Luke 11:16-26
-
16 And others, tempting him, sought of him a sign from heaven.
-
17 But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth.
-
18 If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub.
-
19 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them out? therefore shall they be your judges.
-
20 But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.
-
21 When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace:
-
22 But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.
-
23 He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.
-
24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out.
-
25 And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished.
-
26 Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.
