Mark 9:10–18

¹⁰They kept this saying to themselves, questioning what the “rising from the dead” meant.↗

¹¹They asked him, saying, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”↗

¹²He said to them,“Elijah indeed comes first, and restores all things. How is it written about the Son of Man, that he should suffer many things and be despised?↗

¹³But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they have also done to him whatever they wanted to, even as it is written about him.”↗

¹⁴Coming to the disciples, he saw a great multitude around them, and scribes questioning them.↗

¹⁵Immediately all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to him, greeted him.↗

¹⁶He asked the scribes,“What are you asking them?”↗

¹⁷One of the multitude answered, “Teacher, I brought to you my son, who has a mute spirit;↗

¹⁸and wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; and he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth, and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they weren’t able.”↗
