Mark 10:46-52 - A Blind Man Healed At Jericho

Mark 10:46-52

46 And they came to Jericho: and as he went out ofJericho, with his disciples and a great number of people, Bartimaeus the son of Timaeus, which was blind, sat by the highways side begging. 47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry and to say, "Jesus, the son of David, have mercy on me." 48 And many rebuked him, that he should hold his peace. But he cried the more a great deal, "Thou son of David have mercy on me."

49 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called: and they called the blind, saying unto him, "Be of good comfort, rise, he called thee." 50 And he threw away his cloak, and rose and came to Jesus:

51 And Jesus answered, and said unto him, "What wilt thou that I do unto thee?" The blind said unto him, "Master, that I might see."

52 Jesus said unto him, "Go thy way, thy faith hath saved thee." And by and by he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.

Luke 18:35-43

35 And it came to pass, as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging. 36 And when he heard the people pass by, he asked what it meant. 37 And they said unto him that Jesus of Nazareth, passed by.

38 And he cried, saying, "Jesus the son of David, have thou mercy on me." 39 And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace. But he much the more so cried, "Thou son of David, have mercy on me."

40 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him, to be brought unto him. And when he was come near, he asked him, 41 saying, "What wilt thou, that I do unto thee?" And he said, "Lord, that I may receive my sight."

42 Jesus said unto him, "Receive thy sight: Thy faith hath saved thee." 43 And immediately he saw, and followed him, praising God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave laud to God.
