The verses around it, from Luke 11.
18 If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.
19 And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.
20 But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
21 When a strong man, fully armed, guards his house, his possessions are secure.

23 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.
24 When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’
25 On its return, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.
26 Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and dwell there. And the final plight of that man is worse than the first.”
