Luke 4:14-21

New Matthew Bible

¹⁴ Jesus returned by the power of the Spirit into Galilee, and there went a renown of him throughout all the region round about. ¹⁵ And he taught in their synagogues, and was commended by all.

¹⁶ And he went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and as his custom was, went into the synagogue on the Sabbath days, and stood up to read. ¹⁷ And there was delivered to him the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when he had opened the scroll, he found the place where it was written: ¹⁸ The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me. To preach the gospel to the poor he has sent me, and to heal the broken-hearted; to preach deliverance to the captive, and sight to the blind, and freely to set at liberty those who are bruised, ¹⁹ and to preach the favoured year of the Lord.

²⁰ And he rolled up the scroll and returned it to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him. ²¹ And he began and said to them, This day this scripture is fulfilled in your ears.
