"When a strong man who is fully equipped for battle guards his own house, his possessions are secure.
22
But when someone stronger attacks and defeats him, he carries off all the armor and weaponry on which the man was depending, and divides up the spoils.
23
Those who are not with me are against me, and those who do not gather with me are scattering.

"When an unclean spirit comes out of a person, it travels through dry country seeking rest. On finding none, it says, `I will return to the house I left.'
25
When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.
26
Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they come and live there -- so that in the end the person is worse off than he was before."

As the people crowded around him, Yeshua went on to say, "This generation is a wicked generation! It asks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it -- except the sign of Yonah.
30
For just as Yonah became a sign to the people of Ninveh, so will the Son of Man be for this generation.
