Amplified Bible

Matthew 20:27-34 Amplified Bible (AMP)

27. And whoever desires to be first among you must be your slave–

28. Just as the Son of Man came not to be waited on but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many [the price paid to set them free].

29. And as they were going out of Jericho, a great throng accompanied Him.

30. 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!

31. The crowds reproved them and told them to keep still; but they cried out all the more, Lord, have pity and mercy on us, [You] Son of David!

32. And Jesus stopped and called them, and asked, What do you want Me to do for you?

33. They answered Him, Lord, we want our eyes to be opened!

34. And Jesus, in pity, touched their eyes; and instantly they received their sight and followed Him.
