New International Reader's Version

John 9:10-20 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

10. "Then how were your eyes opened?" they asked.

11. He replied, "The man they call Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes. He told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed. Then I could see."

12. "Where is this man?" they asked him. "I don't know," he said.

13. They brought to the Pharisees the man who had been blind.

14. The day Jesus made the mud and opened the man's eyes was a Sabbath.

15. So the Pharisees also asked him how he was able to see. "He put mud on my eyes," the man replied. "Then I washed. And now I can see."

16. Some of the Pharisees said, "Jesus has not come from God. He does not keep the Sabbath day." But others asked, "How can a sinner do such miraculous signs?" So the Pharisees did not agree with each other.

17. Finally they turned again to the blind man. "What do you have to say about him?" they asked. "It was your eyes he opened." The man replied, "He is a prophet."

18. The Jews still did not believe that the man had been blind and now could see. So they sent for his parents.

19. "Is this your son?" they asked. "Is this the one you say was born blind? How is it that now he can see?"

20. "We know he is our son," the parents answered. "And we know he was born blind.
