ACV(i)
17 And having answered, one from the multitude said, Teacher, I brought my son to thee, who has a mute spirit.
18 And wherever it seizes him, it tears him, and he foams, and gnashes his teeth, and becomes limp. And I spoke to thy disciples that they might cast it out, and they were not able.
19 And having answered him, he says, O faithless generation, how long will I be with you? How long will I endure you? Bring him to me.
20 And they brought him to him. And when he saw him, straightaway the spirit convulsed him. And having fallen on the ground, he wallowed, foaming.
21 And he questioned his father, How much time is it since this has happened to him? And he said, From childhood.
22 And it often casts him both into the fire and into the waters so that it might destroy him. But if thou can do anything, help us, having compassion toward us.
