8:43. Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. 8:44. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. 8:45. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. 8:46. Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? 8:47. He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God. 8:48. Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil? 8:49. Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me. 8:50. And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth. 8:51. Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death. 8:52. Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death. 8:53. Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself? 8:54. Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is noth ing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God: 8:55. Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying. 8:56. Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. 8:57. Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? 8:58. Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. 8:59. Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by. 9:1. And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth. 9:2. And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? 9:3. Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. 9:4. I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. 9:5. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. 9:6. 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, 9:7. And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way there fore, and washed, and came seeing. 9:8. The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged? 9:9. Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.

9:10. Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened? 9:11. 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. 9:12. Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not. 9:13. They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind. 9:14. And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes. 9:15. 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. 9:16. 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. 9:17. They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet. 9:18. 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. 9:19. And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see? 9:20. His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind: 9:21. 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. 9:22. 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 syna gogue. 9:23. Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him. 9:24. 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. 9:25. 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. 9:26. Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes? 9:27. 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? 9:28. Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples. 9:29. We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fel low, we know not from whence he is. 9:30. 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. 9:31. Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth. 9:32. Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind. 9:33. If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.
