Matthew 12:44

44 Then it says, "I will return to my house from which I came.' When it comes, it finds it empty, swept, and put in order.

Matthew 12:44 In-Context

42 The queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to listen to the wisdom of Solomon, and see, something greater than Solomon is here!
43 "When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it wanders through waterless regions looking for a resting place, but it finds none.
44 Then it says, "I will return to my house from which I came.' When it comes, it finds it empty, swept, and put in order.
45 Then it goes and brings along seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and live there; and the last state of that person is worse than the first. So will it be also with this evil generation."
46 While he was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and his brothers were standing outside, wanting to speak to him.
