Jesus Heals a Blind Man

35 As Jesus drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the road begging. 36 When he heard a crowd going by, he asked what was happening. 37 They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. 38 So he cried out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” 39 Then those who were out in front rebuked him, telling him to be silent. But he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” 40 So Jesus stopped and ordered the man to be brought to him. When the man drew near, Jesus asked him, 41 “What do yoʋ want me to do for yoʋ?” He said, “Lord, I want to receive my sight.” 42 So Jesus said to him, “Receive yoʋr sight; yoʋr faith has healed yoʋ.” 43 Immediately he received his sight and began following Jesus, glorifying God. And when all the people saw it, they gave praise to God.
