The night is coming, when no one can work. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>While I am in the world, I am the light of the world." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>When he had said this, he spat on the ground, made mud with the saliva, anointed the blind man's eyes with the mud, <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>and said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which means "Sent"). So he went away, washed, and came back seeing. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>The neighbors therefore, and those who saw that he was blind before, said, "Isn't this he who sat and begged?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>Others were saying, "It is he." Still others were saying, "He looks like him." He said, "I am he." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>They therefore were asking him, "How were your eyes opened?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>He answered, "A man called Jesus made mud, anointed my eyes, and said to me, 'Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash.' So I went away and washed, and I received sight." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>Then they asked him, "Where is he?" He said, "I don't know."</p> <p class="hdg">The Pharisees Investigate</p><p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>They brought him who had been blind to the Pharisees. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>It was a Sabbath when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-15.htm"><b>15</b></a></span>Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. He said to them, "He put mud on my eyes, I washed, and I see." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-16.htm"><b>16</b></a></span>Some therefore of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, because he doesn't keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" There was division among them. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>Therefore they asked the blind man again, "What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-18.htm"><b>18</b></a></span>The Jews therefore did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him who had received his sight, <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-19.htm"><b>19</b></a></span>and asked them, "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>His parents answered them, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind; <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-21.htm"><b>21</b></a></span>but how he now sees, we don't know; or who opened his eyes, we don't know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-22.htm"><b>22</b></a></span>His parents said these things because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if any man would confess him as Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-23.htm"><b>23</b></a></span>Therefore his parents said, "He is of age. Ask him."</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-24.htm"><b>24</b></a></span>So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, "Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-25.htm"><b>25</b></a></span>He therefore answered, "I don't know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-26.htm"><b>26</b></a></span>They said to him again, "What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-27.htm"><b>27</b></a></span>He answered them, "I told you already, and you didn't listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don't also want to become his disciples, do you?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-28.htm"><b>28</b></a></span>They insulted him and said, "You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-29.htm"><b>29</b></a></span>We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don't know where he comes from." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-30.htm"><b>30</b></a></span>The man answered them, "How amazing! You don't know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-31.htm"><b>31</b></a></span>We know that God doesn't listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshipper of God, and does his will, he listens to him. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-32.htm"><b>32</b></a></span>Since the world began it has never been heard of that anyone opened the eyes of someone born blind. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-33.htm"><b>33</b></a></span>If this man were not from God, he could do nothing." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-34.htm"><b>34</b></a></span>They answered him, "You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?" They threw him out.</p> <p class="hdg">Spiritual Sight and Blindness</p><p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-35.htm"><b>35</b></a></span>Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of God?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-36.htm"><b>36</b></a></span>He answered, "Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-37.htm"><b>37</b></a></span>Jesus said to him, "You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-38.htm"><b>38</b></a></span>He said, "Lord, I believe!" and he worshiped him. <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-39.htm"><b>39</b></a></span>Jesus said, "I came into this world for judgment, that those who don't see may see; and that those who see may become blind." <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-40.htm"><b>40</b></a></span>Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, "Are we also blind?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/john/9-41.htm"><b>41</b></a></span>Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, 'We see.' Therefore your sin remains.</p></div></div><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center">The World English Bible is a 1997 revision of the American Standard Version of the Holy Bible, first published in 1901.
