Luke 18:26-36

26 Those who heard this asked, "Then who can be saved?"
27 He replied, "What is impossible with men is possible with God."
28 Then Peter said, "Look, we have left what we had and followed You."
29 So He said to them, "I assure you: There is no one who has left a house, wife or brothers, parents or children because of the kingdom of God,
30 who will not receive many times more at this time, and eternal life in the age to come."

The Third Prediction of His Death

31 Then He took the Twelve aside and told them, "Listen! We are going up to Jerusalem. Everything that is written through the prophets about the Son of Man will be accomplished.
32 For He will be handed over to the Gentiles, and He will be mocked, insulted, spit on;
33 and after they flog Him, they will kill Him, and He will rise on the third day."
34 They understood none of these things. This saying[a] was hidden from them, and they did not grasp what was said.

A Blind Man Receives His Sight

35 As He drew near Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the road begging.
36 Hearing a crowd passing by, he inquired what this meant.
