John 9:4-9 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

4. It is necessary for us to do the deeds of the one who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work!

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

6. When he had said these things, he spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva, and smeared the clay on his eyes.

7. And he said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which is translated “sent”). So he went and washed and came back seeing.

8. Then the neighbors and those who saw him previously (because he was a beggar) began to say, “Is this man not the one who used to sit and beg?”

9. Others were saying, “It is this man”; others were saying, “No, but he is like him.” That one was saying, “I am he!”
