Matthew 20:29-34
KJV—And as they departed from Jericho,
a great multitude followed him. And,
behold, two blind men sitting by the way
side, when they heard that Jesus passed
by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O
Lord, thou Son of David. And the multitude
rebuked them, because they should hold
their peace: but they cried the more, saying,
Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou Son
of David. And Jesus stood still, and called
them, and said, What will ye that I shall do
unto you? They say unto him, Lord, that
our eyes may be opened. So Jesus had
compassion on them, and touched their
eyes: and immediately their eyes received
sight, and they followed him.

Amp—And as they were going out of
Jericho, a great throng accompanied Him.
And behold, two blind men were sitting
by the roadside, and when they heard
that Jesus was passing by, they cried out,
Lord, have pity and mercy on us, [You] Son
of David! The crowds reproved them and
told them to keep still; but they cried out
the more, Lord, have pity and mercy on us,
[You] Son of David! And Jesus stopped and
called them, and asked, What do you want
Me to do for you? They answered Him,
Lord, we want our eyes to be opened!
And Jesus in pity touched their eyes, and
they received their sight and followed Him.

Moffatt—As they were leaving Jericho, a
crowd followed him, and when two blind
men who were sitting beside the road heard
Jesus was passing, they shouted, “O Lord,
Son of David, have pity on us!” The crowd
checked them and told them to be quiet,
but they shouted all the louder, “O Lord, Son
of David, have pity on us!” So Jesus stopped
and called them. He said, “What do you
want me to do for you?” “Lord,” they said,
“we want our eyes opened.” Then Jesus in
pity touched their eyes, and they regained
their sight at once and followed him.

NEB—As they were leaving Jericho he was
followed by a great crowd of people. At
the roadside sat two blind men. When they
heard it said that Jesus was passing they
shouted, ‘Have pity on us, Son of David.’
The people told them sharply to be quiet.
But they shouted all the more, ‘Sir, have
pity on us, have pity on us; Son of David.’
Jesus stopped and called the men. ‘What
do you want me to do for you?’ he asked.
‘Sir,’ they answered, ‘we want our sight.’ Jesus
was deeply moved, and touched their eyes.
At once their sight came back, and they
followed him.
