John 8:48-9:12
New American Standard Bible
48 (A)The Jews answered and said to Him, “Do we not rightly say that You are a (B)Samaritan, and You (C)have a demon?” 49 Jesus answered, “I do not (D)have a demon; on the contrary, I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me. 50 But (E)I am not seeking My glory; there is One who seeks it, and judges. 51 Truly, truly I say to you, if anyone (F)follows My word, he will never (G)see death.” 52 (H)The Jews said to Him, “Now we know that You (I)have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets as well; and yet You say, ‘If anyone (J)follows My word, he will never (K)taste of death.’ 53 You (L)are not greater than our father Abraham, who died, are You? The prophets died too. Whom do You make Yourself out to be?” 54 Jesus answered, “(M)If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing; (N)it is My Father who glorifies Me, of whom you say, ‘He is our God’; 55 and (O)you have not come to know Him, (P)but I know Him. And if I say that I do not know Him, I will be (Q)a liar like you; (R)but I do know Him, and I (S)follow His word. 56 (T)Your father Abraham was (U)overjoyed that he would see My day, and he saw it and rejoiced.” 57 (V)So the Jews said to Him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and You have seen Abraham?” 58 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly I say to you, before Abraham [a]was born, [b](W)I am.” 59 Therefore they (X)picked up stones to throw at Him, but Jesus (Y)hid Himself and left the temple grounds.
Healing the Man Born Blind
9 As Jesus passed by, He saw a man who had been blind from birth. 2 And His disciples asked Him, “(Z)Rabbi, who sinned, (AA)this man or his (AB)parents, that he would be born blind?” 3 Jesus answered, “It was neither that this man sinned, nor his parents; but it was (AC)so that the works of God might be displayed in him. 4 We must carry out the works of Him who sent Me (AD)as long as it is day; night is coming, when no one can work. 5 While I am in the world, I am (AE)the Light of the world.” 6 When He had said this, He (AF)spit on the ground, and made mud from the saliva, and applied the mud to his eyes, 7 and said to him, “Go, wash in (AG)the pool of Siloam” (which is translated, Sent). So he left and (AH)washed, and (AI)came back seeing. 8 So the neighbors, and those who previously saw [c]him as a beggar, were saying, “Is this not the one who used to (AJ)sit and beg?” 9 Others were saying, “This is he,” still others were saying, “No, but he is like him.” [d]The man himself kept saying, “I am the one.” 10 So they were saying to him, “How then were your eyes opened?” 11 He answered, “The man who is called Jesus made mud, and spread it on my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to (AK)Siloam and wash’; so I went away and washed, and I received sight.” 12 And they said to him, “Where is He?” He *said, “I do not know.”

Jesus’ Claims About Himself
48 The Jews answered him, “Aren’t we right in saying that you are a Samaritan(A) and demon-possessed?”(B)
49 “I am not possessed by a demon,” said Jesus, “but I honor my Father and you dishonor me. 50 I am not seeking glory for myself;(C) but there is one who seeks it, and he is the judge. 51 Very truly I tell you, whoever obeys my word will never see death.”(D)
52 At this they exclaimed, “Now we know that you are demon-possessed!(E) Abraham died and so did the prophets, yet you say that whoever obeys your word will never taste death. 53 Are you greater than our father Abraham?(F) He died, and so did the prophets. Who do you think you are?”
54 Jesus replied, “If I glorify myself,(G) my glory means nothing. My Father, whom you claim as your God, is the one who glorifies me.(H) 55 Though you do not know him,(I) I know him.(J) If I said I did not, I would be a liar like you, but I do know him and obey his word.(K) 56 Your father Abraham(L) rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it(M) and was glad.”
57 “You are not yet fifty years old,” they said to him, “and you have seen Abraham!”
58 “Very truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born,(N) I am!”(O) 59 At this, they picked up stones to stone him,(P) but Jesus hid himself,(Q) slipping away from the temple grounds.
Jesus Heals a Man Born Blind
9 As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. 2 His disciples asked him, “Rabbi,(R) who sinned,(S) this man(T) or his parents,(U) that he was born blind?”
3 “Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him.(V) 4 As long as it is day,(W) we must do the works of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work. 5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”(X)
6 After saying this, he spit(Y) on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, and put it on the man’s eyes. 7 “Go,” he told him, “wash in the Pool of Siloam”(Z) (this word means “Sent”). So the man went and washed, and came home seeing.(AA)
8 His neighbors and those who had formerly seen him begging asked, “Isn’t this the same man who used to sit and beg?”(AB) 9 Some claimed that he was.
Others said, “No, he only looks like him.”
But he himself insisted, “I am the man.”
10 “How then 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, and then I could see.”(AC)
12 “Where is this man?” they asked him.
“I don’t know,” he said.
