Mark:10:46-52
wmth@Mark:10:46 @ They came to Jericho; and as He was leaving that town –Himself and His disciples and a great crowd– Bartimaeus (the son of Timaeus), a blind beggar, was sitting by the way-side.
wmth@Mark:10:47 @ Hearing that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, »Son of David, Jesus, have pity on me.«
wmth@Mark:10:48 @ Many angrily told him to leave off shouting; but he only cried out all the louder, »Son of David, have pity on me.«
wmth@Mark:10:49 @ Then Jesus stood still. »Call him,« He said. So they called the blind man. »Cheer up,« they said; »rise, he is calling you.«
wmth@Mark:10:50 @ The man flung away his outer garment, sprang to his feet, and came to Jesus.
wmth@Mark:10:51 @ »What shall I do for you?« said Jesus. »Rabboni,« replied the blind man, »let me recover my sight.«
wmth@Mark:10:52 @ »Go,« said Jesus, »your faith has cured you.« Instantly he regained his sight, and followed Him along the road.
