Jesus Heals Blind Bartimaeus

46 Then they came to Jericho. Now as Jesus was going out from Jericho, along with his disciples and a large crowd, [fn]the blind man Bartimaeus, son of Timaeus, [fn]was sitting by the road begging. 47 When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, “Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me!” 48 Many people began rebuking him, telling him to be silent, but he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” 49 Then Jesus stopped and [fn]asked for him to be called over. So they called out to the blind man and said to him, “Take courage and get up; he is calling for yoʋ.” 50 Throwing off his cloak, he [fn]rose and came to Jesus. 51 Then Jesus said to him, “What do yoʋ want me to do for yoʋ?” The blind man said to him, “Rabboni, I want to receive my sight.” 52 Jesus said to him, “Go; yoʋr faith has healed yoʋ.” Immediately he received his sight and began following Jesus on the road.
