Mark 9:23-38
-
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 running 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; insomuch 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.
-
30 And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know it.
-
31 For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day.
-
32 But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.
-
33 And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?
-
34 But they held their peace: for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who should be the greatest.
-
35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.
-
36 And he took a child, and set him in the midst of them: and when he had taken him in his arms, he said unto them,
-
37 Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.
-
38 And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us.
