35 And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, a“This is My beloved Son. bHear Him!”
36 When the voice had ceased, Jesus was found alone. aBut they kept quiet, and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen.
A Boy Is Healed
37 aNow it happened on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a great multitude met Him.
38 Suddenly a man from the multitude cried out, saying, “Teacher, I implore You, look on my son, for he is my only child.
39 And behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out; it convulses him so that he foams at the mouth; and it departs from him with great difficulty, bruising him.
40 So I implored Your disciples to cast it out, but they could not.”
41 Then Jesus answered and said, “O1 faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and2 bear with you? Bring your son here.”
42 And as he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him. Then Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the child, and gave him back to his father.
Jesus Again Predicts His Death
43 And they were all amazed at the majesty of God. But while everyone marveled at all the things which Jesus did, He said to His disciples,
44 a“Let these words sink down into your ears, for the Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men.”
45 aBut they did not understand this saying, and it was hidden from them so that they did not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask Him about this saying.
