Matthew 4:22-24
1599 Geneva Bible
22 And they without tarrying, leaving the ship and their father, followed him.
23 So [a]Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in [b]their [c]Synagogues, and preaching the Gospel of the [d]kingdom, and healing [e]every sickness, and every [f]disease among the people.
24 And his fame spread abroad through all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people, that were taken with divers diseases, and [g]torments, and them that were possessed with devils, and those which were [h]lunatic, and those that had the [i]palsy: and he healed them.
