Mark 9:17-22

Sawyer(i) 17 And one of the multitude answered him, Teacher, I have brought my son to you, having a dumb spirit; 18 and wherever it takes him it convulses him, and he foams and grates his teeth, and becomes emaciated. And I spoke to your disciples to cast it out, and they could not. 19 And he answered and said to them, O faithless and perverse generation! How long shall I be with you? How long shall I suffer you? Bring him to me. 20 And they brought him to him. And seeing him, the spirit immediately affected him with convulsions, and he fell on the ground, and rolled about, foaming. 21 And he asked his father, How long a time is it since this came upon him? And he said, From a little child; 22 and it often casts him into fire, and into waters, to destroy him; but if you are able, help us, and have mercy on us.
