*
And one of the crowd answered him , "
Teacher ,
I brought my son to you ,
for he has a dumb spirit ;
*
and wherever it seizes him ,
it dashes him down ;
and he foams and grinds his teeth and becomes rigid ;
and I asked your disciples to cast it out ,
and they were not able ."
*
And he answered them , "
O faithless generation ,
how long am I to be with you ?
How long am I to bear with you ?
Bring him to me ."
*
And they brought the boy to him ;
and when the spirit saw him ,
immediately it convulsed the boy ,
and he fell on the ground and rolled about ,
foaming at the mouth .
*
And Jesus asked his father , "
How long has he had this ?"
And he said , "
From childhood .
*
And it has often cast him into the fire and into the water ,
to destroy him ;
but if you can do anything ,
have pity on us and help us ."
*
And Jesus said to him , "
If you can !
All things are possible to him who believes ."
