When the demon had thrown him down in their midst, he came out of him, having done him no harm. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/luke/4-36.htm"><b>36</b></a></span>Amazement came on all, and they spoke together, one with another, saying, "What is this word?

Now Simon's mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever, and they appealed to him about her. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/luke/4-39.htm"><b>39</b></a></span>He stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her. Immediately she rose up and served them.<p> <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/luke/4-40.htm"><b>40</b></a></span>When the sun was setting, all those who had any sick with various diseases brought them to him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them. <span class="reftext"><a href="//biblehub.com/luke/4-41.htm"><b>41</b></a></span>Demons also came out from many, crying out, and saying, "You are the Son of God."
