New Testament

Mark 1:18-28 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

18. Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.

19. Going on a little farther, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.

20. Immediately He called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went away to follow Him.

21. They went into Capernaum; and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the synagogue and began to teach.

22. They were amazed at His teaching; for He was teaching them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

23. Just then there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,

24. saying, "What business do we have with each other, 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, "Be quiet, and come out of him!"

26. Throwing him into convulsions, the unclean spirit cried out with a loud voice and came out of him.

27. They were all amazed, so that they debated among themselves, saying, "What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him."

28. Immediately the news about Him spread everywhere into all the surrounding district of Galilee.
