   Mark 9:14-29   
      
   The Healing of a Boy With an Unclean Spirit   
   Mt 17:14-20; Lk 9:37-43   
      
   14 When He came to His other disciples, He saw a great crowd around them,   
   and the scribes disputing with them.   
   15 ­Immediately when all the people saw Him, they were greatly amazed,   
   and running to Him, greeted Him.   
   16 He asked the scribes, "What are you debating with them?"   
   17 (Mk 9:25; Lk 11:14) One in the crowd answered, "Teacher, I brought You   
   my son, who has a mute spirit.   
   18 Wherever it takes hold on him, it dashes him to the ground.   
   And he foams at the mouth and gnashes with his teeth and becomes rigid.   
   And I told Your disciples so that they would cast it out, but they could not."   
   19 (Jn 20:27) He answered, "O faithless generation, how long shall I be with   
   you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to Me."   
   20 (Mk 1:26) So they brought the boy to Him. When he saw Him, immediately   
   the spirit dashed him, and he fell on the ground and wallowed,   
   foaming at the mouth.   
   21 He asked his father, "How long has it been since it came to him?"   
   He said, "From childhood.   
   22 (Mt 9:28) Often it has thrown him into the fire and into the water to kill   
   him. But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us."   
   23 (Mt 17:20; Jn 11:40) Jesus said,   
   "If you can believe, all things are possible   
   to him who believes."   
   24 (Lk 17:5; Eph 2:8) Immediately the father of the child   
   cried out with tears,   
   "Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief!"   
   25 (Mk 9:15) When Jesus saw that the people came running together, He rebuked   
   the foul spirit, saying to it, "You mute and deaf spirit, I command you,   
   come out of him, and enter him no more."   
   26 (Mk 9:20) The spirit cried out and convulsed him greatly.   
   But it came out of him, and he was as dead, so that many said, "He is dead."   
   27 (Mk 1:31) But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose.   
   28 (Mk 7:17) When He had entered the house, His disciples asked Him privately,   
   "Why could we not cast it out?"   
   29 He said to them, "This kind cannot come out except by prayer and fasting."   
      
   [14] And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them,   
   and the scribes questioning with them.   
   [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.   
   [27] But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.   
   [28] And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately,   
   Why could not we cast him out?   
   [29] And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by   
   prayer and fasting.   
      
   Matthew 17:14-21   
      
   The Healing of a Boy with a Demon   
   Mk 9:14-29; Lk 9:37-43   
      
   14 When they came to the crowd, a man came to Him   
   and knelt before Him, saying,   
   15 (Mt 4:24) "Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is an epileptic   
   and suffers terribly. He often falls into the fire and often into the water.   
   16 I brought him to Your disciples, but they could not heal him."   
   17 (Jn 20:27) Then Jesus answered, "O faithless and perverse generation,   
   how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you?   
   Bring him here to Me."   
   18 (Mt 9:22) Jesus rebuked the demon, and he came out of him.   
   And the child was healed instantly.   
   19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said,   
   "Why could we not cast him out?"   
   20 (Lk 17:6; Mt 13:31; 21:21) Jesus said to them, "Because of your unbelief.   
   For truly I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed,   
   you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move.   
   And nothing will be impossible for you.   
   21 (Mk 9:29) But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting."   
      
   [14] And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain   
   man, kneeling down to him, and saying,   
   [15] Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for   
   ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.   
   [16] And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.   
   [17] Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how   
   long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to   
   me.   
   [18] And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child   
   was cured from that very hour.   
   [19] Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast   
   him out?   
   [20] And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say   
   unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto   
   this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and   
   nothing shall be impossible unto you.   
   [21] Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.   
      
   Luke 9:37-43   
      
   The Healing of a Boy With an Unclean Spirit   
   Mt 17:14-18; Mk 9:14-27   
      
   37 The next day, when they came down from the mountain,   
   a great crowd met Him.   
   38 (Lk 7:12) Suddenly a man cried out from the crowd, saying,   
   "Teacher, I beg You, look upon my son, for he is my only child.   
   39 A spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out. It convulses him until   
   he foams at the mouth, and bruises him, and scarcely leaves him.   
   40 (Lk 9:1) I begged Your disciples to cast it out, but they could not."
