³⁵ Early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left [the house], and went out to a secluded place, and was praying there. ³⁶ Simon [Peter] and his companions searched [everywhere, looking anxiously] for Him, ³⁷ and they found Him and said, “Everybody is looking for You!” ³⁸ He replied, “Let us go on to the neighboring towns, so I may preach there also; that is why I came [from the Father].” ³⁹ So He went throughout Galilee, preaching [the gospel] in their synagogues and casting out demons.
