Matthew	Mark	Luke
12:43-45 43 "When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest, but he finds none.  44 Then he says, `I will return to my house from which I came.' And when he comes he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.  45 Then he goes and brings with him seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first. So shall it be also with this evil generation."		11:24-26 24 "When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest; and finding none he says, `I will return to my house from which I came.'  25 And when he comes he finds it swept and put in order. 26 Then he goes and brings seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first."
