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

Mark 10:46-52

46 Then they came to Jericho. And as He was leaving Jericho, with His disciples and a great crowd, Timeus' son, Bartimeus, a blind beggar, was sitting on the roadside. 47 When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout, "Jesus, you son of David, do pity me!" 48 Many of the people began to rebuke him and to tell him to keep quiet, but all the louder he kept shouting, "You son of David, do pity me!"

49 So Jesus stopped and said, "Tell him to come here." Then they told the blind man, saying, "Cheer up! Get up! He is calling for you." 50 He threw off his coat and jumped up and went to Jesus.

51 Then Jesus asked him, "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man answered, "Good Teacher, I want to see again."

52 Then Jesus said to him, "Go; your faith has cured you." And all at once he could see again, and began to follow Jesus along the road.

Luke 18:35-43

35 As He was approaching Jericho, a blind man chanced to be sitting by the roadside begging. 36 As he heard a crowd going by, he asked what it meant. 37 They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was coming by.

38 Then he cried out, "Jesus, you Son of David, do pity me!" 39 But those who were marching in front reproved him and told him to keep quiet, but he cried out all the louder, "O Son of David, do pity me!"

40 Then Jesus stopped and ordered him to be brought to Him. And when he approached Jesus, He said to him, 41 "What do you want me to do for you?" He answered, "Lord, I want to see again!"

42 Then Jesus said to him, "See again! Your faith has cured you." 43 So at once he saw again, and began to follow Him, giving thanks to God. And all the people saw it and gave praise to God.
