* And he was (5713 ) casting out (5723 ) a devil , and it was (5713 ) dumb . And it came to pass (5633 ), when the devil was gone out (5631 ), the dumb spake (5656 ); and the people wondered (5656 ). * But some of them said (5627 ), He casteth out (5719 ) devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils . * And others , tempting (5723 ) him , sought (5707 ) of him a sign from heaven . * But he , knowing (5761 ) their thoughts , said (5627 ) unto them , Every kingdom divided (5685 ) against itself is brought to desolation (5743 ); and a house divided against a house falleth (5719 ). * If Satan also be divided (5681 ) against himself , how shall his kingdom stand (5701 )? because ye say (5719 ) that I cast out (5721 ) devils through Beelzebub . * And if I by Beelzebub cast out (5719 ) devils , by whom do your sons cast them out (5719 )? therefore shall they be (5704 ) your judges . * But if I with the finger of God cast out (5719 ) devils , no doubt the kingdom of God is come (5656 ) upon you . * When a strong man armed (5772 ) keepeth (5725 ) his palace , his goods (5723 ) are (5748 ) in peace : * But when a stronger than he shall come upon him (5631 ), and overcome (5661 ) him , he taketh (5719 ) from him all his armour wherein he trusted (5714 ), and divideth (5719 ) his spoils . * He that is (5752 ) not with me is (5748 ) against me : and he that gathereth (5723 ) not with me scattereth (5719 ). * When the unclean spirit is gone (5632 ) out of a man , he walketh (5736 ) through dry places , seeking (5723 ) rest ; and finding (5723 ) none , he saith (5719 ), I will return (5692 ) unto my house whence I came out (5627 ). * And when he cometh (5631 ), he findeth (5719 ) it swept (5772 ) and garnished (5772 ). * Then goeth he (5736 ), and taketh (5719 ) to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself ; and they enter in (5631 ), and dwell (5719 ) there : and the last state of that man is (5736 ) worse than the first . * And it came to pass (5633 ), as he spake (5721 ) these things , a certain woman of the company lifted up (5660 ) her voice , and said (5627 ) unto him , Blessed is the womb that bare (5660 ) thee , and the paps which thou hast sucked (5656 ). * But he said (5627 ), Yea rather , blessed are they that hear (5723 ) the word of God , and keep (5723 ) it . * And when the people were gathered thick together (5746 ), he began (5662 ) to say (5721 ), This is (5748 ) an evil generation : they seek (5719 ) a sign ; and there shall no sign be given (5701 ) it , but the sign of Jonas the prophet . * For as Jonas was (5633 ) a sign unto the Ninevites , so shall also the Son of man be (5704 ) to this generation . * The queen of the south shall rise up (5701 ) in the judgment with the men of this generation , and condemn (5692 ) them : for she came (5627 ) from the utmost parts of the earth to hear (5658 ) the wisdom of Solomon ; and , behold (5628 ), a greater than Solomon is here . * The men of Nineve shall rise up (5698 ) in the judgment with this generation , and shall condemn (5692 ) it : for they repented (5656 ) at the preaching of Jonas ; and , behold (5628 ), a greater than Jonas is here . * No man , when he hath lighted (5660 ) a candle , putteth (5719 ) it in a secret place , neither under a bushel , but on a candlestick , that they which come in (5740 ) may see (5725 ) the light . * The light of the body is (5748 ) the eye : therefore when thine eye is (5753 ) single , thy whole body also is (5748 ) full of light ; but when thine eye is (5753 ) evil , thy body also is full of darkness . * Take heed (5720 ) therefore that the light which is in thee be (5748 ) not darkness . * If thy whole body therefore be full of light , having (5723 ) no part dark , the whole shall be (5704 ) full of light , as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light (5725 ).
