Jesus Heals a Man Born Blind

1 As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth. 2 And his disciples asked him, ^c“Rabbi, ^dwho sinned, ^ethis man or ^fhis parents, that he was born blind?” 3 Jesus answered, “It was not that this man sinned, or his parents, but ^gthat the works of God might be displayed in him. 4 We must ^hwork the works of him who sent me ⁱwhile it is day; night is coming, when no one can work. 5 As long as I am in the world, ^jI am the light of the world.” 6 Having said these things, ^khe spit on the ground and made mud with the saliva. ^lThen he anointed the man’s eyes with the mud 7 and said to him, “Go, wash in ^mthe pool of Siloam” (which means Sent). So he went and washed and ⁿcame back seeing.

13 They brought to the Pharisees the man who had formerly been blind. 14 ^qNow it was a Sabbath day when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes. 15 ^rSo the Pharisees again asked him how he had received his sight. And he said to them, “He put mud on my eyes, and I washed, and I see.” 16 Some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not ^sfrom God, ^tfor he does not keep the Sabbath.” But others said, ^u“How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?” And ^vthere was a division among them. 17 So they said again to the blind man, “What do you say about him, since he has opened your eyes?” He said, ^w“He is a prophet.”

34 They answered him, ^o“You were born in utter sin, and would you teach us?” And they ^pcast him out.

35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out, and having found him he said, “Do you believe in ^qthe Son of Man?”¹ 36 He answered, ^r“And who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?” 37 Jesus said to him, “You have seen him, and ^sit is he who is speaking to you.” 38 He said, “Lord, I believe,” and he worshiped him. 39 Jesus said, ^t“For judgment I came into this world, ^uthat those who do not see may see, and ^vthose who see may become blind.”
