A Demon-possessed Boy Healed

37Now it happened that on the next day, when* they had come down from the mountain, a large crowd met him. 38And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, saying, “Teacher, I beg you to look with concern on my son, because he is my only son! 39And behold, a spirit seizes him and suddenly he screams, and it convulses him with foam and rarely withdraws from him, battering him severely. 40And I begged your disciples that they would expel it, and they were not able to do so.” 41So Jesus answered and* said, “O unbelieving and perverted generation! How longe will I be with you and put up with you? Bring your son here!” 42And while* he was still approaching, the demon threw him down and convulsed him.* But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father. 43And they were all astounded at the impressiveness of God.

Jesus Predicts His Suffering

But while they* were all marveling at all the things that he was doing, he said to his disciples, 44“You take these words to heart,f for the Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men.” 45But they did not understand this statement, and it was concealed from them so that they could not understand it. And they were afraid to ask him about this statement.
