Luke 9:36-44 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

36. And after the voice had occurred, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.

37. Now it happened that on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a large crowd met him.

38. And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, saying, “Teacher, I beg you to look with concern on my son, because he is my only son!

39. And behold, a spirit seizes him and suddenly he screams, and it convulses him with foam and rarely withdraws from him, battering him severely.

40. And I begged your disciples that they would expel it, and they were not able to do so.”

41. So Jesus answered and said, “O unbelieving and perverted generation! How long will I be with you and put up with you? Bring your son here!”

42. And while he was still approaching, the demon threw him down and convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

43. And they were all astounded at the impressiveness of God. But while they were all marveling at all the things that he was doing, he said to his disciples,

44. “You take these words to heart, for the Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men.”
