Matthew 17:14-21


Jesus Casts Out a Demon

14 aAnd when they came to the crowd, a man came up to Jesus, falling on his knees before Him and saying,
15 “1Lord, have mercy on my son, for he has 2aseizures and suffers terribly; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water. 16 And I brought him to Your disciples, and they could not cure him.” 17 And Jesus answered and said, “O you unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him here to Me.” 18 And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon came out of him, and the boy was cured 1at once.
19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?”
20 And He *said to them, “Because of your little faith; for truly I say to you, aif you have faith 1the size of ba mustard seed, you will say to cthis mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and dnothing will be impossible to you. 21 1[aBut this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”]
