35 When he came near to Jericho, a blind man who sat by the way-side begging,
36 hearing the crowd pass by, inquired what was the matter.
37 And being told that Jesus the Nazarene was passing by,
38 he immediately cried, saying, Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me.
39 They who went before, charged him to be silent; but he cried the louder, saying, Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me.
40 Jesus stopped, and commanded them to bring the man to him. And when he was nigh, he asked him, saying,
41 What do you wish me to do for you? He answered, Master, to give me my sight.
42 And Jesus said to him, Receive your sight; your faith has cured you.
43 Instantly he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God; and all the people saw it, and praised God.
