Mark 9:9-29
91As they were comingG2597 downG2597 from the mountainG3735, He 2gaveG1291 them ordersG1291 not to relateG1334 to anyoneG3367 whatG3739 they had seenG3708, 3untilG1487G3361G3752 the SonG5207 of ManG444 roseG450 from the deadG3498. 10They 4seizedG2902 upon 5that statementG3056, discussingG4802 with oneG1438 anotherG1438 6whatG5101 risingG450 from the deadG3498 meantG1510. 11They askedG1905 Him, sayingG3004, “Why is it that the scribesG1122 sayG3004 that 7ElijahG2243 mustG1163 comeG2064 firstG4413?” 12And He saidG5346 to them, “ElijahG2243 does firstG4413 comeG2064 and restoreG600 allG3956 thingsG3956. And yet howG4459 is it writtenG1125 of 8the SonG5207 of ManG444 that 9He will sufferG3958 manyG4183 thingsG4183 and be treatedG1847 with contemptG1847? 13But I sayG3004 to you that ElijahG2243 has 10indeedG2532 comeG2064, and they didG4160 to him whateverG3745 they wishedG2309, justG2531 as it is writtenG1125 of him.”
1411When they cameG2064 back to the disciplesG3101, they sawG3708 a largeG4183 crowdG3793 aroundG4012 them, and some scribesG1122 arguingG4802 with them. 15ImmediatelyG2117, when the entireG3956 crowdG3793 sawG3708 Him, they were 12amazedG1568 and began runningG4370 up to greetG782 Him. 16And He askedG1905 them, “WhatG5101 are you discussingG4802 with them?” 17And oneG1520 of the crowdG3793 answeredG611 Him, “TeacherG1320, I broughtG5342 You my sonG5207, possessedG2192 with a spiritG4151 which makes him muteG216; 18and 13wheneverG3699 it seizesG2638 him, it 14slamsG4486 him to the ground and he foamsG875 at the mouth, and grindsG5149 his teethG3599 and 15stiffensG3583 out. I toldG3004 Your disciplesG3101 to castG1544 it out, and they couldG2480 not do it.” 19And He answeredG611 them and saidG3004, “OG5599 unbelievingG571 generationG1074, howG2193 longG2193G4219 shall I be with you? HowG2193 longG2193G4219 shall I putG430 up with you? BringG5342 him to Me!” 20They broughtG5342 16the boy to Him. WhenG2532 he sawG3708 Him, immediatelyG2117 the spiritG4151 threwG4952 him into a convulsionG4952, and fallingG4098 to the groundG1093, he began rollingG2947 aroundG2947 and foamingG875 at the mouth. 21And He askedG1905 his fatherG3962, “HowG4214 longG5550 has thisG3778 beenG1510 happeningG1096 to him?” And he saidG3004, “From childhoodG3812. 22It has oftenG4178 thrownG906 him bothG2532 into the fireG4442 and into the waterG5204 to destroyG622 him. But ifG1487 You canG1410 do anythingG5100, takeG4697 pityG4697 on us and helpG997 us!” 23And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “‘IfG1487 You canG1410?’ 17AllG3956 thingsG3956 are possibleG1415 to him who believesG4100.” 24ImmediatelyG2117 the boy’sG3813 fatherG3962 criedG2896 out and saidG3004, “I do believeG4100; helpG997 my unbeliefG570.” 25When JesusG2424 sawG3708 that 18a crowdG3793 was 19rapidlyG1998 gatheringG1998, He rebukedG2008 the uncleanG169 spiritG4151, sayingG3004 to it, “You deafG2974 and muteG216 spiritG4151, I 20commandG2004 you, comeG1831 out of him and do not enterG1525 him 21againG3371.” 26After cryingG2896 out and throwingG4682 him into terribleG4183 convulsionsG4682, it cameG1831 out; and the boy becameG1096 so muchG5616 likeG5616 a corpseG3498 that mostG4183 of them saidG3004, “He is deadG599!” 27But JesusG2424 tookG2902 him by the handG5495 and raisedG1453 him; and he gotG450 up. 28When He cameG1525 22into the houseG3624, His disciplesG3101 began questioningG1905 Him privatelyG2596G2398, “WhyG3739G5101 couldG1410 we not driveG1544 it out?” 29And He saidG3004 to them, “ThisG3778 kindG1085 cannotG1410G3762 comeG1831 out by anythingG3762 but prayerG4335.”
