But Jesus called them to Himself and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who are great exercise authority over them.
26
Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant.
27
And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave--
28
just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many."

Now as they went out of Jericho, a great multitude followed Him.
30
And behold, two blind men sitting by the road, when they heard that Jesus was passing by, cried out, saying, "Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David!"
31
Then the multitude warned them that they should be quiet; but they cried out all the more, saying, "Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David!"
32
So Jesus stood still and called them, and said, "What do you want Me to do for you?"
33
They said to Him, "Lord, that our eyes may be opened."
34
So Jesus had compassion and touched their eyes. And immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed Him.
