John 9:3-15

3JesusG2424 answeredG611, “It was neitherG3777 that thisG3778 manG3778 sinnedG264, norG3777 his parentsG1118; but it was soG2443 1that the worksG2041 of GodG2316 might be displayedG5319 in him. 4We mustG1163 workG2038 the worksG2041 of Him who sentG3992 Me 2as longG2193 as it is dayG2250; nightG3571 is comingG2064 whenG3753 noG3762 oneG3762 canG1410 workG2038. 5WhileG3752 I amG1510 in the worldG2889, I amG1510 3the LightG5457 of the worldG2889.” 6When He had saidG3004 thisG3778, He 4spatG4429 on the groundG5476, and madeG4160 clayG4081 of the spittleG4427, and appliedG2007 the clayG4081 to his eyesG3788, 7and saidG3004 to him, “GoG5217, washG3538 in 5the poolG2861 of SiloamG4611” (whichG3739 is translatedG2059, SentG649). SoG3767 he wentG565 awayG565 and 6washedG3538, and 7cameG2064 back seeingG991. 8ThereforeG3767 the neighborsG1069, and thoseG3588 who previouslyG4387 sawG2334 him as a beggarG4319, were sayingG3004, “Is not thisG3778 the one who used to 8sitG2521 and begG4319?” 9OthersG243 were sayingG3004, “ThisG3778 is he,” still othersG243 were sayingG3004, “NoG3780, but he is likeG3664 him.” 9He kept sayingG3004, “I amG1510 the one.” 10SoG3767 they were sayingG3004 to him, “HowG4459 thenG3767 were your eyesG3788 openedG455?” 11He answeredG611, “The manG444 who is calledG3004 JesusG2424 madeG4160 clayG4081, and anointedG2025 my eyesG3788, and saidG3004 to me, ‘GoG5217 to 10SiloamG4611 and washG3538’; soG3767 I wentG565 awayG565 and washedG3538, and I receivedG308 sightG308.” 12They saidG3004 to him, “WhereG4226 is He?” He saidG3004, “I do not knowG3609.”

13They broughtG71 to the PhariseesG5330 the man who was formerlyG4218 blindG5185. 1411NowG1161 it was a SabbathG4521 on the dayG2250 whenG3739 JesusG2424 madeG4160 the clayG4081 and openedG455 his eyesG3788. 1512ThenG3767 the PhariseesG5330 alsoG2532 were askingG2065 him againG3825 howG4459 he receivedG308 his sightG308. And he saidG3004 to them, “He appliedG2007 clayG4081 to my eyesG3788, and I washedG3538, and I seeG991.”
