* Then hee cast out a deuill which was domme : and when the deuill was gone out , the domme spake , and the people wondered . * * And others tempted him , seeking of him a signe from heauen . * * If Satan also be divided against himself , how shall his kingdom stand ? because ye say that I cast out devils (note :)By the name and power of Beelzebub .(:note ) through Beelzebub . * If I through Beelzebub cast out deuils , by whome doe your children cast them out ? Therefore shall they be your iudges . * But if I with the (note :)That is , by the power of God : so it says in {{See Exo_8:19 }}.(:note ) finger of God cast out devils , no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you . * When a strong man armed keepeth his (note :)The word properly signifies an open and empty room in front of a house , and so in translation is taken for noblemen 's houses .(:note ) palace , his goods are in peace : * But when a stronger then hee , commeth vpon him , and ouercommeth him : hee taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted , and deuideth his spoiles . * * * And when he cometh , he findeth it swept and garnished . * Then goeth hee , and taketh to him seuen other spirites worse then himselfe : and they enter in , and dwel there : so the last state of that man is worse then the first . * * But hee saide , Yea , rather blessed are they that heare the woorde of God , and keepe it . * And when the people were gathered thicke together , he began to say , This is a wicked generation : they seeke a signe , and there shall no signe be giuen them , but the signe of Ionas the Prophet . * For as Ionas was a signe to the Niniuites : so shall also the Sonne of man bee to this generation . * The Queene of the South shall rise in iudgement , with the men of this generation , and shall condemne them : for shee came from the vtmost partes of the earth to heare the wisedome of Solomon , and beholde , a greater then Solomon is here . * The men of Niniue shall rise in iudgement with this generation , and shall condemne it : for they repented at the preaching of Ionas : and beholde , a greater then Ionas is here . * * The light of the bodie is the eye : therefore when thine eye is single , then is thy whole bodie light : but if thine eye be euill , then thy bodie is darke . * Take heede therefore , that the light which is in thee , be not darkenesse . * If therefore thy whole body shall be light , hauing no part darke , then shall all be light , euen as when a candle doth light thee with the brightnesse .
