Young's Literal Translation
Now
as
Jesus
was
passing by, He saw a man blind from birth,
And
passing by, he saw a man blind from birth,
and His disciples asked Him, “
Rabbi, who sinned
, this man
or his parents, that he was
born blind? ”
and his disciples asked him, saying,
`
Rabbi, who did
sin
, this one
or his parents, that he should
be
born blind? '
Jesus answered, “
Neither this man
nor his parents sinned
, but this
happened
so
that the works of God would
be displayed
in him .
Jesus answered, `
Neither did
this one
sin
nor his parents, but that the works of God may
be manifested
in him ;
While
it is
daytime,
we
must
do
the works of Him who sent Me .
Night
is coming
, when no one can
work .
it behoveth
me
to
be
working
the works of Him who sent me while
it
is day;
night
doth
come
, when no one is
able
to
work :
--
While
I am in the world, I am the
light of the world. ”
when
I am in the world, I am a
light of the world. '
When
Jesus
had
said
this
, He spit
on the ground, made some
mud
, and applied
it
to
the man’s
eyes .
These
things
saying
, he spat
on the ground, and
made clay
of
the
spittle
, and rubbed
the clay
on
the
eyes of
the
blind
man,
and
said
to
him,
Then
He
told
him,
“
Go, wash in
the Pool of Siloam ”
(
which means
“
Sent ”)
. So
the
man
went and washed
, and came back
seeing .
`
Go away
, wash at
the pool of Siloam ,'
which is,
interpreted,
Sent. He
went away,
therefore,
and did
wash
, and came seeing ;
At
this
, his
neighbors
and those who
had
formerly
seen
him begging
began
to
ask
, “Isn’t
this the
man
who used
to
sit
and beg
? ”
the
neighbours
, therefore,
and those seeing
him before
, that
he
was
blind,
said,
`Is
not
this he
who is
sitting
and begging
? '
Some
claimed
that
he
was,
but
others said ,
“No,
he just
looks
like him .”
But
the
man
kept
saying
, “
I am the
one
. ”
others said --
`This
is
he ;'
and
others
--
`He
is
like to
him ;'
he
himself
said
, --
`
I am `he'
. '
“
How then
were your
eyes opened? ”
they
asked.
They
said,
therefore,
to
him,
`
How were thine
eyes opened? '
He answered, “The
man they
call
Jesus made some
mud
and anointed
my eyes, and He
told
me
to go to Siloam and wash .
So
I
went
and washed
and received my
sight .”
he answered and
said
, `A
man called
Jesus made clay,
and rubbed
my eyes, and said
to me,
Go away
to the
pool
of
Siloam ,
and wash ;
and having
gone
away
and having
washed,
I
received sight ;'
“
Where is He
? ”
they
asked.
“
I do
not know,”
he
answered
.
they
said,
therefore,
to
him,
`
Where is that
one
? '
he
saith,
`
I have
not known
. '
They brought
to the Pharisees the
man
who had
been
blind .
They bring
him
to the Pharisees who once
`was'
blind ,
Now
the
day
on
which
Jesus had
made the mud
and opened his eyes was
a
Sabbath
.
and
it
was
a
sabbath
when
Jesus made the clay,
and opened his eyes.
So
the Pharisees also asked
him how he had
received his
sight .
The
man
answered
, “
He put mud
on
my eyes, and I washed,
and now
I can
see. ”
Again,
therefore,
the Pharisees also were
asking
him how he received sight, and
he said
to
them,
`Clay
he
did
put upon
my eyes, and I did
wash
--
and I see. '
Because
of this,
some
of
the Pharisees said, “
This man is not from God, for
He does
not keep the
Sabbath.”
But
others said, “
How can
a sinful
man perform
such signs? ”
And there was division among them.
Of the Pharisees ,
therefore,
certain
said, `
This man is not from God, because
the
sabbath
he doth
not keep ;'
others said, `
How is
a man --
a
sinful
one
--
able
to
do
such signs? '
and there was a
division among them.
So
once
again
they asked
the man
who
had
been
blind, “
What do
you
say about
Him ,
since
it
was
your
eyes
He opened? ”
“He
is
a
prophet,”
the
man
replied.
They said
to
the blind man
again
, `Thou
--
what dost
thou
say of
him --
that
he opened thine
eyes
? '
The Jews still
did not believe that the
man
had
been
blind and had
received
his
sight until
they summoned
his
parents
and
he
said
--
`He
is
a
prophet.'
The Jews ,
therefore,
did not believe concerning
him
that he
was
blind and did
receive
sight ,
till
that
they called
the
parents of
him
who
received
sight,
and asked, “
Is this
your son, the
one
you
say was born blind? So
how is
it
that
he
can
now see? ”
and they
asked them
, saying,
`
Is your son, of
whom
ye
say that
he
was born blind? how then
now doth
he
see? '
His parents answered, “
We know
he
is our son, and we
know
he was born blind .
His parents answered them
and
said
, `
We have
known
that
this
is our son, and that
he was born blind ;
But
how he can
now see
or who opened his eyes, we do
not know.
Ask him .
He is
old
enough
to
speak for
himself. ”
and
how he now seeth,
we
have
not
known;
or who opened his eyes, we have
not known;
himself
is
of
age,
ask him ;
he himself
shall
speak concerning
himself. '
His parents said
this
because they were afraid of the Jews .
For the Jews had
already
determined
that anyone
who
confessed
Jesus
as
the
Christ would
be put out of the synagogue .
These
things
said
his parents ,
because they were afraid of the Jews ,
for already
had
the Jews agreed
together,
that if
any
one
may
confess
him
--
Christ ,
he
may
be put out of the synagogue ;
That
was
why
his parents said ,
“
He is old
enough.
Ask him. ”
because
of
this
his parents said --
`
He is of
age,
ask him. '
So
a second time they
called
for
the man who had
been
blind and said, “
Give glory to God !
We know
that this man is a sinner .”
They
called,
therefore,
a second time the man who was
blind ,
and they
said to
him
, `
Give glory to God ,
we have
known
that this man is a sinner ;'
He answered, “Whether
He is
a sinner I do
not know.
There
is
one thing I do
know:
I
was
blind, but
now I see !”
he answered, therefore,
and
said,
`If
he be
a sinner --
I have
not known,
one thing I have
known,
that,
being
blind, now I see .'
“
What did He do
to you
? ”
they
asked.
“
How did He open your
eyes? ”
And
they
said
to
him
again,
`
What did he to thee
? how did he open thine
eyes? '
He replied
, “
I already
told you, and you
did not listen.
Why do you
want
to hear it
again
? Do you
also want
to become His disciples? ”
He answered
them
, `
I told you already
, and ye
did not hear;
why again
do ye
wish
to hear? do ye
also wish
to become his disciples? '
Then
they heaped
insults
on
him and said, “You
are
His disciple ;
we are disciples
of
Moses .
They reviled
him ,
therefore,
and said, `Thou
art
his disciple ,
and
we are Moses '
disciples;
We know
that God spoke
to Moses, but we do
not know
where
this
man
is from
. ”
we have
known
that God hath
spoken
to Moses, but this
one
--
we have
not known
whence
he
is. '
“That
is
remarkable
indeed!”
the man said .
“You
do
not know
where
He is from
, and yet
He opened my eyes .
The man answered
and
said to
them,
`Why,
in
this
is
a
wonderful
thing,
that
ye
have
not known
whence
he is, and he opened my eyes !
We know
that God does
not listen
to
sinners, but He
does
listen
to
the
one who
worships
Him
and does
His will .
and
we have
known
that God doth
not hear
sinners, but ,
if
any
one may
be
a
worshipper
of
God,
and may
do
His will ,
him
He
doth
hear;
Never
before
has
anyone
heard
of
opening
the eyes of a
man
born blind .
from
the age
it
was
not
heard,
that
any
one
did
open
eyes of one
who
hath
been
born blind ;
If this man
were not from God, He could
do no
such
thing
. ”
if this one
were not from God, he were
not
able
to
do anything
. '
They replied
, “You
were
born
in utter
sin
, and you
are
instructing
us ?”
And they threw
him out
.
They answered
and
said
to
him
, `
In sins
thou
wast
born
altogether
, and thou
dost
teach
us !'
and they cast
him forth
without
.
When
Jesus heard that they had
thrown
him out
, He
found
the
man
and said, “Do
you
believe in the Son of Man
? ”
Jesus heard that they cast
him forth
without
, and having
found
him,
he
said to
him
, `Dost
thou
believe in the Son of God
? '
“
Who is He, Sir ?”
he
replied.
“Tell
me
so
that I may believe in Him .”
he
answered
and
said,
`
Who is he, sir ,
that I may believe in him ?'
“You
have
already
seen Him, ”
Jesus
answered.
“
He is the
One
speaking with you.”
And
Jesus
said
to
him,
`Thou
hast
both
seen him, and
he who
is speaking with thee
is
he;'
“Lord
, I believe, ”
he
said.
And he
worshiped
Jesus
.
and
he
said
, `
I believe, sir,'
and bowed
before
him
.
Then
Jesus declared
, “
For judgment I have
come
into
this world, so
that the
blind
may see and those who
see
may become blind. ”
And
Jesus said
, `
For judgment I to
this world did
come
, that those
not
seeing
may see ,
and those seeing
may become blind. '
Some
of the Pharisees who were with Him heard this
, and they asked
Him, “
Are we blind too
? ”
And
those
of the Pharisees who were with him heard these
things
, and they said
to
him, `
Are we also
blind? '
“
If you
were blind, ”
Jesus
replied,
“you
would
not be
guilty
of
sin .
But since
you
claim
you
can
see, your guilt
remains
. ”
Jesus
said
to
them,
`
If ye
were blind, ye
were
not having
had
sin ,
but now
ye
say
--
We
see, therefore
doth
your sin
remain
.
