Luke 4:22-30

New American Standard Bible

²² And all the people were ^[a]speaking well of Him, and admiring the ^[b]gracious words which were coming from His ^[c]lips; and yet they were saying, “^(A)Is this not Joseph’s son?” ²³ And He said to them, “No doubt you will ^[d]quote this proverb to Me: ‘Physician, heal yourself! All the miracles that we heard were done ^(B)in Capernaum, do here in ^(C)your hometown as well.’” ²⁴ But He said, “Truly I say to you, ^(D)no prophet is welcome in his hometown. ²⁵ But I say to you in truth, there were many widows in Israel ^(E)in the days of Elijah, when the sky was shut up for three years and six months, when a ^[e]severe famine came over all the land; ²⁶ and yet Elijah was sent to none of them, but only to ^[f](F)Zarephath, in the land of ^(G)Sidon, to a woman who was a widow. ²⁷ And there were many with leprosy in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet; and none of them was ^[g]cleansed, but only ^(H)Naaman the Syrian.” ²⁸ And all the people in the synagogue were filled with rage as they heard these things; ²⁹ and they got up and ^(I)drove Him out of the city, and brought Him to the ^[h]crest of the hill on which their city had been built, so that they could throw Him down from the cliff. ³⁰ But He ^(J)passed through their midst and went on His way.
