Mark:9:17-27
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And one of the multitude answered him ,
Teacher ,
I have brought to thee my son ,
who hath a dumb spirit .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
And he asked his father ,
How long hath it been thus with him ?
And he said ,
From a child ;
*
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 .
*
Jesus said to him ,
If thou art able ?
All things are possible for him that believeth .
*
The father of the child immediately cried out and said ,
I believe ;
help thou my unbelief .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
But Jesus ,
taking hold of his hand ,
raised him ,
and he stood up .
