Ndipo anawayang'ana mokwiya, atamva chisoni chifukwa cha kuuma kwa mitima yawo, nati kwa munthuyo, “Tambasula dzanja lako.” Iye analitambasula, ndipo dzanja lake linabwezeretsedwa.

Pakuti anali atachiritsa anthu ambiri, kotero kuti onse amene anali ndi matenda ankakankhana kuti amukhudze. Ndipo mizimu yoipa, nthawi iliyonse imene inamuona, inagwa pamaso pake, ikufuula kuti, “Inu ndinu Mwana wa Mulungu!” Koma anaichenjeza kwambiri kuti isamuulule.

Ndipo anthu a kwawo atamva, anatuluka kukamugwira, pakuti anati, “Wachita misala.” Ndipo alembi amene anatsika kuchokera ku Yerusalemu anati, “Ali ndi Belezebule,” ndiponso anati, “Amatulutsa ziwanda ndi mphamvu ya mkulu wa ziwanda.”

Ndipo Yesu anawayitanira kwa Iye, nayankhula nawo m'mafanizo kuti, “Kodi Satana angatulutse bwanji Satana? Ngati ufumu ugawanika pakati pawo, ufumu umenewo sungaime. Ndipo ngati nyumba igawanika pakati pawo, nyumba imeneyo sidzatha kuyima. Ndipo ngati Satana adzitsutsa yekha nagawanika, sangathe kuyima; koma mapeto ake afika. Palibe munthu angathe kulowa m'nyumba ya munthu wamphamvu nalanda katundu wake, asanayambe kumumanga munthu wamphamvuyo—pamenepo akhoza kufunkha nyumbayo.

pakuti ankanena kuti, “Ali ndi mzimu woipa.”

Ndipo amayi ake ndi abale ake anafika, ndipo atayima kunja, anatumiza kwa Iye, kumuyitana. Khamu la anthu linakhala litamuzungulira, nati kwa Iye, “Onani, amayi anu ndi abale anu ali kunja, akukufunani.”

Iye anawayankha nati, “Amayi anga ndi abale anga ndani?” Ndipo atayang'ana amene anakhala atamuzungulira, anati, “Awa ndiwo amayi anga ndi abale anga! Aliyense amene achita chifuniro cha Atate wathu, ndiye mbale wanga ndi mlongo wanga ndi amayi anga.”
