Luke:11:14-36
rsv@Luke:11:14 @ Now he was casting out a demon that was dumb; when the demon had gone out, the dumb man spoke, and the people marveled.
rsv@Luke:11:15 @ But some of them said, "He casts out demons by Be-el'zebul, the prince of demons";
rsv@Luke:11:16 @ while others, to test him, sought from him a sign from heaven.
rsv@Luke:11:17 @ But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, "Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and a divided household falls.
rsv@Luke:11:18 @ And if Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Be-el'zebul.
rsv@Luke:11:19 @ And if I cast out demons by Be-el'zebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges.
rsv@Luke:11:20 @ But if it is by the finger of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
rsv@Luke:11:21 @ When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own palace, his goods are in peace;
rsv@Luke:11:22 @ but when one stronger than he assails him and overcomes him, he takes away his armor in which he trusted, and divides his spoil.
rsv@Luke:11:23 @ He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.
rsv@Luke:11:24 @ "When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest; and finding none he says, `I will return to my house from which I came.'
rsv@Luke:11:25 @ And when he comes he finds it swept and put in order.
rsv@Luke:11:26 @ Then he goes and brings seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first."
rsv@Luke:11:27 @ As he said this, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said to him, "Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts that you sucked!"
rsv@Luke:11:28 @ But he said, "Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it!"
rsv@Luke:11:29 @ When the crowds were increasing, he began to say, "This generation is an evil generation; it seeks a sign, but no sign shall be given to it except the sign of Jonah.
rsv@Luke:11:30 @ For as Jonah became a sign to the men of Nin'eveh, so will the Son of man be to this generation.
rsv@Luke:11:31 @ The queen of the South will arise at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here.
rsv@Luke:11:32 @ The men of Nin'eveh will arise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.
rsv@Luke:11:33 @ "No one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a bushel, but on a stand, that those who enter may see the light.
rsv@Luke:11:34 @ Your eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye is sound, your whole body is full of light; but when it is not sound, your body is full of darkness.
rsv@Luke:11:35 @ Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness.
rsv@Luke:11:36 @ If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright, as when a lamp with its rays gives you light."
