³² And as they went forth, behold, there was brought to him a dumb man possessed with a demon.

²⁴ And the report of him went forth into all Syria: and they brought unto him all that were sick, holden with divers diseases and torments, possessed with demons, and epileptic, and palsied; and he healed them.

²² Then was brought unto him one possessed with a demon, blind and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the dumb man spake and saw.

²³ And all the multitudes were amazed, and said, Can this be the son of David?

²⁴ But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This man doth not cast out demons, but by Beelzebub the prince of the demons.

¹⁴ And he was casting out a demon `that was' dumb. And it came to pass, when the demon was gone out, the dumb man spake; and the multitudes marvelled.

¹⁷ And one of the multitude answered him, Teacher, I brought unto thee my son, who hath a dumb spirit;

¹⁸ and wheresoever it taketh him, it dasheth him down: and he foameth, and grindeth his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast it out; and they were not able.

¹⁹ And he answereth them and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him unto me.

²⁰ And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him grievously; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.

²¹ And he asked his father, How long time is it since this hath come unto him? And he said, From a child.

²² And oft-times it hath cast him both into the fire and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do anything, have compassion on us, and help us.

²³ And Jesus said unto him, If thou canst! All things are possible to him that believeth.

²⁴ Straightway the father of the child cried out, and said, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

²⁵ And when Jesus saw that a multitude came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

²⁶ And having cried out, and torn him much, he came out: and `the boy' became as one dead; insomuch that the more part said, He is dead.

²⁷ But Jesus took him by the hand, and raised him up; and he arose.
