Mark 9:9-19

9 1As they were coming down from the mountain, He 2gave them orders not to relate to anyone what they had seen, until * * the Son of Man rose from the dead.
10 They seized upon that statement, discussing with one another what rising from the dead meant.
11 They asked Him, saying, "Why is it that the scribes say that 3Elijah must come first?"
12 And He said to them, "Elijah does first come and restore all things. And yet how is it written of 4the Son of Man that 5He will suffer many things and be treated with contempt?
13 "But I say to you that Elijah has indeed come, and they did to him whatever they wished, just as it is written of him."

All Things Possible

14 6When they came back to the disciples, they saw a large crowd around them, and some scribes arguing with them.
15 Immediately, when the entire crowd saw Him, they were 7amazed and began running up to greet Him.
16 And He asked them, "What are you discussing with them?"
17 And one of the crowd answered Him, "Teacher, I brought You my son, possessed with a spirit which makes him mute;
18 and whenever it seizes him, it slams him to the ground and he foams at the mouth, and grinds his teeth and stiffens out. I told Your disciples to cast it out, and they could not do it."
19 And He answered them and said, "O unbelieving generation, how long * shall I be with you? How long * shall I put up with you? Bring him to Me!"
