16. He questioned them, “What are you arguing about with them?”
17. And a man from the crowd answered Him, “Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a spirit that makes him mute.
18. Whenever it seizes him, it throws him down; he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and becomes stiff. I told Your disciples to drive it out, but they couldn’t!”
19. And answering them, He said, “Oh faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him to Me.”
20. They brought the boy to Yeshua. When the spirit saw Him, immediately it threw the boy into a convulsion. The boy fell to the ground and began rolling around and foaming at the mouth.
21. Yeshua asked the father, “How long has this been happening to him?” “Since he was a child,” the man answered.
22. “It has often thrown him into fire or water to destroy him. But if You can do anything, have compassion and help us!”
23. “‘If You can’?” Yeshua said to him. “All things are possible for one who believes!”
24. Immediately the boy’s father cried out, “I believe! Help my unbelief!”
25. When Yeshua saw that a crowd was gathering fast, He rebuked the unclean spirit, telling it, “I command you, deaf and mute spirit, come out of him and do not ever enter him again!”
