World English Bible
1Et præteriens Jesus vidit hominem cæcum a nativitate:
1As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth.
2et interrogaverunt eum discipuli ejus: Rabbi, quis peccavit, hic, aut parentes ejus, ut cæcus nasceretur?
2His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”
3Respondit Jesus: Neque hic peccavit, neque parentes ejus: sed ut manifestentur opera Dei in illo.
3Jesus answered, “This man didn’t sin, nor did his parents, but that the works of God might be revealed in him.
4Me oportet operari opera ejus qui misit me, donec dies est: venit nox, quando nemo potest operari:
4I must work the works of him who sent me while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.
5quamdiu sum in mundo, lux sum mundi.
5While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
6Hæc cum dixisset, exspuit in terram, et fecit lutum ex sputo, et linivit lutum super oculos ejus,
6When he had said this, he spat on the ground, made mud with the saliva, anointed the blind man’s eyes with the mud,
7et dixit ei: Vade, lava in natatoria Siloë (quod interpretatur Missus). Abiit ergo, et lavit, et venit videns.
7and said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which means “Sent”). So he went away, washed, and came back seeing.
8Itaque vicini, et qui viderant eum prius quia mendicus erat, dicebant: Nonne hic est qui sedebat, et mendicabat? Alii dicebant: Quia hic est.
8Therefore the neighbors and those who saw that he was blind before said, “Isn’t this he who sat and begged?”
9Alii autem: Nequaquam, sed similis est ei. Ille vero dicebat: Quia ego sum.
9Others were saying, “It is he.” Still others were saying, “He looks like him.” He said, “I am he.”
10Dicebant ergo ei: Quomodo aperti sunt tibi oculi?
10They therefore were asking him, “How were your eyes opened?”
11Respondit: Ille homo qui dicitur Jesus, lutum fecit: et unxit oculos meos, et dixit mihi: Vade ad natatoria Siloë, et lava. Et abii, et lavi, et video.
11He answered, “A man called Jesus made mud, anointed my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.’ So I went away and washed, and I received sight.”
12Et dixerunt ei: Ubi est ille? Ait: Nescio.
12Then they asked him, “Where is he?” He said, “I don’t know.”
13Adducunt eum ad pharisæos, qui cæcus fuerat.
13They brought him who had been blind to the Pharisees.
14Erat autem sabbatum quando lutum fecit Jesus, et aperuit oculos ejus.
14It was a Sabbath when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.
15Iterum ergo interrogabant eum pharisæi quomodo vidisset. Ille autem dixit eis: Lutum mihi posuit super oculos, et lavi, et video.
15Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. He said to them, “He put mud on my eyes, I washed, and I see.”
16Dicebant ergo ex pharisæis quidam: Non est hic homo a Deo, qui sabbatum non custodit. Alii autem dicebant: Quomodo potest homo peccator hæc signa facere? Et schisma erat inter eos.
16Some therefore of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, because he doesn’t keep the Sabbath.” Others said, “How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?” So there was division among them.
17Dicunt ergo cæco iterum: Tu quid dicis de illo qui aperuit oculos tuos? Ille autem dixit: Quia propheta est.
17Therefore they asked the blind man again, “What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?” He said, “He is a prophet.”
18Non crediderunt ergo Judæi de illo, quia cæcus fuisset et vidisset, donec vocaverunt parentes ejus, qui viderat:
18The Jews therefore didn’t believe concerning him, that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him who had received his sight,
19et interrogaverunt eos, dicentes: Hic est filius vester, quem vos dicitis quia cæcus natus est? quomodo ergo nunc videt?
19and asked them, “Is this your son, whom you say was born blind? How then does he now see?”
20Responderunt eis parentes ejus, et dixerunt: Scimus quia hic est filius noster, et quia cæcus natus est:
20His parents answered them, “We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
21quomodo autem nunc videat, nescimus: aut quis ejus aperuit oculos, nos nescimus; ipsum interrogate: ætatem habet, ipse de se loquatur.
21but how he now sees, we don’t know; or who opened his eyes, we don’t know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself.”
22Hæc dixerunt parentes ejus, quoniam timebant Judæos: jam enim conspiraverunt Judæi, ut si quis eum confiteretur esse Christum, extra synagogam fieret.
22His parents said these things because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if any man would confess him as Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.
23Propterea parentes ejus dixerunt: Quia ætatem habet, ipsum interrogate.
23Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”
24Vocaverunt ergo rursum hominem qui fuerat cæcus, et dixerunt ei: Da gloriam Deo: nos scimus quia hic homo peccator est.
24So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”
25Dixit ergo eis ille: Si peccator est, nescio; unum scio, quia cæcus cum essem, modo video.
25He therefore answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”
26Dixerunt ergo illi: Quid fecit tibi? quomodo aperuit tibi oculos?
26They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”
27Respondit eis: Dixi vobis jam, et audistis: quod iterum vultis audire? numquid et vos vultis discipuli ejus fieri?
27He answered them, “I told you already, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t also want to become his disciples, do you?”
28Maledixerunt ergo ei, et dixerunt: Tu discipulus illius sis: nos autem Moysi discipuli sumus.
28They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
29Nos scimus quia Moysi locutus est Deus; hunc autem nescimus unde sit.
29We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don’t know where he comes from.”
30Respondit ille homo, et dixit eis: In hoc enim mirabile est quia vos nescitis unde sit, et aperuit meos oculos:
30The man answered them, “How amazing! You don’t know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes.
31scimus autem quia peccatores Deus non audit: sed si quis Dei cultor est, et voluntatem ejus facit, hunc exaudit.
31We know that God doesn’t listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does his will, he listens to him.
32A sæculo non est auditum quia quis aperuit oculos cæci nati.
32Since the world began it has never been heard of that anyone opened the eyes of someone born blind.
33Nisi esset hic a Deo, non poterat facere quidquam.
33If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.”
34Responderunt, et dixerunt ei: In peccatis natus es totus, et tu doces nos? Et ejecerunt eum foras.
34They answered him, “You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?” Then they threw him out.
35Audivit Jesus quia ejecerunt eum foras: et cum invenisset eum, dixit ei: Tu credis in Filium Dei?
35Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding him, he said, “Do you believe in the Son of God?”
36Respondit ille, et dixit: Quis est, Domine, ut credam in eum?
36He answered, “Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?”
37Et dixit ei Jesus: Et vidisti eum, et qui loquitur tecum, ipse est.
37Jesus said to him, “You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you.”
38At ille ait: Credo, Domine. Et procidens adoravit eum.
38He said, “Lord, I believe!” and he worshiped him.
39Et dixit Jesus: In judicium ego in hunc mundum veni: ut qui non vident videant, et qui vident cæci fiant.
39Jesus said, “I came into this world for judgment, that those who don’t see may see; and that those who see may become blind.”
40Et audierunt quidam ex pharisæis qui cum ipso erant, et dixerunt ei: Numquid et nos cæci sumus?
40Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, “Are we also blind?”
41Dixit eis Jesus: Si cæci essetis, non haberetis peccatum. Nunc vero dicitis, Quia videmus: peccatum vestrum manet.
41Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, ‘We see.’ Therefore your sin remains.
