Jesus Accused of Casting Out Demons by Beelzebub

14

And he was casting forth a demon, and it was dumb, and it came to pass, the demon having gone forth, the dumb man spake, and the multitudes wondered,

15

and certain of them said, `By Beelzeboul, ruler of the demons, he doth cast forth the demons;'

16

and others, tempting, a sign out of heaven from him were asking.

17

And he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, `Every kingdom having been divided against itself is desolated; and house against house doth fall;

18

and if also the Adversary against himself was divided, how shall his kingdom be made to stand? for ye say, by Beelzeboul is my casting forth the demons.

19

`But if I by Beelzeboul cast forth the demons--your sons, by whom do they cast forth? because of this your judges they shall be;

20

but if by the finger of God I cast forth the demons, then come unawares upon you did the reign of God.

21

`When the strong man armed may keep his hall, in peace are his goods;

22

but when the stronger than he, having come upon him , may overcome him, his whole-armour he doth take away in which he had trusted, and his spoils he distributeth;

23

he who is not with me is against me, and he who is not gathering with me doth scatter.
