Luke 18:35-43 ▼

35 As Jesus approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the road begging.

36 When he heard a crowd going by, he asked what was going on.

37 They told him, |Jesus the Nazarene is passing by.|

38 So he called out, |Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!|

39 And those who were in front scolded him to get him to be quiet, but he shouted even more, |Son of David, have mercy on me!|

40 So Jesus stopped and ordered the beggar to be brought to him. When the man came near, Jesus asked him,

41 What do you want me to do for you?| He replied, |Lord, let me see again.|

42 Jesus said to him, |Receive your sight; your faith has healed you.|

43 And immediately he regained his sight and followed Jesus, praising God. When all the people saw it, they too gave praise to God.
