But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, “It is only by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, that this fellow drives out demons.”
And the teachers of the law who came down from Jerusalem said, “He is possessed by Beelzebul! By the prince of demons he is driving out demons.”
But the Pharisees said, “It is by the prince of demons that he drives out demons.”
But some of them said, “By Beelzebul, the prince of demons, he is driving out demons.”

Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. When the demon left, the man who had been mute spoke, and the crowd was amazed.
May this be the Lord’s payment to my accusers, to those who speak evil of me.
