John 9:1-12 - A Man Born Blind Is Given Sight

1 AND as he passed along, he saw a man blind from his birth. 2 And his disciples inquired of him, saying, Rabbi, who was in fault, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?

3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man been in fault, nor his parents; but it is in order to make manifest the works of God in him. 4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night is coming, when no man can work. 5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

6 So speaking, he spat on the ground, and made mud with the spittle, and anointed with the mud the eyes of the blind man; 7 and said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which signifies, Sent.) Then he went and washed, and came seeing.

8 The neighbours therefore, and they who saw him formerly, that he was blind, said, Is not this the man who was sitting and begging? 9 Some said, That this is he: but others, That he is like him: he himself said, I am he.

10 When said they to him, How were thine eyes opened?

11 he answered and said, A man called Jesus made mud, and anointed my eyes, and said to me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: then I went, and washing received sight.

12 They said to him, Where is he? He replied, I know not.
