1 And it came to pass, that He was in a certain place praying; when He ceased, one of His disciples said to Him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.

13 If then you, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, then how much more will your Father who is from heaven give the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him?

14 And He was casting out a demon, and he was dumb: and it came to pass, the demon having gone out, the dumb spoke; and the multitudes were astonished.

18 And if Satan were indeed divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? Because you say I am casting out demons through Beelzebul.

19 But if I through Beelzebul cast out the demons, through whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges:

42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! because you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and you pass by judgment and the love of God: it behooveth to do these things, and not to omit those.

45 And a certain one of the theologians responding says to Him, Teacher, speaking these things yon indeed insult us.

49 Therefore the wisdom of God said, I will send unto them prophets and apostles; and some of them they will slay and persecute.
