³⁸ A man in the crowd ·shouted [cried out] to him, “Teacher, ·please [^LI beg you to] come and look at my son, because he is my only child. ³⁹ [^LAnd look/^Tbehold] ·An evil spirit [^LA spirit] seizes my son, and suddenly ·he [or it] screams. It causes him to ·lose control of himself [have convulsions] and foam at the mouth. The evil spirit ·keeps on hurting [batters; mauls] him and almost never leaves him. ⁴⁰ I begged your ·followers [disciples] to ·force [drive; cast] the evil spirit out, but they could not do it.”
