¹ And, passing along, he saw a man blind from his birth. ² And His disciples asked Him, saying, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"

³ Jesus answered, "Neither did this man sin, nor his parents; but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. ⁴ We must work the works of Him Who sent Me, while it is day. Night is coming, when no one can work. ⁵ When I am in the world, I am the Light of the world."

⁶ Having thus spoken, He spit on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and anointed his eyes with the clay, ⁷ and said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is interpreted, Sent). He went, therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

⁸ The neighbors, therefore, and those formerly beholding him, that he was a beggar, said, "Is not this he that sits and begs?" ⁹ Some said, "This is he;" others said, "No, but he is like him;" he said, "I am he."

¹⁰ They said, therefore, to him, "How then were your eyes opened?"

¹¹ He answered, "The Man Who is called Jesus made clay, and anointed my eyes, and said to me, 'Go to Siloam, and wash;' having gone, therefore, and washed, I received sight."

¹² And they said to him, "Where is He?" He says, I know not."
