And he added, ¹  “I tell you the truth, ²  no prophet is acceptable ³  in his hometown.

(For Jesus himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.) ¹ 

And so they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his own house.”

Then ¹  Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown, and among his relatives, and in his own house.”

Jesus ¹  said to them, “No doubt you will quote to me the proverb, ‘Physician, heal yourself!’ ²  and say, ‘What we have heard that you did in Capernaum, ³  do here in your hometown too.’”
