Matthew 17:12-18

New American Standard Bible

¹² but I say to you that Elijah already came, and they did not recognize him, but did ^[a]to him whatever they wanted. So also ^(A)the Son of Man is going to suffer ^[b]at their hands.” ¹³ Then the disciples understood that He had spoken to them about John the Baptist.

The Demon-possessed Boy

^14 (B)When they came to the crowd, a man came up to ^[c]Jesus, falling on his knees before Him and saying, ¹⁵ “^[d]Lord, have mercy on my son, because he ^(C)has seizures and suffers terribly; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water. ¹⁶ And I brought him to Your disciples, and they could not cure him.” ¹⁷ And Jesus answered and said, “You unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him here to Me.” ¹⁸ And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon came out of him, and the boy was healed ^[e]at once.
