John 9:1-7 ▼

1 While He was passing by, He noticed a man [who had been] blind from birth.

2 His disciples asked Him, “Rabbi (Teacher), who sinned, this man or his parents, that he would be born blind?”

3 Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but it was so that the works of God might be displayed and illustrated in him.

4 We must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; night is coming when no one can work.

5 As long as I am in the world, I am the Light of the world [giving guidance through My word and works].”

6 When He had said this, He spat on the ground and made mud with His saliva, and He spread the mud [like an ointment] on the man’s eyes.

7 And He said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which is translated, Sent). So he went away and washed, and came back seeing.
