nsb Mark:9:14-32

nsb@Mark:9:14 @ When they came to the disciples they saw a great crowd with them and scribes questioning them.

nsb@Mark:9:15 @ Suddenly the crowd saw him and ran to him to greet him.

nsb@Mark:9:16 @ He asked them: »What are you talking about?«

nsb@Mark:9:17 @ One of the people answered him: »Teacher I brought my son who is unable to talk because of a spirit.

nsb@Mark:9:18 @ »The spirit seizes him and slams him down. He foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth. I asked your disciples to cast it out but they could not do it.«

nsb@Mark:9:19 @ Jesus then said: »O faithless generation. How long will I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him to me.«

nsb@Mark:9:20 @ They brought the boy to him. Suddenly the spirit threw him into convulsions. He fell on the ground rolled around and foamed at the mouth.

nsb@Mark:9:21 @ Jesus asked his father: »How long has this been going on?« He said: »Since he was a child.«

nsb@Mark:9:22 @ Often it casts him into the fire and into the water to destroy him. If you can do anything have compassion on us and help us.

nsb@Mark:9:23 @ Jesus said to him: »All things are possible to him who has faith.«

nsb@Mark:9:24 @ Both father and child immediately shouted: »I have faith make my faith stronger.«

nsb@Mark:9:25 @ When Jesus saw the people he ordered the unclean spirit to come out of him. He commanded the spirit that caused the loss of voice and hearing to leave and never return to him.

nsb@Mark:9:26 @ The spirit cried out and shook the child violently. It came out and the child became like a dead person. Most of them said: »He is dead.«

nsb@Mark:9:27 @ Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up.

nsb@Mark:9:28 @ When the child went into the house his disciples asked him privately: »Why were we unable to send it out?«

nsb@Mark:9:29 @ He replied: Only prayer will make this sort come out.

nsb@Mark:9:30 @ He desired that no man know about it. Therefore they left there through Galilee.

nsb@Mark:9:31 @ He taught his disciples: »The Son of man will be handed over to men who will put him to death. After three days he will come back from the dead.«

nsb@Mark:9:32 @ They did not understand and they were afraid to ask him about it.
