But he, having knowledge of their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom in which there is division is made waste; and a house in which there is division comes to destruction.

δὲ de “now”

If, then, Satan is at war with himself, how will he keep his kingdom? because you say that I send evil spirits out of men by the help of Beelzebul.

δὲ de “now”

And if I, by Beelzebul, send out evil spirits, by whose help do your sons send them out? so let them be your judges.

δὲ de “now”

But if I, by the finger of God, send out evil spirits, then the kingdom of God has overtaken you.

δὲ de “however”

But when one who is stronger makes an attack on him and overcomes him, he takes away his instruments of war, in which he had put his faith, and makes division of his goods.

δὲ de “however”

And it came about that when he said these things, a certain woman among the people said in a loud voice, Happy is the body which gave you birth, and the breasts from which you took milk.

δὲ de “then”

But he said, More happy are they who give hearing to the word of God and keep it.

δὲ de “then”

And when a great number of people came together to him, he said, This generation is an evil generation: it is looking for a sign and no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah.

δὲ de “now”

No man, when the light has been lighted, puts it in a secret place, or under a vessel, but on its table, so that those who come in may see the light.

δὲ de “now”

The light of the body is the eye: when your eye is true, all your body is full of light; but when it is evil, your body is dark.

δὲ de “however”

Now, while he was talking, a Pharisee made a request that he would come to a meal with him; and he went in and took his seat at the meal.

δὲ de “then”δὲ de “then”

And when the Pharisee saw it, he was surprised because he came to the meal without first washing himself.

δὲ de “And”

And the Lord said to him, You Pharisees make the outside of the cup and the plate clean; but inside you are thieves and full of evil.

δὲ de “then”δὲ de “and”

But a curse is on you, Pharisees! for you make men give a tenth of every sort of plant, and give no thought to right and the love of God; but it is right for you to do these things, and not let the others be undone.

δὲ de “also”

And one of the teachers of the law, answering, said to him, Master, in saying this, you give a bad name to us as to them.

δέ de “now”

And he said, A curse is on you, teachers of the law! for while other men are crushed under the weight of the rules you make for them, you yourselves do not put so much as one finger to them.

δὲ de “And”

A curse is on you! for you make resting-places for the bodies of the prophets, but your fathers put them to death.

And when he had come out of that place, the scribes and the Pharisees came round him angrily, questioning him about more things;

δὲ de “now”

And I say to you, my friends, Have no fear of those who may put the body to death, and are able to do no more than that.

δὲ de “now”

But I will make clear to you of whom you are to be in fear: of him who after death has power to send you to hell; yes, truly I say, Have fear of him.

δὲ de “however”

And I say to you that to everyone who gives witness to me before men, the Son of man will give witness before the angels of God.

δὲ de “now”

But if anyone says before men that he has no knowledge of me, I will say that I have no knowledge of him before the angels of God.

δὲ de “now”

And if anyone says a word against the Son of man, he will have forgiveness: but for him who says evil words against the Holy Spirit, there will be no forgiveness.
