Mark 3:22-30 Then some scribes who had come down from Jerusalem started saying, “He has Beelzebub”, and “It is by the ruler of the demons that he casts out demons”.

WPNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² Then some scribes who had come down from Jerusalem started saying, “He has Beelzebub”, and “It is by the ruler of the demons that he casts out demons”. ²³ So summoning them He started saying to them in parables: “How can Satan cast out Satan? ²⁴ If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. ²⁵ And if a household is divided against itself, that household cannot stand. ²⁶ And if Satan has risen up against himself and become divided, he cannot stand, but is finished. ²⁷ No one can plunder the strong man’s goods, invading his house, unless he first binds the strong man—then he may plunder the house. ²⁸ “Assuredly I say to you: all the sins of the sons of men can be forgiven, including whatever blasphemies they may utter; ²⁹ but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation” ³⁰ —because they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit”.
