1 ²⁹ On leaving the synagogue they went straight to the house of Simon and Andrew; and James and John went with them. 1 ³⁰ Simon's mother-in-law was ill in bed with fever. 1 ³¹ They told him about her at once. He came forward, took her by the hand, and helped her to her feet. The fever left her and she waited upon them.

1 ³² That evening after sunset they brought to him all who were ill or possessed by devils; 1 ³³ and the whole town was there, gathered at the door. 1 ³⁴ He healed many who suffered from various diseases, and drove out many devils. He would not let the devils speak, because they knew who he was.
