28 News about Jesus quickly spread all over Galilee.
29 As soon as Jesus left the meeting place with James and John, they went home with Simon and Andrew.
30 When they got there, Jesus was told that Simon's mother-in-law was sick in bed with fever.
31 Jesus went to her. He took hold of her hand and helped her up. The fever left her, and she served them a meal.
32 That evening after sunset, all who were sick or had demons in them were brought to Jesus.
33 In fact, the whole town gathered around the door of the house.
34 Jesus healed all kinds of terrible diseases and forced out a lot of demons. But the demons knew who he was, and he did not let them speak.
