John 9:1-11 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

1. And passing by, He saw a man, blind from birth.

2. And His taught ones asked Him, saying, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he should be born blind?”

3. יהושע answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of Elohim might be made manifest in him.

4. “It is necessary for Me to work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day – night is coming, when no one is able to work.

5. “While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”

6. Having said this, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva, and applied the clay to the eyes of the blind man.

7. And He said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Shiloaḥ” (which means Sent). So he went and washed, and came seeing.

8. Therefore the neighbours and those who saw him before, that he was blind, said, “Is not this he who was sitting and begging?”

9. Others said, “This is he.” Others said, “He is like him.” He said, “I am.”

10. So they said to him, “How were your eyes opened?”

11. He answered and said, “A Man called יהושע made clay and applied it to my eyes and said to me, ‘Go to the pool of Shiloaḥ and wash.’ And I went and washed, and I received sight.”
