21and his friends having heard, went forth to lay hold on him, for they said that he was beside himself,
22and the scribes who [are] from Jerusalem having come down, said -- `He hath Beelzeboul,` and -- `By the ruler of the demons he doth cast out the demons.`
23And, having called them near, in similes he said to them, `How is the Adversary able to cast out the Adversary?
24and if a kingdom against itself be divided, that kingdom cannot be made to stand;
25and if a house against itself be divided, that house cannot be made to stand;
26and if the Adversary did rise against himself, and hath been divided, he cannot be made to stand, but hath an end.
27`No one is able the vessels of the strong man -- having entered into his house -- to spoil, if first he may not bind the strong man, and then his house he will spoil.
