^(C1)Now as ^(F1)(C2)Jesus was approaching Jericho, a man who was blind was sitting by the road, begging.

But when he heard a crowd going by, he began inquiring what this was.

They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.

And he called out, saying, "Jesus, ^(C1)Son of David, have mercy on me!"

Those who led the way were sternly telling him to be quiet; but he kept crying out all the more, "^(C1)Son of David, have mercy on me!"

And Jesus stopped and commanded that he be brought to Him; and when he came near, He asked him,

"What do you want Me to do for you?" And he said, "Lord, I want to regain my sight!"

And Jesus said to him, "Regain your sight; ^(C1)your faith has ^(F1)made you well."

And immediately he regained his sight and began following Him, ^(C1)glorifying God; and when ^(C2)all the people saw it, they gave praise to God.
