Luke 4:23-29

Goodspeed(i) 23 He said to them, "No doubt you will quote this proverb to me: 'Doctor, cure yourself! Do the things here in your own country that we hear you did at Capernaum.' 24 I tell you," said he, "no prophet is welcome in his own country. 25 But, I tell you, there were plenty of widows in Israel in Elijah's time, when the sky was closed for three years and a half, and there was a great famine all over the land, 26 and Elijah was not sent to one of them, but to a widow at Zarephath in Sidon. 27 And there were plenty of lepers in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, and none of them was cured, but Naaman the Syrian." 28 And when the people in the synagogue heard this, they were all very angry, 29 and they got up and drove him out of the town and took him to the brow of the hill on which their town was built, intending to throw him down from it.
