Matthew 12:29-32

Contemporary English Version

^29 (A) How can anyone break into a strong man's house and steal his things, unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can take everything.

^30 (B) If you are not on my side, you are against me. If you don't gather in the harvest with me, you scatter it. ^31-32 (C) I tell you any sinful thing you do or say can be forgiven. Even if you speak against the Son of Man, you can be forgiven. But if you speak against the Holy Spirit, you can never be forgiven, either in this life or in the life to come.
