Matthew 17:17

Mark 9:19

9:19 He answered them, ⁷  “You ⁸  unbelieving ⁹  generation! How much longer ¹⁰  must I be with you? How much longer must I endure ¹¹  you? ¹²  Bring him to me.”

[17:17]  ¹ tn Grk “And answering, Jesus said.” This is somewhat redundant and has been simplified in the translation.

[17:17]  ³ tn Or “faithless.”

[17:17]  ⁴ tn Grk “how long.”
