26 And after crying out and shaking him violently, it came out: and the child became like one dead; so that most of them said, He is dead.
And they took him to him: and when he saw him, the spirit in him straight away became violent; and he went down on the earth, rolling about and streaming at the lips.
For from the time when I came to Pharaoh to put your words before him, he has done evil to this people, and you have given them no help.
And wherever it takes him, it puts him down violently, streaming at the lips and twisted with pain; and his strength goes from him; and I made a request to your disciples to send it out, and they were not able.

Mar 9:30-40
Here,
Mar 9:41-50
