John 9:1–12

And Jesus passing by, saw a man who was blind from his birth.

²And his disciples asked him: Rabbi, who hath sinned, this man or his parents, that he should be born blind?

³Jesus answered: Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

⁴I must work the works of him that sent me, whilst it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.

⁵As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

⁶When he had said these things, he spat on the ground and made clay of the spittle and spread the clay upon his eyes,

⁷And said to him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloe, which is interpreted, Sent. He went therefore and washed: and he came seeing.

⁸The neighbours, therefore, and they who had seen him before that he was a beggar, said: Is not this he that sat and begged? Some said: This is he.

⁹But others said: No, but he is like him. But he said: I am he.

¹⁰They said therefore to him: How were thy eyes opened?

¹¹He answered: That man that is called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and said to me: Go to the pool of Siloe and wash. And I went: I washed: and I see.

¹²And they said to him: Where is he? He saith: I know not.
