Now when the Pharisees heard it they said, “This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons.”
And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, “He has Beelzebub,” and, “By the ruler of the demons He casts out demons.”
But the Pharisees said, “He casts out demons by the ruler of the demons.”
But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons.”
As they went out, behold, they brought to Him a man, mute and demon-possessed.
It is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they call those of his household!
And He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. So it was, when the demon had gone out, that the mute spoke; and the multitudes marveled.
Let this be the Lord’s reward to my accusers, And to those who speak evil against my person.
