*
As he was walking along ,
he observed a man who had been blind from birth .
*
His disciples asked him , “
Rabbi ,
who sinned ,
this man or his parents ,
that caused him to be born blind ?”
*
Jesus answered ,“
Neither this man nor his parents sinned .
This happened so thatthe works of God might be revealed in him .
*
Imust work the works of the one who sent mewhile it is day .
Night is coming ,
when no one can work .
*
As long as I am in the world ,
I am the light of the world .”
*
After saying this ,
he spit on the ground and made mud with the saliva .
Then he spread the mud on the man '
s eyes
*
and told him ,“
Go and wash in the pool of Siloam ” (
which is translated “
Sent One ”).
So he went off and washed and came back seeing .
*
Then the neighbors and those who had previously seen him as a beggar said , “
This is the man who used to sit and beg ,
isn '
t it ?”
*
Some were saying , “
It is he ,”
while others were saying , “
No ,
but it is someone like him .”
He himself kept saying , “
It is I !”
*
So they said to him , “
How ,
then ,
were your eyes opened ?”
*
He said , “
The man named Jesus made some mud ,
spread it on my eyes ,
and told me ,‘
Go to Siloam and wash .’
So off I went and washed ,
and I received my sight .”
*
They said to him , “
Where is that man ?”
He said , “
I don '
t know !”
