  • 9:18 Whenever it takes hold of him, it dashes him to the ground, and he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and goes stiff. I asked your disciples to throw it out, but they did not have the strength." 2
  • 9:21 Jesus asked the boy's father, "Since when has this been happening to him?" He answered, "Since he was a small child. 2
  • 9:25 When Jesus saw that a crowd was quickly gathering, he gave the unclean spirit a stern order: "You mute and deaf spirit, I command you to come out of him and never go into him again!" 2

  • 9:37 "Whoever welcomes a child like this one in my name is welcoming me. And whoever welcomes me is welcoming, not me, but the One who sent me." 2
