Mark:9:17-27
lont@Mark:9:17 @ One of the people answering, said, Rabbi, I have brought you my son, who has a dumb spirit;
lont@Mark:9:18 @ and wheresoever it seizes him, it dashes him on the ground, where he continues foaming, and grinding his teeth, till his strength is exhausted. And I spoke to your disciples to expel the demon, but they were not able.
lont@Mark:9:19 @ Jesus then said,
lont@Mark:9:20 @ Accordingly they brought him: and no sooner did he see him, than the spirit threw him into convulsions, so that he foamed, and rolled upon the ground.
lont@Mark:9:21 @ Jesus asked the father, He answered, From his infancy;
lont@Mark:9:22 @ and often it has thrown him both into the fire, and into the water, to destroy him; but if you can do anything, have compassion upon us and help us.
lont@Mark:9:23 @ Jesus replied,
lont@Mark:9:24 @ The boy's father, crying out immediately, said with tears, I believe; Master, supply the defects of my faith.
lont@Mark:9:25 @ When Jesus saw that the people came crowding upon him, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him,
lont@Mark:9:26 @ Then, having cried aloud and severely convulsed him, it came out, and he appeared as one dead, insomuch that many said, He is dead.
lont@Mark:9:27 @ But Jesus taking him by the hand, raised him, and he stood up.
