John 9:5-12 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

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

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

7. Then he told the man, “Go and wash in the Pool of Siloam.” (Siloam means Sent.) So the man went to the pool. He washed and came back. And he was able to see.

8. Some people had seen this man begging before. They and the man’s neighbors said, “Look! Is this the same man who always sits and begs?”

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

10. They asked, “What happened? How did you get your sight?”

11. He answered, “The man named Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes. Then he told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed and came back seeing.”

12. They asked him, “Where is this man?”The man answered, “I don’t know.”
