An Unclean Spirit Returns

43 When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he walks through dry places seeking rest, and finds none. 44 Then he said, I will return into my house from where I came out. And when he has come, he finds it empty, swept, and decorated. 45 Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and live there. And the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so it also shall be to this evil generation.
