As Jesus went on his way two blind men followed him shouting, ‘Take pity on us, son of David.’ And when Jesus reached the house the blind men came up to him and he said to them, ‘Do you believe I can do this?’ They said, ‘Lord, we do.’ Then he touched their eyes saying, ‘According to your faith, let it be done to you.’ And their sight returned. Then Jesus sternly warned them, ‘Take care that no one learns about this.’ But when they had gone away, they talked about him all over the countryside.
The Saint of the day: St Ambrose, Bishop and Doctor of the Church
Waqt li Ġesù kien għaddej minn hemm marru warajh żewġ għomja jgħajjtu u jgħidu: “Bin David, ħenn għalina !” Meta mbagħad daħal id-dar, l-għomja resqu lejh u Ġesù qalilhom: “Temmnu intom li jien nista’ nagħmlu dan?” Qalulu: “Iva, Mulej.” Mbagħad messilhom għajnejhom u qal: “Mela ħa jsirilkom skond il-fidi tagħkom.” U għajnejhom infetħulhom. Ġesù widdibhom bis-sħiħ u qalilhom: “Qisu li ħadd ma jsir jaf b’dan.” Iżda dawk ħarġu u bdew ixerrdu l-fama tiegħu ma’ dak il-pajjiż kollu.
