## Matthew 17:16 in Context (Verses 13–19 KJV)
 
 [13 ](/kjv/matthew/17/13) Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.
 
 [14 ](/kjv/matthew/17/14) ¶ And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a *certain* man, kneeling down to him, and saying,
 
 [15 ](/kjv/matthew/17/15) Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/matthew/17/16) And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/matthew/17/17) Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/matthew/17/18) And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/matthew/17/19) Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
