Luke 11:24-36

24WhenG3752 the uncleanG169 spiritG4151 has goneG1831 out of the manG444, he goesG1831 through dry placesG5117 seekingG2212 restG372; and not findingG2147 [any] he saysG3004, I will returnG5290 to my houseG3624 whence I cameG1831 out.

25And having comeG2064, he findsG2147 it swept and adornedG2885.

26Then he goesG4198 and takesG3880 sevenG2033 otherG2087 spiritsG4151 worse than himself, and enteringG1525 in, they dwellG2730 there; and the lastG2078 condition of that manG444 becomesG1096 worse than the firstG4413.

27And it cameG1096 to passG1096 as he spake these thingsG3778, a certainG5100 womanG1135, liftingG1869 up her voiceG5456 out of the crowdG3793, saidG3004 to him, Blessed is the wombG2836 that has borneG941 thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.

28But he saidG3004, Yea ratherG3304, blessed are they who hearG191 the wordG3056 of 1GodG2316 and keepG5442 [it].

29But as the crowdsG3793 thronged together, he beganG757 to sayG3004, This generationG1074 isG1510 a wickedG4190 generationG1074: it seeksG2212 a signG4592, and a signG4592 shall not beG1510 givenG1325 to it but the signG4592 of Jonas.

30For as Jonas wasG1510 a signG4592 to the NinevitesG3536, thusG3779 shall alsoG2532 the SonG5207 of manG444 beG1510 to this generationG1074.

31A queenG938 of the southG3558 shall riseG1453 up in the judgmentG2920 with the menG435 of this generationG1074, and shall condemnG2632 them: for she cameG2064 from the endsG4009 of the earthG1093 to hearG191 the wisdomG4678 of SolomonG4672; and beholdG2400, moreG4183 than SolomonG4672 is hereG5602.

32MenG435 of Nineveh shall standG450 up in the judgmentG2920 with this generationG1074, and shall condemnG2632 it: for they repentedG3340 at the preachingG2782 of Jonas; and beholdG2400, moreG4183 than Jonas is hereG5602.

33But no oneG3762 having lit a lampG3088 sets it in secret, nor under the corn-measure, but on the lamp-stand, that they who enterG1531 in may seeG991 the lightG5338.

34The lampG3088 of the bodyG4983 isG1510 thine eyeG3788: whenG3752 thine eyeG3788 isG1510 simple, thy wholeG3650 bodyG4983 alsoG2532 isG1510 lightG5460; but whenG3752 it isG1510 wickedG4190, thy bodyG4983 alsoG2532 isG1510 darkG4652.

35See thereforeG3767 that the lightG5457 which isG1510 in thee beG1510 not darknessG4655.

36If thereforeG3767 thy wholeG3650 bodyG4983 [isG1510] lightG5461, not having any partG3313 darkG4652, it shall beG1510 all lightG5461 as whenG3752 the lampG3088 lightsG5461 thee with its brightness.
