Mark 9:29 - And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
Fasting is omitted from this verse in the corrupted Greek text and the modern English Bible versions. See note here at Matthew 17:21. The modern versions remove almost all references to fasting in the New Testament.
Mark 9:50 - Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
Quote also given in Matthew and Luke at different times of Christ's ministry, but the last sentence of verse 50 is unique to Mark in this situation. It answers to the apostles' disputing among themselves who should be the greatest, vv. 33-34.
