1 E, passando Jesus, viu um homem cego de nascença.
2 E os seus discípulos lhe perguntaram, dizendo: Rabi, quem pecou, este ou seus pais, para que nascesse cego?
3 Jesus respondeu: Nem ele pecou nem seus pais; mas foi assim para que se manifestem nele as obras de Deus.
4 Convém que eu faça as obras daquele que me enviou, enquanto é dia; a noite vem, quando ninguém pode trabalhar.
5 Enquanto estou no mundo, sou a luz do mundo.
6 Tendo dito isto, cuspiu na terra, e com a saliva fez lodo, e untou com o lodo os olhos do cego.
7 E disse-lhe: Vai, lava-te no tanque de Siloé (que significa o Enviado). Foi, pois, e lavou-se, e voltou vendo.
8 Então os vizinhos, e aqueles que dantes tinham visto que era cego, diziam: Não é este aquele que estava assentado e mendigava?
9 Uns diziam: É este. E outros: Parece-se com ele. Ele dizia: Sou eu.
10 Diziam-lhe, pois: Como se te abriram os olhos?
11 Ele respondeu, e disse: O homem, chamado Jesus, fez lodo, e untou-me os olhos, e disse-me: Vai ao tanque de Siloé, e lava-te. Então fui, e lavei-me, e vi.
12 Disseram-lhe, pois: Onde está ele? Respondeu: Não sei.
13 Levaram, pois, aos fariseus o que dantes era cego.
14 E era sábado quando Jesus fez o lodo e lhe abriu os olhos.
15 Tornaram, pois, também os fariseus a perguntar-lhe como vira, e ele lhes disse: Pôs-me lodo sobre os olhos, lavei-me, e vejo.
16 Então alguns dos fariseus diziam: Este homem não é de Deus, pois não guarda o sábado. Diziam outros: Como pode um homem pecador fazer tais sinais? E havia dissensão entre eles.
17 Tornaram, pois, a dizer ao cego: Tu, que dizes daquele que te abriu os olhos? E ele respondeu: Que é profeta.
18 Os judeus, porém, não creram que ele tivesse sido cego, e que agora visse, enquanto não chamaram os pais do que agora via.
19 E perguntaram-lhes, dizendo: É este o vosso filho, que vós dizeis ter nascido cego? Como, pois, vê agora?
20 Seus pais lhes responderam, e disseram: Sabemos que este é o nosso filho, e que nasceu cego;
21 Mas como agora vê, não sabemos; ou quem lhe tenha aberto os olhos, não sabemos. Tem idade, perguntai-lho a ele mesmo; e ele falará por si mesmo.
22 Seus pais disseram isto, porque temiam os judeus. Porquanto já os judeus tinham resolvido que, se alguém confessasse ser ele o Cristo, fosse expulso da sinagoga.
23 Por isso é que seus pais disseram: Tem idade, perguntai-lho a ele mesmo.
24 Chamaram, pois, pela segunda vez o homem que tinha sido cego, e disseram-lhe: Dá glória a Deus; nós sabemos que esse homem é pecador.
25 Respondeu ele pois, e disse: Se é pecador, não sei; uma coisa sei, é que, havendo eu sido cego, agora vejo.
26 E tornaram a dizer-lhe: Que te fez ele? Como te abriu os olhos?
27 Respondeu-lhes: Já vo-lo disse, e não ouvistes; para que o quereis tornar a ouvir? Quereis vós porventura fazer-vos também seus discípulos?
28 Então o injuriaram, e disseram: Discípulo dele sejas tu; nós, porém, somos discípulos de Moisés.
29 Nós bem sabemos que Deus falou a Moisés, mas este não sabemos de onde é.
30 O homem respondeu, e disse-lhes: Nisto, pois, está a maravilha, que vós não saibais de onde ele é, e contudo me abrisse os olhos.
31 Ora, nós sabemos que Deus não ouve a pecadores; mas, se alguém é temente a Deus, e faz a sua vontade, a esse ouve.
32 Desde o princípio do mundo nunca se ouviu que alguém abrisse os olhos a um cego de nascença.
33 Se este não fosse de Deus, nada poderia fazer.
34 Responderam eles, e disseram-lhe: Tu és nascido todo em pecados, e nos ensinas a nós? E expulsaram-no.
35 Jesus ouviu que o tinham expulsado e, encontrando-o, disse-lhe: Crês tu no Filho de Deus?
36 Ele respondeu, e disse: Quem é ele, Senhor, para que nele creia?
37 E Jesus lhe disse: Tu já o tens visto, e é aquele que fala contigo.
38 Ele disse: Creio, Senhor. E o adorou.
39 E disse-lhe Jesus: Eu vim a este mundo para juízo, a fim de que os que não vêem vejam, e os que vêem sejam cegos.
40 E aqueles dos fariseus, que estavam com ele, ouvindo isto, disseram-lhe: Também nós somos cegos?
41 Disse-lhes Jesus: Se fôsseis cegos, não teríeis pecado; mas como agora dizeis: Vemos; por isso o vosso pecado permanece.
1 And as he passed on, he saw a man blind from birth.
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he would be born blind?
3 Jesus answered, Neither this man sinned, nor his parents, but that the works of God might be manifested in him.
4 I must work the works of him who sent me while it is day. Night comes when no man can work.
5 When I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 Having said these things, he spat toward the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and rubbed the clay on the eyes of the blind man.
7 And he said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam (which is translated, He who has been sent). Therefore he went and washed, and came seeing.
8 The neighbors therefore and those who saw him formerly, that he was blind, said, Is this not he who sits and begs?
9 Others said, He is this man, but others said, He is like him. That man said, I am.
10 They said to him therefore, How were thine eyes opened?
11 That man answered and said, A man called Jesus made clay, and rubbed on my eyes, and said to me, Go to the pool of Siloam and wash. And after going and washing, I received sight.
12 Therefore they said to him, Where is that man? He says, I do not know.
13 They brought him to the Pharisees--the former blind man.
14 Now it was a Sabbath when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.
15 Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received sight. And he said to them, He put clay upon my eyes, and I washed, and I see.
16 Therefore some of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, because he does not keep the Sabbath. Other men said, How is a sinful man able to do such signs? And there was division among them.
17 They say again to the blind man, What do thou say about him, that he opened thine eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.
18 The Jews therefore did not believe about him, that he had been blind, and had received sight, until they called the parents of the man who had received sight.
19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, whom ye say that he was born blind? How then does he now see?
20 And his parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind,
21 but how he now sees, we know not. Or who opened his eyes, we know not. He has maturity, ask him. He will speak for himself.
22 His parents spoke these things because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man confessed him as Christ, he should become excommunicated from the synagogue.
23 Because of this his parents said, He has maturity, ask him.
24 So they called the man who was blind, for a second time, and said to him, Give glory to God. We know that this man is sinful.
25 That man therefore answered and said, If he is sinful, I know not. One thing I know, that being blind, now I see.
26 But again they said to him, What did he do to thee? How did he open thine eyes?
27 He answered them, I told you already, and ye did not listen. Why do ye want to hear it again? Do ye not also want to become his disciples?
28 They reviled him, and said, Thou are a disciple of that man, but we are disciples of Moses.
29 We know that God has spoken to Moses, but this man, we know not where he is from.
30 The man answered and said to them, For in this it is amazing, that ye know not where he is from, and yet he opened my eyes.
31 And we know that God does not listen to sinners, but if any man is a worshiper of God, and does his will, he listens to this man.
32 From the age, it was not heard that any man opened the eyes of a man who was born blind.
33 If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.
34 They answered and said to him, Thou were born entirely in sins, and thou teach us. And they cast him outside.
35 Jesus heard that they cast him outside. And having found him, he said to him, Do thou believe in the Son of God?
36 That man answered and said, And who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?
37 And Jesus said to him, Thou have both seen him, and he is that man who speaks with thee.
38 And he affirmed, Lord, I believe. And he worshiped him.
39 And Jesus said, For judgment I came into this world, so that those not seeing might see, and those who see might become blind.
40 And those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and they said to him, Are we also blind?
41 Jesus said to them, If ye were blind, ye would have no sin, but now ye say, We see, therefore your sin remains.
