Luke 4
Living Bible
4 1-2 Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan River, being urged by the Spirit out into the barren wastelands of Judea, where Satan tempted him for forty days. He ate nothing all that time and was very hungry.
3 Satan said, “If you are God’s Son, tell this stone to become a loaf of bread.”
4 But Jesus replied, “It is written in the Scriptures, ‘Other things in life are much more important than bread!’”[a]
5 Then Satan took him up and revealed to him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time; 6-7 and the devil told him, “I will give you all these splendid kingdoms and their glory—for they are mine to give to anyone I wish—if you will only get down on your knees and worship me.”
8 Jesus replied, “We must worship God, and him alone. So it is written in the Scriptures.”
9-11 Then Satan took him to Jerusalem to a high roof of the Temple and said, “If you are the Son of God, jump off! For the Scriptures say that God will send his angels to guard you and to keep you from crashing to the pavement below!”
12 Jesus replied, “The Scriptures also say, ‘Do not put the Lord your God to a foolish test.’”
13 When the devil had ended all the temptations, he left Jesus for a while and went away.
14 Then Jesus returned to Galilee, full of the Holy Spirit’s power. Soon he became well known throughout all that region 15 for his sermons in the synagogues; everyone praised him.
16 When he came to the village of Nazareth, his boyhood home, he went as usual to the synagogue on Saturday, and stood up to read the Scriptures. 17 The book of Isaiah the prophet was handed to him, and he opened it to the place where it says:
18-19 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me; he has appointed me to preach Good News to the poor; he has sent me to heal the brokenhearted and to announce that captives shall be released and the blind shall see, that the downtrodden shall be freed from their oppressors, and that God is ready to give blessings to all who come to him.”[b]
20 He closed the book and handed it back to the attendant and sat down, while everyone in the synagogue gazed at him intently. 21 Then he added, “These Scriptures came true today!”
22 All who were there spoke well of him and were amazed by the beautiful words that fell from his lips. “How can this be?” they asked. “Isn’t this Joseph’s son?”
23 Then he said, “Probably you will quote me that proverb, ‘Physician, heal yourself’—meaning, ‘Why don’t you do miracles here in your hometown like those you did in Capernaum?’ 24 But I solemnly declare to you that no prophet is accepted in his own hometown! 25-26 For example, remember how Elijah the prophet used a miracle to help the widow of Zarephath—a foreigner from the land of Sidon. There were many Jewish widows needing help in those days of famine, for there had been no rain for three and a half years, and hunger stalked the land; yet Elijah was not sent to them. 27 Or think of the prophet Elisha, who healed Naaman, a Syrian, rather than the many Jewish lepers needing help.”
28 These remarks stung them to fury; 29 and jumping up, they mobbed him and took him to the edge of the hill on which the city was built, to push him over the cliff. 30 But he walked away through the crowd and left them.
31 Then he returned to Capernaum, a city in Galilee, and preached there in the synagogue every Saturday. 32 Here, too, the people were amazed at the things he said. For he spoke as one who knew the truth, instead of merely quoting the opinions of others as his authority.
33 Once as he was teaching in the synagogue, a man possessed by a demon began shouting at Jesus, 34 “Go away! We want nothing to do with you, Jesus from Nazareth. You have come to destroy us. I know who you are—the Holy Son of God.”
35 Jesus cut him short. “Be silent!” he told the demon. “Come out!” The demon threw the man to the floor as the crowd watched, and then left him without hurting him further.
36 Amazed, the people asked, “What is in this man’s words that even demons obey him?” 37 The story of what he had done spread like wildfire throughout the whole region.
38 After leaving the synagogue that day, he went to Simon’s home where he found Simon’s mother-in-law very sick with a high fever. “Please heal her,” everyone begged.
39 Standing at her bedside he spoke to the fever, rebuking it, and immediately her temperature returned to normal, and she got up and prepared a meal for them![c]
40 As the sun went down that evening, all the villagers who had any sick people in their homes, no matter what their diseases were, brought them to Jesus; and the touch of his hands healed every one! 41 Some were possessed by demons; and the demons came out at his command, shouting, “You are the Son of God.” But because they knew he was the Christ, he stopped them and told them to be silent.
42 Early the next morning he went out into the desert. The crowds searched everywhere for him, and when they finally found him, they begged him not to leave them but to stay at Capernaum. 43 But he replied, “I must preach the Good News of the Kingdom of God in other places too, for that is why I was sent.” 44 So he continued to travel around preaching in synagogues throughout Judea.

Tinukso si Jesus(A)
4 Bumalik mula sa Jordan si Jesus na puspos ng Banal na Espiritu. Dinala siya ng Espiritu sa ilang 2 at doon ay apatnapung araw siyang tinukso ng diyablo. Hindi siya kumain ng anuman sa mga araw na iyon kaya't nagutom siya makalipas ang mga ito. 3 Sinabi sa kanya ng diyablo, “Kung ikaw ang Anak ng Diyos, utusan mo ang mga batong ito na maging tinapay.” 4 Ngunit sinagot siya ni Jesus, “Nasusulat, ‘Hindi lamang sa tinapay nabubuhay ang tao.’ ” 5 Dinala siya ng diyablo sa mataas na lugar at sa isang saglit ay ipinakita sa kanya ang lahat ng kaharian sa sanlibutan. 6 Sinabi sa kanya ng diyablo, “Ibibigay ko sa iyo ang karapatan sa lahat ng ito at ang kaluwalhatian nila sapagkat ipinagkaloob na ito sa akin. Maibibigay ko ito kanino ko man ibigin. 7 Kaya't kung sasambahin mo ako, magiging iyo na ang lahat ng ito.” 8 Sinagot siya ni Jesus, “Nasusulat,
‘Ang Panginoon mong Diyos ang sambahin mo
at siya lamang ang iyong paglingkuran.’ ”
9 Dinala siya ng diyablo sa Jerusalem at inilagay sa tuktok ng templo at sinabi sa kanya, “Kung ikaw ang Anak ng Diyos, tumalon kang pababa mula rito; 10 sapagkat nasusulat,
‘Uutusan niya ang kanyang mga anghel na alagaan ka.
11 At aalalayan ka nila,
nang hindi tumama sa bato ang iyong paa.’ ”
12 Ngunit sumagot sa kanya si Jesus, “Sinasabi rin, ‘Huwag mong subukan ang Panginoon mong Diyos.’ ”
13 At matapos ang lahat ng pagsubok, nilayuan siya ng diyablo at naghintay ito ng ibang pagkakataon.
Ang Pasimula ng Gawain sa Galilea(B)
14 Bumalik si Jesus sa Galilea sa kapangyarihan ng Espiritu at sa buong lupain ay kumalat ang balita tungkol sa kanya. 15 Nagturo siya sa kanilang mga sinagoga taglay ang papuri ng lahat.
Ang Pagtataboy kay Jesus(C)
16 Dumating siya sa Nazareth na kanyang nilakhan. Gaya ng kanyang nakaugalian, pumasok siya sa sinagoga nang araw ng Sabbath at tumindig upang magbasa. 17 Iniabot sa kanya ang aklat ng propetang si Isaias at pagkabukas dito ay natunghayan niya ang dako kung saan nasusulat,
18 “Sumasaakin ang Espiritu ng Panginoon,
sapagkat hinirang niya ako upang ipangaral ang mabuting balita sa mga dukha.
Isinugo niya ako upang ipahayag sa mga bihag ang paglaya
at sa mga bulag na sila'y makakita
upang bigyang-laya ang mga inaapi,
19 at ipahayag ang pinapagpalang taon ng Panginoon.”
20 Inirolyo ni Jesus at isinauli ang aklat sa tagapaglingkod, at siya'y naupo. At ang mga mata ng lahat ng sinagoga ay nakatitig sa kanya. 21 Sinimulan niyang sabihin sa kanila, “Sa araw na ito ay natupad ang kasulatang inyong narinig.” 22 Pinuri siya ng lahat at namangha sila sa mapagpalang salita na sinabi niya. Sinabi nila, “Hindi ba ito ang anak ni Jose?” 23 Sinabi niya sa kanila, “Tiyak na sasabihin ninyo sa akin ang talinghagang ito, ‘Manggagamot, pagalingin mo ang iyong sarili. Gawin mo rin dito sa iyong bayang tinubuan ang mga narinig naming nangyari sa Capernaum.’ ” 24 Sinabi niya, “Tandaan ninyo ang sinasabi ko: walang propetang kinikilala sa kanyang bayang tinubuan. 25 Ngunit ang totoo, maraming balong babae sa Israel noong panahon ni Elias, nang tatlong taon at anim na buwang hindi umulan na nagsanhi ng taggutom sa buong lupain. 26 Ngunit hindi isinugo si Elias sa isa man sa kanila kundi sa isang balong babae sa Zarefta sa lupain ng Sidon. 27 Marami rin namang ketongin sa Israel noong panahon ng propetang si Eliseo ngunit walang pinagaling sa kanila maliban kay Naaman na taga-Syria.” 28 Pagkarinig dito, nagngitngit sa galit ang lahat ng nasa sinagoga. 29 Nagtindigan sila at itinaboy siya papalabas ng bayan at dinala siya sa bingit ng burol na kinatatayuan ng kanilang bayan upang ihulog siya roon. 30 Ngunit siya ay dumaan lamang sa kalagitnaan nila at umalis.
Isang Taong may Maruming Espiritu(D)
31 Bumaba siya patungong Capernaum na isang bayan ng Galilea. Doon ay nagturo siya sa kanila sa araw ng Sabbath. 32 Namangha sila sa kanyang pagtuturo sapagkat may kapangyarihan ang kanyang mga sinasabi. 33 May isang lalaki sa sinagoga na sinasaniban ng espiritu ng karumal-dumal na demonyo. Sumigaw ito nang malakas, 34 “Ah! Jesus na taga-Nazareth, ano'ng pakialam mo sa amin? Naparito ka ba upang puksain kami? Alam ko kung sino ka—ang Banal ng Diyos.” 35 Subalit sinaway siya ni Jesus na nagsabing, “Tumahimik ka at lumabas ka sa kanya.” At ang lalaki'y inilugmok ng demonyo sa harapan ng lahat at lumabas ito sa kanya na hindi sinaktan. 36 At namangha silang lahat at sinabi sa isa't isa, “Pambihirang katuruan ito! Sapagkat inuutusan niya ng may awtoridad at kapangyarihan ang maruruming espiritu at sila ay lumalabas.” 37 Kaya't kumalat ang balita tungkol sa kanya sa lahat ng dako ng lupain.
Pinagaling ni Jesus ang Maraming Tao(E)
38 Nilisan ni Jesus ang sinagoga at pumasok sa bahay ni Simon. Noon ay inaapoy sa lagnat ang biyenang babae ni Simon at nakiusap sila kay Jesus para sa kanya. 39 At tumayo si Jesus sa tabi nito, pinatigil niya ang lagnat at nawala nga ito. Kaya't pagtayo ng babae, agad itong naglingkod sa kanila. 40 Nang palubog na ang araw, dinala sa kanya ng lahat ang kani-kanilang may mga sari-saring karamdaman. At pagkapatong ng kanyang mga kamay sa bawat isa ay pinagaling sila. 41 Sa marami ay lumayas din ang mga demonyo na pasigaw na nagsasabing, “Ikaw ang Anak ng Diyos.” Ngunit sinaway niya ang mga ito at pinagbawalang magsalita sapagkat kilala nila na siya ang Cristo.
Nangaral si Jesus sa mga Sinagoga(F)
42 Kinaumagahan, nagtungo si Jesus sa ilang na pook. Hinanap siya ng mga tao. Lumapit sila sa kanya at pinipigilan siyang lumayo sa kanila. 43 Kaya't sinabi niya sa kanila, “Kailangan ko ring ipangaral sa ibang bayan ang mabuting balita tungkol sa paghahari ng Diyos sapagkat isinugo ako para rito.” 44 At siya ay nangaral sa mga sinagoga ng Judea.

Jesus Is Tested in the Wilderness(A)
4 Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit,(B) left the Jordan(C) and was led by the Spirit(D) into the wilderness, 2 where for forty days(E) he was tempted[a] by the devil.(F) He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry.
3 The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God,(G) tell this stone to become bread.”
4 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’[b]”(H)
5 The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world.(I) 6 And he said to him, “I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me,(J) and I can give it to anyone I want to. 7 If you worship me, it will all be yours.”
8 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.’[c]”(K)
9 The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. 10 For it is written:
“‘He will command his angels concerning you
to guard you carefully;
11 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’[d]”(L)
12 Jesus answered, “It is said: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’[e]”(M)
13 When the devil had finished all this tempting,(N) he left him(O) until an opportune time.
Jesus Rejected at Nazareth
14 Jesus returned to Galilee(P) in the power of the Spirit, and news about him spread through the whole countryside.(Q) 15 He was teaching in their synagogues,(R) and everyone praised him.
16 He went to Nazareth,(S) where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue,(T) as was his custom. He stood up to read,(U) 17 and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written:
18 “The Spirit of the Lord is on me,(V)
because he has anointed me
to proclaim good news(W) to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind,
to set the oppressed free,
19 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”[f](X)
20 Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down.(Y) The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him. 21 He began by saying to them, “Today this scripture is fulfilled(Z) in your hearing.”
22 All spoke well of him and were amazed at the gracious words that came from his lips. “Isn’t this Joseph’s son?” they asked.(AA)
23 Jesus said to them, “Surely you will quote this proverb to me: ‘Physician, heal yourself!’ And you will tell me, ‘Do here in your hometown(AB) what we have heard that you did in Capernaum.’”(AC)
24 “Truly I tell you,” he continued, “no prophet is accepted in his hometown.(AD) 25 I assure you that there were many widows in Israel in Elijah’s time, when the sky was shut for three and a half years and there was a severe famine throughout the land.(AE) 26 Yet Elijah was not sent to any of them, but to a widow in Zarephath in the region of Sidon.(AF) 27 And there were many in Israel with leprosy[g] in the time of Elisha the prophet, yet not one of them was cleansed—only Naaman the Syrian.”(AG)
28 All the people in the synagogue were furious when they heard this. 29 They got up, drove him out of the town,(AH) and took him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw him off the cliff. 30 But he walked right through the crowd and went on his way.(AI)
Jesus Drives Out an Impure Spirit(AJ)
31 Then he went down to Capernaum,(AK) a town in Galilee, and on the Sabbath he taught the people. 32 They were amazed at his teaching,(AL) because his words had authority.(AM)
33 In the synagogue there was a man possessed by a demon, an impure spirit. He cried out at the top of his voice, 34 “Go away! What do you want with us,(AN) Jesus of Nazareth?(AO) Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are(AP)—the Holy One of God!”(AQ)
35 “Be quiet!” Jesus said sternly.(AR) “Come out of him!” Then the demon threw the man down before them all and came out without injuring him.
36 All the people were amazed(AS) and said to each other, “What words these are! With authority(AT) and power he gives orders to impure spirits and they come out!” 37 And the news about him spread throughout the surrounding area.(AU)
Jesus Heals Many(AV)(AW)
38 Jesus left the synagogue and went to the home of Simon. Now Simon’s mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever, and they asked Jesus to help her. 39 So he bent over her and rebuked(AX) the fever, and it left her. She got up at once and began to wait on them.
40 At sunset, the people brought to Jesus all who had various kinds of sickness, and laying his hands on each one,(AY) he healed them.(AZ) 41 Moreover, demons came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!”(BA) But he rebuked(BB) them and would not allow them to speak,(BC) because they knew he was the Messiah.
42 At daybreak, Jesus went out to a solitary place. The people were looking for him and when they came to where he was, they tried to keep him from leaving them. 43 But he said, “I must proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God(BD) to the other towns also, because that is why I was sent.” 44 And he kept on preaching in the synagogues of Judea.(BE)
