Healing Blind Bartimaeus

10:46 They came to Jericho.68 As Jesus69 and his disciples and a large crowd were leaving Jericho, Bartimaeus the son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road. 10:47 When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to shout,70 “Jesus, Son of David,71 have mercy72 on me!” 10:48 Many scolded73 him to get him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” 10:49 Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” So74 they called the blind man and said to him, “Have courage! Get up! He is calling you.” 10:50 He threw off his cloak, jumped up, and came to Jesus. 10:51 Then75 Jesus said to him,76 “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man replied, “Rabbi,77 let me see again.”78 10:52 Jesus said to him, “Go, your faith has healed you.” Immediately he regained79 his sight and followed him on the road.
