¹⁴ And he was sending an evil spirit out of a man who was without the power of talking. And it came about that when the spirit had gone the man had the power of talking; and the people were full of wonder.

³² And while they were going away, there came to him a man without the power of talking, and with an evil spirit.

³³ And when the evil spirit had been sent out, the man had the power of talking: and they were all surprised, saying, Such a thing has never been seen in Israel.

³⁴ But the Pharisees said, By the ruler of evil spirits, he sends evil spirits out of men.

²² Then they took to him one with an evil spirit, who was blind and had no power of talking: and he made him well so that he had the power of talking and seeing.

²³ And all the people were surprised and said, Is not this the Son of David?

²⁴ But the Pharisees, hearing of it, said, This man only sends evil spirits out of men by Beelzebub, the ruler of evil spirits.

³² And they came to him with one who had no power of hearing and had trouble in talking; and they made a request to him to put his hands on him.

³³ And he took him on one side from the people privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he put water from his mouth on the man's tongue with his finger;

³⁴ And looking up to heaven, he took a deep breath, and said to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be open.

³⁵ And his ears became open, and the band of his tongue was made loose, and his words became clear.

³⁶ And he gave them orders not to give news of it to anyone; but the more he made this request, so much the more they made it public.

³⁷ And they were overcome with wonder, saying, He has done all things well: he even gives back the power of hearing and the power of talking to those who have been without them.
