Mark 3:20-30

20 Then he went ¹home, and the crowd gathered again, ²so that they could not even eat.

21 ³And when ⁴his family heard it, they went out to seize him, for they were saying, "He ⁵is out of his mind."

Blasphemy Against the Holy Spirit

22 And ⁶the scribes who came down from Jerusalem were saying, ⁷"He is possessed by Beelzebul," and "by the prince of demons he casts out the demons."

23 ⁸And he called them to him and said 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 house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.

26 And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but is coming to an end.

27 But ⁹no one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. ¹⁰Then indeed he may plunder his house.

28 ¹¹"Truly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the children of man, and whatever blasphemies they utter,

29 but whoever ¹²blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin"--

30 for they were saying, "He has an unclean spirit."
