And as
Jesus
passed by, he saw a man which was blind from
his
birth.
2
And his disciples asked
him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3
Jesus answered,
Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest
in him.
4
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no
man can work.
5
As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6
When he had thus
spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind
man with the clay,
7
And said unto him,
Go, wash in the pool of Siloam,
(which is by interpretation,
Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
8
The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not
this he that sat and begged?
9
Some said, This is he: others
said,
He is like him:
but
he said, I am
he.
10
Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?
11
He answered and said, A
man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me,
Go to the pool of
Siloam, and wash:
and I went and washed, and I received sight.
12
Then said they unto him, Where
is he? He said, I know not.
13
They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.
14
And it was the sabbath day
when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
15
Then again the Pharisees also asked him how
he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do
see.
16
Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the
sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division
among them.
17
They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened
thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.
18
But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had
been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.
19
And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now
see?
20
His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born
blind:
21
But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know
not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.
22
These
words
spake his parents, because
they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ,
he should be put out of the synagogue.
23
Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
24
Then
again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that
this man is a sinner.
25
He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner
or no,
I know not: one thing
I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
26
Then said they to him again, What did he to thee?
how opened he thine eyes?
27
He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear:
wherefore would ye hear
it
again? will ye also be his disciples?
28
Then they reviled him, and said,
Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses’ disciples.
29
We know that God spake unto Moses:
as for
this
fellow,
we know not from whence he is.
30
The man answered and said unto them, Why herein
is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and
yet
he hath opened mine eyes.
31
Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth
his will, him he heareth.
32
Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes
