1AND as he was passing, he saw a man blind from the womb of his mother. 2And his disciples asked him, saying, Raban, who sinned, this or his parents, that blind he should have been born? 3Jeshu saith to them, Neither he sinned, nor his parents; but that there might be seen in him the works of Aloha. 4Me it behoveth to do the works of Him who sent me, while it is to-day: the night cometh when man cannot work. 5So long as I am in the world, I am the Light of the world. 6And when he had said these things, he spat upon the ground, and formed clay from his spittle, and rubbed upon the eyes of the blind, 7and said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Shilucha. And he went, washed, and came seeing. 8But his neighbours, and they who had seen (him) aforetime as he begged, said, Is not this he who sat and begged? 9Some said, It is he; and some said, It is not, but one like him; but he said, I am he. 10They say to him, How were thine eyes opened? 11He answered and said to them, The man whose name is Jeshu made clay, and rubbed upon mine eyes, and said to me, Go, wash in the waters of Shilucha; and I went, washed, and received sight. 12They say to him, Where is he? He saith to them, I know not. 13They brought him who from the beginning was blind to the Pharishee. 14Now it was shabath when Jeshu made the clay and opened his eyes: 15and again the Pharishee questioned him, How didst thou receive sight? He said to them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and received sight. 16And some of the Pharishee said, This man is not from Aloha; for the shabath he keepeth not. But others said, How can a man, a sinner, perform these signs? And there was a division among them. 17They say again to the blind, What sayest thou concerning him, because he hath opened thine eyes? He saith to them, I say that he is the Prophet. 18But believed not concerning him the Jihudoyee that blind he had been and made-to-see, until they called the parents of him who had been made to see, 19and asked them, If this is your son who, you say, was born blind, how now doth he see? 20His parents answered and said, We know that this (is) our son, and that blind he was born. 21But how he now seeth, or who hath opened his eyes, we know not. He also hath entered on his years, ask him: he for himself shall speak. 22These words said his parents, because they feared the Jihudoyee; for the Jihudoyee had determined that if any man should confess him that he was the Meshicha, they would cast him out of the synagogue: 23on this account said his parents, He hath entered on his years, ask him. 24And they called the second time the man who had been blind, and said to him, Glorify Aloha: for we know that this man is a sinner. 25He answered and said to them, Whether he be a sinner, I know not; but one (thing) I know, that I have been blind, and now, behold, I see. 26They say to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he to thee thine eyes? 27He saith to them, I told you, and you heard not: what will you hear? Are you also willing disciples to him to become? 28But they reviled him, and said to him, Thou art the disciple of him; but we are the disciples of Musha. 29And we know that with Musha Aloha spake; but for this, we know not whence he is. 30Answered the man and said to them, At this then we must wonder, that you know not from whence he is, and (yet) mine eyes he hath opened! 31But we know that Aloha the voice of sinners heareth not; but if any man fear him and do his will, him he heareth. 32From of old it hath not been heard that a man hath opened the eyes of one born blind. 33If this were not from Aloha, he could not this have done. 34They answered and say to him, Thou altogether wast born in sins, and art thou teaching us? And they cast him without. 35Jeshu heard that they had cast him without, and he found him, and said to him, Dost thou believe on the Son of Aloha? 36He who had been cured answered and said, Who (is he), my Lord, that I may believe in him? 37Jeshu said to him, Thou hast SEEN him, and He who talketh with thee is He. 38He said, I believe, my Lord! And, falling, he adored him. 39Jeshu said to them, For the judgment of this world am I come, that they who see not may see, and they who see may be made blind. 40And some of the Pharishee who were with him heard these (words), and they said to him, Are we blind also? 41Jeshu saith to them, If blind you were, you would have no sin; but now you say, We see: therefore your sin is confirmed.
