Matthew 17:14-21 (New Living Translation)
14
When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, a huge crowd was waiting for them. A man came and knelt before Jesus and said,
15
"Lord, have mercy on my son, because he has seizures and suffers terribly. He often falls into the fire or into the water.
16
So I brought him to your disciples, but they couldn't heal him."
17
Jesus replied, "You stubborn, faithless people! How long must I be with you until you believe? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy to me."
18
Then Jesus rebuked the demon in the boy, and it left him. From that moment the boy was well.
19
Afterward the disciples asked Jesus privately, "Why couldn't we cast out that demon?"
20
"You didn't have enough faith," Jesus told them. "I assure you, even if you had faith as small as a mustard seed you could say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it would move. Nothing would be impossible." a
