Egli rispose: Quell’uomo che si chiama Gesù fece del fango, me ne spalmò gli occhi e mi disse: Vattene a Siloe e làvati. Io quindi sono andato, e mi son lavato e ho ricuperato la vista.
He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.
I Farisei dunque gli domandaron di nuovo anch’essi com’egli avesse ricuperata la vista. Ed egli disse loro: Egli mi ha messo del fango sugli occhi, mi son lavato, e ci veggo.
Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.
Perciò alcuni dei Farisei dicevano: Quest’uomo non è da Dio perché non osserva il sabato. Ma altri dicevano: Come può un uomo peccatore far tali miracoli? E v’era disaccordo fra loro.
Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.
I Giudei dunque non credettero di lui che fosse stato cieco e avesse ricuperata la vista, finché non ebbero chiamati i genitori di colui che avea ricuperata la vista,
But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.
Questo dissero i suoi genitori perché avean paura de’ Giudei; poiché i Giudei avean già stabilito che se uno riconoscesse Gesù come Cristo, fosse espulso dalla sinagoga.
These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
