Matthew 17:8-21 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

8. Lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, except Yeshua alone.

9. As they were coming down from the mountain, Yeshua commanded them, saying, “Don’t tell anyone what you saw, until the Son of Man has risen from the dead.”

10. His disciples asked him, saying, “Then why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”

11. Yeshua answered them, “Elijah indeed comes first, and will restore all things,

12. but I tell you that Elijah has come already, and they didn’t recognize him, but did to him whatever they wanted to. Even so the Son of Man will also suffer by them.”

13. Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of Yochanan the Immerser.

14. When they came to the multitude, a man came to him, kneeling down to him, and saying,

15. “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is epileptic, and suffers grievously; for he often falls into the fire, and often into the water.

16. So I brought him to your disciples, and they could not cure him.”

17. Yeshua answered, “Faithless and perverse generation! How long will I be with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him here to me.”

18. Yeshua rebuked him, the demon went out of him, and the boy was cured from that hour.

19. Then the disciples came to Yeshua privately, and said, “Why weren’t we able to cast it out?”

20. He said to them, “Because of your unbelief. For most certainly I tell you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.

21. But this kind doesn’t go out except by prayer and fasting.”
