Mark:9:14-32
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And when they came to the disciples ,
they saw a great multitude about them ,
and scribes questioning with them .
*
And right away all the multitude ,
when they saw him ,
were greatly amazed ,
and running to him greeted him .
*
And he asked them ,
What do you (

note )
question with them ?
*
And one of the multitude answered him ,
Teacher ,
I brought to you my son ,
who has a mute spirit ;
*
and wherever it takes him ,
it dashes him down :
and he foams ,
and grinds his teeth ,
and becomes stiff :
and I spoke to your disciples that they should cast it out ;
and they were not able .
*
And he answers them and says ,
O faithless generation ,
how long shall I be with you (
note :){+}(:
note )?
How long shall I bear with you {+}?
Bring him to me .
*
And they brought him to him :
and when he saw him ,
immediately the spirit tore him grievously ;
and he fell on the ground ,
and wallowed foaming .
*
And he asked his father ,
How much time is it since this has come to him ?
And he said ,
From a child .
*
And often it has cast him both into the fire and into the waters ,
to destroy him :
but if you can do anything ,
have compassion on us ,
and help us .
*
And Jesus said to him ,
If you can !
All things are possible to him who believes .
*
Immediately the father of the child cried out ,
and said ,
I believe ;
help my unbelief .
*
And 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 enter into him no more .
*
And having cried out ,
and torn him much ,
he came out :
and [
the boy ]
became as one dead ;
insomuch that most said ,
He is dead .
*
But Jesus took him by the hand ,
and raised him up ;
and he arose .
*
And when he came into the house ,
his disciples asked him privately , [
How is it ]
that we could not cast it out ?
*
And he said to them ,
This kind can come out by nothing ,
except by prayer .
*
And they went forth from there ,
and passed through Galilee ;
and he did not want that any man should know it .
*
For he taught his disciples ,
and said to them ,
The Son of Man is delivered up into the hands of men ,
and they will kill him ;
and when he is killed ,
after three days he will rise again .
*
But they didn '
t understand the saying ,
and were afraid to ask him .
