*
Then he went into a house ,
but again such a multitude assembled that they could not get their food .
*
When his relatives heard of it ,
they came to take possession of him ,
for they said , "
He is out of his mind ."
*
The Scribes also who had come down from Jerusalem ,
said , "
He is Beelzebub ,"
and , "
He casts out demons by the power of the Prince of the demons ."
*
So when he had called them to him he spoke to them in parables . "
How ,"
said he , "
can Satan cast out Satan ?
*
If a kingdom be divided against itself ,
that kingdom cannot stand ;
*
if a household be divided against itself ,
that household cannot stand ;
*
and if Satan has revolted against himself ,
and is divided ,
he cannot stand .
Nay ,
he meets his end !
* "
Indeed ,
no one can enter the strong mans house and carry off his property without first binding the strong man ;
then he can plunder his house .
*
In solemn truth I tell you that the sons of men shall be forgiven all their sins and all the blasphemies they may utter ,
*
but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit is never forgiven .
Nay ,
he is in the grasp of an eternal sin ."
*
Because they kept saying , "
He has an unclean spirit ."
