John 9:2-19
-
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?
