And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, {Thou} Son of David, have mercy on us.

And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord.

Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.

And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See {that} no man know {it}.

But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.
