Book of Common Prayer

¹⁹ So oun you will say legō to me egō, “ Why tis then oun does he still eti find memphomai fault ? For gar who tis can resist anthistēmi · ho his autos will boulēma?” ²⁰ But menounge who tis are eimi you sy, a mere ō mortal anthrōpos, · ho to criticize antapokrinomai · ho God theos? Certainly the ho thing plasma that is molded plasma may not mē say legō to the ho one who molded plassō it, “ Why tis have you made poieō me egō like houtōs this ?” ²¹ Has echō the ho potter kerameus no ou right exousia to make poieō from ek the ho same autos lump phyrama of ho clay pēlos some hos men pottery skeuos for eis a special timē occasion and de other hos for eis common atimia use? ²² What de if ei God theos, willing thelō · ho to display endeiknymi his ho wrath orgē and kai make gnōrizō known · ho his autos power dynatos, has endured pherō with en great polys patience makrothumia the objects skeuos of wrath orgē prepared katartizō for eis destruction apōleia? ²³ And kai what if he did so in order hina to make gnōrizō known the ho riches ploutos of ho his autos glory doxa to epi the objects skeuos of mercy eleos, which hos he prepared proetoimazō beforehand for eis glory doxa— ²⁴ even kai us hēmeis, whom hos he has called kaleō, not ou only monon from ek the Jews Ioudaios, but alla also kai from ek the Gentiles ethnos. ²⁵ As hōs he legō also kai says legō in en · ho Hosea hōsēe, “ Those ho who were not ou my egō people laos, I will call kaleō ‘ my egō people laos,’ and kai her ho who was not ou beloved agapaō, I will call ‘ beloved agapaō.’” ²⁶ “ And kai it will happen eimi that in en the ho very place topos where hou God said legō to them autos, ‘ You hymeis are not ou my egō people laos,’ there ekei they will be called kaleō ‘ sons hyios of the living zaō God theos.’” ²⁷ Isaiah ēsaias · de cries krazō out concerning hyper · ho Israel Israēl, “ Even if ean the ho number arithmos of the ho sons hyios of Israel Israēl were eimi as hōs the ho sand ammos of the ho sea thalassa, only ho a remnant hypoleimma will be saved sōzō; ²⁸ for gar the Lord kyrios will carry out poieō his sentence logos on epi the ho earth gē, thoroughly synteleō and kai without syntemnō delay .” ²⁹ And kai as kathōs Isaiah ēsaias predicted, “ If ei the Lord kyrios of hosts Sabaōth had not mē left enkataleipō to us hēmeis descendants sperma, we ginomai would an have become ginomai like hōs Sodom Sodoma, and kai would an have resembled homoioō Gomorrah Gomorra.”

³⁰ What tis then oun shall we say legō?— that hoti the Gentiles ethnos who ho did not mē pursue diōkō righteousness dikaiosynē have obtained katalambanō it dikaiosynē, the righteousness dikaiosynē · de that ho is by ek faith pistis; ³¹ but de Israel Israēl, even though it pursued diōkō a law nomos that would produce righteousness dikaiosynē, did not ou attain phthanō it nomos? ³² Why not dia? Because hoti they did not ou pursue it by ek faith pistis, but alla as hōs though it were by ek works ergon. They stumbled proskoptō over the ho stumbling proskomma stone lithos, · ho ³³ as kathōs it is written graphō, “ Behold idou, I am laying tithēmi in en Zion Siōn a stone lithos that makes them stumble proskomma and kai a rock petra that trips skandalon them up ; but kai the ho one who believes pisteuō in epi him autos will not ou be put to shame kataischunō.”

9 · kai As he went paragō on his way , Jesus saw a man anthrōpos blind typhlos from ek birth genetē. ² And kai his autos disciples mathētēs questioned erōtaō him autos, · ho saying legō, “ Rabbi rhabbi, who tis sinned hamartanō, this houtos man or ē · ho his autos parents goneus, that hina he was born gennaō blind typhlos?” ³ Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai, “It is not oute that this houtos man sinned hamartanō, or oute · ho his autos parents goneus; but alla it happened so hina that the ho works ergon of ho God theos might be displayed phaneroō in en him autos. ⁴ We hēmeis must dei do ergazomai the ho works ergon of ho him who sent pempō me egō while heōs it is eimi day hēmera; night nyx is coming erchomai when hote no oudeis one can dynamai work ergazomai. ⁵ As hotan long as I am eimi in en the ho world kosmos, I am eimi the light phōs of the ho world kosmos.”

⁶ After saying legō this houtos, he spat ptyō on the ground chamai and kai made poieō mud pēlos with ek his ho saliva ptysma; then kai he daubed epichriō the ho mud pēlos on epi the ho man’ s autos eyes ophthalmos ⁷ and kai said legō to him autos, “ Go hypagō, wash niptō in eis the ho pool kolymbēthra of ho Siloam Silōam” ( which hos means hermēneuō “ Sent apostellō”). So oun he went aperchomai away and kai washed niptō, and kai came erchomai back able to see blepō. ⁸ Then oun the ho neighbors geitōn and kai those ho who were used to seeing theōreō him autos · ho previously proteros as hoti a beggar prosaitēs said legō, “ Is eimi not ou this houtos the ho man who used to sit kathēmai and kai beg prosaiteō?” ⁹ Some allos said legō, “ He is eimi the one houtos.” Others allos said legō, “ No ouchi, but alla he looks eimi like homoios him autos.” But he himself ekeinos kept saying legō, “ I egō am eimi the man.” ¹⁰ So oun they asked legō him autos, “ How pōs then oun were your sy eyes ophthalmos opened anoigō?” · ho ¹¹ He ekeinos answered apokrinomai, “ The ho man anthrōpos · ho called legō Jesus Iēsous made poieō mud pēlos, · kai daubed epichriō it on my egō · ho eyes ophthalmos, and kai said legō to me egō, ‘ Go hypagō to eis · ho Siloam Silōam and kai wash niptō.’ So oun I went aperchomai there and kai washed niptō, and I was able to see anablepō.” ¹² · kai They said legō to him autos, “ Where pou is eimi that ekeinos man ?” He replied legō, “ I do not ou know oida.”

¹³ They brought agō to pros the ho Pharisees Pharisaios the man autos who ho had been pote blind typhlos. ¹⁴ Now de it was eimi a Sabbath sabbaton day hēmera when en hos Jesus Iēsous made poieō the ho mud pēlos · ho and kai opened anoigō his autos · ho eyes ophthalmos. ¹⁵ Then oun the ho Pharisees Pharisaios also kai asked erōtaō him autos how pōs he had received anablepō his sight . And de he ho said legō to them autos, “ He daubed epitithēmi mud pēlos on epi my egō · ho eyes ophthalmos, and kai I washed niptō, and kai now I see blepō.” ¹⁶ Then oun some tis of ek the ho Pharisees Pharisaios said legō, “ This houtos man anthrōpos is eimi not ou from para God theos · ho because hoti he does tēreō not ou keep tēreō the ho Sabbath sabbaton.” But de others allos said legō, “ How pōs can dynamai a sinful hamartōlos man anthrōpos perform poieō miraculous signs sēmeion like toioutos this ?” And kai there was eimi a division schisma among en them autos. ¹⁷ So oun they spoke legō again palin to the ho blind typhlos man , “ What tis do you sy say legō about peri him autos, since hoti it was your sy eyes ophthalmos that he opened anoigō?” · ho The ho man · de replied legō, “ He is eimi a prophet prophētēs.”
