Mark 10:46–52
46They came to Jericho. As he went out from Jericho with his disciples and a great multitude, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.↗
47When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!”↗
48Many rebuked him, that he should be quiet, but he cried out much more, “You son of David, have mercy on me!”↗
49Jesus stood still and said,“Call him.” They called the blind man, saying to him, “Cheer up! Get up. He is calling you!”↗
50He, casting away his cloak, sprang up, and came to Jesus.↗
51Jesus asked him,“What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to him, “Rabboni, that I may see again.”↗
52Jesus said to him,“Go your way. Your faith has made you well.”Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the way.↗
