John 9:8-15

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁸ Therefore the neighbors, and those who previously saw him as a beggar, were saying, “Is not this the one who used to ^(A)sit and beg?” ⁹ Others were saying, “This is he,” still others were saying, “No, but he is like him.” ^[a]He 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 clay, and anointed my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to ^(B)Siloam and wash’; so I went away and washed, and I received sight.” ¹² They said to him, “Where is He?” He *said, “I do not know.”

Controversy over the Man

¹³ They *brought to the Pharisees the man who was formerly blind. ^14 (C)Now it was a Sabbath on the day when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes. ^15 (D)Then the Pharisees also were asking him again how he received his sight. And he said to them, “He applied clay to my eyes, and I washed, and I see.”
