TEXT EDITION
Pure Cambridge Edition selected
Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.
¶ They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.
And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
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.
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.
They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.
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.
And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?
His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
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.
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.
Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
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.
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.

    8But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.

    9Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?

9:8¶ The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?

9:9Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.

9:10Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?

9:11He 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.

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

Selected passage

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

Selected passage

9:14And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

Selected passage

9:15Then 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.

Selected passage

9:16Therefore 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.

Selected passage

9:17They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.

Selected passage

9:18But 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.

Selected passage

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

Selected passage

9:20His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:

Selected passage

9:21But 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.

Selected passage

9:22These 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.

Selected passage

9:23Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

Selected passage

9:24Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

Selected passage

9:25He 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.

Selected passage

9:26Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

9:27He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?

9:28Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses’ disciples.

9:29We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.

9:30The 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.

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

9:32Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.

9:33If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.

9:34They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

9:35Jesus 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?

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

9:37And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.

9:38And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.
