Lukas 18:35-41 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

35. And it came about while Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach drew near to Yericho, a certain ivver (blind man) was sitting beside the road begging.

36. And having heard a multitude traveling through, he was asking what this might be.

37. And they reported to him that Yehoshua from Natzeret is passing by.

38. And he cried out saying, Ben Dovid! Chaneni! (Have mercy on me!)

39. And the ones going past him were rebuking him that he should be silent, but he just so much the more was crying out, Ben Dovid, chaneni!

40. And stopping, Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach commanded the ivver to be led to him. Having drawn near, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach asked him, What do you wish that I may do for you?

41. And he said, Adoni, that I may regain my sight.
