Luke 18:35-43

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

A Blind Man Begs Mercy From The Messiah, And Receives His Sight

³⁵ And it came about during His drawing-near to Jericho, that a certain blind one was sitting beside the road, begging. ³⁶ And having heard a crowd proceeding through, he was inquiring as to what this might be. ³⁷ And they reported to him that “Jesus the Nazarene is passing by”. ³⁸ And he shouted, saying, “Jesus, Son of David, have-mercy-on me!” ³⁹ And the ones preceding Him were rebuking him in order that he might be silent. But he was crying out by much more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” ⁴⁰ And having stood [still], Jesus ordered that he be brought to Him. And he having drawn near, He asked him, ⁴¹ “What do you want Me to do for you?” ⁴² And the one said, “Master— that I may see-again!” And Jesus said to him, “See-again! Your faith has restored you”. ⁴³ And at once he saw-again. And he was following Him, glorifying God. And all the people, having seen it, gave praise to God.
