15 “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is¹ an epileptic and suffers severely; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water.

16 So I brought him to Your disciples, but they could not cure him.”

17 Then Jesus answered and said, “O¹ faithless and ^aperverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to Me.”

18 And Jesus ^arebuked the demon, and it came out of him; and the child was cured from that very hour.

19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?”
