16 And he set to Simon the name Peter; 17 And James, him of Zebedee, and John brother of James; and he set to them names Boanerges, which is, Sons of thunder: 18 And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James him of Alpheus, and Thaddeus, and Simon the Canaanite, 19 And Judas Iscariot, who also delivered him up. 20 And they came into the house; and again came the crowd together, so that they could not even eat bread. 21 And they with him, having heard, came forth to take hold of him: for they said, That he is affected in mind. 22 And the scribes, they having come down from Jerusalem, said, That he has Beelzeboul, and that by the ruler of demons he casts out demons. 23 And having called them, in parables spake he to them, How can Satan cast out Satan. 24 And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand. 26 And if Satan rise up against himself, and has been divided, he cannot stand, but has an end. 27 None can plunder the vessels of the strong, having entered his house, except he first bind the strong; then he will plunder his house. 28 Truly I say to you, That all sins shall be remitted to the sons of men, and defamations whatever they defame: 29 And whoever should defame against the Holy Spirit has no remission forever, but he is liable to the penalty of eternal condemnation. 30 For they said, He has an unclean spirit. 31 Then came his brethren and his mother, and, standing without, they sent to him, calling him. 32 And the crowd sat about him, and they said to him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek thee. 33 And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, and my brethren? 34 And having looked round upon those sitting round about him, he says, Behold my mother and my brethren! 35 For whoever should do the will of God, he is my brother, and my sister, and mother.
