9 And Jesus passing, saw a man blind from the birth.

² And his disciples asked him, Master, who sinned, this man, or his elders [And his disciples asked him, Rabbi, that is, Master, who sinned, this man, or his father and mother], that he should be born blind?

³ Jesus answered, Neither this man sinned, neither his elders [neither his father and mother]; but that the works of God be showed in him.

⁴ It behooveth me to work the works of him that sent me, as long as the day is [the while the day is]; the night shall come, when no man may work.

⁵ As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

⁶ When he had said these things, he spat into the earth, and made clay of the spittle, and anointed the clay on his eyes,

⁷ and said to him, Go, and be thou washed in the water of Siloam, that is to say, Sent. Then he went, and washed, and came seeing. [and said to him, Go, and be thou washen in the water, or cistern, of Siloam, that is interpreted, Sent. Therefore he went, and washed, and came seeing.]

⁸ And so neighbours, and they that had seen him before, for he was a beggar, said, Whether this is not he, that sat, and begged?

⁹ Other men said, That this it is; and other men said, Nay, but he is like him. But he said, I am [he].

¹⁰ Therefore they said to him, How be thine eyes opened?

¹¹ He answered, That man, that is said Jesus, made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said to me, Go thou to the water of Siloam, and wash [Go thou to the water, or cistern, of Siloam, and wash]; and I went, and washed, and saw.

¹² And they said to him, Where is he? He said, I know not.

¹³ They led him that was blind to the Pharisees.

¹⁴ And it was sabbath, when Jesus made clay, and opened his eyes.

¹⁵ Again the Pharisees asked him, how he had seen. And he said to them, He laid to me clay on the eyes [He put to me clay on the eyes]; and I washed, and I see.

¹⁶ Therefore some of the Pharisees said, This man is not of God, that keepeth not the sabbath. Other men said, How may a sinful man do these signs. And strife was among them. [Therefore some of the Pharisees said, This man is not of God, for he keepeth not the sabbath. Other men said, How may a man sinner do these signs, or miracles? And division was among them.]

¹⁷ Therefore they said again to the blind man [Therefore they say again to the blind man], What sayest thou of him, that opened thine eyes? And he said, That he is a prophet.

¹⁸ Therefore the Jews believed not of him, that he was blind, and had seen, till they called his father and mother, that had seen.

¹⁹ And they asked them, and said, Is this your son, which ye say was born blind [And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, whom ye say, for he is born blind]? how then seeth he now?

²⁰ His father and mother answered to them, and said, We know, that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

²¹ but how he seeth now, we know not, or who opened his eyes, we know not; ask ye him, he hath age, speak he of himself.

²² His father and mother said these things, for they dreaded the Jews; for then the Jews had conspired [forsooth now the Jews had conspired], that if any man acknowledged him Christ, he should be done out of the synagogue.

²³ Therefore his father and mother said, That he hath age, ask ye him.

²⁴ Therefore again they called the man, that was blind, and said to him, Give thou glory to God; we know, that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ Then he said, If he is a sinner, I know not; one thing I know, that when I was blind, now I see.

²⁶ Therefore they said to him, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

²⁷ He answered to them, I said to you now, and ye heard; what will ye again hear? whether [and] ye will be made his disciples?

²⁸ Therefore they cursed him, and said, Be thou his disciple; we be [the] disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know, that God spake to Moses; but we know not this, of whence he is.

³⁰ That man answered, and said to them, For in this is a wonderful thing, that ye know not, of whence he is, and he hath opened mine eyes.

³¹ And we know, that God heareth not sinful men, but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, he heareth him. [Soothly we know, for God heareth not sinners, but if any man is worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.]

³² From the world it is not heard, that any man opened the eyes of a blind-born man;

³³ but this man were of God, he might not do any thing.

³⁴ They answered, and said to him, Thou art all born in sins, and teachest thou us? And they put him out. [They answered, and said to him, Thou art all born in sins, and thou teachest us? And they cast him out.]

³⁵ Jesus heard, that they had put him out [Jesus heard, for they had cast him out]; and when he had found him, he said to him, Believest thou in the Son of God?

³⁶ He answered, and said, Lord, who is he, that I believe in him?

³⁷ And Jesus said to him, And thou hast seen him, and he it is, that speaketh with thee.

³⁸ And he said, Lord, I believe. And he fell down, and worshipped him.

³⁹ Therefore Jesus said to him, I came into this world, into doom, that they that see not, see, and they that see, be made blind.

⁴⁰ And some of the Pharisees heard, that were with him, and they said to him, Whether [and] we be blind?

⁴¹ Jesus said to them, If ye were blind, ye should not have sin; but now ye say, That we see, your sin dwelleth still [your sin dwelleth].
