Mark 10:46-48

New Testament for Everyone

Jesus heals a blind beggar

⁴⁶ They came to Jericho. As Jesus, his disciples and a substantial crowd were leaving the town, a blind beggar named Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the road. ⁴⁷ When he heard it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout out: “Son of David! Jesus! Take pity on me!”

⁴⁸ Lots of people told him crossly to be quiet. But he shouted out all the louder, “Son of David—take pity on me!”
