Matthew 12:16-28 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

16. And charged them that they should not make him known:

17. That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying,

18. Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall show justice to the Gentiles.

19. He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.

20. A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he sends forth justice unto victory.

21. And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.

22. Then was brought unto him one possessed with a demon, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, so that the blind and dumb both spoke and saw.

23. And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?

24. But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow does not cast out demons, but by Beelzebub the prince of the demons.

25. And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them,

26. And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?

27. And if I by Beelzebub cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.

28. But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.
