John 9

1 And passing by He saw a man blind from birth.

As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth.

2 And asked Him the disciples of Him saying; Rabbi, who sinned, this [man] or the parents of him, that blind he may be born?

His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”

3 Answered (*k*) Jesus; Neither this [man] sinned nor [sinned] the parents of him, but [it was] that may be displayed the works of God in him.

Jesus answered, “This man did not sin, nor did his parents, but that the works of God might be revealed in him.

4 (Us *N(K)O*) it behooves to work the works of the [One who] having sent Me while day it is; is coming night, when no [one] is able to work.

I must work the works of him who sent me while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.

5 While in the world I may be, [the] light I am of the world.

While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”

6 These things having said He spat on [the] ground and He made clay of the spittle and (he rubbed *NK(O)*) (on him *no*) the clay to the eyes (of the blind *k*)

When he had said this, he spat on the ground, made mud with the saliva, anointed the blind man’s eyes with the mud,

7 And He said to him; do go do wash yourself in the pool of Siloam which means Sent. He went therefore and washed and came [back] seeing.

and said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which means “Sent”). So he went away, washed, and came back seeing.

8 The therefore neighbours and those having seen him before that (a beggar *N(K)O*) he was, were saying; Surely this is the [one] sitting and begging?

Therefore the neighbors and those who saw that he was blind before said, “Is not this he who sat and begged?”

9 Some were saying that He it is, but others were saying; (No, *no*) (but *N(k)O*) (that *k*) like as him he is. He was saying that I myself am [he].

Others were saying, “It is he.” Still others were saying, “He looks like him.” He said, “I am he.”

10 They were saying therefore to him; How (then *NO*) were opened of you the eyes?

They therefore were asking him, “How were your eyes opened?”

11 Answered He (and said: *k*) (The *no*) man (who *no*) is being named Jesus clay made and He anointed my eyes and He said to me (that *no*) do go to (pool *k*) (*N(k)O*) Siloam and do wash. yourself Having gone (therefore *N(K)O*) and having washed I received sight.

He answered, “A man called Jesus made mud, anointed my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.’ So I went away and washed, and I received sight.”

12 (And *N(k)O*) they said to him; Where is He? He says; Not I know.

Then they asked him, “Where is he?” He said, “I do not know.”

13 They bring him to the Pharisees who once [was] blind;

They brought him who had been blind to the Pharisees.

14 Was now Sabbath (in which day *NO*) (when *k*) the clay made Jesus and opened of him the eyes.

It was a Sabbath when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.

15 Again therefore were asking him also the Pharisees how he had received sight. And he said to them; Clay He put on my eyes and I washed and I see.

Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. He said to them, “He put mud on my eyes, I washed, and I see.”

16 Were saying therefore of the Pharisees some; Not is this from (*k*) God the man for the Sabbath not He does keep. Others (however *no*) were saying; How is able a man sinful such signs to do? And division there was among them.

Some therefore of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, because he does not keep the Sabbath.” Others said, “How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?” So there was division among them.

17 They say (therefore *NO*) to the blind [man] again; What you yourself say concerning Him for He opened of you the eyes? And he said that A prophet He is.

Therefore they asked the blind man again, “What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?” He said, “He is a prophet.”

18 Not did believe then the Jews concerning him that he was being blind and received sight until when they called the parents of him who having received sight,

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 who had received his sight,

19 And they asked them saying; This is the son of you of whom you yourselves say that blind he was born? How then does he see presently

and asked them, “Is this your son, whom you say was born blind? How then does he now see?”

20 Answered (therefore *N(k)*) (to them *k*) the parents of him and said; We know that this is the son of us and that blind he was born;

His parents answered them, “We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

21 How however presently he sees not we know, or who opened of him the eyes we ourselves not know; him do ask, (he himself *k*) [of] age is; He himself Concerning himself he will speak.

but how he now sees, we do not know; or who opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself.”

22 These things said the parents of Him because they were afraid of the Jews; already for had agreed together the Jews that if anyone Him shall confess Christ, expelled from the synagogue he shall be.

His parents said these things because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if any man would confess him as Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.

23 Because of this the parents of him said that Age he has, him (do question. *N(k)O*)

Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”

24 They called therefore the man out a second time who were blind and they said to him; do give glory to God! We ourselves know that this man a sinner is.

So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

25 Answered then he (and said: *k*) Whether a sinner He is not I know; One [thing] I do know that blind being now I see.

He therefore answered, “I do not know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”

26 They said (therefore *N(k)O*) to him (again: *k*) What did He to you? How opened He of you the eyes?

They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

27 He answered them; I told you already, and not you did listen. Why again do you wish to hear? Surely not also you yourselves do wish His disciples to become?

He answered them, “I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You do not also want to become his disciples, do you?”

28 (And *n(o)*) ([they] now *o*) railed at (therefore *K*) him and said; You yourself a disciple are of that One, we ourselves however of Moses are disciples.

They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

29 We ourselves know that to Moses has spoken God, this [man] however not we know from where is.

We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we do not know where he comes from.”

30 Answered the man and said to them; In this for (*no*) an amazing thing is that you yourselves not know from where He is, and yet (He opened *N(k)O*) my eyes.

The man answered them, “How amazing! You do not know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes.

31 We know (now *k*) that to sinners God not does listen, but if anyone God-fearing shall be and the will of Him shall do, to him He listens.

We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does his will, he listens to him.

32 Out of the age never it has been heard that opened anyone [the] eyes of [one] blind born. (aiōn g165)

From the age (aiōn g165) it has never been heard of that anyone opened the eyes of someone born blind.

33 only unless were this [man] from God, not He was able to do no [thing].

If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.”

34 They answered and they said to him; In sins you yourself were born entirely and you yourself teach us? And they cast him out.

They answered him, “You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?” Then they threw him out.

35 Heard (*ko*) Jesus that they had cast him out, and having found him He said (to him: *ko*) You yourself believe in the Son (of Man? *N(K)O*)

Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding him, he said, “Do you believe in the Son of God?”

36 Answered he and said; (And *no*) who is He, lord, that I may believe in Him?

He answered, “Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?”

37 Said (now *k*) to him Jesus; Both You have seen Him, and the [One] speaking with you He is.

Jesus said to him, “You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you.”

38 And he was saying; I believe, Lord, And he worshiped Him.

He said, “Lord, I believe!” and he worshiped him.

39 And said Jesus; For judgment I myself into world this came, that those not seeing may see and those seeing blind may become.

Jesus said, “I came into this world for judgment, that those who do not see may see; and that those who see may become blind.”

40 (and *k*) Heard from the Pharisees these things who with Him being and they said to Him; Surely not also we ourselves blind are?

Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, “Are we also blind?”

41 Said to them Jesus; If blind you were, not then would you have sin. since however you say that We see, the (therefore *K*) sin of you remains.

Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, ‘We see.’ Therefore your sin remains.
