John:9-10
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And as Jesus passed by (
5723 ),
he saw (
5627 )
a man which was blind from his birth .
*
And his disciples asked (
5656 )
him ,
saying (
5723 ),
Master ,
who did sin (
5627 ),
this man ,
or his parents ,
that he was born (
5686 )
blind ?
*
Jesus answered (
5662 ),
Neither hath this man sinned (
5627 ),
nor his parents :
but that the works of God should e made manifest (
5686 )
in him .
*
I must (
5748 )
work (
5738 )
the works of him that sent (
5660 )
me ,
while it is (
5748 )
day :
the night cometh (
5736 ),
when no man can (
5736 )
work (
5738 ).
*
As long as I am (
5753 )
in the world ,
I am (
5748 )
the light of the world .
*
When he had thus spoken (
5631 ),
he spat (
5656 )
on the ground ,
and made (
5656 )
clay of the spittle ,
and he anointed (
5656 )
the eyes of the blind man with the clay ,
*
And said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Go (
5720 ),
wash (
5669 )
in the pool of Siloam , (
which is by interpretation (
5743 ),
Sent (
5772 ).)
He went his way (
5627 )
therefore ,
and washed (
5668 ),
and came (
5627 )
seeing (
5723 ).
*
The neighbours therefore ,
and they which before had seen (
5723 )
him that he was (
5713 )
blind ,
said (
5707 ),
Is (
5748 )
not this he that sat (
5740 )
and begged (
5723 )?
*
Some said (
5707 ),
This is he (
5748 ):
others said ,
He is (
5748 )
like him :
but he said (
5707 ),
I am (
5748 )
he .
*
Therefore said they (
5707 )
unto him ,
How were thine eyes opened (
5681 )?
*
He answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 ),
A man that is called (
5746 )
Jesus made (
5656 )
clay ,
and anointed (
5656 )
mine eyes ,
and said (
5627 )
unto me ,
Go (
5720 )
to the pool of Siloam ,
and wash (
5669 ):
and I went (
5631 )
and washed (
5671 ),
and I received sight (
5656 ).
*
Then said they (
5627 )
unto him ,
Where is (
5748 )
he ?
He said (
5719 ),
I know (
5758 )
not .
*
They brought (
5719 )
to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind .
*
And it was (
5713 )
the sabbath day when Jesus made (
5656 )
the clay ,
and opened (
5656 )
his eyes .
*
Then again the Pharisees also asked (
5707 )
him how he had received his sight (
5656 ).
He said (
5627 )
unto them ,
He put (
5656 )
clay upon mine eyes ,
and I washed (
5668 ),
and do see (
5719 ).
*
Therefore said (
5707 )
some of the Pharisees ,
This man is (
5748 )
not of God ,
because he keepeth (
5719 )
not the sabbath day .
Others said (
5707 ),
How can (
5736 )
a man that is a sinner do (
5721 )
such miracles ?
And there was (
5713 )
a division among them .
*
They say (
5719 )
unto the blind man again ,
What sayest (
5719 )
thou of him ,
that he hath opened (
5656 )
thine eyes ?
He said (
5627 ),
He is (
5748 )
a prophet .
*
But the Jews did not believe (
5656 )
concerning him ,
that he had been (
5713 )
blind ,
and received his sight (
5656 ),
until they called (
5656 )
the parents of him that had received his sight (
5660 ).
*
And they asked (
5656 )
them ,
saying (
5723 ),
Is (
5748 )
this your son ,
who ye say (
5719 )
was born (
5681 )
blind ?
how then doth he now see (
5719 )?
*
His parents answered (
5662 )
them and said (
5627 ),
We know (
5758 )
that this is (
5748 )
our son ,
and that he was born (
5681 )
blind :
*
But by what means he now seeth (
5719 ),
we know (
5758 )
not ;
or who hath opened (
5656 )
his eyes ,
we know (
5758 )
not :
he is (
5719 )
of age ;
ask (
5657 )
him :
he shall speak (
5692 )
for himself .
*
These words spake (
5627 )
his parents ,
because they feared (
5711 )
the Jews :
for the Jews had agreed (
5717 )
already ,
that if any man did confess (
5661 )
that he was Christ ,
he should be (
5638 )
put out of the synagogue .
*
Therefore said (
5627 )
his parents ,
He is (
5719 )
of age ;
ask (
5657 )
him .
*
Then again called they (
5656 )
the man that was (
5713 )
blind ,
and said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Give (
5628 )
God the praise :
we know (
5758 )
that this man is (
5748 )
a sinner .
*
He answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 ),
Whether he be (
5748 )
a sinner or no ,
I know (
5758 )
not :
one thing I know (
5758 ),
that ,
whereas I was (
5752 )
blind ,
now I see (
5719 ).
*
Then said they (
5627 )
to him again ,
What did he (
5656 )
to thee ?
how opened he (
5656 )
thine eyes ?
*
He answered (
5662 )
them ,
I have told (
5627 )
you already ,
and ye did not hear (
5656 ):
wherefore would (
5719 )
ye hear (
5721 )
it again ?
will (
5719 )
ye also be (
5635 )
his disciples ?
*
Then they reviled (
5656 )
him ,
and said (
5627 ),
Thou art (
5748 )
his disciple ;
but we are (
5748 )
Moses disciples .
*
We know (
5758 )
that God spake (
5758 )
unto Moses :
as for this fellow ,
we know (
5758 )
not from whence he is (
5748 ).
*
The man answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 )
unto them ,
Why herein is (
5748 )
a marvellous thing ,
that ye know (
5758 )
not from whence he is (
5748 ),
and yet he hath opened (
5656 )
mine eyes .
*
Now we know (
5758 )
that God heareth (
5719 )
not sinners :
but if any man be (
5753 )
a worshipper of God ,
and doeth (
5725 )
his will ,
him he heareth (
5719 ).
*
Since the world began was it not heard (
5681 )
that any man opened (
5656 )
the eyes of one that was born (
5772 )
blind .
*
If this man were (
5713 )
not of God ,
he could (
5711 )
do (
5721 )
nothing .
*
They answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Thou wast altogether born (
5681 )
in sins ,
and dost thou teach (
5719 )
us ?
And they cast (
5627 )
him out .
*
Jesus heard (
5656 )
that they had cast (
5627 )
him out ;
and when he had found (
5631 )
him ,
he said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Dost thou believe (
5719 )
on the Son of God ?
*
He answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 ),
Who is he (
5748 ),
Lord ,
that I might believe (
5661 )
on him ?
*
And Jesus said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Thou hast both seen (
5758 )
him ,
and it is (
5748 )
he that talketh (
5723 )
with thee .
*
And he said (
5713 ),
Lord ,
I believe (
5719 ).
And he worshipped (
5656 )
him .
*
And Jesus said (
5627 ),
For judgment I am come (
5627 )
into this world ,
that they which see (
5723 )
not might see (
5725 );
and that they which see (
5723 )
might be made (
5638 )
blind .
*
And some of the Pharisees which were (
5752 )
with him heard (
5656 )
these words ,
and said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Are (
5748 )
we blind also ?
*
Jesus said (
5627 )
unto them ,
If ye were (
5713 )
blind ,
ye should have (
5707 )
no sin :
but now ye say (
5719 ),
We see (
5719 );
therefore your sin remaineth (
5719 ).
*
Verily ,
verily ,
I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
He that entereth (
5740 )
not by the door into the sheepfold ,
but climbeth up (
5723 )
some other way ,
the same is (
5748 )
a thief and a robber .
*
But he that entereth in (
5740 )
by the door is (
5748 )
the shepherd of the sheep .
*
To him the porter openeth (
5719 );
and the sheep hear (
5719 )
his voice :
and he calleth (
5719 )
his own sheep by name ,
and leadeth them out (
5719 ).
*
And when he putteth forth (
5632 )
his own sheep ,
he goeth (
5736 )
before them ,
and the sheep follow (
5719 )
him :
for they know (
5758 )
his voice .
*
And a stranger will they not follow (
5661 ),
but will flee (
5695 )
from him :
for they know (
5758 )
not the voice of strangers .
*
This parable spake (
5627 )
Jesus unto them :
but they understood (
5627 )
not what things they were (
5713 )
which he spake (
5707 )
unto them .
*
Then said (
5627 )
Jesus unto them again ,
Verily ,
verily ,
I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
I am (
5748 )
the door of the sheep .
*
All that ever came (
5627 )
before me are (
5748 )
thieves and robbers :
but the sheep did not hear (
5656 )
them .
*
I am (
5748 )
the door :
by me if any man enter in (
5632 ),
he shall be saved (
5701 ),
and shall go in (
5695 )
and out (
5695 ),
and find (
5692 )
pasture .
*
The thief cometh (
5736 )
not ,
but for to steal (
5661 ),
and to kill (
5661 ),
and to destroy (
5661 ):
I am come (
5627 )
that they might have (
5725 )
life ,
and that they might have (
5725 )
it more abundantly .
*
I am (
5748 )
the good shepherd :
the good shepherd giveth (
5719 )
his life for the sheep .
*
But he that is (
5752 )
an hireling ,
and not the shepherd ,
whose own the sheep are (
5748 )
not ,
seeth (
5719 )
the wolf coming (
5740 ),
and leaveth (
5719 )
the sheep ,
and fleeth (
5719 ):
and the wolf catcheth (
5719 )
them ,
and scattereth (
5719 )
the sheep .
*
The hireling fleeth (
5719 ),
because he is (
5748 )
an hireling ,
and careth (
5719 )
not for the sheep .
*
I am (
5748 )
the good shepherd ,
and know (
5719 )
my sheep ,
and am known (
5743 )
of mine .
*
As the Father knoweth (
5719 )
me ,
even so know (
5719 )
I the Father :
and I lay down (
5719 )
my life for the sheep .
*
And other sheep I have (
5719 ),
which are (
5748 )
not of this fold :
them also I must (
5748 )
bring (
5629 ),
and they shall hear (
5692 )
my voice ;
and there shall be (
5695 )
one fold ,
and one shepherd .
*
Therefore doth my Father love (
5719 )
me ,
because I lay down (
5719 )
my life ,
that I might take (
5632 )
it again .
*
No man taketh (
5719 )
it from me ,
but I lay it down (
5719 )
of myself .
I have (
5719 )
power to lay it down (
5629 ),
and I have (
5719 )
power to take (
5629 )
it again .
This commandment have I received (
5627 )
of my Father .
*
There was (
5633 )
a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings .
*
And many of them said (
5707 ),
He hath (
5719 )
a devil ,
and is mad (
5736 );
why hear ye (
5719 )
him ?
*
Others said (
5707 ),
These are (
5748 )
not the words of him that hath a devil (
5740 ).
Can (
5736 )
a devil open (
5721 )
the eyes of the blind ?
*
And it was (
5633 )
at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication ,
and it was (
5713 )
winter .
*
And Jesus walked (
5707 )
in the temple in Solomons porch .
*
Then came the Jews round about (
5656 )
him ,
and said (
5707 )
unto him ,
How long dost thou make (
5719 )
us to doubt ?
If thou be (
5748 )
the Christ ,
tell (
5628 )
us plainly .
*
Jesus answered (
5662 )
them ,
I told (
5627 )
you ,
and ye believed (
5719 )
not :
the works that I do (
5719 )
in my Fathers name ,
they bear witness (
5719 )
of me .
*
But ye believe (
5719 )
not ,
because ye are (
5748 )
not of my sheep ,
as I said (
5627 )
unto you .
*
My sheep hear (
5719 )
my voice ,
and I know (
5719 )
them ,
and they follow (
5719 )
me :
*
And I give (
5719 )
unto them eternal life ;
and they shall never perish (
5643 ),
neither shall any man pluck (
5692 )
them out of my hand .
*
My Father ,
which gave (
5758 )
them me ,
is (
5748 )
greater than all ;
and no man is able (
5736 )
to pluck (
5721 )
them out of my Fathers hand .
*
I and my Father are (
5748 )
one .
*
Then the Jews took up (
5656 )
stones again to stone (
5661 )
him .
*
Jesus answered (
5662 )
them ,
Many good works have I shewed (
5656 )
you from my Father ;
for which of those works do ye stone (
5719 )
me ?
*
The Jews answered (
5662 )
him ,
saying (
5723 ),
For a good work we stone (
5719 )
thee not ;
but for blasphemy ;
and because that thou ,
being (
5752 )
a man ,
makest (
5719 )
thyself God .
*
Jesus answered (
5662 )
them ,
Is it (
5748 )
not written (
5772 )
in your law ,
I said (
5656 ),
Ye are (
5748 )
gods ?
*
If he called (
5627 )
them gods ,
unto whom the word of God came (
5633 ),
and the scripture cannot (
5736 )
be broken (
5683 );
*
Say (
5719 )
ye of him ,
whom the Father hath sanctified (
5656 ),
and sent (
5656 )
into the world ,
Thou blasphemest (
5719 );
because I said (
5627 ),
I am (
5748 )
the Son of God ?
*
If I do (
5719 )
not the works of my Father ,
believe (
5720 )
me not .
*
But if I do (
5719 ),
though ye believe (
5725 )
not me ,
believe (
5657 )
the works :
that ye may know (
5632 ),
and believe (
5661 ),
that the Father is in me ,
and I in him .
*
Therefore they sought (
5707 )
again to take (
5658 )
him :
but he escaped (
5627 )
out of their hand ,
*
And went away (
5627 )
again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized (
5723 ) (
5713 );
and there he abode (
5656 ).
*
And many resorted (
5627 )
unto him ,
and said (
5707 ),
John did (
5656 )
no miracle :
but all things that John spake (
5627 )
of this man were (
5713 )
true .
*
And many believed (
5656 )
on him there .
*
Now a certain man was (
5713 )
sick (
5723 ),
named Lazarus ,
of Bethany ,
the town of Mary and her sister Martha .
