27And whosoeuer will be chiefe among you, let him be your seruant. 28Euen as the Sonne of man came not to be ministred vnto, but minister, and to giue his life a ransome for many. 29And as they departed from Hiericho, a great multitude followed him. 30¶ And behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Iesus passed by, cried out, saying, Haue mercie on vs, O Lord, thou sonne of Dauid. 31And the multitude rebuked them, because they should holde their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Haue mercie on vs, O Lord, thou sonne of Dauid.
