(35)And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come to him saying:
Teacher, we desire that thou shouldst do for us whatever we shall ask.
(36)And he said to them: What do ye desire that I should do for you?
(37)They said to him: Grant to us that we may sit, one on thy right
hand, and the other on the left, in thy glory. (38)And Jesus said to
them: Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink the cup that I
drink, or to endure the immersion which I endure? (39)And they said to
him: We are able. And Jesus said to them: Ye shall indeed drink the
cup that I drink, and endure the immersion which I endure. (40)But to
sit on my right hand, or on the left, is not mine to give, but is for
them for whom it has been prepared.
(41)And the ten, hearing it, began to be much displeased with James
and John. (42)And Jesus, calling them to him, says to them: Ye know

Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me. (48)And many rebuked him, that
he should hold his peace. But he cried all the more: Son of David,
have mercy on me. (49)And Jesus stood still, and said: Call him. And
they call the blind man, saying to him: Be of good cheer; rise, he
calls thee. (50)And he, casting away his garment, leaped up, and came
to Jesus. (51)And Jesus answering said to him: What wilt thou that I
should do to thee? The blind man said to him: Lord, that I may receive
sight. (52)And Jesus said to him: Go thy way; thy faith has made thee
whole. And immediately he received sight, and followed him in the way.
