ABU(i)
17 And one of the multitude answered him: Teacher, I brought to thee my son, having a dumb spirit.
18 And wherever it lays hold of him, it tears him, and he foams, and gnashes his teeth, and he pines away. And I spoke to thy disciples, that they should cast it out; and they could not.
19 And he answering, says to them: O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to me.
20 And they brought him to him. And seeing him, straightway the spirit rent him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.
21 And he asked his father: How long is it, since this came upon him? And he said: From a child.
22 And ofttimes it cast him both into the fire, and into the water, to destroy him. But if thou art able to do anything, have compassion on us, and help us.
