RYLT(i)
15 And Jesus having known, withdrew from there, and there followed him great multitudes, and he healed them all,
16 and did charge them that they might not make him manifest,
17 that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
18 'Lo, My servant, whom I did choose, My beloved, in whom My soul did delight, I will put My Spirit upon him, and judgment to the nations he shall declare,
19 he shall not strive nor cry, nor shall any hear in the broad places his voice,
20 a bruised reed he shall not break, and smoking flax he shall not quench, till he may put forth judgment to victory,
21 and in his name shall nations hope.'
22 Then was brought to him a demoniac, blind and dumb, and he healed him, so that the blind and dumb both spoke and saw.
23 And all the multitudes were amazed, and said, 'Is this the Son of David?'
24 But the Pharisees having heard, said, 'This one does not cast out demons, except by Beelzeboul, ruler of the demons.'
25 And Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said to them, 'Every kingdom having been divided against itself is desolated, and no city or house having been divided against itself, does stand,
26 and if the Adversary does cast out the Adversary, against himself he was divided, how then does his kingdom stand?
27 'And if I, by Beelzeboul, do cast out the demons, your sons -- by whom do they cast out? Because of this they -- they shall be your judges.
28 'But if I, by the Spirit of God, do cast out the demons, then come already unto you did the reign of God.
29 'Or how is one able to go into the house of the strong man, and to plunder his goods, if first he may not bind the strong man? And then his house he will plunder.
30 'He who is not with me is against me, and he who is not gathering with me, does scatter.
31 Because of this I say to you, all sin and evil speaking shall be forgiven to men, but the evil speaking of the Spirit shall not be forgiven to men.
32 And whoever may speak a word against the Son of Man it shall be forgiven to him, but whoever may speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is coming.
33 'Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad, for from the fruit is the tree known.
34 'Brood of vipers! How are you able to speak good things -- being evil? For out of the abundance of the heart does the mouth speak.
35 The good man out of the good treasure of the heart does put forth the good things, and the evil man out of the evil treasure does put forth evil things.
36 'And I say to you, that every idle word that men may speak, they shall give for it a reckoning in a day of judgment;
37 for from your words you shall be declared righteous, and from your words you shall be declared unrighteous.'
