1 And as Jesus passed by, He saw a man which was blind from his birth.
2 And His disciples asked Him, saying, Master, who wandered from the path, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3 Jesus answered, Neither this man nor his parents has in any way wandered from the path, but this happened so that the works of God would be made visible in him.
4 I must work the works of Him Who sent Me, while it is day: the night comes, when no man can work.
5 As long as I Am in the world, I am the Light of the world.
6 When He had thus spoken, He spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,
7 And said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
8 The neighbors therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he who sat and begged?
9 Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.
10 Therefore said they to him, How were your eyes opened?
11 He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed my eyes, and said to me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.
12 Then said they to him, Where is He? He said, I know not.
13 They brought to the Pharisees him who previously was blind.
14 And it was the Sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
15 Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said to them, He put clay upon my eyes, and I washed, and do see.
16 Therefore some of the Pharisees said, This Man is not of God, because He doesn't keep the Sabbath day. Others said, How can a Man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.
17 They said to the blind man again, What do you say about Him, that He has opened your eyes? He said, He is a prophet.
18 But the Jews didn't believe about him that he had been blind and received his sight until they called the parents of him who had received his sight.
19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?
20 His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
21 But by what means he now sees, we know not; or who has opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.
22 These words spoke his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that He was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
23 Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
24 Then again called they the man who was blind, and said to him, Give God the praise: we know that this Man is a sinner.
25 He answered and said, Whether He be a sinner or no, I know not. One thing I know: I was blind, now I see.
26 Then said they to him again, What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?
27 He answered them, I have told you already, and you did not hear: Why do you desire to hear it again? Is it your desire to also be His disciples?
28 Then they verbally abused Him, and said, You are His disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.
29 We know that God spoke to Moses: as for this Fellow, we don't know where He is from.
30 The man answered and said to them, Why herein is a marvelous thing, that you know not from where He is, and yet He has opened my eyes.
31 Now we know that God does not hear sinners: but if any person is a worshiper of God, and does His will, that person He hears.
32 Since the age began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one who was born blind.
33 If this man were not of God, He could do nothing.
34 They answered and said to him, "You were completely born in sins, and do you teach us?" And they threw him out.
35 Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and, when He had found him, He said to him, "Do you believe into the Son of God?"
36 He answered and said, "Who is He, Lord, that I might believe into Him?"
37 And Jesus said to him, "You have both seen Him, and it is He Who talks with you."
38 And he said, "Lord, I believe." And he worshiped Him.
39 And Jesus said, "For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind."
40 And some of the Pharisees which were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, "Are we blind also?"
41 Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you should have no sin, but now you say, 'We see;' therefore your sin remains."

Young's Literal


1 And as [Jesus] passed by, he saw a man which was blind from [his] birth.
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,
7 And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
8 The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?
9 Some said, This is he: others [said], He is like him: [but] he said, I am [he].
10 Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?
11 He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.
12 Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.
13 They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.
14 And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
15 Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.
16 Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.
17 They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.
18 But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.
19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?
20 His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
21 But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.
22 These [words] spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
23 Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
24 Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.
25 He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner [or no], I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
26 Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?
27 He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear [it] again? will ye also be his disciples?
28 Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses’ disciples.
29 We know that God spake unto Moses: [as for] this [fellow], we know not from whence he is.
30 The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and [yet] he hath opened mine eyes.
31 Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
32 Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.
33 If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.
34 They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?
36 He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?
37 And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.
38 And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.
39 And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.
40 And [some] of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?
41 Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

King James Version


1 And passing by, he saw a man blind from birth,
2 and his disciples asked him, saying, 'Rabbi, who did sin, this one or his parents, that he should be born blind?'
3 Jesus answered, 'Neither did this one sin nor his parents, but that the works of God may be manifested in him;
4 it behoveth me to be working the works of Him who sent me while it is day; night doth come, when no one is able to work: --
5 when I am in the world, I am a light of the world.'
6 These things saying, 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 did wash, and came seeing;
8 the neighbours, therefore, and those seeing him before, that he was blind, said, 'Is not this 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 thine 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 saith, 'I have not known.'
13 They bring him to the Pharisees who once [was] blind,
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, 'Clay he did put upon my eyes, and I did wash -- and I see.'
16 Of the Pharisees, therefore, certain said, 'This man is not from God, because the sabbath he doth not keep;' 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, 'Thou -- what dost thou say of him -- that he opened thine eyes?'
18 and he said -- 'He is a prophet.' The Jews, therefore, did not believe concerning him that he was blind and did receive sight, till that they called the parents of him who received sight,
19 and they asked them, saying, 'Is your son, of whom ye say that he was born blind? how then now doth he 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 seeth, we have not known; or who opened his eyes, we have not known; himself is of age, ask him; he himself shall speak concerning himself.'
22 These things said his parents, because they were afraid of the Jews, for already had the Jews agreed together, that if any one 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, a second time the man who was blind, 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 be 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 to thee? how did he open thine eyes?'
27 He answered them, 'I told you already, and ye did not hear; why again do ye wish to hear? do ye also wish to become his disciples?'
28 They reviled him, therefore, and said, 'Thou art his disciple, and we are Moses' disciples;
29 we have known that God hath spoken to Moses, but this one -- we have not known whence he is.'
30 The man answered and said to them, 'Why, in this is a wonderful thing, that ye have not known whence he is, and he opened my eyes!
31 and we have known that God doth not hear sinners, but, if any one may be a worshipper of God, and may do His will, him He doth hear;
32 from the age it was not heard, that any one did open eyes of one who hath 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 thou wast born altogether, and thou dost teach us!' and they cast him forth without.
35 Jesus heard that they cast him forth without, and having found him, he said to him, 'Dost thou believe in the Son of God?'
36 he answered and said, 'Who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?'
37 And Jesus said to him, 'Thou hast both seen him, and he who is speaking with thee is he;'
38 and he said, 'I believe, sir,' and bowed before him.
39 And Jesus said, 'For judgment I to this world did come, 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 ye were blind, ye were not having had sin, but now ye say -- We see, therefore doth your sin remain.
