Gospel Luke 11:15-26
15But some of them said, “It is by Beelzebub, the leader of demons, that he casts out demons.”
16And others, testing him, required a sign from heaven of him.
17But when he perceived their thoughts, he said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself will become desolate, and house will fall upon house.
18So then, if Satan is also divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that it is by Beelzebub that I cast out demons.
19But if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your own sons cast them out? Therefore, they shall be your judges.
20Moreover, if it is by the finger of God that I cast out demons, then certainly the kingdom of God has overtaken you.
21When a strong armed man guards his entrance, the things that he possesses are at peace.
22But if a stronger one, overwhelming him, has defeated him, he will take away all his weapons, in which he trusted, and he will distribute his spoils.
23Whoever is not with me, is against me. And whoever does not gather with me, scatters.
24When an unclean spirit has departed from a man, he walks through waterless places, seeking rest. And not finding any, he says: ‘I will return to my house, from which I departed.’
25And when he has arrived, he finds it swept clean and decorated.
26Then he goes, and he takes in seven other spirits with him, more wicked than himself, and they enter and live there. And so, the end of that man is made worse than the beginning.”

In US parishes the readings are proclaimed from the NABRE; the text shown here is the Catholic Public Domain Version.
Old Testament readings and the psalm are listed with a link to their chapter: the US Lectionary numbers some of their verses differently from the CPDV, so their text is not printed here. Psalm citations keep the Lectionary’s Hebrew numbering; the CPDV numbers the Psalms as the Vulgate does.
