Mark 10:46-52
They came to Jericho. And as He was leaving Jericho with His disciples and a large crowd, Bartimaeus( the son of Timaeus), a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out,“ Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me!”Many people told him to keep quiet, but he was crying out all the more,“ Have mercy on me, Son of David!”Jesus stopped and said,“ Call him.” So they called the blind man and said to him,“ Have courage! Get up; He’s calling for you.”He threw off his coat, jumped up, and came to Jesus.Then Jesus answered him,“ What do you want Me to do for you?”“ Rabbouni,” the blind man told Him,“ I want to see!”“ Go your way,” Jesus told him.“ Your faith has healed you.” Immediately he could see and began to follow Him on the road.

Luke 18:35-43
As He drew near Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the road begging.Hearing a crowd passing by, he inquired what this meant.“ Jesus the Nazarene is passing by,” they told him.So he called out,“ Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”Then those in front told him to keep quiet, but he kept crying out all the more,“ Son of David, have mercy on me!”Jesus stopped and commanded that he be brought to Him. When he drew near, He asked him,“ What do you want Me to do for you?”“ Lord,” he said,“ I want to see!”“ Receive your sight!” Jesus told him.“ Your faith has healed you.”Instantly he could see, and he began to follow Him, glorifying God. All the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.

Matthew 9:27-31
As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed Him, shouting,“ Have mercy on us, Son of David!”When He entered the house, the blind men approached Him, and Jesus said to them,“ Do you believe that I can do this?”“ Yes, Lord,” they answered Him.Then He touched their eyes, saying,“ Let it be done for you according to your faith!”And their eyes were opened. Then Jesus warned them sternly,“ Be sure that no one finds out!”But they went out and spread the news about Him throughout that whole area.
