Mark 1:21-28

Driving Out an Unclean Spirit
21 They(A) went into Capernaum,(B) and right away he entered the synagogue(C) on the Sabbath(D) and began to teach.(E) 22 They were astonished(F) at his teaching(G) because he was teaching them as one who had authority, and not like the scribes.
23 Just then a man with an unclean(H) spirit(I) was in their synagogue.(J) He cried out, 24 “What do you have to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth?(K) Have you come to destroy(L) us? I know who you are—the Holy(M) One of God!” (N)
25 Jesus rebuked(O) him saying, “Be silent,(P) and come out of him!” 26 And the unclean spirit threw him into convulsions,(Q) shouted with a loud voice, and came out of him.
27 They were all amazed,(R) and so they began to ask(S) each other, “What is this? A new teaching(T) with authority![a](U) He commands even the unclean(V) spirits,(W) and they obey him.” 28 At once the news about him spread throughout the entire vicinity of Galilee.(X)

The Man with an Unclean Spirit
21 They went to Capernaum, and when the Sabbath came, he entered the synagogue and taught.(A) 22 They were astounded at his teaching, for he taught them as one having authority and not as the scribes.(B) 23 Just then there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, 24 and he cried out, “What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy One of God.”(C) 25 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet and come out of him!”(D) 26 And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him. 27 They were all amazed, and they kept on asking one another, “What is this? A new teaching—with authority! He[a] commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.”(E) 28 At once his fame began to spread throughout the surrounding region of Galilee.
