Now
as Jesus
was
passing
by, He saw a man blind from birth ,
As he
passed
by, he saw a man blind from birth .
and
His disciples asked Him, “
Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind? ”
His disciples asked him, "
Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind? "
Jesus answered, “
Neither this man nor his parents sinned,
but this
happened
so
that the works of God would
be displayed
in him.
Jesus answered, "
Neither did
this man sin,
nor his parents ;
but ,
that the works of God might
be revealed
in him.
While
it
is
daytime,
we
must do
the works of Him who sent Me. Night is coming, when no one can work.
I
must work
the works of him who sent me ,
while
it
is
day
. The
night is coming, when no one can work.
While I am in the world, I am the light of the world. ”
While I am in the world, I am the light of the world. "
When Jesus
had said this, He spit
on the ground, made some
mud, and
applied
it
to
the man’s
eyes .
When he
had said this, he spat
on the ground, made mud with
the
saliva
, anointed
the blind
man's
eyes with
the
mud,
Then
He
told
him, “
Go, wash in the Pool of Siloam ”
(which means “
Sent ”
). So the
man
went and
washed, and came back seeing.
and
said
to
him, "
Go, wash in the pool of Siloam "
(which means "
Sent "
). So he
went away,
washed, and came back seeing.
At
this,
his
neighbors and those who had
formerly
seen
him
begging
began
to
ask
, “Isn’t
this the
man
who used
to
sit
and beg
? ”
The
neighbors therefore,
and those who saw
that
he
was
blind
before
, said,
"Isn't
this he
who sat
and begged
? "
Some
claimed
that
he
was,
but
others said
, “No
, he just
looks like him. ”
But
the
man
kept
saying
, “
I am the
one
. ”
Others were
saying
, "It
is
he."
Still
others
were
saying
, "
He looks like him. "
He
said
, "
I am he
. "
“
How then
were your eyes opened? ”
they
asked.
They
therefore
were
asking
him,
"
How were your eyes opened? "
He answered, “The
man they
call
Jesus made some
mud and
anointed my eyes, and He
told
me
to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed and received my
sight. ”
He answered, "A
man called
Jesus made mud ,
anointed my eyes, and said
to me,
'
Go to the
pool
of
Siloam ,
and wash. '
So I went away
and washed ,
and I
received sight. "
“
Where is He? ”
they
asked.
“
I do
not
know ,”
he
answered
.
Then
they
asked
him,
"
Where is he? "
He
said,
"
I don't
know. "
They brought to
the
Pharisees
the
man
who had been blind.
They brought him
who had been blind to
the
Pharisees
.
Now
the
day
on
which
Jesus had
made the mud and opened his eyes was
a
Sabbath
.
It
was
a
Sabbath
when
Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.
So
the Pharisees also asked him how he had
received his sight. The
man
answered
, “
He put mud on my eyes, and
I washed, and now
I can
see. ”
Again
therefore
the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. He
said
to
them
, "
He put mud on my eyes, I washed, and I see. "
Because
of
this,
some of the Pharisees said, “
This man is not from God, for
He does
not
keep the Sabbath. ”
But
others said, “
How can a sinful
man perform
such signs? ”
And
there was division among them.
Some therefore
of the Pharisees said, "
This man is not from God, because
he doesn't
keep the Sabbath. "
Others said, "
How can a man who
is
a
sinner
do
such signs? "
There was division among them.
So
once
again
they asked the man
who
had
been
blind, “
What do you say about Him, since
it
was
your
eyes
He opened? ”
“
He is a prophet ,”
the
man
replied
.
Therefore
they asked the blind man
again
, "
What do you say about him, because
he opened your
eyes
? "
He said,
"He
is a prophet. "
The Jews still
did not believe that the
man
had been blind and had received his sight until they summoned
his
parents
The Jews therefore
did not believe concerning
him,
that he
had been blind ,
and had received his sight ,
until they called
the
parents of
him
who
had
received
his
sight,
and asked, “
Is this your son, the
one
you say was born blind? So
how is
it
that
he can
now see? ”
and asked them
, "
Is this your son, who
you say was born blind? How then
does
he now see? "
His parents answered, “
We know he
is our son, and we
know
he was born blind .
His parents answered them
, "
We know that
this
is our son, and that
he was born blind ;
But how he can
now see
or who opened his eyes, we do
not
know. Ask him. He is
old
enough
to
speak for himself. ”
but how he now sees,
we
don't
know;
or who opened his eyes, we don't
know. He
is
of
age.
Ask him. He will
speak for himself. "
His parents said this
because they were
afraid
of
the Jews .
For the Jews had already determined
that anyone
who
confessed
Jesus
as the
Christ would be put out of the synagogue.
His parents said these
things
because they feared
the Jews ;
for the Jews had already agreed
that if
any
man
would
confess
him
as Christ ,
he
would be put out of the synagogue.
That
was
why
his parents said, “
He is old
enough
. Ask him. ”
Therefore
his parents said, "
He is of
age
. Ask him. "
So a
second
time
they called for
the man who had
been
blind and said, “
Give glory to God !
We know that this man is a sinner. ”
So they called the man who was
blind a
second
time,
and said to
him
, "
Give glory to God .
We know that this man is a sinner. "
He answered, “Whether
He is a sinner I
do
not
know
. There
is
one thing I do know: I was blind, but
now I see !”
He therefore
answered, "I
don't
know
if
he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that
though
I was blind, now I see ."
“
What did He do to you? ”
they
asked.
“
How did He open your eyes? ”
They
said
to
him
again,
"
What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes? "
He replied
, “
I already
told you, and you did
not
listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do
you also want to become His disciples? ”
He answered
them
, "
I told you already
, and you didn't
listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don't
also want to become his disciples ,
do
you
? "
Then
they heaped
insults
on
him and said, “
You are His disciple ;
we are disciples of Moses.
They insulted
him and said, "
You are his disciple ,
but
we are disciples of Moses.
We know that God spoke
to Moses ,
but we do
not
know where this
man
is
from. ”
We know that God has
spoken
to Moses .
But as
for
this
man,
we don't
know where he
comes
from. "
“That
is
remarkable
indeed!”
the man said.
“
You do
not
know where He is
from, and
yet He opened my eyes.
The man answered
them,
"How
amazing!
You don't
know where he comes
from, yet he opened my eyes.
We know that God does
not
listen to sinners, but He
does
listen
to
the
one
who
worships
Him
and does His will.
We know that God doesn't
listen to sinners, but if
anyone
is
a
worshipper
of
God,
and does his will ,
he
listens
to
him
.
Never
before
has anyone
heard of opening
the eyes of a
man
born blind.
Since
the
world
began
it
has never
been
heard of that
anyone
opened
the eyes of someone
born blind.
If this man were not from God, He could do no
such
thing
. ”
If this man were not from God, he could do nothing
. "
They replied
, “
You were born in utter
sin
, and you are
instructing
us? ”
And
they threw him out.
They answered
him
, "
You were altogether
born in sins
, and do
you teach
us? "
They threw him out.
When
Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, He
found
the
man
and said, “
Do you believe in the Son of Man
? ”
Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding
him,
he
said, "
Do you believe in the Son of God
? "
“
Who is He, Sir?”
he
replied.
“Tell
me
so
that I may believe in Him .”
He
answered,
"
Who is he, Lord,
that I may believe in him ?"
“
You have already
seen Him, ”
Jesus
answered.
“He
is the
One
speaking
with you. ”
Jesus
said
to
him,
"
You have both
seen him, and
it
is he
who
speaks
with you. "
“
Lord, I believe ,”
he
said.
And he worshiped Jesus
.
He
said,
"
Lord, I believe !"
and he worshiped him
.
Then
Jesus declared
, “For
judgment
I have
come
into this world, so
that the
blind
may see and those who see may become blind. ”
Jesus said
, "
I came
into this world for
judgment
, that those
who
don't
see
may see ;
and that
those who see may become blind. "
Some
of the Pharisees who were with Him heard this
, and they
asked
Him, “
Are we blind too
? ”
Those
of the Pharisees who were with him heard these
things
, and said
to
him, "
Are we also
blind? "
“
If you were blind, ”
Jesus
replied,
“
you would not
be
guilty
of
sin .
But since
you
claim
you can
see
, your guilt
remains. ”
Jesus
said
to
them,
"
If you were blind, you would have
no
sin ;
but now
you say
, 'We
see.'
Therefore
your sin
remains.
