John 9
1 And as he passed by, he saw a man blind from his birth.
And Jhesus passynge, seiy a man blynd fro the birthe.
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he should be born blind?
And hise disciplis axiden hym, Maistir, what synnede this man, or hise eldris, that he schulde be borun blynd?
3 Jesus answered, Neither did this man sin, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
Jhesus answeride, Nether this man synnede, nether hise eldris; but that the werkis of God be schewid in hym.
4 We must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
It bihoueth me to worche the werkis of hym that sente me, as longe as the dai is; the nyyt schal come, whanne no man may worche.
5 When I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
As longe as Y am in the world, Y am the liyt of the world.
6 When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and anointed his eyes with the clay,
Whanne he hadde seid these thingis, he spette in to the erthe, and made cley of the spotil, and anoyntide the cley on hise iyen,
7 and said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam (which is by interpretation, Sent). He went away therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
and seide to hym, Go, and be thou waisschun in the watir of Siloe, that is to seie, Sent. Thanne he wente, and waisschide, and cam seynge.
8 The neighbours therefore, and they which saw him aforetime, that he was a beggar, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?
And so neiyboris, and thei that hadden seyn him bifor, for he was a beggere, seiden, Whether this is not he, that sat, and beggide?
9 Others said, It is he: others said, No, but he is like him. He said, I am [he].
Othere men seiden, That this it is; othere men seyden, Nai, but he is lijc hym.
10 They said therefore unto him, How then were thine eyes opened?
But he seide, That Y am. Therfor thei seiden to hym, Hou ben thin iyen openyd?
11 He answered, The man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to Siloam, and wash: so I went away and washed, and I received sight.
He answerde, Thilke man, that is seid Jhesus, made clei, and anoyntide myn iyen, and seide to me, Go thou to the watre of Siloe, and wassche; and Y wente, and wasschide, and say.
12 And they said unto him, Where is he? He saith, I know not.
And thei seiden to hym, Where is he? He seide, Y woot not.
13 They bring to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.
Thei leden hym that was blynd to the Farisees.
14 Now it was the sabbath on the day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
And it was sabat, whanne Jhesus made cley, and openyde hise iyen.
15 Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. And he said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.
Eft the Farisees axiden hym, hou he hadde seyn. And he seide to hem, He leide to me cley on the iyen; and Y wasschide, and Y se.
16 Some therefore of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, because he keepeth not the sabbath. But others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such signs? And there was a division among them.
Therfor summe of the Fariseis seiden, This man is not of God, that kepith not the sabat. Othere men seiden, Hou may a synful man do these signes. And strijf was among hem.
17 They say therefore unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, in that he opened thine eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.
Therfor thei seien eftsoone to the blynd man, What seist thou of hym, that openyde thin iyen? And he seide, That he is a prophete.
18 The Jews therefore 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,
Therfor Jewis bileueden not of hym, that he was blynd, and hadde seyn, til thei clepiden his fadir and modir, that hadde seyn.
19 and asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?
And thei axiden hem, and seiden, Is this youre sone, which ye seien was borun blynd? hou thanne seeth he now?
20 His parents answered and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
His fadir and modir answeriden to hem, and seiden, We witen, that this is oure sone, and that he was borun blynd;
21 but how he now seeth, we know not; or who opened his eyes, we know not: ask him; he is of age; he shall speak for himself.
but hou he seeth now, we witen neuer, or who openyde hise iyen, we witen nere; axe ye hym, he hath age, speke he of hym silf.
22 These things said his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man should confess him [to be] Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
His fader and modir seiden these thingis, for thei dredden the Jewis; for thanne the Jewis hadden conspirid, that if ony man knoulechide hym Crist, he schulde be don out of the synagoge.
23 Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
Therfor his fadir and modir seiden, That he hath age, axe ye hym.
24 So they called a second time the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give glory to God: we know that this man is a sinner.
Therfor eftsoone thei clepiden the man, that was blynd, and seiden to hym, Yyue thou glorie to God; we witen, that this man is a synnere.
25 He therefore answered, Whether he be a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
Thanne he seide, If he is a synnere, Y woot neuer; o thing Y woot, that whanne Y was blynd, now Y se.
26 They said therefore unto him, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?
Therfor thei seiden to hym, What dide he to thee? hou openyde he thin iyen?
27 He answered them, I told you even now, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? would ye also become his disciples?
He answerde to hem, Y seide to you now, and ye herden; what wolen ye eftsoone here? whether ye wolen be maad hise discyplis?
28 And they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are disciples of Moses.
Therfor thei cursiden hym, and seiden, Be thou his disciple; we ben disciplis of Moises.
29 We know that God hath spoken unto Moses: but as for this man, we know not whence he is.
We witen, that God spak to Moises; but we knowen not this, of whennus he is.
30 The man answered and said unto them, Why, herein is the marvel, that ye know not whence he is, and [yet] he opened mine eyes.
Thilke man answeride, and seide to hem, For in this is a wondurful thing, that ye witen not, of whennus he is, and he hath openyd myn iyen.
31 We know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and do his will, him he heareth.
And we witen, that God herith not synful men, but if ony `man is worschypere of God, and doith his wille, he herith hym.
32 Since the world began it was never heard that any one opened the eyes of a man born blind. (aiōn g165)
Fro the world it is not herd, that ony man openyde the iyen of a blynd borun man; but this were of God, (aiōn g165)
33 If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.
he myyt not do ony thing.
34 They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
Thei answeriden, and seiden to hym, Thou art al borun in synnes, and techist thou vs? And thei putten hym out.
35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and finding him, he said, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?
Jhesus herd, that thei hadden putte hym out; and whanne he hadde founde hym, he seide to hym, Bileuest thou in the sone of God?
36 He answered and said, And who is he, Lord, that I may believe on him?
He answerde, and seide, Lord, who is he, that Y bileue in hym?
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and he it is that speaketh with thee.
And Jhesus seide to hym, And thou hast seyn him, and he it is, that spekith with thee.
38 And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.
And he seide, Lord, Y byleue. And he felle doun, and worschipide hym.
39 And Jesus said, For judgment came I into this world, that they which see not may see; and that they which see may become blind.
Therfore Jhesus seide to hym, Y cam in to this world, `in to doom, that thei that seen not, see, and thei that seen, be maad blynde.
40 Those of the Pharisees which were with him heard these things, and said unto him, Are we also blind?
And summe of the Faryseis herden, that weren with hym, and thei seiden to hym, Whether we ben blynde?
41 Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye would have no sin: but now ye say, We see: your sin remaineth.
Jhesus seide to hem, If ye weren blynde, ye schulden not haue synne; but now ye seien, That we seen, youre synne dwellith stille.
