Luke 11:24-36

24TheG3588 uncleanG169 spiritG4151 whenG3752 heG2532 is goneG1831 outG1831 ofG4151 theG3588 manG444, passeth throughG1223 waterlessG504 placesG5117, seekingG2212 restG372; andG2532 findingG2147 noneG3361, heG2532 saith, IG1473 willG444 turnG5290 backG5290 unto myG2212 houseG3624 whence IG1473 cameG1831 outG1831.

25AndG2532 whenG2532 heG2532 is comeG2064, heG2532 findeth itG2147 sweptG4563 andG2532 garnished.

26ThenG2532 goeth heG2532, andG2532 taketh toG2532 himG2532 sevenG2033 otherG2087 spiritsG4151 moreG4190 evilG4190 thanG2532 himselfG1438; andG2532 theyG2532 enterG1525 inG2730 andG2532 dwellG2730 thereG1563: andG2532 theG3588 lastG2078 state ofG4151 thatG1565 manG444 becometh worseG5501 thanG2532 theG3588 firstG4413.

27AndG2532 itG846 cameG1096 toG3004 passG1096, asG1722 heG2532 saidG3004 theseG3778 thingsG3778, a certainG5100 womanG1135 outG1537 ofG1537 theG3588 multitudeG3793 liftedG1869 upG1869 herG846 voiceG5456, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, BlessedG3107 is theG3588 wombG2836 thatG3739 bare thee, andG2532 theG3588 breastsG3149 whichG3739 thou didst suck.

28ButG1161 heG2532 saidG3004, Yea ratherG3304, blessedG3107 are theyG846 thatG3004 hearG191 theG3588 wordG3056 ofG3056 GodG2316, andG2532 keepG5442 itG846.

29AndG2532 whenG2532 theG3588 multitudesG3793 wereG1510 gatheringG3793 togetherG2532 unto himG846, heG2532 beganG757 toG3004 sayG3004, ThisG3778 generationG1074 isG1510 anG1510 evilG4190 generationG1074: itG846 seeketh afterG1161 aG1510 signG4592; andG2532 thereG1510 shallG3778 noG3756 signG4592 beG1510 givenG1325 toG3004 itG846 butG1161 theG3588 signG4592 ofG3004 JonahG2495.

30ForG1063 evenG2532 asG2531 JonahG2495 becameG1096 a signG4592 unto theG3588 NinevitesG3536, soG2532 shallG444 alsoG2532 theG3588 SonG5207 ofG5207 manG444 beG1510 toG2532 thisG3778 generationG1074.

31TheG3588 queenG938 ofG1537 theG3588 southG3558 shallG3778 riseG1453 upG1453 inG1722 theG3588 judgmentG2920 withG3326 theG3588 menG435 ofG1537 thisG3778 generationG1074, andG2532 shallG3778 condemnG2632 themG846: forG3754 sheG846 cameG2064 fromG1537 theG3588 endsG4009 ofG1537 theG3588 earthG1093 toG2064 hearG191 theG3588 wisdomG4678 ofG1537 SolomonG4672; andG2532 beholdG2400, a greaterG4183 thanG4183 SolomonG4672 is hereG5602.

32TheG3588 menG435 ofG435 NinevehG3536 shallG3778 standG450 upG450 inG1722 theG3588 judgmentG2920 withG3326 thisG3778 generationG1074, andG2532 shallG3778 condemnG2632 itG846: forG1519 theyG846 repentedG3340 at theG3588 preachingG2782 ofG435 JonahG2495; andG2532 beholdG2400, a greaterG4183 thanG4183 JonahG2495 is hereG5602.

33NoG3762 manG3762, whenG991 heG235 hath lighted a lampG3088, putteth itG5087 inG1519 a cellarG2926, neitherG3761 underG5259 theG3588 bushel, butG235 onG1909 theG3588 stand, thatG2443 they whichG3588 enterG1531 inG1519 mayG2443 seeG991 theG3588 lightG5338.

34TheG3588 lampG3088 ofG4983 thy bodyG4983 isG1510 thine eyeG3788: whenG3752 thine eyeG3788 isG1510 single, thy wholeG3650 bodyG4983 alsoG2532 isG1510 fullG5460 ofG4983 lightG5460; butG1161 whenG3752 itG1161 isG1510 evilG4190, thy bodyG4983 alsoG2532 isG1510 fullG5460 ofG4983 darknessG4652.

35LookG4648 thereforeG3767 whether theG3588 lightG5457 thatG3767 isG1510 inG1722 thee beG1510 notG3361 darknessG4655.

36IfG1487 thereforeG3767 thy wholeG3650 bodyG4983 beG1510 fullG5460 ofG5100 lightG5461, havingG2192 noG3361 partG3313 darkG4652, itG3752 shall beG1510 whollyG3650 fullG5460 ofG5100 lightG5461, asG5613 whenG3752 theG3588 lampG3088 withG2192 itsG3752 brightG5460 shining doth give thee lightG5461.
