* Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil , blind , and dumb : and he healed him , insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw . * And all the people were amazed , and said , Is not this the son of David ? * But when the Pharisees heard it , they said , This fellow doth not cast out devils , but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils . * 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 : * And if Satan cast out Satan , he is divided against himself ; how shall then his kingdom stand ? * And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils , by whom do your children cast them out ? therefore they shall be your judges . * But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God , then the kingdom of God is come unto you . * 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 . * He that is not with me is against me ; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad . * 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 . * 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 . * 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 . * O generation of vipers , how can ye , being evil , speak good things ? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh . * 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 . * But I say unto you , That every idle word that men shall speak , they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment . * For by thy words thou shalt be justified , and by thy words thou shalt be condemned .
