Lukas 18:41-42

18:41 “What do you want me to do for you?” He replied, ¹  “Lord, let me see again.” ²  18:42 Jesus ³  said to him, “Receive ⁴  your sight; your faith has healed you.” ⁵ 

[18:41]  ¹ tn Grk “said.”

[18:41]  ² tn Grk “Lord, that I may see [again].” The phrase can be rendered as an imperative of request, “Please, give me sight.” Since the man is not noted as having been blind from birth (as the man in John 9 was) it is likely the request is to receive back the sight he once had.

[18:42]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[18:42]  ⁴ tn Or “Regain” (see the note on the phrase “let me see again” in the previous verse).

[18:42]  ⁵ tn Grk “has saved you,” but in a nonsoteriological sense; the man has been delivered from his disability.
