1
As he passed by, he saw a man blind from his birth.
2
His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"
3
Jesus answered, "Neither did this man sin, nor his parents. But, that the works of God might be revealed in him,
4
I must work the works of him who sent me, while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.
5
When I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
6
When he had said this, he spat on the ground, made mud with the saliva, anointed the blind man's eyes with the mud,
7
and said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which means "Sent"). So he went away, washed, and came seeing.
8
The neighbors therefore, and those who saw that he was blind before, said, "Isn't this he who sat and begged?"
9
Others said, "It is he." Still others said, "He is like him." He said, "I am he."
10
They said therefore to him, "How were your eyes opened?"
