Juan 9 Literal Standard Version

91 And passing by, He saw a man blind from birth, 2 and His disciples asked Him, saying, “Rabbi, who sinned, this one or his parents, that he should be born blind?” 3 Jesus answered, “Neither this one sinned nor his parents, but that the works of God may be revealed in him; 4 it is necessary for Me to be working the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; night comes when no one is able to work: 5 when I am in the world, I AM [the] light of the world.” 6 Saying these things, 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, 7 “Go away, wash at the pool of Siloam,” which is, interpreted, Sent. He went away, therefore, and washed, and came seeing; 8 the neighbors, therefore, and those seeing him before, that he was blind, said, “Is this not he who is sitting and begging?” 9 Others said, “This is he”; and others, “He is like to him”; he himself said, “I am [he].” 10 They said, therefore, to him, “How were your eyes opened?” 11 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”; 12 they said, therefore, to him, “Where is that One?” He says, “I have not known.” 13 They bring him who once [was] blind to the Pharisees, 14 and it was a Sabbath when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes. 15 Again, therefore, the Pharisees also were asking him how he received sight, and he said to them, “He put clay on my eyes, and I washed—and I see.” 16 Certain of the Pharisees therefore said, “This Man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath”; others said, “How is a man—a sinful one—able to do such signs?” And there was a division among them. 17 They said to the blind man again, “You—what do you say of Him—that He opened your eyes?” 18 And he said, “He is a prophet.” The Jews, therefore, did not believe concerning him that he was blind and received sight, until they called the parents of him who received sight, 19 and they asked them, saying, “Is [this] your son, of whom you say that he was born blind? How then does he now see?” 20 His parents answered them and said, “We have known that this is our son, and that he was born blind; 21 and how he now sees, we have not known; or who opened his eyes, we have not known; he is of age, ask him; he himself will speak concerning himself.” 22 His parents said these things, because they were afraid of the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed together, that if anyone may confess Him—Christ, he may be put out of the synagogue; 23 because of this his parents said, “He is of age, ask him.” 24 They called, therefore, the man who was blind a second time, and they said to him, “Give glory to God, we have known that this Man is a sinner”; 25 he answered, therefore, and said, “If He is a sinner—I have not known, one thing I have known, that, being blind, now I see.” 26 And they said to him again, “What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?” 27 He answered them, “I told you already, and you did not hear; why do you wish to hear [it] again? Do you also wish to become His disciples?” 28 They reviled him, therefore, and said, “You are His disciple, and we are Moses’ disciples; 29 we have known that God has spoken to Moses, but this One—we have not known where He is from.” 30 The man answered and said to them, “Why, in this is a wonderful thing, that you have not known where He is from, and He opened my eyes! 31 And we have known that God does not hear sinners, but if anyone may be a worshiper of God, and may do His will, He hears him; 32 from the age it was not heard that anyone opened eyes of one who has been born blind; 33 if this One were not from God, He were not able to do anything.” 34 They answered and said to him, “In sins you were born altogether, and you teach us?” And they cast him forth outside. 35 Jesus heard that they cast him forth outside, and having found him, He said to him, “Do you believe in the Son of God?” 36 He answered and said, “Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?” 37 And Jesus said to him, “You have both seen Him, and He who is speaking with you is He”; 38 and he said, “I believe, Lord,” and worshiped Him. 39 And Jesus said, “I came to this world for judgment, that those not seeing may see, and those seeing may become blind.” 40 And those of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these things, and they said to Him, “Are we also blind?” 41 Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you were not having had sin, but now you say—We see, therefore your sin remains.”
