11:15	But some of them said, “It is by Beelzebub, the leader of demons, that he casts out demons.”
11:16	And others, testing him, required a sign from heaven of him.
11:17	But when he perceived their thoughts, sa han til dem: «Hvert rike som er splittet mot seg selv, skal bli øde, and house will fall upon house.
11:18	Så da, if Satan is also divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that it is by Beelzebub that I cast out demons.
11:19	But if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, ved hvem driver deres egne sønner dem ut? Derfor, de skal være dine dommere.
11:20	Dessuten, if it is by the finger of God that I cast out demons, then certainly the kingdom of God has overtaken you.
11:21	When a strong armed man guards his entrance, the things that he possesses are at peace.
11:22	But if a stronger one, overwhelming him, has defeated him, he will take away all his weapons, in which he trusted, and he will distribute his spoils.
11:23	Den som ikke er med meg, er mot meg. Og den som ikke samles med meg, sprer seg.
11:24	When an unclean spirit has departed from a man, he walks through waterless places, søker hvile. And not finding any, he says: 'Jeg skal tilbake til huset mitt, from which I departed.’
11:25	And when he has arrived, he finds it swept clean and decorated.
11:26	Then he goes, and he takes in seven other spirits with him, more wicked than himself, and they enter and live there. Og så, the end of that man is made worse the beginning.”
