14 When they approached the people, a man fell to his knees before him, saying:
15 »Lord, have mercy on my son. He has mental problems and is in great pain. He frequently falls into the fire and into the water.
16 »I took him to your disciples, and they were not able to make him well.«
17 Jesus answered: »You unbelieving and perverted generation, how long will I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him to me.«
18 Jesus ordered the unclean spirit to leave the boy. It left him and the boy was made well immediately.
