Luke 4:24-30

English Standard Version

²⁴ And he said, “Truly, I say to you, ^(A)no prophet is acceptable in his hometown. ²⁵ But in truth, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when ^(B)the heavens were shut up three years and six months, and a great famine came over all the land, ²⁶ and Elijah was sent to none of them ^(C)but only to Zarephath, in the land of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow. ²⁷ And ^(D)there were many lepers^[a] in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, and none of them was cleansed, ^(E)but only Naaman the Syrian.” ²⁸ When they heard these things, all in the synagogue were filled with wrath. ²⁹ And they rose up and ^(F)drove him out of the town and brought him to the brow of the hill on which their town was built, so that they could throw him down the cliff. ³⁰ But ^(G)passing through their midst, he went away.
