Luke 11:14-23

141And He was casting out a mute demon; when the demon had gone out, the man who was previously unable to speak talked, and the crowds were amazed. 15But some of them said, “He casts out the demons 2by 3Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons.” 16Others, 4to test Him, 5were demanding of Him a 6sign from heaven. 177But He knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste; and a house divided against 8itself falls. 18And if 9Satan also has been divided against himself, how will his kingdom 10stand? For you claim that I cast out the demons by 11Beelzebul. 19Yet if by 12Beelzebul I cast out the demons, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore, they will be your judges. 20But if I cast out the demons by 13the 14finger of God, then 15the kingdom of God has come upon you. 21When 16a strong man, fully armed, guards his own house, his possessions are 17secure. 22But when someone stronger than he attacks him and overpowers him, that man takes away his armor on which he had relied and distributes his plunder. 2318The one who is not with Me is against Me; and the one who does not gather with Me scatters.
