New Testament

Mark 1:20-27 Amplified Bible (AMP)

20. And immediately He called out to them, and [abandoning all mutual claims] they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and went off after Him [to be His disciples, side with His party, and follow Him].

21. And they entered into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath He went into the synagogue and began to teach.

22. And they were completely astonished at His teaching, for He was teaching as One Who possessed authority, and not as the scribes.

23. Just at that time there was in their synagogue a man [who was in the power] of an unclean spirit; and now [immediately] he raised a deep and terrible cry from the depths of his throat, saying,

24. 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!

25. And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hush up (be muzzled, gagged), and come out of him!

26. And the unclean spirit, throwing the man into convulsions and screeching with a loud voice, came out of him.

27. And they were all so amazed and almost terrified that they kept questioning and demanding one of another, saying, What is this? What new (fresh) teaching! With authority He gives orders even to the unclean spirits and they obey Him!
