Mark 9:14-29

14And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them. 15And immediately all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him greeted him. 16And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?1 17And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought to thee my son, who hath a dumb spirit; 18And wherever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spoke to thy disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not.2 19He answered him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him to me. 20And they brought him to him: and when he saw him, immediately the spirit tore him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming. 21And he asked his father, How long is it since this came to him? And he said, From a child. 22And often it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us. 23Jesus said to him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. 24And immediately the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou my unbelief. 25When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying to him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him. 26And the spirit cried, and tore him violently, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; so that many said, He is dead. 27But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. 28And when he had come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out? 29And he said to them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
