Matthew 12:25-32

25 1And 2knowingG3609 their thoughtsG1761 Jesus saidG3004 to them, “3AnyG3956 kingdomG932 dividedG3307 againstG2596 itselfG1438 is laidG2049 wasteG2049; and 4anyG3956 cityG4172 orG2228 houseG3614 dividedG3307 againstG2596 itselfG1438 will not standG2476. 26IfG1487 5SatanG4567 castsG1544 out SatanG4567, he 6is dividedG3307 againstG1909 himselfG1438; howG4459 thenG3767 will his kingdomG932 standG2476? 27IfG1487 I 7by 8BeelzebulG954 castG1544 out demonsG1140, 9by whomG5101 do your sonsG5207 castG1544 them out? For thisG1223 G3778 reasonG1223 G3778 they will be your judgesG2923. 28But 10ifG1487 I castG1544 out demonsG1140 by the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316, thenG686 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 has comeG5348 upon you. 29OrG2228 howG4459 canG1410 anyoneG5100 enterG1525 the strongG2478 man’sG2478 houseG3614 and carryG726 offG726 his propertyG4632, unlessG1437 G3361 he firstG4413 bindsG1210 the strongG2478 man? And thenG5119 he will plunderG1283 his houseG3614. 30 11He who is not with Me is againstG2596 Me; and he who does not gatherG4863 with Me scattersG4650.

31“12ThereforeG1223 G3778 I sayG3004 to you, anyG3956 sinG266 and blasphemyG988 shall be forgivenG863 peopleG444, but blasphemyG988 against the SpiritG4151 shall not be forgivenG863. 32 13WhoeverG3739 G1437 14speaksG3004 a wordG3056 againstG2596 the SonG5207 of ManG444, it shall be forgivenG863 him; but whoeverG3739 G302 15speaksG3004 againstG2596 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, it shall not be forgivenG863 him, eitherG3777 in 16thisG3778 ageG165 orG3777 in the age to comeG3195.
