Luke 18:35-42

Living Bible

³⁵ As they approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting beside the road, begging from travelers. ³⁶ When he heard the noise of a crowd going past, he asked what was happening. ³⁷ He was told that Jesus from Nazareth was going by, ³⁸ so he began shouting, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”

³⁹ The crowds ahead of Jesus tried to hush the man, but he only yelled the louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”

⁴⁰ When Jesus arrived at the spot, he stopped. “Bring the blind man over here,” he said. ⁴¹ Then Jesus asked the man, “What do you want?”

“Lord,” he pleaded, “I want to see!”

⁴² And Jesus said, “All right, begin seeing! Your faith has healed you.”
