마태복음 17장 19-20절

그 때에 제자들이 따로 예수께 다가가서 물었다. "우리는 어찌하여 귀신을 쫓아내지 못했습니까?" 예수께서 그들에게 대답하셨다. "너희의 믿음이 적기 때문이다. 내가 진정으로 너희에게 말한다. 너희에게 겨자씨 한 알만한 믿음이라도 있으면, 이 산더러 '여기에서 저기로 옮겨가라!' 하면 그대로 될 것이요, 너희가 못할 일이 없을 것이다."_새번역성경

そのとき， 弟子たちはそっと イエス のもとに 来て， 言った． 「なぜ， 私たちには 悪霊を 追い 出せなかったのですか． 」イエス は 言われた． 「あなたがたの 信仰が 薄いからです． まことに， あなたがたに 告げます． もし， からし 種ほどの 信仰があったら， この 山に， 『ここからあそこに 移れ． 』と 言えば 移るのです． どんなことでも， あなたがたにできないことはありません．_ 新改訳

Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, "Why could we not drive it out?" And He said to them, "Because of the littleness of your faith; for truly I say to you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you. _NASB

When the disciples had Jesus off to themselves, they asked, “Why couldn’t we throw it out?” “Because you’re not yet taking God seriously,” said Jesus. “The simple truth is that if you had a mere kernel of faith, a poppy seed, say, you would tell this mountain, ‘Move!’ and it would move. There is nothing you wouldn’t be able to tackle.”_The Message
