Mark 9:21-31

21 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said , Of a child.

22 And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.

23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe , all things are possible to him that believeth .

24 And straightway the father of the child cried out , and said with tears, Lord, I believe ; help thou mine unbelief.

25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together , he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

26 And the spirit cried , and rent him sore, and came out of him : and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said , He is dead .

27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up ; and he arose .

28 And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately *, Why could not we cast him out ?

29 And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.

30 And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it.

31 For he taught his disciples, and said unto them *, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed , he shall rise the third day.
