| 19 —— and they went into a house. |
| 20 And the multitude cometh together
again, so that they could not
so much as eat bread. |
| 21 And when his friends heard of
it, they went out to lay hold on him:
for they said, He is beside himself. |
| 22 Then was brought unto him one
possessed with a devil, blind and
dumb; and he healed him, insomuch
that the blind and dumb,[151] both spake
and saw. | |
| 23 And all the people were amazed[152]
and said, Is not this the son of David? | |
| 24 But when the Pharisees heard
it they said, This fellow doth not cast
out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince
of the devils. | 22 And the scribes which came
down from Jerusalem, said, He hath
Beelzebub, and by the prince of the
devils casteth he out devils. |
| 25 And Jesus knew their thoughts,
and said unto them, Every kingdom
divided against itself, is brought to
desolation; and every city or house
divided against itself, shall not stand. | 23 And he called them unto him,
and said unto them in parables, How
can Satan cast out Satan? |
| 26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he
is divided against himself; how shall
then his kingdom stand? | 24 And if a kingdom be divided
against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. |
| 25 And if a house be divided against
itself, that house cannot stand. |
| 27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out
devils, by whom do your children cast
them out? therefore they shall be your judges. | 26 And if Satan rise up against
himself, and be divided, he cannot
stand but hath an end. |
| 28 But if I cast out devils by the
Spirit of God, then the kingdom of
he will first bind the strong man; | 27 No man can enter into a strong
man's house and spoil his goods, except
he will first bind the strong man;
and then he will spoil his house. |
| 29 Or else, how can one enter into
a strong man's house, and spoil his
goods, except he first bind the strong
man? and then he will spoil his house. | 28 Verily, I say unto you, All sins
shall be forgiven unto the sons of men,
the blasphemies wherewith soever
they shall blaspheme: |
| 30 He that is not with me is against
me; and he that gathereth not with
me, scattereth abroad. | 29 But he that shall blaspheme
against the Holy Ghost hath never
forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation: |
| 31 Wherefore I say unto you, All
manner of sin and blasphemy shall be
forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy
against the Holy Ghost shall not be
forgiven unto men. | 30 Because they said, he hath an
unclean spirit. |
| 32 And whosoever speaketh a word
against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven
him: but whosoever speaketh
against the Holy Ghost, it shall not
be forgiven him, neither in this world,
neither in the world to come. | |
| 33 Either make the tree good, and
his fruit good; or else make the tree
corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the
tree is known by his fruit. | |
| 34 O generation of vipers, how can
ye, being evil, speak good things?
for out of the abundance of the heart
the mouth speaketh. | |
| 35 A good man, out of the good
treasure of the heart, bringeth forth
good things: and an evil man, out of the
evil treasure, bringeth forth evil things. | |
| 36 But I say unto you, That every
idle word that men shall speak, they
shall give account thereof in the day of
judgment. | |
| 37 For by thy words thou shalt be
justified, and by thy words thou shalt
be condemned. | |

| CH. XI. 14, 15, 17-23. | |
| 14 And he was casting out a devil,
and it was dumb. And it came to
pass when the devil was gone out,
the dumb spake; and the people wondered. | |
| 15 But some of them said, He
casteth out devils through Beelzebub,
the chief of the devils. | |
| 17 But he, knowing their thoughts,
said unto them, Every kingdom divided
against itself, is brought to desolation;
and a house divided against a
house, falleth. | |
| 18 If Satan also be divided against
himself, how shall his kingdom stand?
because ye say that I cast out devils
through Beelzebub. | |
| 19 And if I by Beelzebub cast out
devils, by whom do your sons cast
them out? therefore shall they be your
judges. | |
| 20 But if I with the finger of God
cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom
of God is come upon you. | |
| 21 When a strong man armed keepeth
his palace, his goods are in peace: | |
| 22 But when a stronger than he
shall come upon him, and overcome
him, he taketh from him all his armour,
wherein he trusted, and divideth
his spoils. | |
| 23 He that is not with me, is against
me: and he that gathereth not with
me scattereth. | |

| 38 Then certain of the scribes and
of the Pharisees answered, saying,
Master, we would see a sign from
thee. | And others tempting him, sought
of him a sign from heaven. |
| 39 But he answered and said to
them, An evil and adulterous generation
seeketh after a sign, and there
shall no sign be given[153] to it, but the
sign of the prophet Jonas. | 29 And when the people had gathered
thick together, he began to say,
This is an evil generation: they seek
a sign, and there shall no sign be
given it, but the sign of Jonas the
prophet. |
| 40 For as Jonas was three days
and three nights in the whale's belly,[154]
so shall the Son of man be three days
and three nights in the heart of the
earth. | |
| 41 The men of Nineveh shall rise
in judgment with this generation, and
shall condemn it: because they repented
at the preaching of Jonas,[155] and
behold, a greater than Jonas is here. | 30 For as Jonas was a sign unto
the Ninevites so shall also the Son of
man be to this generation. |
| 42 The queen of the south shall
rise up in the judgment with this
generation, and shall condemn it: for
she came from the uttermost parts of
the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon;[156]
and behold, a greater than
Solomon is here. | 31 The queen of the south shall rise
up in the judgment with the men of
this generation, and condemn them:
for she came from the utmost parts of
the earth, to hear the wisdom of Solomon;
and behold, a greater than
Solomon is here |
| 32 The men of Nineveh shall rise
up in the judgment with this generation,
and shall condemn it: for they
repented at the preaching of Jonas;
and behold, a greater than Jonas is
here. |
| 33 No man when he hath lighted a
candle putteth it in a secret place,
neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick,
that they which come in may
see the light. |
| 34 The light of the body is thy eye:
therefore when thine eye is single,
thy whole body also is full of light;
but when thine eye is evil, thy body
also is full of darkness. |
| 35 Take heed therefore, that the
light which is in thee be not darkness. |
| 36 If thy whole body therefore be
full of light, having no part dark, the
whole shall be full of light; as when
the bright shining of a candle doth
give thee light. |
| 43 When the unclean spirit is gone
out of a man, he walketh through dry
places, seeking rest, and findeth none. | 24 When the unclean spirit is gone
out of a man, he walketh through dry
places, seeking rest: and finding none,
he saith, I will return unto my house
whence I came out. |
| 44 Then he saith, I will return into
my house from whence I came out;
and when he is come, he findeth it
empty, swept, and garnished. | 25 And when he cometh, he findeth
it swept and garnished. |
| 45 Then goeth he, and taketh with
himself seven other spirits more
wicked than himself, and they enter
in and dwell there: and the last state
of that man is worse than the first.
Even so shall it be also unto this
wicked generation. | 26 Then goeth he, and taketh to
him seven other spirits more wicked
than himself; and they enter in, and
dwell there: and the last state of that
man is worse than the first. |
| 27 And it came to pass, as he spake
these things, a certain woman of the
company lifted up her voice, and said
unto him, Blessed is the womb that
bare thee, and the paps which thou
hast sucked. |
| 28 But he said, Yea, rather blessed
are they that hear the word of God,
and keep it. |

| 46 While he yet talked to the
people, behold, his mother and his
brethren stood without, desiring to
speak with him. | 31 There came then his brethren
and his mother, and standing without,
sent unto him, calling him. |
| 47 Then one said unto him, Behold,
thy mother and thy brethren stand
without, desiring to speak with thee. | 32 And the multitude sat about
him; and they said unto him, Behold,
thy mother and thy brethren without
seek for thee. |
| 48 But he answered and said unto
him that told him, Who is my mother?
and who are my brethren? | 33 And he answered them, saying,
Who is my mother, or my brethren?
and who are my brethren? |
| 49 And he stretched forth his hand
toward his disciples, and said, Behold
my mother and my brethren! | 34 And he looked round about on
them which sat about him, and said,
Behold, my mother and my brethren! |
| 50 For whosoever shall do the will
of my Father which is in heaven, the
same is my brother, and sister, and
mother. | 35 For whosoever shall do the will
of God, the same is my brother, and
my sister, and mother. |
