John 9:2-10

²and his disciples asked him, saying, 'Rabbi, who did sin, this one or his parents, that he should be born blind?'

³Jesus answered, 'Neither did this one sin nor his parents, but that the works of God may be manifested in him;

⁴it 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: —

⁵when I am in the world, I am a light of the world.'

⁶These 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;

⁸the neighbours, therefore, and those seeing him before, that he was blind, said, 'Is not this he who is sitting and begging?'

⁹others said — 'This is he;' and others — 'He is like to him;' he himself said, — 'I am he.'

¹⁰They said, therefore, to him, 'How were thine eyes opened?'
