²¹ And He began to say to them, “Today this Scripture is ^(A)fulfilled in your hearing.” ²² So all bore witness to Him, and ^(B)marveled at the gracious words which proceeded out of His mouth. And they said, ^(C)“Is this not Joseph’s son?”

²³ He said to them, “You will surely say this proverb to Me, ‘Physician, heal yourself! Whatever we have heard done in ^(D)Capernaum,^[a] do also here in ^(E)Your country.’ ” ²⁴ Then He said, “Assuredly, I say to you, no ^(F)prophet is accepted in his own country. ²⁵ But I tell you truly, ^(G)many widows were in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, and there was a great famine throughout all the land; ²⁶ but to none of them was Elijah sent except to ^[b]Zarephath, in the region of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow. ^27 (H)And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian.”

²⁸ So all those in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were ^(I)filled with ^[c]wrath, ^29 (J)and rose up and thrust Him out of the city; and they led Him to the brow of the hill on which their city was built, that they might throw Him down over the cliff. ³⁰ Then ^(K)passing through the midst of them, He went His way.
