35 And it came to pass, that as he had come nigh to Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging;

36 And hearing the multitude passing by, he asked what it meant.

37 And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.

38 And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.

39 And they who went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.

40 And Jesus stood and commanded him to be brought to him: and when he had come near, he asked him,

41 Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do to thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.

42 And Jesus said to him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.

43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.
