Then he saith, I will return to my mansion, whence I came; and on his arrival, he findeth it unoccupied, swept, and furnished. Then goeth he, and taketh with himself 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. So shall it also be with this wicked generation.

But others, tempting him, sought of him a sign from heaven. But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste; and a house against a house, falleth. And if Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom be established? because ye say, that I cast out devils by Beelzebub. read more.
But if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges. But if with the finger of God I cast out devils, then, verily the kingdom of God is come unto you. When a strong man, in complete armour, guards his palace, his goods are in peace. But when a stronger person than he coming, vanquisheth him, he takes away his suit of armour in which he confided, and distributes the spoils. He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me, scattereth abroad.

Then the multitudes thronging around him, he began to say, This is a wicked generation: it seeketh a sign, and no sign shall be given it, but the sign of Jonah the prophet. For as Jonas was a sign to the Ninevites, so shall the Son of man also be to this generation.

But no man lighting a lamp putteth it in a concealed place, or under a bushel, but on a stand, that they who are coming in, may see the light. The lamp of the body is the eye: when therefore thine eye is clear, thy whole body will be luminous, but if it be vitiated, thy whole body will be darkened. Let it be thy aim then, that the light which is in thee do not become darkness. If then thy whole body be illuminated, not having any dark part, it will be wholly luminous, as a lamp by its brightness diffuseth light.
