surely say vnto me this prouerbe, Physition, heale thy selfe: Whatsoeuer wee haue heard done in Capernaum, doe also here in thy countrey.Select Luke 4:23

24And hee said, Uerely I say vnto you, no Prophet is accepted in his owne countrey.Select Luke 4:24

25But I tell you of a trueth, many widowes were in Israel in the dayes of Elias, when the heauen was shut vp three yeres and sixe moneths: when great famine was throughout all the land:Select Luke 4:25

26But vnto none of them was Elias sent, saue vnto Sarepta a citie of Sidon, vnto a woman that was a widow.Select Luke 4:26

27And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Elizeus the Prophet: and none of them was cleansed, sauing Naaman the Syrian.Select Luke 4:27

28And all they in the Synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,Select Luke 4:28

29And rose vp, and thrust him out of the citie, & led him vnto the brow of the hill (whereon their city was built) that they might cast him downe headlong.Select Luke 4:29

30But he passing thorow the mids of them, went his way:Select Luke 4:30

31And came downe to Capernaum, a citie of Galile, and taught them on the Sabbath dayes.Select Luke 4:31

32And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his worde was with power.Select Luke 4:32

33And in the Synagogue there was a man which had a spirit of an vncleane deuill, and cryed out with a loud voice,Select Luke 4:33

34Saying, Let vs alone, what haue wee to doe with thee, thou Iesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy vs? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.Select Luke 4:34

35And Iesus rebuked him, saying, Holde thy peace, and come out of him. And when the deuill had throwen him in the middes, hee came out of him, and hurt him not.Select Luke 4:35

36And they were all amazed, and spake among themselues, saying, What a word is this? for with authoritie and power hee commaundeth the vncleane spirits, and they come out.Select Luke 4:36

37And the fame of him went out into euery place of the countrey round about.Select Luke 4:37

38And he arose out of the Synagogue, and entred into Simons house: and Simons wiues mother was taken with a great feuer, and they besought him for her.Select Luke 4:38

39And he stood ouer her, and rebuked the feuer, & it left her. And immediatly she arose, & ministred vnto them.Select Luke 4:39

40Now when the Sunne was setting, all they that had any sicke with diuers diseases, brought them vnto him: and hee laid his handes on euery one of them, and healed them.Select Luke 4:40

41And deuils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the Sonne of God. And hee rebuking them, suffered them not to speake: for they knewe that hee was Christ.Select Luke 4:41

42And when it was day, he departed, and went into a desert place: and the people sought him, and came vnto him, and stayed him, that he should not depart from them.Select Luke 4:42

43And hee said vnto them, I must preach the kingdome of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent.Select Luke 4:43

44And hee preached in the Synagogues of Galile.Select Luke 4:44
