| 1 | And passing by He saw a man who was blind from birth. |
| 2 | And His students asked Him, saying "Rabbi, who has done wrong, this man or his parents, that he should be born blind?" |
| 3 | Yahshua replied: "Neither has this man done wrong nor his parents, but so that the works of Yahweh would be manifest by him. |
| 4 | It is necessary for us to accomplish the works of He who has sent Me while it is day; when the night comes no one is able to work. |
| 5 | Whenever I may be in the Society, I am the light of the Society!" |
| 6 | Saying these things He had spat on the ground and made a clay out of the spit and smeared him with the clay upon the eyes. |
| 7 | And He said to him: "Go wash in the pool of Siloam (which is translated 'Sent')." Then he departed and washed and came seeing. |
| 8 | Then the neighbors and those having observed him before, because he was a beggar, said "Is this man not he who sits and begs?" |
| 9 | Others said that "It is he!" Others said "No, but he is like him." The man said that "I am!" |
| 10 | Therefore they said to him "Then how have your eyes been opened?" |
| 11 | He replied: "The man who is called Yahshua made clay and smeared it on my eyes and said to me that 'Go to Siloam and wash'. Then departing and washing I saw!" |
| 12 | And they said to him "Where is He?" He says "I do not know." |
| 13 | They brought him who was once blind to the Pharisees. |
| 14 | Now it was a Sabbath on the day which Yahshua had made the clay and opened his eyes. |
| 15 | Then again the Pharisees also were asking how he now saw. And he said to them "He smeared clay on my eyes and I washed myself and I see!" |
| 16 | Then some from among the Pharisees said "This man is not from Yahweh, because He does not keep the Sabbath!" But others said "How is a sinful man able to do signs such as these?" And there was division among them. |
| 17 | Then they again said to the blind man "What do you say concerning Him, that He opened your eyes?" So he said that "He is a prophet!" |
| 18 | Therefore the Judaeans did not believe it concerning him, that he was blind and now saw, until when they had called the parents of him whose sight had been restored. |
| 19 | And they asked them, saying "Is this your son, whom you say that he had been born blind? So how does he now see?" |
| 20 | Therefore his parents responded and said "We know that he is our son and that he had been born blind. |
| 21 | But how he sees now we do not know, or who has opened his eyes we do not know. You ask him. He is mature, he may speak concerning himself." |
| 22 | His parents said these things because they feared the Judaeans. For already the Judaeans agreed that if one should profess Him as Christ, he would be put out of the assembly hall. |
| 23 | For this reason his parents said that "He is mature, you question him". |
| 24 | Therefore they called the man who was blind for a second time and said to him "You must give the honor to Yahweh, we know that this man is a wrongdoer!" |
| 25 | Then he replied: "I do not know if He is a wrongdoer. One thing I do know, that being blind now I see!" |
| 26 | Therefore they said to him: "What has He done to you? How have your eyes been opened?" |
| 27 | He replied to them "I told you already and you did not hear! Why again do you wish to hear? Do you also wish to become His students?" |
| 28 | And they abused him and said "You are a student of that man, but we are students of Moses! |
| 29 | We know that Yahweh spoke to Moses, but we do not know where He is from!" |
| 30 | The man replied and said to them "For in this is a wondrous thing, that you do not know where He is from, yet He opened my eyes! |
| 31 | We know that Yahweh does not hear wrongdoers, but if one should be reverent and would do His will, that man He hears. |
| 32 | From of old it has not been heard that the eyes of one born blind have been opened! |
| 33 | Unless this man were from Yahweh, He is not able to do anything!" |
| 34 | They replied and said to him: "You were born entirely in sin and you teach us?" And they cast him outside. |
| 35 | Yahshua heard that they cast him out and finding him said "Do you have faith in the Son of Man?" |
| 36 | He replied and said "And who is He, Master, that I should have faith in Him?" |
| 37 | Yahshua said to him: "You have both seen Him, and it is He who is speaking with you." |
| 38 | Then he said "I do believe, Master!" And He worshipped Him. |
| 39 | And Yahshua said: "For judgment I have come into this Society, that those not seeing would see and those seeing would be made blind!" |
| 40 | Some of the Pharisees being with Him heard these things and they said to Him "Are we also blind?" |
| 41 | Yahshua said to them: "If you were blind, you would not have fault. But now you say that 'We see', your fault remains! |
