14Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood,he also himself in the same way partook of the same,that through death he might bring to nothing himwho had the power of death,that is, the devil,15and might deliver all of themwho through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.16For most certainly,he doesn’t give help to angels,but he gives help to the offspring of Abraham.17Therefore he was obligated in all things to be made like his brothers,that he might become a mercifuland faithful high priest in things pertaining to God,to make atonement for the sins of the people.18For in that he himself has suffered being tempted,he is able to help those who are tempted.

1Give thanks to the Lord! Call on his name!Make his doings known among the peoples.2Sing to him, sing praises to him!Tell of all his marvelous works.

3Glory in his holy name.Let the heart of those who seek the Lord rejoice.4Seek the Lord and his strength.Seek his face forever more.

6you offspring of Abraham, his servant,you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.7He is the Lord, our God.His judgments are in all the earth.

8He has remembered his covenant forever,the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,9the covenant which he made with Abraham,his oath to Isaac,

29Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue,they came into the house of Simon and Andrew,with James and John.30Now Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever,and immediately they told him about her.31He came and took her by the hand and raised her up.The fever left her immediately, and she served them.

32At evening, when the sun had set,they brought to him all who were sickand those who were possessed by demons.33All the city was gathered together at the door.34He healed many who were sick with various diseasesand cast out many demons.He didn’t allow the demons to speak,because they knew him.

35Early in the morning,while it was still dark,he rose up and went out,and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.36Simon and those who were with him searched for him.37They found him and told him,“Everyone is looking for you.”

38He said to them, “Let’s go elsewhere into the next towns,that I may preach there also,because I came out for this reason.”39He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee,preaching and casting out demons.
