13. But I say unto you, That Elijah has indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they desired, as it is written of him.
14. And when he came to his disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them.
15. And immediately all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed, and running to him greeted him.
16. And he asked the scribes,
17. And one of the multitude answered and said, Teacher, I have brought unto you my son, who has a dumb spirit;
18. And wherever he takes him, he throws him down: and he foams, and gnashes with his teeth, and wastes away: and I spoke to your disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not.
19. He answered him, and said,
20. And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, immediately the spirit convulsed him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.
21. And he asked his father,
22. And often it has cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if you can do anything, have compassion on us, and help us.
