| MATT. XVII.
14 And when they were
come to the multitude,
there came to him a
certain man, kneeling
down to him, and say-
ing,
15 Lord, have mercy
on my son: for he is
lunatick, and sore vexed:
for ofttimes he falleth
into the fire, and oft
into the water.
16And I brought him
to thy disciples, and
they could not cure
him.
17. Then Jesus answer-
ed and said, O faithless
and perverse generation,
how long shall I be with
you? how long shall I
suffer you? bring him
hither to me.
18 And Jesus rebuked
the devil; and he depart-
ed out of him: and the
child was cured from
that very hour.
19 Then came the dis-
ciples to Jesus apart,
and said, Why could not
we cast him out ?
20 And Jesus said unto
them, Because of your
unbelief: for verily I
say unto you, If ye have
faith as a grain of
mustard seed, ye shall
say unto this mountain,
Remove hence to yonder
place; and it shall re-
move; and nothing shall
be impossible unto you.
21 Howbeit this kind
goeth not out but by
prayer and fasting.

MARK IX.
14 And when he came to his disciples, he
saw a great multitude about them, and the
scribes questioning with them.
15 And straightway all the people, when they
beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running
to him saluted him.
16 And he asked the scribes, What question
ye with them?
17 And one of the multitude answered and
said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son,
which hath a dumb spirit;
18 And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth
him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his
teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy
disciples that they should cast him out; and
they could not.
19 He answereth him, and saith, O faithless
generation, how long shall I be with you? how
long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.
20 And they brought him unto him: and when
he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and
he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.
21 And he asked his father, How long is it ago
since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.
22 And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and
into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst
do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.
23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe,
all things are possible to him that believeth.
24 And straightway the father of the child cried
out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help
thou mine unbelief.
25. When Jesus saw that the people came run-
ning together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying
unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge
thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.
26 And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and
came out of him: and he was as one dead; inso-
much that many said, He is dead.
27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted
him up; and he arose.
28 And when he was come into the house, his
disciples asked him privately, Why could not
we cast him out?
29 And he said unto them, This kind can come
forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.

LUKE IX.
37 And it came to
pass, that on the next
day, when they were
come down from the
hill, much people met
him.
38.And, behold, a man
of the company cried
out, saying, Master,
I beseech thee, look
upon my son: for he
is mine only child.
39 And, lo, a spirit
taketh him, and he
suddenly crieth out;
and it teareth him
that he foameth again,
and bruising him hard-
ly departeth from him.
40 And I besought
thy disciples to cast
him out; and they
could not.
41 And Jesus answer-
ing said, O faithless
and perverse genera-
tion, how long shall
I be with you, and
suffer you? Bring thy
son hither.
42 And as he was
yet a coming, the
devil threw him down,
and tare him. And
Jesus rebuked the un-
clean spirit, and healed
the child, and deliver-
ed him again to his
father.
43 And they were
all amazed at the
mighty power of God.
But while they wonder-
ed every one at all
things which Jesus
did
