Matthew 20:30 Context
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. 32And Iesus stood still, and called them, and saide, What will yee that I shall doe vnto you?
