8:59
Cont.- but Jesus was hidden and went forth out
of the temple 9:1 And passing along he saw a man blind from birth. 2 And asked him
the disciples of him saying: Rabbi, who sinned, this man or the parents of
him, that blind he was born? 3 Answered Jesus: Neither this man sinned nor
the parents of him, but that might be manifested the works of God in him. 4
Us it behoves to work the works of the one having sent me while day it is:
comes night when no one can to work. 5 When in the world I am, light I am
of the world. 6 These things having said he spat on the ground and made
clay out of the spittle, and put on of him the clay on the eyes, and said
to him: Go wash in the pool of Siloam (which is translated having been
sent). He went therefore and washed and came seeing. 8 Therefore the
neighbours and the ones beholding him formerly that a beggar he was, said:
Not this man is the one sitting and begging? 9 Some said This is he: others
said No, but like to him he is. That one said I am 10 They said therefore
to him: How then were opened of thee the eyes? 11 Answered that one. The
man being named Jesus clay made and anointed of me the eyes and told me Go
to Siloam and wash: going therefore and washing I saw. 12 And they said to
him: Where is that one? He says I do not know. 13 They lead him to the
Pharisees, the at one time blind 14 Now it was a Sabbath on which day the
clay made Jesus and opened of him the eyes. 15 Again therefore asked him
also the Pharisees how he saw. And he said to them: Clay he put on of me on
the eyes and I washed, and I see. 16 Said therefore of the Pharisees some;
not is 16 Cont This from God man, because the Sabbath he keeps not. But
others said: How can man a sinful such signs to do? And a division there
was among them. 17 They say therefore to the blind man again: What thou
sayest about him, because he opened of thee the eyes? And he said A prophet
he is 18 Did not believe therefore the Jews about him that he was blind and
saw until they called the parents of him of the one having g seen 19 and
asked them saying: This is the some of you, whom ye say that blind he was
born? how then sees he now? 20 Answered therefore the parents of him and
said: We know that this is the son of us and that blind he was born: 21 but
how now he sees not we know, or who opened of him the eyes we know not: him
ask ye, age he has, he about himself will speak. 22 These things said the
parents of him because they feared the Jews: for already had agreed the
Jews that if anyone him should acknowledge to be Christ, put away from the
synagogue ye would be. 23 Therefore the parents of him said Age he has, him
question ye. 24 They called therefore the man a second time who was blind,
and said to him. Give glory to God: we know that this man sinful is. 25
Answered therefore the one. If sinful he is I know not: one thing I know
that blind being now I see. 26 They said therefore to him: What did he to
thee? how opened he of thee the eyes? 27 He answered them: I told you
already and ye heard not: why again wish ye to hear? and also ye wish of
him disciples to become? 28 And they reviled him and said: Thou a disciple
art of that man, but we of Moses are disciples. 29 We know that by Moses
has spoken God, but this man we know not whence he is. 30 Answered the man
and said to them: in this then the marvellous thing is, that ye do not know
whence he is, and he opened of me the eyes.

12:36 These things spoke Jesus and going away was
hidden from them. 37 But so many him signs having done before
them not they believed in him. 38 that the word of Esaias the prophet might
be fulfilled which he said: Lord who believed the report of us? and the arm
of the Lord to whom was it revealed? 39 Therefore they could not to believe
because again said Essias: 40 He has blinded of them the eyes and
hardened of them the heart, that they might not see with the eyes and
understanding with the heart and might turn, and I will cure them. 41 These
things said Esaias because he saw the glory of him, and spoke about him. 42
Nevetherless however even of the rulers many believed in him, but because
of the Pharisees did not confess, lest
put out of the synagogue they should become; 43 for they loved the
glory of men more than the glory of God.
