3
Yeshua answered, "His blindness is due neither to his sin nor to that of his parents; it happened so that God's power might be seen at work in him.
4
As long as it is day, we must keep doing the work of the One who sent me; the night is coming, when no one can work.
5
While I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
6
Having said this, he spit on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, put the mud on the man's eyes,
7
and said to him, "Go, wash off in the Pool of Shiloach!" (The name means "sent.") So he went and washed and came away seeing.
8
His neighbors and those who previously had seen him begging said, "Isn't this the man who used to sit and beg?"
9
Some said, "Yes, he's the one"; while others said, "No, but he looks like him." However, he himself said, "I'm the one."
10
"How were your eyes opened?" they asked him.
11
He answered, "The man called Yeshua made mud, put it on my eyes, and told me, `Go to Shiloach and wash!' So I went; and as soon as I had washed, I could see."
12
They said to him, "Where is he?" and he replied, "I don't know."
13
They took the man who had been blind to the P'rushim.
