Matthew 17:13-18 English Standard Version (ESV)

13. Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them of John the Baptist.

14. And when they came to the crowd, a man came up to him and, kneeling before him,

15. said, “Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is an epileptic and he suffers terribly. For often he falls into the fire, and often into the water.

16. And I brought him to your disciples, and they could not heal him.”

17. And Jesus answered, “O faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him here to me.”

18. And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him, and the boy was healed instantly.
