46 And they come to Jericho. And as he went out from Jericho, and his disciples and a considerable crowd, Bartimaeus, the blind son of Timaeus, was sitting by the road begging.
47 And when he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, Jesus, thou son of David, be merciful to me.
48 And many rebuked him, that he would be quiet, but he cried out much more, Thou son of David, be merciful to me.
49 And having stood still, Jesus said for him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying to him, Cheer up. Arise, he calls thee.
50 And he, having thrown off his garment, having risen, came to Jesus.
51 And having answered, Jesus says to him, What do thou wish I would do for thee? And the blind man said to him, Rabboni, that I may receive my sight.
52 And Jesus said to him, Go thou, thy faith has healed thee. And straightaway he received his sight, and followed him on the way.
