John 9:3-9 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

3. Jesus answered, “It was not any sin of this man or his parents that caused him to be blind. He was born blind so that he could be used to show what great things God can do.

4. While it is daytime, we must continue doing the work of the one who sent me. The night is coming, and no one can work at night.

5. While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”

6. After Jesus said this, he spit on the dirt, made some mud and put it on the man’s eyes.

7. Jesus told him, “Go and wash in Siloam pool.” (Siloam means “Sent.”) So the man went to the pool, washed and came back. He was now able to see.

8. His neighbors and some others who had seen him begging said, “Look! Is this the same man who always sits and begs?”

9. Some people said, “Yes! He is the one.” But others said, “No, he can’t be the same man. He only looks like him.” So the man himself said, “I am that same man.”
