Matthew 9:29
27 As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!”
28 After Jesus had entered the house, the blind men came to Him. “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” He asked. “Yes, Lord,” they answered.
Then He touched their eyes and said, “According to your faith will it be done to you.”
30 And their eyes were opened. Jesus warned them sternly, “See that no one finds out about this!”
31 But they went out and spread the news about Him throughout the land.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
