Mark 3:14-27
New American Standard Bible
14 And He appointed twelve, so that they would be with Him and that He could send them out to preach, 15 and to have authority to cast out the demons. 16 And He appointed the twelve: (A)Simon (to whom He gave the name Peter), 17 [a]James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of [b]James (to them He gave the name Boanerges, which means, “Sons of Thunder”); 18 and Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, [c]James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, and Simon the [d]Zealot; 19 and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.
20 And He *came [e](B)home, and the (C)crowd *gathered again, (D)to such an extent that they could not even eat [f]a meal. 21 And when (E)His own [g]people heard about this, they came out to take custody of Him; for they were saying, “(F)He has lost His senses.” 22 The scribes who came down (G)from Jerusalem were saying, “He [h]is possessed by [i](H)Beelzebul,” and “(I)He casts out the demons by the ruler of the demons.” 23 (J)And so He called them to Himself and began speaking to them in (K)parables: “How can (L)Satan cast out Satan? 24 And if a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 If a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. 26 And if (M)Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but [j]he is finished! 27 (N)But no one can enter the strong man’s house and plunder his property unless he first ties up the strong man, and then he will plunder his house.

New International Version
14 He appointed twelve[a](A) that they might be with him and that he might send them out to preach 15 and to have authority to drive out demons.(B) 16 These are the twelve he appointed: Simon (to whom he gave the name Peter),(C) 17 James son of Zebedee and his brother John (to them he gave the name Boanerges, which means “sons of thunder”), 18 Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot 19 and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.
Jesus Accused by His Family and by Teachers of the Law(D)(E)
20 Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered,(F) so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat.(G) 21 When his family[b] heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.”(H)
22 And the teachers of the law who came down from Jerusalem(I) said, “He is possessed by Beelzebul!(J) By the prince of demons he is driving out demons.”(K)
23 So Jesus called them over to him and began to speak to them in parables:(L) “How can Satan(M) drive out Satan? 24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. 26 And if Satan opposes himself and is divided, he cannot stand; his end has come. 27 In fact, no one can enter a strong man’s house without first tying him up. Then he can plunder the strong man’s house.(N)

Mark 3:14-27
King James Version
14 And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach,
15 And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils:
16 And Simon he surnamed Peter;
17 And James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he surnamed them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder:
18 And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite,
19 And Judas Iscariot, which also betrayed him: and they went into an house.
20 And the multitude cometh together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.
21 And when his friends heard of it, they went out to lay hold on him: for they said, He is beside himself.
22 And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils.
23 And he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, 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 be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end.
27 No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.
