Mark 9:15-26 in English

¹⁵ And straightway all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.

¹⁶ And he asked them, What question ye with them?

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.

¹⁵ And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.

¹⁶ And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?

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

¹⁸ 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 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 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 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.

²² 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 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

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

²⁵ 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 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.

¹⁵ And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.

¹⁶ And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?

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

¹⁸ 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 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 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 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.

²² 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 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

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

²⁵ 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 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.

¹⁵ And straightway all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.

¹⁶ And he asked them, What question ye with them?

¹⁷ And one of the multitude answered him, Master, I brought unto thee my son, which 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 child became as one dead; insomuch that the more part said, He is dead.

¹⁵ As soon as the crowd saw Jesus, they were very surprised to see him come. So they ran to him and greeted him.

¹⁶ He asked them, “What are you arguing about?”

¹⁷ A man in the crowd answered him, “Teacher, I brought my son here in order that you would heal him. There is an evil spirit in him that makes him unable to talk.

¹⁸ Whenever the spirit attacks him, it throws him down. He foams at the mouth, he grinds his teeth together, and he becomes stiff. I asked your disciples to expel the spirit, but they were not able to do it.”

¹⁹ Jesus replied by saying to those people, “◄I am very disappointed that although you have observed how I help people, you do not believe that you are able to do anything!/Why is it that although you have observed how I help people, you do not believe that you are able to do anything?► RHQ ◄I have been with you a long time, and you still cannot do what I do!/How long do I have to be with you before you can do what I do?► RHQ Bring the boy to me!”

²⁰ So they brought the boy to Jesus. As soon as the evil spirit saw Jesus, it shook the boy severely, and the boy fell on the ground. He rolled around, and he foamed at the mouth.

²¹ Jesus asked the boy's father, “How long has he been like this?” He replied, “ This started to happen when he was a child.

²² The spirit does not only do this, but he also often throws him into the fire or into the water in order to kill him. But, pity us and help us, if you can!”

²³ Jesus exclaimed to him, “ Do not say RHQ ‘If you can’, for God/I can do anything for people who believe in him/me!”

²⁴ Immediately the child's father shouted, “I believe that you can help me, but I do not believe strongly. Help me to believe more strongly!”

²⁵ Because Jesus wanted to heal the boy before the crowd got bigger, he rebuked the evil spirit, saying, “You evil spirit, you who are causing this boy to be deaf and unable to talk! I command you to come out of him and never enter him again!”

²⁶ The evil spirit shouted, it shook the boy violently, and then it left the boy. The boy did not move. He seemed like a dead body. So many of the people there said, “He is dead!”

¹⁵ Immediately all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him, greeted him.

¹⁶ He asked the scribes, “What are you asking them?”

¹⁷ One of the multitude answered, “Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;

¹⁸ and wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; and he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they weren’t able.”

¹⁹ He answered him, “Unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.”

²⁰ 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 He asked his father, “How long has it been since this has been happening to him?” He said, “From childhood.

²² 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 Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

²⁴ Immediately the father of the child cried out with tears, “I believe. Help my unbelief!”

²⁵ 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 After crying out and convulsing him greatly, it came out of him. The boy became like one dead, so much that most of them said, “He is dead.”

¹⁵ Immediately all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him, greeted him.

¹⁶ He asked the scribes, “What are you asking them?”

¹⁷ One of the multitude answered, “Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;

¹⁸ and wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; and he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they weren’t able.”

¹⁹ He answered him, “Unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.”

²⁰ 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 He asked his father, “How long has it been since this has been happening to him?” He said, “From childhood.

²² 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 Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

²⁴ Immediately the father of the child cried out with tears, “I believe. Help my unbelief!”

²⁵ 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 After crying out and convulsing him greatly, it came out of him. The boy became like one dead, so much that most of them said, “He is dead.”

¹⁵ Immediately all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him, greeted him.

¹⁶ He asked the scribes, “What are you asking them?”

¹⁷ One of the multitude answered, “Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;

¹⁸ and wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; and he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they weren’t able.”

¹⁹ He answered him, “Unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.”

²⁰ 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 He asked his father, “How long has it been since this has been happening to him?” He said, “From childhood.

²² 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 Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

²⁴ Immediately the father of the child cried out with tears, “I believe. Help my unbelief!”

²⁵ 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 After crying out and convulsing him greatly, it came out of him. The boy became like one dead, so much that most of them said, “He is dead.”

¹⁵ And straight away all the people, when they saw him, were full of wonder, and running to him, gave him worship.

¹⁶ And he said, What are you questioning them about?

¹⁷ And one of the number said to him in answer, Master, I came to you with my son, who has in him a spirit which takes away his power of talking;

¹⁸ And wherever it takes him, it puts him down violently, streaming at the lips and twisted with pain; and his strength goes from him; and I made a request to your disciples to send it out, and they were not able.

¹⁹ And he said to them in answer, O generation without faith, how long will I have to be with you? how long will I put up with you? let him come to me.

²⁰ And they took him to him: and when he saw him, the spirit in him straight away became violent; and he went down on the earth, rolling about and streaming at the lips.

²¹ And Jesus questioning the father said, How long has he been like this? And he said, From a child.

²² And frequently it has sent him into the fire and into the water, for his destruction; but if you are able to do anything, have pity on us, and give us help.

²³ And Jesus said to him, If you are able! All things are possible to him who has faith.

²⁴ Straight away the father of the child gave a cry, saying, I have faith; make my feeble faith stronger.

²⁵ And when Jesus saw that the people came running together, he gave orders to the unclean spirit, saying to him, You, spirit, who are the cause of his loss of voice and hearing, I say to you, come out of him, and never again go into him.

²⁶ And after crying out and shaking him violently, it came out: and the child became like one dead; so that most of them said, He is dead.

¹⁵ And immediately all the crowd seeing him were amazed, and running to him, saluted him.

¹⁶ And he asked them, What do ye question with them about?

¹⁷ And one out of the crowd answered him, Teacher, I brought to thee my son, who has a dumb spirit;

¹⁸ and wheresoever it seizes him it tears him, and he foams and gnashes his teeth, and he is withering away. And I spoke to thy disciples, that they might cast him out, and they could not.

¹⁹ But he answering them says, O unbelieving generation! how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him to me.

²⁰ And they brought him to him. And seeing him the spirit immediately tore him; and falling upon the earth he rolled foaming.

²¹ And he asked his father, How long a time is it that it has been like this with him? And he said, From childhood;

²² and often it has cast him both into fire and into waters that it might destroy him: but if thou couldst do anything, be moved with pity on us, and help us.

²³ And Jesus said to him, The 'if thou couldst' is if thou couldst believe: all things are possible to him that believes.

²⁴ And immediately the father of the young child crying out said with tears, I believe, help mine unbelief.

²⁵ But Jesus, seeing that the crowd was running up together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to 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 he became as if dead, so that the most said, He is dead.

¹⁵ And he asked them: What do you question about among you?

¹⁶ And one of the multitude, answering, said: Master, I have brought my son to thee, having a dumb spirit.

¹⁷ Who, wheresoever he taketh him, dasheth him, and he foameth, and gnasheth with the teeth, and pineth away; and I spoke to thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not.

¹⁸ Who answering them, said: O incredulous generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.

¹⁹ And they brought him. And when he had seen him, immediately the spirit troubled him; and being thrown down upon the ground, he rolled about foaming.

²⁰ And he asked his father: How long time is it since this hath happened unto him? But he said: From his infancy:

²¹ And oftentimes hath he cast him into the fire and into waters to destroy him. But if thou canst do any thing, help us, having compassion on us.

²² And Jesus saith to him: If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

²³ And immediately the father of the boy crying out, with tears said: I do believe, Lord: help my unbelief.

²⁴ And when Jesus saw the multitude running together, he threatened the unclean spirit, saying to him: Deaf and dumb spirit, I command thee, go out of him; and enter not any more into him.

²⁵ And crying out, and greatly tearing him, he went out of him, and he became as dead, so that many said: He is dead.

²⁶ But Jesus taking him by the hand, lifted him up; and he arose.

¹⁵ Immediately, when they saw Him, all the people were greatly amazed, and running to Him, they greeted Him.

¹⁶ And He asked the scribes, “What are you disputing about with them?”

¹⁷ Then one of the crowd answered and said, “Teacher, I brought my son to You, because he has a mute spirit.

¹⁸ And wherever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth, and gnashes his teeth, and he becomes rigid. So I spoke to Your disciples, that they might cast it out, but they were not able.”

¹⁹ He answered him and said, “O unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to Me.”

²⁰ Then they brought the boy to Him. And when he saw Him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and having fallen on the ground he was rolling about, foaming at the mouth.

²¹ So He asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood.

²² And often it threw him both into the fire and into the waters so that it may destroy him. But if You are able to do anything, help us and have compassion on us.”

²³ Jesus said to him, “If you are able to believe: all things are possible to him that believes.”

²⁴ And immediately crying out, the father of the child said with tears, “I believe, Lord; help my unbelief!”

²⁵ When Jesus saw that a crowd was running together, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, “Mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter him no more!”

²⁶ Then having cried out and having convulsed him greatly, it came out. And he became as one dead, so that many were saying, “He is dead.”

¹⁵ Well as soon as the crowd saw Him they were excited and ran to greet Him.

¹⁶ He asked the scribes, “What are you discussing with them?”

¹⁷ In answer a man in the crowd said: “Teacher, I brought you my son, who has a mute spirit.

¹⁸ And wherever it seizes him it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth and gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid. Indeed, I spoke to your disciples, that they might cast it out, but they could not.”

¹⁹ But He answered him by saying: “O unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you, how long shall I put up with you? Bring him to me!”

²⁰ So they brought him to Him. Upon seeing Him the spirit convulsed him, and falling to the ground he started wallowing, foaming at the mouth.

²¹ Then He asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said: “From childhood.

²² Really, it has often thrown him both into fire and into water to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”

²³ Jesus said to him, “It's ‘if you can believe’; all things are possible to the one who believes.”

²⁴ Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”

²⁵ When Jesus saw that the crowd was running up, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You mute and deaf spirit, I am commanding you, get out of him and never enter him again!”

²⁶ Then it yelled, convulsed him violently, and came out. Well he looked to be dead; so much so that many said, “He's dead.”

¹⁵ As soon as the crowd saw Jesus they were in total awe, and ran to greet him.

¹⁶ “What are you arguing with them about?” Jesus asked them.

¹⁷ One of the people in the crowd answered, “Rabbi, I brought my son to you. He has an evil spirit that prevents him speaking.

¹⁸ Whenever he has a seizure it throws him down, and he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and he becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to drive it out of him, but they couldn't do it.”

¹⁹ “You unbelieving people!” Jesus responded. “How long must I remain here with you? How long do I have to put up with you? Bring him over here to me!”

²⁰ So they brought him to Jesus. When the evil spirit saw Jesus it immediately sent the boy into convulsions and threw him on the ground, where he rolled around, foaming at the mouth.

²¹ “How long has he had this?” Jesus asked the boy's father. “Since he was small,” the father replied.

²² “Often it throws him into the fire to burn him to death, or throws him into water to drown him. Please have mercy on us and help, if you can.”

²³ “Why do you say, ‘if you can?’” replied Jesus. “Whoever trusts has every power!”

²⁴ “I do trust in you,” the man shouted out right away. “Help me not to distrust you.”

²⁵ Jesus, seeing that the crowd was closing in, commanded the evil spirit, “Spirit that causes deafness and dumbness, I order you to come out of him and never return.”

²⁶ The spirit screamed and threw the boy into severe convulsions. Then the spirit came out of the boy and left him for dead—to the extent that many of the people said, “He's dead.”

¹⁵ And straightway all the people, when they behelde him, were amased, and ranne to him, and saluted him.

¹⁶ Then hee asked the Scribes, What dispute you among your selues?

¹⁷ And one of the companie answered, and said, Master, I haue brought my sonne vnto thee, which hath a dumme spirit:

¹⁸ And wheresoeuer he taketh him, he teareth him, and he fometh, and gnasheth his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples, that they should cast him out, and they could not.

¹⁹ Then he answered him, and said, O faithlesse generation, how long now shall I be with you! how long now shall I suffer you! Bring him vnto me.

²⁰ So they brought him vnto him: and assoone as the spirit sawe him, hee tare him, and hee fell downe on the ground walowing and foming.

²¹ Then he asked his father, How long time is it since he hath bin thus? And he said, Of a childe.

²² And oft times he casteth him into the fire, and into the water to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, helpe vs, and haue compassion vpon vs.

²³ And Iesus said vnto him, If thou canst beleeue it, al things are possible to him that beleeueth.

²⁴ And straightway the father of the childe crying with teares, saide, Lord, I beleeue: helpe my vnbeliefe.

²⁵ When Iesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the vncleane spirit, saying vnto him, Thou domme and deafe spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

²⁶ Then the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out, and he was as one dead, in so much that many said, He is dead.

¹⁵ And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him saluted him.

¹⁶ And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?

¹⁷ And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit:

¹⁸ 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 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 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 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.

²² 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 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

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

²⁵ 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 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.

¹⁵ When the crowd looked they saw Jesus close, they were pleased, they ran to meet him. “We are happy! You have come!”

¹⁶ Jesus asked his men, “Why were you arguing with them?”

¹⁷ One man said to him, “Teacher, my child is controlled by an evil spirit, he can't talk.

¹⁸ The spirit grabs him, it throws him on the ground. Saliva froths from his mouth, he grinds his teeth, his body becomes very stiff. Therefore I brought him to you so you can make him well. I asked your men to send the demon right away. Nothing. They tried in vain to send it away.”

¹⁹ Then Jesus said to his men, “You truly have not believed in God. How is it? You are still unbelievers. How long shall I be with you? Shall I teach you for a long time? After that will you believe in God? Bring the child to me.”

²⁰ They brought him to him. As soon as he saw Jesus the spirit grabbed that child, it made him thrash around. At that time the child fell on the ground, trembling he was rolling from side to side. Saliva was coming from his mouth.

²¹ Jesus asked his father, “When did he become like this?” He said to him, “When he was a child.

²² Many times the spirit has thrown him in the fire or in the water, it has been trying to kill him. Have pity on us. Perhaps you will make him well.”

²³ Jesus replied, “Yes, I know how to heal him. Why did you say that word to me, 'Perhaps you will make him well.'? You must believe in God. Then you can ask God for anything. For that particular thing he knows how to do it. It is not a puzzle for God.” Right then the man called out loudly, “I believe in God. Teach me to believe properly!”

²⁵ Jesus saw many people gathering together. Therefore he said sternly to the evil spirit, “You bad spirit, you made this child deaf, you made him unable to speak. Leave. Go away. Do not again control him.”

²⁶ The spirit called out, it was making the child thrash around, it was very bad. Then it left, it went away permanently. That child was like a corpse. Many were saying, “He is truly dead.”

¹⁵ And immediately the whole multitude on seeing him was struck with awe, and running to him, saluted him.

¹⁶ And he asked them, About what are ye debating with them?

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

¹⁸ And wherever it seizeth hold of him, it throweth him down; and he foameth and gnasheth his teeth; and he pineth away. And I spoke to thy disciples to cast it out, and they were not able.

¹⁹ He answereth and saith to them, O unbelieving generation! How long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.

²⁰ And they brought him to him. And as soon as he saw him, the spirit convulsed him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed, foaming.

²¹ And he asked his father, How long hath it been thus with him? And he said, From a child;

²² and it hath often cast him both into fire, and into water, to destroy him; but if thou art able to do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.

²³ Jesus said to him, If thou art able? All things are possible for him that believeth.

²⁴ The father of the child immediately cried out and said, I believe; help thou my unbelief.

²⁵ And Jesus seeing that the multitude came running together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, Dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

²⁶ And uttering a cry, and convulsing him much, it came out of him. And he became as one dead; so that very many said, He is dead.

¹⁵ But, as soon as they saw Jesus, all the people, in great astonishment, ran up and greeted him.

¹⁶ “What are you arguing about with them?” Jesus asked.

¹⁷ “Teacher,” answered a man in the crowd, “I brought my son to see you, as he has a spirit in him that makes him mute;

¹⁸ and, wherever it seizes him, it dashes him down; he foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth, and he is pining away. I asked your disciples to drive the spirit out, but they failed.”

¹⁹ “Faithless generation!” exclaimed Jesus. “How long must I be with you? How long must I have patience with you? Bring the boy to me.”

²⁰ They brought him to Jesus; but no sooner did the boy see him than the spirit threw him into convulsions; and he fell on the ground, and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.

²¹ “How long has he been like this?” Jesus asked the boy's father.

²² “From his childhood,” he answered; “and it has often thrown him into fire and into water to put an end to his life; but, if you can possibly do anything, take pity on us, and help us!”

²³ “Why say ‘possibly’?” Jesus replied. “Everything is possible for one who has faith.”

²⁴ The boy's father immediately cried out, “I have faith; help my want of faith!”

²⁵ But, when Jesus saw that a crowd was quickly collecting, he rebuked the foul spirit, “Deaf and dumb spirit, it is I who command you. Come out from him and never enter him again.”

²⁶ With a loud cry the spirit threw the boy into repeated convulsions, and then came out from him. The boy looked like a corpse, so that most of them said that he was dead.

¹⁵ But, as soon as they saw Jesus, all the people, in great astonishment, ran up and greeted him.

¹⁶ “What are you arguing about with them?” Jesus asked.

¹⁷ “Teacher,” answered a man in the crowd, “I brought my son to see you, as he has a spirit in him that makes him mute;

¹⁸ and, wherever it seizes him, it dashes him down; he foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth, and he is pining away. I asked your disciples to drive the spirit out, but they failed.”

¹⁹ “Faithless generation!” exclaimed Jesus. “How long must I be with you? How long must I have patience with you? Bring the boy to me.”

²⁰ They brought him to Jesus; but no sooner did the boy see him than the spirit threw him into convulsions; and he fell on the ground, and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.

²¹ “How long has he been like this?” Jesus asked the boy's father.

²² “From his childhood,” he answered; “and it has often thrown him into fire and into water to put an end to his life; but, if you can possibly do anything, take pity on us, and help us!”

²³ “Why say ‘possibly’?” Jesus replied. “Everything is possible for one who has faith.”

²⁴ The boy's father immediately cried out, “I have faith; help my want of faith!”

²⁵ But, when Jesus saw that a crowd was quickly collecting, he rebuked the foul spirit, “Deaf and dumb spirit, it is I who command you. Come out from him and never enter him again.”

²⁶ With a loud cry the spirit threw the boy into repeated convulsions, and then came out from him. The boy looked like a corpse, so that most of them said that he was dead.

¹⁵ Immediately all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him greeted him.

¹⁶ He asked the Torah-Teachers, “What are you asking them?”

¹⁷ One of the multitude answered, “Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;

¹⁸ 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 were not able.”

¹⁹ He answered him, “Unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.”

²⁰ 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 He asked 'Aviv his father, “How long has it been since this has come to him?” He said, “From childhood.

²² 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 Yeshua Salvation said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

²⁴ Immediately the Abba father of the child cried out with tears, “I believe. Help my unbelief!”

²⁵ When Yeshua Salvation 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 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.”

¹⁵ They looked up and saw Jesus and they were surprised, and they all ran to him and said hello to him.

¹⁶ Jesus asked them, “What are you mob all arguing about?”

¹⁷ One of the men there said to Jesus, “Teacher, my son has a bad spirit inside him and it stops him from talking.

¹⁸ It pushes the boy down on to the ground, his body goes stiff and he rubs his teeth together and spit comes out of his mouth. I asked your followers, ‘Please force that bad spirit out of him.’ But they can’t do it.”

¹⁹ Jesus said, “How come you mob that are alive today can’t believe? Do I have to always stay here and do everything for you? Bring the boy here to me.”

²⁰ The people brought the boy to Jesus. As soon as that bad spirit saw Jesus it shook the boy and pushed him down so that he wriggled around on the ground, and a lot of spit came out of his mouth.

²¹ Jesus asked the boy’s father, “How long has your boy been like this?” The man said, “For a long time, from when he was little kid.

²² Lots of times the bad spirit pushes him into fires and into water. That bad spirit is trying to kill him. Please feel sorry for us and help him if you can.”

²³ Jesus said, “You said to me, ‘If you can.’ Don’t you know that God is strong enough to do anything if you trust him to do it?”

²⁴ That boy’s father yelled out, “I believe God can do it. But please help me believe more.”

²⁵ Jesus looked around and saw a big mob of people coming to watch, so he growled at the bad spirit. He said, “Hey. You bad spirit that stops people from talking and hearing, I’m telling you now, come out of this little boy, and stay out of him. You can never go back into him.”

²⁶ Then the bad spirit screamed and forced the boy to take another bad fit and fall down on the ground, then it went out of the boy. The boy looked like he was dead, and a lot of people said, “Poor boy, he is finished.”

¹⁵ And streyght waye all the people when they behelde him were amased and ran to him and saluted him.

¹⁶ And he sayde vnto the Scribes: what dispute ye with them?

¹⁷ And one of the companye answered and sayde: Master I have brought my sonne vnto the which hath a dome spirite.

¹⁸ And whensoever he taketh him he teareth him and he fometh and gnassheth with his tethe and pyneth awaye. And I spake to thy disciples that they shuld caste him out and they coulde not.

¹⁹ He answered him and sayd: O generacion with out faith how longe shall I be with you? How longe shall I suffre you? Bringe him vnto me.

²⁰ And they brought him vnto him. And assone as the sprete sawe him he tare him. And he fell doune on the grounde walowinge and fomynge.

²¹ And he axed his father: how longe is it a goo sens this hath happened him? And he sayde of a chylde:

²² and ofte tymes casteth him into the fyre and also into the water to destroye him. But yf thou canste do eny thinge have mercy on vs and helpe vs.

²³ And Iesus sayde vnto him: ye yf thou couldest beleve all thinges are possible to him that belevith.

²⁴ And streygth waye the father of the chylde cryed with teares sayinge: Lorde I beleve helpe myne vnbelefe.

²⁵ When Iesus sawe that the people came runnynge togedder vnto him he rebuked the foule sprete sayinge vnto him: Thou domme and deffe sprete I charge the come out of him and entre no more into him.

²⁶ And the sprete cryed and rent him sore and came out: And he was as one that had bene deed in so moche that many sayde he is deed.

¹⁵ As soon as they saw Jesus, the whole crowd was amazed and as they ran up to him they greeted him.

¹⁶ He asked his disciples, “What are you arguing with them about?”

¹⁷ Someone in the crowd answered him, “Teacher, I brought my son to you. He has a spirit that makes him unable to speak.

¹⁸ It seizes him and it throws him down and he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and he becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to drive it out of him, but they could not.”

¹⁹ He answered them, “Unbelieving generation, how long will I have to stay with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him to me.”

²⁰ They brought the boy to him. When the spirit saw Jesus, it immediately threw him into a convulsion. The boy fell on the ground and foamed at the mouth.

²¹ Jesus asked his father, “How long has he been like this?” The father said, “Since childhood.

²² It has often thrown him into the fire or into the waters and tried to destroy him. If you are able to do anything, have pity on us and help us.”

²³ Jesus said to him, “'If you are able'? All things are possible for the one who believes.”

²⁴ Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, “I believe! Help my unbelief!”

²⁵ When Jesus saw the crowd running to them, he rebuked the unclean spirit and said, “You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter into him again.”

¹⁷ One of the multitude answered, “Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;

¹⁹ He answered him, “Unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.”

²⁰ 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.

²⁶ and having cried, and rent him much, it came forth, and he became as dead, so that many said that he was dead,
