24
When the 10 [disciples] heard this, they became indignant with the two brothers.
25
But Jesus called them over and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles dominate them, and the men of high position exercise power over them.
26
It must not be like that among you. On the contrary, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,
27
and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave;
28
just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life-a ransom for many."
Two Blind Men Healed
29 As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed Him.
30
There were two blind men sitting by the road. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they cried out, "Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!"
31
The crowd told them to keep quiet, but they cried out all the more, "Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!"
32
Jesus stopped, called them, and said, "What do you want Me to do for you?"
33
"Lord," they said to Him, "open our eyes!"
34
Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes. Immediately they could see, and they followed Him.
