9John 9

CHAP. IX. / 1 The man that was borne blinde restored to sight. 8 Hee is brought to the Pharises. 13 They are offended at it, and excommunicate him: 35 But hee is receiued of Iesus, and confesseth him.

1And as Iesus passed by, he saw a man which was blinde from his birth.Select John 9:1

2And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sinne, this man, or his parents, that he was borne blinde?Select John 9:2

3Iesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the workes of God should be made manifest in him.Select John 9:3

4I must worke the workes of him that sent me, while it is day: the night commeth when no man can worke.Select John 9:4

5As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.Select John 9:5

6When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spettle, and he anointed the eyes of the blinde man with the clay,Select John 9:6

7And said vnto him, Goe wash in the poole of Siloam (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therfore, and washed, and came seeing.Select John 9:7

8The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seene him, that he was blinde, said, Is not this he that sate and begged?Select John 9:8

9Some said, This is hee: others said, Hee is like him: but hee sayd, I am hee.Select John 9:9

10Therefore said they vnto him, How were thine eyes opened?Select John 9:10

11He answered and said, A man that is called Iesus, made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said vnto me, Goe to the poole of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I receiued sight.Select John 9:11

12Then said they vnto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.Select John 9:12

13They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.Select John 9:13

14And it was the Sabbath day when Iesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.Select John 9:14

15Then againe the Pharisees also asked him how he had receiued his sight. He said vnto them, Hee put clay vpon mine eyes, and I washed, and doe see.Select John 9:15

16Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because hee keepeth not the Sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner, doe such miracles? and there was a diuision among them.Select John 9:16

17They say vnto the blind man againe, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, Hee is a Prophet.Select John 9:17

18But the Iewes did not beleeue concerning him, that hee had bin blind, and receiued his sight, vntill they called the parents of him that had receiued his sight.Select John 9:18

19And they asked them, saying, Is this your sonne, who ye say was borne blind? how then doth he now see?Select John 9:19

20His parents answered them, and said, We know that this is our sonne, and that he was borne blind:Select John 9:20

21But by what meanes he now seeth, we know not, or who hath opened his eyes we know not: hee is of age, aske him, he shall speake for himselfe.Select John 9:21

22These words spake his parents, because they feared the Iewes: for the Iewes had agreed already, that if any man did confesse that he was Christ, he should be put out of the Synagogue.Select John 9:22

23Therefore said his parents, He is of age, aske him.Select John 9:23

24Then againe called they the man that was blind, and said vnto him, Giue God the praise, we know that this man is a sinner.Select John 9:24

25He 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.Select John 9:25

26Then saide they to him againe, What did he to thee? How opened hee thine eyes?Select John 9:26

27He answered them, I haue told you already, and ye did not heare: wherfore would you heare it againe? Will ye also be his disciples?Select John 9:27

28Then they reuiled him, and said, Thou art his disciple, but we are Moses disciples.Select John 9:28

29Wee know that God spake vnto Moses: as for this fellow, we knowe not from whence he is.Select John 9:29

30The man answered, and said vnto them, Why herein is a marueilous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.Select John 9:30

31Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man bee a worshipper of God, and doth his will, him he heareth.Select John 9:31

32Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was borne blinde:Select John 9:32

33If this man were not of God, he could doe nothing.Select John 9:33

34They answered, and saide vnto him, Thou wast altogether borne in sinnes, and doest thou teach vs? And they cast him out.Select John 9:34

35Iesus heard that they had cast him out; and when hee had found him, he said vnto him, Doest thou beleeue on the Sonne of God?Select John 9:35

36He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might beleeue on him?Select John 9:36

37And Iesus said vnto him, Thou hast both seene him, and it is he that talketh with thee.Select John 9:37

38And he said, Lord, I beleeue: and he worshipped him.Select John 9:38

39And Iesus said, For iudgment I am come into this world, that they which see not, might see, and that they which see, might be made blind.Select John 9:39

40And some of the Pharisees which were with him, heard these words, and saide vnto him, Are wee blinde also?Select John 9:40

41Iesus saide vnto them, If yee were blind, ye should haue no sinne: but now ye say, We see, therfore your sinne remaineth.Select John 9:41
