46 And they came to Jericho. And as He was going out from Jericho along with His disciples and a large crowd, Bartimaeus the blind man, the son of Timaeus, was sitting alongside the road begging.
47 And when he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me!"
48 And many rebuked him, that he should be silent. But he cried out all the more, "Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me!"
49 And having stopped, Jesus asked for him to be called. Then they called the blind man, saying to him, "Have courage, rise up; He is calling you."
50 And casting away his garment, he rose up and came to Jesus.
51 So Jesus answered and said to him, "What do you desire [that ]I should do for you?"And the blind man said to Him, "Rabboni, that I may receive sight."
52 Then Jesus said to him, "Go; your faith has healed you."And immediately he received sight, and he followed Jesus on the road.
