43 But it shall not be so with you: but whosoever will be great among you let him be your servant: 44 and whosoever will be first, let him be the servant of all. 45 For the Son of man came not to be waited upon, but to be a servant, and to give his life a ransom for many. 46 And they came to Jericho. And as he was going out of Jericho with his disciples, and a great multitude, Bartimeus, the blind, the son of Timeus, sat by the road-side begging: 47 and hearing that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by, he began to cry out, and say, O Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me! 48 And many chid him, that he should be silent: but he cried out so much the more, Son of David, have mercy on me! 49 And Jesus stood still, and ordered him to be called: and they call the blind man, saying to him, Cheer up, arise; he calleth thee. 50 Then casting off his cloak, he arose, and came to Jesus. 51 And Jesus addressing him, said, What dost thou wish that I should do for thee? And the blind man said to him, Rabboni, that I may receive my sight! 52 Then said Jesus unto him, Go thy way: thy faith hath saved thee. And immediately he received sight, and followed Jesus in the road. Mark 10:43-52, Haweis New Testament. Public domain.
