Luke 9:37-41 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

37. The next day Jesus and those who were with him came down from the mountain. A large crowd met Jesus.

38. A man in the crowd called out. "Teacher," he said, "I beg you to look at my son. He is my only child.

39. A spirit takes hold of him, and he suddenly screams. It throws him into fits so that he foams at the mouth. It hardly ever leaves him. It is destroying him.

40. I begged your disciples to drive it out. But they couldn't do it."

41. "You unbelieving and evil people!" Jesus replied. "How long do I have to stay with you? How long do I have to put up with you?" Then he said to the man, "Bring your son here."
