Luke 18:28-38

28 But Peter said, Lo! we have left all things, and have followed thee [and follow thee].
29 And he said to him, Truly I say to you, there is no man that shall forsake house, or father and mother, or brethren, or wife, or children, or fields, for the realm of God,
30 and shall not receive many more things in this time, and in the world to coming everlasting life [and in the world to come everlasting life].
31 And Jesus took his twelve disciples, and said to them, Lo! we go up to Jerusalem, and all things shall be ended, that be written by the prophets of man's Son.
32 For he shall be betrayed to heathen men, and he shall be scorned, and scourged, and bespat;
33 and after that they have scourged him, they shall slay him, and the third day he shall rise again.
34 And they understood nothing of these; and this word was hid from them, and they understood not those things that were said.
35 But it was done, when Jesus came nigh to Jericho, a blind man sat beside the way, and begged [some blind man sat beside the way begging].
36 And when he heard the people passing [And when he heard the company of people passing], he asked, what this was.
37 And they said to him, that Jesus of Nazareth passed.
38 And he cried, and said [saying], Jesus, the son of David, have mercy on me.
