In this verse the first and fourth occurrences of the pronoun him refer to the man’s “son”, who was possessed by a mute spirit and was mentioned in Mark 9:17. If it would be helpful in your language, consider clarifying this in your translation in a way that would be natural in your language. Alternate translation: “And they brought the man’s son to Jesus, and having seen him, the spirit immediately shook the boy with convulsions”
