John Chapter 9 (KJV)

KJV ESV NIV NASB NLT

undefined And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.

undefined And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

undefined Jesus answered,Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

undefined I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.

undefined As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

undefined When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,

undefined And said unto him,Go, wash in the pool of Siloam,(which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

undefined The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?

undefined Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.

undefined Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?

undefined He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.

undefined Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.

undefined They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.

undefined And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

undefined Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.

undefined Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

undefined They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.

undefined But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.

undefined And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?

undefined His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:

undefined But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.

undefined These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

undefined Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

undefined Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

undefined He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

undefined Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

undefined He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?

undefined Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses’ disciples.

undefined We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.

undefined The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.

undefined Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

undefined Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.

undefined If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.

undefined They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

undefined Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him,Dost thou believe on the Son of God?

undefined He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?

undefined And Jesus said unto him,Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.

undefined And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.

undefined And Jesus said,For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.

undefined And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?

undefined Jesus said unto them,If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.
