| The Book of John 9 | ||||||||||||||||
| The World English Online Bible (WLD) | ||||||||||||||||
| John 9:1 | As he passed by, he saw a man blind from his birth. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:2 | His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:3 | Jesus answered, "Neither did this man sin, nor his parents. But, that the works of God might be revealed in him, | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:4 | I must work the works of him who sent me, while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:5 | When I am in the world, I am the light of the world." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:6 | When he had said this, he spat on the ground, made mud with the saliva, anointed the blind man's eyes with the mud, | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:7 | and said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which means "Sent"). So he went away, washed, and came seeing. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:8 | The neighbors therefore, and those who saw that he was blind, before, said, "Isn't this he who sat and begged?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:9 | Others said, "It is he." Still others said, "He is like him." He said, "I am he." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:10 | They said therefore to him, "How were your eyes opened?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:11 | 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." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:12 | Then they asked him, "Where is he?" He said, "I don't know." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:13 | They brought him who before was blind to the Pharisees. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:14 | It was a Sabbath when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:15 | 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." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:16 | Some therefore of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, because he doesn't keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" There was division among them. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:17 | Therefore they asked the blind man again, "What do you say about him, in that he opened your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:18 | 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 who had received his sight, | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:19 | and asked them, "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:20 | His parents answered them, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind; | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:21 | but how he now sees, we don't know; or who opened his eyes, we don't know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:22 | 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. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:23 | Therefore his parents said, "He is of age. Ask him." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:24 | 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." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:25 | He therefore answered, "I don't know if he is a sinner. One thing I know: that though I was blind, now I see." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:26 | They said to him again, "What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:27 | He answered them, "I told you already, and you didn't listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become his disciples?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:28 | They became abusive towards him and said, "You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:29 | We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don't know where he comes from." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:30 | The man answered them, "How amazing! You don't know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:31 | We know that God doesn't listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshipper of God, and does his will, he listens to him. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:32 | Since the world began it has never been heard of that anyone opened the eyes of a man born blind. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:33 | If this man were not from God, he could do nothing." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:34 | They answered him, "You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?" They threw him out. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:35 | Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of God?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:36 | He answered, "Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:37 | Jesus said to him, "You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:38 | He said, "Lord, I believe!" and he worshipped him. | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:39 | Jesus said, "I came into this world for judgment, that those who don't see may see; and that those who see may become blind." | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:40 | Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, "Are we also blind?" | |||||||||||||||
| John 9:41 | Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, 'We see.' Therefore your sin remains. | |||||||||||||||
