Mark 9:24 reads : PISTEUW, BOHQEI MOU THi APISTIAi. The NIV
translates this as "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief". The
NKJV reads: "Lord, I believe; help my unbelief." The passage looks to
me like it should be translated: I believe, help (me) in my
unbelief." I don't have a lexicon to determine whether BOHQEI takes a
genitive for a direct object (help me) or whether MOU is related to
THi APISTIAi (my unbelief). But in either case I can't see how the
above translations are supported.
I'm hoping to get the BAGD for my Accordance very soon which I hope
will help with this type of problem.
