Matthew 17:16-20
English Standard Version
16 And I brought him to your disciples, and (A)they could not heal him.” 17 And Jesus answered, “O faithless and (B)twisted generation, how long am I to be with you? (C)How long am I to bear with you? Bring him here to me.” 18 And Jesus (D)rebuked the demon,[a] and it[b] came out of him, and (E)the boy was healed instantly.[c] 19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why could we not cast it out?” 20 He said to them, (F)“Because of your little faith. For (G)truly, I say to you, (H)if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, (I)you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and (J)nothing will be impossible for you.”[d]
