12 Then the Pharisees went out and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.
13 But Jesus knew when they took counsel, and he withdrew himself from thence; and great multitudes followed him, and he healed their sick, and charged them that they should not make him known;
14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased.
15 I will put my Spirit upon him, and he shall show judgment to the Gentiles. He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.
16 A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.
17 And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
18 Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind and dumb; and he healed him; insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.
19 And all the people were amazed, and said, Is this the Son of David?
20 But when the Pharisees heard that he had cast out the devil, they said, This man doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of devils.
21 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself, shall not stand. And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then shall his kingdom stand?
22 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast our devils? Therefore they shall be your judges.
