35 As Jesus drew near to Jericho, there was a blind man who sat by the wayside begging.
36 He heard the crowd passing and asked what the matter was.
37 They told him, "Jesus of Nazareth is passing by."
38 Then he shouted out, saying, "Jesus, son of David, take pity on me!"
39 Those who went ahead began to reprove him and to tell him to be still; but he kept clamorously shouting all the more, "Son of David, take pity on me!"
40 So Jesus stopped and ordered him to be brought to him. When he was come near to him he asked him
41 "What do you want me to do for you?" "Lord," he answered, "that I might see again."
42 "Receive your sight," said Jesus, "your faith has saved you."
43 Instantly he regained his sight and followed Jesus, giving glory to God; and all the people who saw it gave praise to God.
