1 He saw a man who was blind from birth.

2 His disciples asked him: »Rabbi he was born blind. Who sinned, this man or his parents?«

3 Jesus answered: »This man did not sin. Neither did his parents sin. The works of God should be made known in him.

4 »We must work the works of him that sent me while it is day. When the night comes no man can work.

5 »When I am in the world, I am the light of the world.«

6 He spat on the ground and made clay of the spittle. Then he anointed the eyes of the blind with the clay.

7 He told him: »Go wash in the pool of Siloam.« He went there and washed. And he could see!
