The two ways
1:1 Happy the man who never follows the advice of the wicked, or loiters on the way that sinners take, or sits about with scoffers,
1:2 but finds his pleasure in the Law of Yahweh, and murmurs his law day and night.
1:3 He is like a tree that is planted by water streams, yielding its fruit in season, its leaves never fading;
1:4 It is nothing like this with the wicked, nothing like this! No, these are like chaff blown away by the wind.
1:5 The wicked will not stand firm when Judgement comes, nor sinners when the virtuous assemble.
1:6 For Yahweh takes care of the way the virtuous go, but the way of the wicked is doomed.
Gospel : Lk 18, 35-43
Entering Jericho: the blind man
18:35 Now as he drew near to Jericho there was a blind man sitting at the side of the road begging.
18:36 When he heard the crowd going past he asked what it was all about,
18:37 and they told him that Jesus the Nazarene was passing by.
18:38 So he called out, ‘Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me’.
18:39 The people in front scolded him and told him to keep quiet, but he shouted all the louder, ‘Son of David, have pity on me’.
18:40 Jesus stopped and ordered them to bring the man to him, and when he came up, asked him,
18:41 ‘What do you want me to do for you?’ ‘Sir,’ he replied ‘let me see again.’
18:42 Jesus said to him, ‘Receive your sight. Your faith has saved you.’
18:43 And instantly his sight returned and he followed him praising God, and all the people who saw it gave praise to God for what had happened.
