Luke 18:35-41

New International Version

A Blind Beggar Receives His Sight^(A)

³⁵ As Jesus approached Jericho,^(B) a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. ³⁶ When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening. ³⁷ They told him, “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.”^(C)

³⁸ He called out, “Jesus, Son of David,^(D) have mercy^(E) on me!”

³⁹ Those who led the way rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”^(F)

⁴⁰ Jesus stopped and ordered the man to be brought to him. When he came near, Jesus asked him, ⁴¹ “What do you want me to do for you?”

“Lord, I want to see,” he replied.
