27 Jesus|strong="G3004" said|strong="G3004", “\+w What|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w is|strong="G1510"\+w* impossible \+w with|strong="G3844"\+w* \+w men|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w is|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w possible|strong="G1415"\+w* \+w with|strong="G3844"\+w* \+w God|strong="G2316"\+w*.”
28 Then|strong="G1161" Peter|strong="G4074" said|strong="G3004", “Behold|strong="G2400", we|strong="G2249" have|strong="G1473" left everything and|strong="G1161" followed yoʋ.”
29 Jesus|strong="G3004" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G3004" them|strong="G3588", “\+w Truly|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w I|strong="G3739"\+w* \+w say|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w to|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w you|strong="G5210"\+w*, \+w there|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w is|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w no|strong="G3762"\+w* \+w one|strong="G3762"\+w* \+w who|strong="G3739"\+w* \+w has|strong="G2316"\+w* left \+w house|strong="G3614"\+w*, \+w parents|strong="G1118"\+w*, brothers, \+w wife|strong="G1135"\+w*, \+w or|strong="G2228"\+w* \+w children|strong="G5043"\+w*, \+w for|strong="G1752"\+w* \+w the|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w sake|strong="G1752"\+w* \+w of|strong="G2316"\+w* \+w the|strong="G1161"\+w* kingdom \+w of|strong="G2316"\+w* \+w God|strong="G2316"\+w*,

31 Then|strong="G2532" Jesus|strong="G3004" took|strong="G3880" the|strong="G2532" twelve|strong="G1427" aside|strong="G3880" and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G1519" them|strong="G3588", “\+w Behold|strong="G2400"\+w*, \+w we|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w are|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w going|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w up|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w to|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w Jerusalem|strong="G2419"\+w*, \+w and|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w everything|strong="G3956"\+w* \+w written|strong="G1125"\+w* \+w by|strong="G1223"\+w* \+w the|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w prophets|strong="G4396"\+w* \+w about|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w the|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w Son|strong="G5207"\+w* \+w of|strong="G5207"\+w* \+w Man|strong="G3956"\+w* \+w will|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w be|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w fulfilled|strong="G5055"\+w*.

34 But|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" disciples|strong="G1510" did|strong="G2532" not|strong="G3756" understand|strong="G4920" any|strong="G3762" of|strong="G2532" these|strong="G3778" things|strong="G3778"; this|strong="G3778" statement|strong="G4487" was|strong="G1510" hidden|strong="G2928" from|strong="G2532" them|strong="G3588", and|strong="G2532" they|strong="G2532" did|strong="G2532" not|strong="G3756" comprehend|strong="G1097" what|strong="G3588" was|strong="G1510" being|strong="G1510" said|strong="G3004".
35 As|strong="G1519" Jesus|strong="G1448" drew|strong="G1161" near|strong="G1448" to|strong="G1519" Jericho|strong="G2410", a|strong="G1096" blind|strong="G5185" man|strong="G5100" was|strong="G1096" sitting|strong="G2521" by|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" road|strong="G3598" begging|strong="G1871".
36 When|strong="G1161" he|strong="G1161" heard a|strong="G1510" crowd|strong="G3793" going|strong="G3778" by|strong="G1510", he|strong="G1161" asked|strong="G4441" what|strong="G5101" was|strong="G1510" happening.
37 They|strong="G1161" told him|strong="G3588" that|strong="G3754" Jesus|strong="G2424" of|strong="G2424" Nazareth|strong="G3480" was|strong="G3588" passing|strong="G3928" by|strong="G2424".
38 So|strong="G2532" he|strong="G2532" cried|strong="G2532" out|strong="G2532", “Jesus|strong="G2424", Son|strong="G5207" of|strong="G5207" David|strong="G1138", have|strong="G2532" mercy|strong="G1653" on|strong="G1653" me|strong="G1473"!”
39 Then|strong="G2532" those|strong="G3588" who|strong="G3588" were|strong="G3588" out|strong="G2896" in|strong="G2532" front|strong="G4254" rebuked|strong="G2008" him|strong="G3588", telling|strong="G2008" him|strong="G3588" to|strong="G2443" be|strong="G2532" silent|strong="G4601". But|strong="G1161" he|strong="G2532" cried|strong="G2896" out|strong="G2896" all|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" more|strong="G3123", “Son|strong="G5207" of|strong="G5207" David|strong="G1138", have|strong="G2532" mercy|strong="G1653" on|strong="G1653" me|strong="G1473"!”
40 So|strong="G1161" Jesus|strong="G2424" stopped|strong="G2476" and|strong="G1161" ordered|strong="G2753" the|strong="G1161" man to|strong="G4314" be|strong="G3588" brought|strong="G1161" to|strong="G4314" him|strong="G3588". When|strong="G1161" the|strong="G1161" man drew|strong="G1161" near|strong="G1448", Jesus|strong="G2424" asked|strong="G1905" him|strong="G3588",
41 “\+w What|strong="G5101"\+w* \+w do|strong="G4160"\+w* yoʋ \+w want|strong="G2309"\+w* \+w me|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w to|strong="G2443"\+w* \+w do|strong="G4160"\+w* \+w for|strong="G1161"\+w* yoʋ?” He|strong="G1161" said|strong="G3004", “Lord|strong="G2962", I|strong="G1161" want|strong="G2309" to|strong="G2443" receive my|strong="G4160" sight|strong="G3588".”
42 So|strong="G2532" Jesus|strong="G2424" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G2532" him|strong="G3588", “\+w Receive|strong="G4102"\+w* yoʋr \+w sight|strong="G3588"\+w*; yoʋr \+w faith|strong="G4102"\+w* \+w has|strong="G4102"\+w* \+w healed|strong="G4982"\+w* yoʋ.”
43 Immediately|strong="G3916" he|strong="G2532" received his|strong="G3956" sight|strong="G3588" and|strong="G2532" began following Jesus|strong="G2532", glorifying|strong="G1392" God|strong="G2316". And|strong="G2532" when|strong="G2532" all|strong="G3956" the|strong="G2532" people|strong="G2992" saw|strong="G3708" it|strong="G2532", they|strong="G2532" gave|strong="G1325" praise|strong="G1392" to|strong="G2532" God|strong="G2316".
