Mark 9:27 in other versions

Context of Mark 9:27

25Jesus saw that the crowd of people was quickly becoming bigger. So he told the bad spirit to stop. Jesus said to it, ‘Spirit, I am telling you that you must leave this boy. He cannot hear or speak because of you. I tell you to come out of him! You must never go into him again.’ 26The spirit screamed. It caused the boy's body to shake many times. Then it came out of him. The boy seemed to be dead, so many people said, ‘He is dead.’ But Jesus held the boy's hand and he helped the boy to stand up. 28Jesus went into a house and the disciples were alone with him. Then they asked him, ‘Why could we not cause the bad spirit to leave the boy?’ 29Jesus said to them, ‘You must pray. This kind of spirit will not leave a person unless you pray.’
