^{17 Ref} And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit;

^{18 Ref} And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not.

^{19 Ref} He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.

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

^{21 Ref} And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.

^{22 Ref} And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.

^{23 Ref} Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

^{24 Ref} And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

^{25 Ref} When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

^{26 Ref} And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.

^{27 Ref} But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.

^{28 Ref} And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out?

^{17 Ref} One of the multitude answered, "Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;

^{18 Ref} and wherever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth, and grinds his teeth, and wastes away. I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they weren't able."

^{19 Ref} He answered him, "Unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me."

^{20 Ref} They brought him to him, and when he saw him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground, wallowing and foaming at the mouth.

^{21 Ref} He asked his father, "How long has it been since this has come to him?" He said, "From childhood.

^{22 Ref} Often it has cast him both into the fire and into the water, to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us, and help us."

^{23 Ref} Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes."

^{24 Ref} Immediately the father of the child cried out with tears, "I believe. Help my unbelief!"

^{25 Ref} When Jesus saw that a multitude came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, "You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again!"

^{26 Ref} Having cried out, and convulsed greatly, it came out of him. The boy became like one dead; so much that most of them said, "He is dead."

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

^{28 Ref} When he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, "Why couldn't we cast it out?"

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

^{18 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} And he asked his father, How long time is it since this hath come unto him? And he said, From a child.

^{22 Ref} 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 Ref} And Jesus said unto him, If thou canst! All things are possible to him that believeth.

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

^{25 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} But Jesus took him by the hand, and raised him up; and he arose.

^{28 Ref} And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, `How is it' that we could not cast it out?
