Markus 9:20-22

9:20 So they brought the boy ¹  to him. When the spirit saw him, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He ²  fell on the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth. 9:21 Jesus ³  asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood. 9:22 It has often thrown him into fire or water to destroy him. But if you are able to do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”

[9:20]  ¹ tn Grk “him.”

[9:20]  ² tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[9:21]  ³ tn Grk “He”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
