New Testament

John 9:5-15 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

5. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

6. When he had said these things, he spat on the ground, and he made clay from the spittle, and he smeared the clay over his eyes.

7. And he said to him: "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is translated as: one who has been sent). Therefore, he went away and washed, and he returned, seeing.

8. And so the bystanders and those who had seen him before, when he was a beggar, said, "Is this not the one who was sitting and begging?" Some said, "This is he."

9. But others said, "Certainly not, but he is similar to him." Yet truly, he himself said, "I am he."

10. Therefore, they said to him, "How were your eyes opened?"

11. He responded: "That man who is called Jesus made clay, and he anointed my eyes and said to me, 'Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.' And I went, and I washed, and I see."

12. And they said to him, "Where is he?" He said, "I do not know."

13. They brought the one who had been blind to the Pharisees.

14. Now it was the Sabbath, when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.

15. Therefore, again the Pharisees questioned him as to how he had seen. And he said to them, "He placed clay over my eyes, and I washed, and I see."
