惟有人則曰：『彼之袪鬼、乃恃魔王白責布爾之力也。』

But some of them said,“ By Beelzebul, the prince of demons, he is driving out demons.”

But some of them said,“ Jesus is driving out demons by the power of Beelzebul, the prince of demons.”

But some of them said,“ He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of demons,”

but some of them said,“ No wonder he can cast out demons. He gets his power from Satan, the prince of demons.”

But some of them said,“ He casts out the demons by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons.”

But some of them said,“ He casts out demons by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons.”

But some of them said, By Beelzebub the prince of the demons casteth he out demons.

But some of them said,“ He drives out demons by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons!”

But some of them said, He casteth out devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils.

But some of them said,“ By the power of Beelzebul, the ruler of demons, he casts out demons.”

But some of them said,“ He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”

But the Pharisees said,“ He drives out demons by the ruler of the demons.”

The scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said,“ He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and,“ He drives out demons by the ruler of the demons.”So he summoned them and spoke to them in parables:“ How can Satan drive out Satan?If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.And if Satan opposes himself and is divided, he cannot stand but is finished.But no one can enter a strong man’s house and plunder his possessions unless he first ties up the strong man. Then he can plunder his house.“ Truly I tell you, people will be forgiven for all sins and whatever blasphemies they utter.But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin”—because they were saying,“ He has an unclean spirit.”

The Jews responded to him,“ Aren’t we right in saying that you’re a Samaritan and have a demon?”

When the Pharisees heard this, they said,“ This man drives out demons only by Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons.”Knowing their thoughts, he told them,“ Every kingdom divided against itself is headed for destruction, and no city or house divided against itself will stand.If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? For this reason they will be your judges.If I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.How can someone enter a strong man’s house and steal his possessions unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can plunder his house.Anyone who is not with me is against me, and anyone who does not gather with me scatters.

Then the Jews said,“ Now we know you have a demon. Abraham died and so did the prophets. You say,‘ If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste death.’

Many of them were saying,“ He has a demon and he’s crazy. Why do you listen to him?”

It is enough for a disciple to become like his teacher and a slave like his master. If they called the head of the house‘ Beelzebul,’ how much more the members of his household!

If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say I drive out demons by Beelzebul.And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? For this reason they will be your judges.

“ You have a demon!” the crowd responded.“ Who is trying to kill you?”
