1<\/sup>AND Jesus passing by, saw a man, who was blind from his birth:<\/span> <\/p>\n 2<\/sup>And his disciples asked him: Rabbi, who hath sinned, this man, or his parents, that he should be born blind?<\/span> <\/p>\n 3<\/sup>Jesus answered: Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.<\/span> <\/p>\n 4<\/sup>I must work the works of him that sent me, whilst it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.<\/span> <\/p>\n 5<\/sup>As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.<\/span> <\/p>\n 6<\/sup>When he had said these things, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and spread the clay on his eyes,<\/span> <\/p>\n 7<\/sup>And said to him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloe, which is interpreted, Sent. He went therefore, and washed, and he came seeing.<\/span> <\/p>\n 8<\/sup>The neighbours therefore, and they who had seen him before that he was a beggar, said: Is not this he that sat and begged? Some said: This is he.<\/span> <\/p>\n 9<\/sup>But others said: No, but he is like him. But he said: I am he.<\/span> <\/p>\n 10<\/sup>They said therefore to him: How were thy eyes opened?<\/span> <\/p>\n 11<\/sup>He answered: That man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed my eyes, and said to me: Go to the pool of Siloe, and wash. And I went, I washed, and I see.<\/span> <\/p>\n 12<\/sup>And they said to him: Where is he? He saith: I know not.<\/span> <\/p>\n 13<\/sup>They bring him that had been blind to the Pharisees.<\/span> <\/p>\n 14<\/sup>Now it was the sabbath, when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.<\/span> <\/p>\n 15<\/sup>Again therefore the Pharisees asked him, how he had received his sight. But he said to them: He put clay upon my eyes, and I washed, and I see.<\/span> <\/p>\n 16<\/sup>Some therefore of the Pharisees said: This man is not of God, who keepeth not the sabbath. But others said: How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.<\/span> <\/p>\n 17<\/sup>They say therefore to the blind man again: What sayest thou of him that hath opened they eyes? And he said: He is a prophet.<\/span> <\/p>\n 18<\/sup>The Jews then did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight,<\/span> <\/p>\n 19<\/sup>And asked them, saying: Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then doth he now see?<\/span> <\/p>\n 20<\/sup>His parents answered them, and said: We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:<\/span> <\/p>\n 21<\/sup>But how he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: ask himself: he is of age, let him speak for himself.<\/span> <\/p>\n 22<\/sup>These things his parents said, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had already agreed among themselves, that if any man should confess him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.<\/span> <\/p>\n 23<\/sup>Therefore did his parents say: He is of age, ask himself.<\/span> <\/p>\n 24<\/sup>They therefore called the man again that had been blind, and said to him: Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.<\/span> <\/p>\n 25<\/sup>He said therefore to them: If he be a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see.<\/span> <\/p>\n 26<\/sup>They said then to him: What did he to thee? How did he open thy eyes?<\/span> <\/p>\n 27<\/sup>He answered them: I have told you already, and you have heard: why would you hear it again? will you also become his disciples?<\/span> <\/p>\n 28<\/sup>They reviled him therefore, and said: Be thou his disciple; but we are the disciples of Moses.<\/span> <\/p>\n 29<\/sup>We know that God spoke to Moses: but as to this man, we know not from whence he is.<\/span> <\/p>\n 30<\/sup>The man answered, and said to them: Why, herein is a wonderful thing, that you know not from whence he is, and he hath opened my eyes.<\/span> <\/p>\n 31<\/sup>Now we know that God doth not hear sinners: but if a man be a server of God, and doth his will, him he heareth.<\/span> <\/p>\n 32<\/sup>From the beginning of the world it hath not been heard, that any man hath opened the eyes of one born blind.<\/span> <\/p>\n 33<\/sup>Unless this man were of God, he could not do any thing.<\/span> <\/p>\n 34<\/sup>They answered, and said to him: Thou wast wholly born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.<\/span> <\/p>\n 35<\/sup>Jesus heard that they had cast him out: and when he had found him, he said to him: Dost thou believe in the Son of God?<\/span> <\/p>\n 36<\/sup>He answered, and said: Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?<\/span> <\/p>\n 37<\/sup>And Jesus said to him: Thou hast both seen him; and it is he that talketh with thee.<\/span> <\/p>\n 38<\/sup>And he said: I believe, Lord. And falling down, he adored him.<\/span> <\/p>\n 39<\/sup>And Jesus said: For judgment I am come into this world; that they who see not, may see; and they who see, may become blind.<\/span> <\/p>\n 40<\/sup>And some of the Pharisees, who were with him, heard: and they said unto him: Are we also blind?<\/span> <\/p>\n 41<\/sup>Jesus said to them: If you were blind, you should not have sin: but now you say: We see. Your sin remaineth.<\/span> <\/p>\n
