Luke 9:35-40 Good News Bible (GNB)

35. A voice said from the cloud, “This is my Son, whom I have chosen — listen to him!”

36. When the voice stopped, there was Jesus all alone. The disciples kept quiet about all this, and told no one at that time anything they had seen.

37. The next day Jesus and the three disciples went down from the hill, and a large crowd met Jesus.

38. A man shouted from the crowd, “Teacher! I beg you, look at my son — my only son!

39. A spirit attacks him with a sudden shout and throws him into a fit, so that he foams at the mouth; it keeps on hurting him and will hardly let him go!

40. I begged your disciples to drive it out, but they couldn't.”
