John 9:4-14

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.
