John 9
1AndG2532 asG3855 Jesus passed byG3855, he sawG3708 a manG444 which was blindG5185 fromG1537 his birthG1079. 2AndG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 askedG2065 himG846, sayingG3004, MasterG4461, whoG5101 did sinG264, this manG3778, orG2228 hisG846 parentsG3588G1118, thatG2443 he was bornG1080 blindG5185? 3JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611, NeitherG3777 hathG264 this manG3778 sinnedG264, norG3777 hisG846 parentsG3588G1118: butG235 thatG2443 the worksG3588G2041 of GodG3588G2316 should be made manifestG5319 inG1722 himG846. 4IG1473 mustG1163 workG2038 the worksG3588G2041 of him that sentG3992 meG1473, whileG2193 it isG1510 dayG2250: the nightG3571 comethG2064, whenG3753 no manG3762 canG1410 workG2038. 5As long asG3752 I amG1510 inG1722 the worldG3588G2889, I amG1510 the lightG5457 of the worldG3588G2889. 6When he hadG3004 thusG3778 spokenG3004, he spatG4429 on the groundG5476, andG2532 madeG4160 clayG4081 ofG1537 the spittleG3588G4427, andG2532 he anointedG2025 the eyesG3588G3788 of the blind manG5185 with the clayG3588G4081, 7AndG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, GoG5217, washG3538 inG1519 the poolG3588G2861 of SiloamG4611, (whichG3739 is by interpretationG2059, SentG649.) He went his wayG565 thereforeG3767, andG2532 washedG3538, andG2532 cameG2064 seeingG991.
8The neighboursG3588G1069 thereforeG3767, andG2532 they whichG3588G2334 beforeG3588G4386 had seenG3588G2334 himG846 thatG3754 he wasG1510 blindG5185, saidG3004, IsG1510 notG3756 thisG3778 he that satG3588G2521 andG2532 beggedG4319? 9SomeG243 saidG3004, ThisG3778 is heG1510: othersG243 said, He isG1510 likeG3664 himG846: but heG1565 saidG3004, IG1473 amG1510 he. 10ThereforeG3767 said theyG3004 unto himG846, HowG4459 wereG455 thineG4771 eyesG3588G3788 openedG455? 11HeG1565 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004, A manG444 that is calledG3004 JesusG2424 madeG4160 clayG4081, andG2532 anointedG2025 mineG1473 eyesG3588G3788, andG2532 saidG3004 unto meG1473, GoG5217 toG1519 the poolG3588G2861 of SiloamG4611, andG2532 washG3538: andG1161 I wentG565 andG2532 washedG3538, and I received sightG308. 12ThenG3767 said theyG3004 unto himG846, WhereG4226 isG1510 heG1565? He saidG3004, I knowG1492 notG3756.
13They broughtG71 toG4314 the PhariseesG3588G5330 himG846 thatG5185 aforetimeG4218 was blindG5185. 14AndG1161 it wasG1510 the sabbath dayG4521 whenG3753 JesusG3588G2424 madeG4160 the clayG3588G4081, andG2532 openedG455 hisG846 eyesG3588G3788. 15ThenG3767 againG3825 the PhariseesG3588G5330 alsoG2532 askedG2065 himG846 howG4459 he had received his sightG308. He saidG3004 unto themG846, He putG2007 clayG4081 uponG1909 mineG1473 eyesG3588G3788, andG2532 I washedG3538, andG2532 do seeG991. 16ThereforeG3767 saidG3004 someG5100 ofG1537 the PhariseesG3588G5330, ThisG3778 manG3588G444 isG1510 notG3756 ofG3844 GodG3588G2316, becauseG3754 he keepethG5083 notG3756 the sabbath dayG3588G4521. OthersG243 saidG3004, HowG4459 canG1410 a manG444 that is a sinnerG268 doG4160 suchG5108 miraclesG4592? AndG2532 there wasG1510 a divisionG4978 amongG1722 themG846. 17They sayG3004 unto the blind manG3588G5185 againG3825, WhatG5101 sayestG3004 thouG4771 ofG4012 himG846, thatG3754 he hath openedG455 thineG4771 eyesG3588G3788? He saidG3588G3004, He isG1510 a prophetG4396. 18ButG3767 the JewsG2453 didG4100 notG3756 believeG4100 concerningG4012 himG846, thatG3754 he had beenG1510 blindG5185, andG2532 received his sightG308, untilG2193 they calledG5455 the parentsG3588G1118 of himG846 that had received his sightG308. 19AndG2532 they askedG2065 themG846, sayingG3004, IsG1510 thisG3778 yourG4771 sonG3588G5207, whoG3739 yeG4771 sayG3004 was bornG1080 blindG5185? howG4459 thenG3767 doth heG991 nowG737 seeG991? 20HisG846 parentsG3588G1118 answeredG611 themG846 andG2532 saidG3004, We knowG1492 thatG3754 thisG3778 isG1510 ourG1473 sonG3588G5207, andG2532 thatG3754 he was bornG1080 blindG5185: 21ButG1161 by what meansG4459 heG991 nowG3568 seethG991, we knowG1492 notG3756; orG2228 whoG5101 hath openedG455 hisG846 eyesG3588G3788, weG1473 knowG1492 notG3756: heG846 is ofG2192 ageG2244; askG2065 himG846: heG846 shall speakG2980 forG4012 himselfG848. 22TheseG3778 words spakeG3004 hisG846 parentsG3588G1118, becauseG3754 they fearedG5399 the JewsG2453: forG1063 the JewsG2453 had agreedG4934 alreadyG2235, thatG2443 ifG1437 any manG5100 did confessG3670 that he wasG846 ChristG5547, he should be putG1096 out of the synagogueG656. 23ThereforeG1223 saidG3004 hisG846 parentsG3588G1118, He isG2192 of ageG2244; askG2065 himG846. 24ThenG3767 againG1537 called theyG5455 the manG3588G444 thatG3739 wasG1510 blindG5185, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, GiveG1325 GodG3588G2316 the praiseG1391: weG1473 knowG1492 thatG3754 thisG3778 manG3588G444 isG1510 a sinnerG268. 25HeG1565 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004, WhetherG1487 he beG1510 a sinnerG268 or no, I knowG1492 notG3756: one thingG1520 I knowG1492, thatG3754, whereas I wasG1510 blindG5185, nowG737 I seeG991. 26ThenG1161 said theyG3004 to himG846 againG3825, WhatG5101 did heG4160 to theeG4771? howG4459 opened heG455 thineG4771 eyesG3588G3788? 27He answeredG611 themG846, I have toldG3004 youG4771 alreadyG2235, andG2532 ye didG191 notG3756 hearG191: whereforeG5101 would yeG2309 hearG191 it againG3825? willG2309 yeG4771 alsoG2532 beG1096 hisG846 disciplesG3101? 28ThenG3767 they reviledG3058 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004, ThouG4771 artG1510 hisG1565 discipleG3101; butG1161 weG1473 areG1510 Moses’G3588G3475 disciplesG3101. 29WeG1473 knowG1492 thatG3754 GodG3588G2316 spakeG2980 unto MosesG3475: as for thisG3778 fellow, we knowG1492 notG3756 from whenceG4159 he isG1510. 30The manG3588G444 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, WhyG1063 hereinG3778 isG1510 a marvellous thingG2298, thatG3754 yeG4771 knowG1492 notG3756 from whenceG4159 he isG1510, andG2532 yet he hath openedG455 mineG1473 eyesG3588G3788. 31NowG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754 GodG3588G2316 hearethG191 notG3756 sinnersG268: butG235 ifG1437 any manG5100 beG1510 a worshipper of GodG2318, andG2532 doethG4160 hisG846 willG3588G2307, himG3778 he hearethG191. 32SinceG1537 the world beganG3588G165 was itG191 notG3756 heardG191 thatG3754 any manG5100 openedG455 the eyesG3788 of one that was bornG1080 blindG5185. 33IfG1487 this manG3778 wereG1510 notG3361 ofG3844 GodG2316, he couldG1410 doG4160 nothingG3756. 34They answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, ThouG4771 wastG1080 altogetherG3650 bornG1080 inG1722 sinsG266, andG2532 dostG1321 thouG4771 teachG1321 usG1473? AndG2532 they castG1544 himG846 outG1854. 35JesusG3588G2424 heardG191 thatG3754 they had castG1544 himG846 outG1854; andG2532 when he had foundG2147 himG846, he saidG3004 unto himG846, DostG4100 thouG4771 believeG4100 onG1519 the SonG3588G5207 of GodG3588G2316? 36HeG1565 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004, WhoG5101 is heG1510, LordG2962, thatG2443 I might believeG4100 onG1519 himG846? 37AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto himG846, Thou hastG3708 bothG2532 seenG3708 himG846, andG2532 it isG1510 heG1565 that talkethG2980 withG3326 theeG4771. 38AndG1161 heG3588 saidG5346, LordG2962, I believeG4100. AndG2532 he worshippedG4352 himG846.
39AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004, ForG1519 judgmentG2917 IG1473 am comeG2064 intoG1519 thisG3778 worldG3588G2889, thatG2443 they which seeG991 notG3361 might seeG991; andG2532 that they which see mightG991 be madeG1096 blindG5185. 40AndG2532 some ofG1537 the PhariseesG3588G5330 which wereG1510 withG3326 himG846 heardG191 these wordsG3778, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, AreG1510 weG1473 blindG5185 alsoG2532? 41JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto themG846, IfG1487 ye wereG1510 blindG5185, ye should haveG2192 noG3756 sinG266: butG1161 nowG3568 ye sayG3004, We seeG991; thereforeG3767 yourG4771 sinG266 remainethG3306.
