<t /><p class="bodytext">Then they brought to him a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute. Jesus<n id="1" /> healed him so that he could speak and see.<n id="2" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">Now<n id="1" /> he was casting out a demon that was mute.<n id="2" /> When<n id="3" /> the demon had gone out, the man who had been mute began to speak,<n id="4" /> and the crowds were amazed.

<p class="bodytext">As<n id="1" /> they were going away,<n id="2" /> a man who could not talk and was demon-possessed was brought to him.

They brought to him a deaf man who had difficulty speaking, and they asked him to place his hands on him.

People were completely astounded and said, &#8220;He has done everything well. He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak.&#8221;p>

After the demon was cast out, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowds were amazed and said, &#8220;Never has anything like this been seen in Israel!&#8221;

The blind see, the<n id="1" /> lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have good news proclaimed to them.

As a result, the crowd was amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled healthy, the lame walking, and the blind seeing, and they praised the God of Israel.p>

Then<n id="1" /> large crowds came to him bringing with them the lame, blind, crippled, mute, and many others. They<n id="2" /> laid them at his feet, and he healed them.

<p class="bodytext">Now when Jesus saw that a crowd was quickly gathering, he rebuked<n id="1" /> the unclean spirit,<n id="2" /> saying to it, &#8220;Mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.&#8221;

When<n id="1" /> he came out, he was not able to speak to them. They<n id="2" /> realized that he had seen a vision<n id="3" /> in the holy place,<n id="4" /> because<n id="5" /> he was making signs to them and remained unable to speak.<n id="6" />

So<n id="1" /> he answered them,<n id="2" /> &#8220;Go tell<n id="3" /> John what you have seen and heard:<n id="4" /> The blind see, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the<n id="5" /> deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have good news proclaimed to them.
