33

35
And it came to pass that as He was coming nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the wayside begging.
36

37
And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.
38
And he cried, saying, "Jesus, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me!"

41
saying, "What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee?" And he said, "Lord, that I may receive my sight."
42
And Jesus said unto him, "Receive thy sight; thy faith hath saved thee."
