him ˱it˲_/may/_grasp
Here, the phrase seize him refers to when the demon forces a person to do something. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [it might begin to control him] or [it might force him to do something]
Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

When people are having convulsions, they can have trouble breathing or swallowing. This causes white foam to form around their mouths. If your readers would not be familiar with this symptom, you could use the name of something similar in your area or you could use a more general term. Alternate translation: [foam comes out of his mouth] or [he cannot swallow properly]
ξηραίνεται
/is_being/_paralyzed
Alternate translation: [his body stiffens up] or [he cannot move]

Here, the word and introduces what the disciples were not able to do in contrast to what the man wanted them to do. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a word or phrase that introduces this kind of contrast. Alternate translation: [but]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
οὐκ ἴσχυσαν
not ˱they˲_prevailed
The man is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from earlier in the sentence if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [they were not able to cast it out]
9:18 These symptoms are often associated with epilepsy (see Matt 17:15), but Mark emphasizes the demonic origin of the child’s problem (Mark 9:17-18, 25-26, 28). The disciples’ inability to heal the child magnifies the effect of Jesus’ power (9:25-26).
