John 9

et praeteriens vidit hominem caecum a nativitate

And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.

et interrogaverunt eum discipuli sui rabbi quis peccavit hic aut parentes eius ut caecus nasceretur

And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

respondit Iesus neque hic peccavit neque parentes eius sed ut manifestetur opera Dei in illo

Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

me oportet operari opera eius qui misit me donec dies est venit nox quando nemo potest operari

I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.

quamdiu in mundo sum lux sum mundi

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

haec cum dixisset expuit in terram et fecit lutum ex sputo et linuit lutum super oculos eius

When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,

et dixit ei vade lava in natatoria Siloae quod interpretatur Missus abiit ergo et lavit et venit videns

And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

itaque vicini et qui videbant eum prius quia mendicus erat dicebant nonne hic est qui sedebat et mendicabat alii dicebant quia hic est

The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?

alii autem nequaquam sed similis est eius ille dicebat quia ego sum

Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.

dicebant ergo ei quomodo aperti sunt oculi tibi

Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?

respondit ille homo qui dicitur Iesus lutum fecit et unxit oculos meos et dixit mihi vade ad natatoriam Siloae et lava et abii et lavi et vidi

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.

dixerunt ei ubi est ille ait nescio

Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.

adducunt eum ad Pharisaeos qui caecus fuerat

They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.

erat autem sabbatum quando lutum fecit Iesus et aperuit oculos eius

And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

iterum ergo interrogabant eum Pharisaei quomodo vidisset ille autem dixit eis lutum posuit mihi super oculos et lavi et video

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.

dicebant ergo ex Pharisaeis quidam non est hic homo a Deo quia sabbatum non custodit alii dicebant quomodo potest homo peccator haec signa facere et scisma erat in eis

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.

dicunt ergo caeco iterum tu quid dicis de eo qui aperuit oculos tuos ille autem dixit quia propheta est

They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.

non crediderunt ergo Iudaei de illo quia caecus fuisset et vidisset donec vocaverunt parentes eius qui viderat

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.

et interrogaverunt eos dicentes hic est filius vester quem vos dicitis quia caecus natus est quomodo ergo nunc videt

And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?

responderunt eis parentes eius et dixerunt scimus quia hic est filius noster et quia caecus natus est

His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:

quomodo autem nunc videat nescimus aut quis eius aperuit oculos nos nescimus ipsum interrogate aetatem habet ipse de se loquatur

But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.

haec dixerunt parentes eius quia timebant Iudaeos iam enim conspiraverant Iudaei ut si quis eum confiteretur Christum extra synagogam fieret

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.

propterea parentes eius dixerunt quia aetatem habet ipsum interrogate

Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

vocaverunt ergo rursum hominem qui fuerat caecus et dixerunt ei da gloriam Deo nos scimus quia hic homo peccator est

Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

dixit ergo ille si peccator est nescio unum scio quia caecus cum essem modo video

He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

dixerunt ergo illi quid fecit tibi quomodo aperuit tibi oculos

Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

respondit eis dixi vobis iam et audistis quid iterum vultis audire numquid et vos vultis discipuli eius fieri

He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?

maledixerunt ei et dixerunt tu discipulus illius es nos autem Mosi discipuli sumus

Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.

nos scimus quia Mosi locutus est Deus hunc autem nescimus unde sit

We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.

respondit ille homo et dixit eis in hoc enim mirabile est quia vos nescitis unde sit et aperuit meos oculos

The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.

scimus autem quia peccatores Deus non audit sed si quis Dei cultor est et voluntatem eius facit hunc exaudit

Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

a saeculo non est auditum quia aperuit quis oculos caeci nati

Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.

nisi esset hic a Deo non poterat facere quicquam

If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.

responderunt et dixerunt ei in peccatis natus es totus et tu doces nos et eiecerunt eum foras

They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

audivit Iesus quia eiecerunt eum foras et cum invenisset eum dixit ei tu credis in Filium Dei

Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?

respondit ille et dixit quis est Domine ut credam in eum

He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?

et dixit ei Iesus et vidisti eum et qui loquitur tecum ipse est

And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.

at ille ait credo Domine et procidens adoravit eum

And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.

dixit ei Iesus in iudicium ego in hunc mundum veni ut qui non vident videant et qui vident caeci fiant

And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.

et audierunt ex Pharisaeis qui cum ipso erant et dixerunt ei numquid et nos caeci sumus

And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?

dixit eis Iesus si caeci essetis non haberetis peccatum nunc vero dicitis quia videmus peccatum vestrum manet

Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.
