Mark 9:24-26

J.B. Phillips New Testament

²⁴ “I do believe,” the boy’s father burst out. “Help me to believe more!”

²⁵ When Jesus noticed that a crowd was rapidly gathering, he spoke sharply to the evil spirit, with the words, “I command you, deaf and dumb spirit, come out of this boy, and never go into him again!”

²⁶ The spirit gave a loud scream and after a dreadful convulsion left him. The boy lay there like a corpse, so that most of the bystanders said, “He is dead.”
