3Jesus replied, “His being blind was not because he or his parents sinned. Instead, he has been blind in order that people can see the power of God {the power of God can be seen} as a result of what will now happen to him.
4While there is still time, I must do the work that the one who sent me wants me to do. Just like daytime is followed by nighttime when people do not work, at the end of our lives MET it is too late for us to do what God wants.
5While I am still living in this world, I am the one who enables people to know about God, like MET a light enables the people in MTY this world to see what is in the darkness.”
6After he said that, he spat on the ground. He made a little bit of mud with the saliva, and put it on the man's eyes.
7Then he said to him, “Go and wash in Siloam pool!” (That name means ❛sent;❜ just like they sent the water by a channel into the pool, God sent Jesus). So the man went and washed in the pool, and when he went home he was able to see!
8His neighbors and others who previously had seen him when he was begging said, “He is the man who used to sit here and beg, isn't he?”
9Some said, “ Yes, he is.” Others said, “No, he is not. It is just a man who looks like him!” But the man himself said, “Yes, I am that man!”
10So they said to him, “How is it that now you can see?”
11He replied, “The man whose name is Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes. Then he told me to go to Siloam pool and wash. So I went there and washed, and then I could see.”
12They said to him, “Where is that man now?” He said, “I do not know.”
13They took to the Pharisees the man who was previously blind.
