Jeremiah 7: 23- 28

7:23But on this matter I did instruct them, govoreći: Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you will be my people. And walk in the entire way that I have commanded you, so that it may be well with you.
7:24But they did not listen, nor did they incline their ear. Umjesto toga, they walked by their own will and in the depravity of their own wicked heart. I tako, they went backward, and not forward,
7:25from the day when their fathers went forth from the land of Egypt, čak i do danas. And I have sent all my servants, proroke, to you, throughout the day, rising at first light and sending them.
7:26But they have not listened to me, nor have they inclined their ear. Umjesto toga, they have stiffened their neck, and they have behaved worse than their fathers did.
7:27I tako, you will speak to them all these words, but they will not listen to you. And you will call to them, but they will not respond to you.
7:28And you will say to them: This is the nation that has not listened to the voice of the Lord their God, nor accepted discipline. Faith has perished and been taken away from their mouth.

Luke 11: 14- 23

11:14And he was casting out a demon, and the man was mute. But when he had cast out the demon, the mute man spoke, and so the crowds were amazed.
11:15Ali neki od njih su rekli, “To je od Belzebuba, vođa demona, da izgoni demone.”
11:16I drugi, testirajući ga, zahtijevao od njega znak s neba.
11:17Ali kada je opazio njihove misli, rekao im je: “Svako kraljevstvo koje se podijeli samo protiv sebe opustjelo će, i kuća će pasti na kuću.
11:18Pa onda, ako je i sotona podijeljen protiv sebe, kako će stajati njegovo kraljevstvo? Jer vi kažete da sam pomoću Belzebuba izgonio demone.
11:19Ali ako izgonim demone pomoću Belzebuba, po kome ih tvoji sinovi izgone? Stoga, oni će vam biti sudije.
11:20Štaviše, ako sam prstom Božijim izgonio demone, onda vas je sigurno zavladalo kraljevstvo Božije.
11:21Kad mu jak naoružani čovjek čuva ulaz, stvari koje poseduje su u miru.
11:22Ali ako je jači, nadjačavajući ga, ga je pobedio, oduzet će mu svo oružje, u koje je verovao, i on će podijeliti svoj plijen.
11:23Ko god nije sa mnom, je protiv mene. I ko se ne okuplja sa mnom, raspršuje se.
