Revised Common Lectionary (Complementary)

³⁵ And it came to pass, as he came near to Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the wayside, begging. ³⁶ And when he heard the people pass by, he asked what it meant. ³⁷ And they said to him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. ³⁸ And he called out, saying, Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me! ³⁹ And the people who were in front admonished him to hold his peace. But he cried all the more, Son of David, have mercy on me!

⁴⁰ And Jesus stood still, and directed him to be brought to him. And when he had come near, Jesus asked him, saying, ⁴¹ What do you want me to do for you? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight! ⁴² Jesus said to him, Receive your sight; your faith has saved you. ⁴³ And immediately he saw, and followed him, praising God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave laud to God.
