Luke 11:14-32

14One day Jesus wasG1510 driving outG1544 a demonG1140 thatG846 wasG1510 muteG2974. And whenG1161G1096 theG3588 demonG1140 was goneG1831, theG3588 man who had been muteG2974 spokeG2980. TheG3588 crowdsG3793 were amazedG2296, 15butG1161 someG5100 ofG1537 themG846 saidG2036, “It is byG1722 BeelzebulG954,1 theG3588 princeG758 of theG3588 demonsG1140, that He drives outG1544 demonsG1140.” 16AndG1161 othersG2087 testedG3985 HimG846 by demandingG2212 a signG4592 fromG1537 heavenG3772.

KnowingG1492 theirG846 thoughtsG1270, Jesus saidG2036 to themG846, “EveryG3956 kingdomG932 dividedG1266 againstG1909 itselfG1438 will be laid wasteG2049, andG2532 a houseG3624 divided againstG1909 a houseG3624 will fallG4098. 18IfG1487 SatanG4567 is dividedG1266 againstG1909 himselfG1438, howG4459 can hisG846 kingdomG932 standG2476? After allG3754, you say thatG3004 IG1473 drive outG1544 demonsG1140 byG1722 BeelzebulG954. 19AndG1161 ifG1487 IG1473 drive outG1544 demonsG1140 byG1722 BeelzebulG954, byG1722 whomG5101 do yourG4771 sonsG5207 drive them outG1544? So thenG1223G3778, theyG846 will beG1510 yourG4771 judgesG2923. 20ButG1161 ifG1487 IG1473 drive outG1544 demonsG1140 byG1722 the fingerG1147 of GodG2316, thenG686 theG3588 kingdomG932 of GodG2316 has comeG5348 uponG1909 youG4771.

21WhenG3752 a strongG2478 man, fully armedG2528, guardsG5442 hisG1438 houseG833, hisG846 possessionsG5225 areG1510 secureG1722G1515. 22ButG1161 whenG1875 someone strongerG2478G846 attacksG1904 and overpowersG3528 himG846, he takes awayG142 the armorG3833 inG1909 whichG3739 the man trustedG3982, andG2532 then he divides upG1239 hisG846 plunderG4661.

23He whoG3588 isG1510 notG3361 withG3326 MeG1473 isG1510 againstG2596 MeG1473, andG2532 he whoG3588 does not gatherG3361G4863 withG3326 MeG1473 scattersG4650.

24WhenG3752 an uncleanG169 spiritG4151 comes outG1831 ofG575 a manG444, it passesG1330 throughG1223 aridG504 placesG5117 seekingG2212 restG372 andG2532 does not findG3361G2147 it. ThenG5119 it saysG3004, ‘I will returnG5290 toG1519 the houseG3624 I leftG3606G1831.’ 25On its returnG2064, it findsG2147 the house swept cleanG4563 andG2532 put in orderG2885. 26ThenG5119 it goesG4198 andG2532 bringsG3880 sevenG2033 otherG2087 spiritsG4151 more wickedG4190 than itselfG1438, andG2532 they go inG1525 and dwellG2730 thereG1563. AndG2532 theG3588 finalG2078 plight of thatG1565 manG444 isG1096 worseG5501 than theG3588 firstG4413.”

27AsG1161G1096G1722 Jesus was sayingG3004 these thingsG3778, aG5100 womanG1135 inG1537 theG3588 crowdG3793 raisedG1869 her voiceG5456 and saidG2036, “BlessedG3107 is theG3588 wombG2836 that boreG941 YouG4771, andG2532 blessed are the breastsG3149 thatG3739 nursed YouG2337!”

28ButG1161 HeG846 repliedG2036, “BlessedG3107 ratherG3304 are those whoG3588 hearG191 theG3588 wordG3056 of GodG2316 andG2532 obey itG5442.”

29AsG1161 theG3588 crowdsG3793 were increasingG1865, Jesus saidG756G3004, “ThisG3778 isG1510 a wickedG4190 generationG1074. It demandsG2212 a signG4592, butG2532 noneG3756 will be givenG1325 itG846 exceptG1487G3361 theG3588 signG4592 of JonahG2495. 30ForG1063 asG2531 JonahG2495 wasG1096 a signG4592 to theG3588 NinevitesG3536, soG3779G2532 theG3588 SonG5207 of ManG444 will beG1510 a sign to thisG3778 generationG1074.

31The QueenG938 of the SouthG3558 will riseG1453 atG1722 theG3588 judgmentG2920 withG3326 theG3588 menG435 of thisG3778 generationG1074 andG2532 condemnG2632 themG846; forG3754 she cameG2064 fromG1537 theG3588 endsG4009 of theG3588 earthG1093 to hearG191 theG3588 wisdomG4678 of SolomonG4672, andG2532 nowG2400 One greaterG4119 than SolomonG4672 is hereG5602. 32The menG435 of NinevehG3536 will standG450 atG1722 theG3588 judgmentG2920 withG3326 thisG3778 generationG1074 andG2532 condemnG2632 itG846; forG3754 they repentedG3340 atG1519 theG3588 preachingG2782 of JonahG2495, andG2532 nowG2400 One greaterG4119 than JonahG2495 is hereG5602.
