16 And He placed the name Peter on Simon; 17 and James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and on them He placed the names Boanerges, which is, Sons of thunder: 18 and Andrew and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alpheus, and Thaddeus, and Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, 19 who also betrayed Him. 20 And He comes into a house; and the multitude come together again so they are not able to eat bread. 21 And those along with Him hearing came out to arrest Him: for they continued to say, He is beside Himself. 22 And the scribes having come down from Jerusalem were saving, He has Beelzebul and He is casting out the demons through the prince of the demons. 23 And calling them to Him, He continued to speak to them in parables, How is Satan able to cast out Satan? 24 And if a kingdom may be divided against itself, that kingdom is not able to stand, 25 and if a house may be divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand; 26 and if Satan stand up against himself, and is divided, he is not able to stand, but has an end. 27 No one is able, having entered into the house of a strong man, to spoil his goods, unless he may first bind the strong man, and then he will spoil his house. 28 Truly I say unto you, that all sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies whatsoever they may blaspheme: 29 but whosoever may blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is subject of eternal condemnation. 30 Because they were saying, He has an unclean spirit. 31 And His mother and His brothers come; and standing without, sent to Him, calling Him. 32 And the crowd was sitting round Him; and they say to Him, Behold thy mother and thy brothers without are seeking thee. 33 And He responding to them, says, Who is my mother and my brothers? 34 And looking round on His disciples sitting about Him in a circle, He says, Behold my mother and my brothers! 35 For whosoever may do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and my mother.
