Night comes when no one is able to work.<br \/>\nJoh 9:5  While I am in the world, I am the Light of the world.<br \/>\nJoh 9:6  Saying these things, He spat on the ground and made clay out of the spittle, and anointed clay on the blind one&#8217;s eyes.<br \/>\nJoh 9:7  And He said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, which translated is Sent. Then he went and washed, and came seeing.<br \/>\nJoh 9:8  Then the neighbors and those who formerly saw him, that he was blind, said, Is this one not the one who had sat and begged?<br \/>\nJoh 9:9  Some said, This is he; and others, He is like him. That one said, I am the one.<br \/>\nJoh 9:10  Then they said to him, How were your eyes opened?<br \/>\nJoh 9:11  He answered and said, A man being called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes, and told me, Go to the pool of Siloam and wash. And going and washing I saw anew.<br \/>\nJoh 9:12  Then they said to him, Where is that One? He said, I do not know.<br \/>\nJoh 9:13  They brought him to the Pharisees, the one once blind.<br \/>\nJoh 9:14  And it was a sabbath when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.<br \/>\nJoh 9:15  Then also the Pharisees again asked him how he saw anew. And he said to them, He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and I see.<br \/>\nJoh 9:16  Then some of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, because He does not keep the sabbath. Others said, How can a man, a sinner, do such miraculous signs? And there was a division among them.<br \/>\nJoh 9:17  They said to the blind one again, What do you say about Him, because He opened your eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.<br \/>\nJoh 9:18  Then the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he was blind and saw anew, until they called the parents of him seeing anew.<br \/>\nJoh 9:19  And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, whom you say that he was born blind? Then how does he now see?<br \/>\nJoh 9:20  His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind.<br \/>\nJoh 9:21  But how he now sees, we do not know; or who opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age, ask him. He will speak about himself.<br \/>\nJoh 9:22  His parents said these things because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone should confess Him as Christ, he would be expelled from the synagogue.<br \/>\nJoh 9:23  Because of this, his parents said, He is of age, ask him.<br \/>\nJoh 9:24  Then a second time they called the man who was blind, and they said to him, Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.<br \/>\nJoh 9:25  Then he answered and said, Whether He is a sinner, I do not know. One thing I do know; that being blind, now I see.<br \/>\nJoh 9:26  And they said to him again, What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?<br \/>\nJoh 9:27  He answered them, I told you already, and you did not hear. Why do you wish to hear again? Do you also desire to become disciples of Him?<br \/>\nJoh 9:28  Then they reviled him and said, You are a disciple of that One, but we are disciples of Moses.<br \/>\nJoh 9:29  We know that God has spoken by Moses, but this One, we do not know from where He is.<br \/>\nJoh 9:30  The man answered and said to them, For there is a marvel in this, that you do not know from where He is, and He opened my eyes.<br \/>\nJoh 9:31  But we know that God does not hear sinful ones, but if anyone is God fearing, and does His will, He hears that one.<br \/>\nJoh 9:32  From the beginning of the age it was never heard that anyone opened the eyes of one having been born blind.<br \/>\nJoh 9:33  If this One was not from God, He could not do anything.<br \/>\nJoh 9:34  They answered and said to him, You were born wholly in sins, and do you teach us? And they threw him outside.<br \/>\nJoh 9:35  Jesus heard that they threw him outside, and finding him, He said to him, Do you believe into the Son of God?<br \/>\nJoh 9:36  And he answered and said, Who is He, Lord, that I may believe into Him?<br \/>\nJoh 9:37  And Jesus said to him, Even you have seen Him, and He speaking with you is that One.<br \/>\nJoh 9:38  And he said, I believe, Lord! And he worshiped Him.<br \/>\nJoh 9:39  And Jesus said, I came into this world for judgment, that the ones not seeing may see, and the ones seeing may become blind.<br \/>\nJoh 9:40  And those of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these things, and said to Him, Are we also blind?<br \/>\nJoh 9:41  Jesus said to them, If you were blind, you would have no sin. But now you say, We see; therefore, your sin remains. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joh 9:1 And passing by, He saw a man blind from birth.
