12:28  But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then is the kingdom of God come upon you1.

12:29  Or how can one enter into the house of the strong [man,] and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong [man]? and then he will spoil his house.

12:30  He that is not with me is against me1, and he that gathereth not with me scattereth2.

12:31  Therefore I say unto you, Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men1; but the blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven.

12:32  And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him1; but whosoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit2, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in that which is to come.

12:33  Either make the tree good, and its fruit good1; or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by its fruit.

12:34  Ye offspring of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things1? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

12:35  The good man out of his good treasure bringeth forth good things: and the evil man out of his evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.

12:36  And I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment1.

12:37  For by thy words thou shalt be justified1, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

12:38  Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered him, saying, Teacher, we would see a sign from thee1.

12:39  But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign1; and there shall no sign be given it but the sign of Jonah the prophet2:

12:40  for as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale1; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights2 in the heart of the earth3.

12:41  The men of Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment1 with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonah2; and behold, a greater than Jonah is here3.

12:42  The queen of the south1 shall rise up in the judgment2 with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the ends of the earth3 to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, a greater than Solomon is here4.

12:43  But the unclean spirit, when he is gone out of the man, passeth through waterless places, seeking rest, and findeth it not2.

12:44  Then he saith, I will return into my house1 whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished2.

12:45  Then1 goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits2 more evil than himself3, and they enter in and dwell there4: and the last state of that man becometh worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this evil generation5.

12:46  While he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without1, seeking to speak to him.

12:47  And one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without1, seeking to speak to thee2.

12:48  But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?

12:49  And he stretched forth his hand towards his disciples, and said, Behold, my mother and my brethren!

12:50  For whosoever shall do the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.
