STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 וַיְהִי בְּעָבְרוֹ וַיַּרְא אִישׁ וְהוּא עִוֵּר מִיּוֹם הִוָּלְדוֹ	1 And Jesus passing by, saw a man, who was blind from his birth:
2 וַיִּשְׁאֲלוּ אֹתוֹ תַּלְמִידָיו לֵאמֹר רַבִּי מִי־הוּא אֲשֶׁר חָטָא הֲזֶה אִם־יֹלְדָיו כִּי נוֹלַד עִוֵּר	2 And his disciples asked him: Rabbi, who hath sinned, this man, or his parents, that he should be born blind?
3 וַיַּעַן יֵשׁוּעַ לֹא זֶה חָטָא וְלֹא יוֹלְדָיו אַךְ לְמַעַן יִגָּלוּ־בוֹ מַעַלְלֵי־אֵל	3 Jesus answered: Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
4 עָלַי לַעֲשֹוֹת מַעֲשֵׂי שֹׁלְחִי בְּעוֹד יוֹם יָבוֹא הַלַּיְלָה אֲשֶׁר־בּוֹ לֹא־יוּכַל אִישׁ לִפְעֹל	4 I must work the works of him that sent me, whilst it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
5 בִּהְיוֹתִי בָּעוֹלָם אוֹר הָעוֹלָם אָנִי	5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 וַיְהִי כְּדַבְּרוֹ זֹאת וַיָּרָק עַל־הָאָרֶץ וַיַּעַשׂ טִיט מִן־הָרוֹק וַיִּמְרַח אֶת־הַטִּיט עַל־עֵינֵי הָעִוֵּר	6 When he had said these things, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and spread the clay on his eyes,
7 וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו לֵךְ וּרְחַץ בִּבְרֵכַת הַשִּׁלֹּחַ פֵּרוּשׁוֹ שָׁלוּחַ וַיֵּלֶךְ וַיִּרְחַץ וַיָּבֹא וְעֵינָיו רֹאוֹת	7 And said to him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloe, which is interpreted, Sent. He went therefore, and washed, and he came seeing.
8 וַיֹּאמְרוּ שְׁכֵנָיו וַאֲשֶׁר רָאוּ אֹתוֹ לְפָנִים כִּי־עִוֵּר הוּא הֲלֹא־זֶה הוּא הַיּשֵׁב וּמְשָׁאֵל	8 The neighbours therefore, and they who had seen him before that he was a beggar, said: Is not this he that sat and begged? Some said: This is he.
9 אֵלֶּה אָמְרוּ כִּי־הוּא זֶה וְאֵלֶּה אָמְרוּ אַךְ־דּוֹמֶה לּוֹ וְהוּא אָמַר אֲנִי הוּא	9 But others said: No, but he is like him. But he said: I am he.
10 וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו בַּמָּה אֵפוֹא נִפְקְחוּ עֵינֶיךָ	10 They said therefore to him: How were thy eyes opened?
11 וַיַּעַן וַיֹּאמֶר אִישׁ אֲשֶׁר־נִקְרָא שְׁמוֹ יֵשׁוּעַ עָשָׂה טִיט וַיִּמְרַח עַל־עֵינַי וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי לֵךְ וּרְחַץ בִּבְרֵכַת הַשִּׁלֹּחַ וָאֵלֵךְ וָאֶרְחַץ וַתָּאֹרְנָה עֵינָי	11 He answered: That man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed my eyes, and said to me: Go to the pool of Siloe, and wash. And I went, I washed, and I see.
12 וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו אַיּוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר לֹא יָדָעְתִּי	12 And they said to him: Where is he? He saith: I know not.
13 וַיָּבִיאוּ אֶת־הָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר הָיָה עִוֵּר לְפָנִים אֶל־הַפְּרוּשִׁים	13 They bring him that had been blind to the Pharisees.
14 וְהַיּוֹם אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה־בוֹ יֵשׁוּעַ אֶת־הַטִּיט וַיִּפְקַח אֶת־עֵינָיו שַׁבָּת הָיָה	14 Now it was the sabbath, when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
15 וַיּוֹסִיפוּ לִשְׁאֹל אֹתוֹ גַּם־הַפְּרוּשִׁים אֵיךְ נִפְקְחוּ עֵינָיו וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם טִיט שָׂם עַל־עֵינַי וָאֶרְחַץ וְהִנְנִי רֹאֶה	15 Again therefore the Pharisees asked him, how he had received his sight. But he said to them: He put clay upon my eyes, and I washed, and I see.
16 וַיֹּאמְרוּ מִקְצָת הַפְּרוּשִׁים זֶה הָאִישׁ לֹא מֵאֱלֹהִים הוּא כִּי לֹא־יִשְׁמֹר אֶת־הַשַּׁבָּת וַאֲחֵרִים אָמְרוּ אֵיכָה יוּכַל אִישׁ חֹטֵא לַעֲשֹוֹת אֹתוֹת כָּאֵלֶּה וַיְהִי־רִיב בֵּינֵיהֶם	16 Some therefore of the Pharisees said: This man is not of God, who keepeth not the sabbath. But others said: How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.
17 וַיּוֹסִיפוּ וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֶל־הָעִוֵּר מַה־תֹּאמַר אַתָּה עָלָיו אֲשֶׁר פָּקַח עֵינֶיךָ וַיֹּאמֶר נָבִיא הוּא	17 They say therefore to the blind man again: What sayest thou of him that hath opened they eyes? And he said: He is a prophet.
18 וְלֹא־הֶאֱמִינוּ הַיְּהוּדִים עָלָיו כִּי עִוֵּר הָיָה וְאֹרוּ עֵינָיו עַד־אֲשֶׁר קָרְאוּ אֶל־יוֹלְדֵי הַנִּרְפָּא	18 The Jews then did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight,
19 וַיִּשְׁאֲלוּ אֹתָם לֵאמֹר הֲזֶה הוּא בִנְכֶם אֲשֶׁר אֲמַרְתֶּם כִּי נוֹלַד עִוֵּר וְאֵיכָה הוּא רֹאֶה עָתָּה	19 And asked them, saying: Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then doth he now see?
20 וַיַּעֲנוּ אֹתָם יוֹלְדָיו וַיֹּאמְרוּ יָדַעְנוּ כִּי זֶה הוּא בְנֵנוּ וְכִי נוֹלַד עִוֵּר	20 His parents answered them, and said: We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
21 אֲבָל אֵיךְ הוּא רֹאֶה עַתָּה אוֹ מִי פָקַח אֶת־עֵינָיו אֲנַחְנוּ לֹא יָדָעְנוּ הֲלֹא בֶן־דַּעַת הוּא שַׁאֲלוּ אֶת־פִּיהוּ וְהוּא יַגִּיד מֶה־הָיָה לוֹ	21 But how he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: ask himself: he is of age, let him speak for himself.
22 כָּזֹאת דִּבְּרוּ יוֹלְדָיו מִיִּרְאָתָם אֶת־הַיְּהוּדִים כִּי הַיְּהוּדִים כְּבָר נוֹעֲצוּ לְנַדּוֹת אֶת־כָּל־אֲשֶׁר יוֹדֶה כִּי הוּא הַמָּשִׁיחַ	22 These things his parents said, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had already agreed among themselves, that if any man should confess him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
23 עַל־כֵּן אָמְרוּ יוֹלְדָיו בֶּן־דַּעַת הוּא שַׁאֲלוּ אֶת־פִּיהוּ	23 Therefore did his parents say: He is of age, ask himself.
24 וַיִּקְרְאוּ שֵׁנִית לָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר הָיָה עִוֵּר וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו תֵּן כָּבוֹד לֵאלֹהִים אֲנַחְנוּ יָדַעְנוּ כִּי־הָאִישׁ הַזֶּה חֹטֵא הוּא	24 They therefore called the man again that had been blind, and said to him: Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.
25 וַיַּעַן וַיֹּאמַר אִם־הָאִישׁ חֹטֵא הוּא אֵינֶנִּי יֹדֵעַ אַחַת יָדַעְתִּי כִּי עִוֵּר הָיִיתִי וְעַתָּה הִנְנִי רֹאֶה	25 He said therefore to them: If he be a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see.
26 וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו עוֹד מֶה־עָשָׂה לְךָ אֵיכָה פָּקַח עֵינֶיךָ	26 They said then to him: What did he to thee? How did he open thy eyes?
27 וַיַּעַן אֹתָם כְּבָר אָמַרְתִּי לָכֶם הֲלֹא שְׁמַעְתֶּם וּמַה־לָּכֶם לִשְׁמֹעַ שֵׁנִית הֲתֹאבוּ גַם־אַתֶּם לִהְיוֹת תַּלְמִידָיו	27 He answered them: I have told you already, and you have heard: why would you hear it again? will you also become his disciples?
28 וַיְחָרְפוּ אֹתוֹ וַיֹּאמְרוּ אַתָּה תַלְמִידוֹ וַאֲנַחְנוּ תַּלְמִידָיו שֶׁל־משֶׁה	28 They reviled him therefore, and said: Be thou his disciple; but we are the disciples of Moses.
29 אֲנַחְנוּ יוֹדְעִים כִּי אֶל־משֶׁה דִּבֶּר הָאֱלֹהִים וְאֶת־זֶה לֹא יָדַעְנוּ מֵאַיִן הוּא	29 We know that God spoke to Moses: but as to this man, we know not from whence he is.
30 וַיַּעַן הָאִישׁ וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם זֹאת הִיא הַפְלֵא וָפֶלֶא כִּי־לֹא יְדַעְתֶּם מֵאַיִן הוּא וְהוּא פָקַח אֶת־עֵינָי	30 The man answered, and said to them: Why, herein is a wonderful thing, that you know not from whence he is, and he hath opened my eyes.
31 וְהִנֵּה יָדַעְנוּ כִּי אֶת־הַחַטָּאִים לֹא־יִשְׁמַע אֵל כִּי אִם־אֶת־יְרֵא הָאֱלֹהִים וְעֹשֵׂה רְצוֹנוֹ אֹתוֹ יִשְׁמָע	31 Now we know that God doth not hear sinners: but if a man be a server of God, and doth his will, him he heareth.
32 מֵעוֹלָם לֹא נִשְׁמַע כִּי־פָקַח אִישׁ עֵינֵי עִוֵּר מֵרָחֶם	32 From the beginning of the world it hath not been heard, that any man hath opened the eyes of one born blind.
33 לוּלֵא הָיָה זֶה מֵאֵת אֱלֹהִים לֹא הָיָה יָכֹל לַעֲשׂוֹת מְאוּמָה	33 Unless this man were of God, he could not do any thing.
34 וַיַּעֲנוּ וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו הֵן בַּחֲטָאִים נוֹלַדְתָּ כֻלָּךְ וְאַתָּה תְלַמְּדֵנוּ וַיֶּהְדְּפֻהוּ הַחוּצָה	34 They answered, and said to him: Thou wast wholly born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
35 וַיִּשְׁמַע יֵשׁוּעַ כִּי הֲדָפֻהוּ הַחוּצָה וַיִּפְגְּשֵׁהוּ וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו הֲתַאֲמִין בְּבֶן־הָאֱלֹהִים	35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out: and when he had found him, he said to him: Dost thou believe in the Son of God?
36 וַיַּעַן וַיֹּאמַר מִי הוּא־זֶה אֲדֹנִי לְמַעַן אַאֲמִין בּוֹ	36 He answered, and said: Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?
37 וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו יֵשׁוּעַ הֵן־רָאִיתָ אֹתוֹ וְהַמְדַבֵּר אֵלֶיךָ הִנֵּה זֶה הוּא	37 And Jesus said to him: Thou hast both seen him; and it is he that talketh with thee.
38 וַיֹּאמֶר אֲנִי מַאֲמִין אֲדֹנִי וַיִּשְׁתַּחוּ לוֹ	38 And he said: I believe, Lord. And falling down, he adored him.
39 וַיֹּאמֶר יֵשׁוּעַ אֲנִי לָדִין בָּאתִי לָעוֹלָם הַזֶּה לְמַעַן יִרְאוּ הַעִוְרִים וְהָרֹאִים יֻכּוּ בְעִוָּרוֹן	39 And Jesus said: For judgment I am come into this world; that they who see not, may see; and they who see, may become blind.
40 וַאֲשֶׁר הָיוּ עִמּוֹ מִן־הַפְּרוּשִׁים שָׁמְעוּ דְבָרָיו וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֵלָיו הֲגַם אֲנַחְנוּ עִוְרִים	40 And some of the Pharisees, who were with him, heard: and they said unto him: Are we also blind?
41 וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵיהֶם יֵשׁוּעַ אִם־עִוְרִים הֱיִיתֶם לֹא־הָיָה בָכֶם חֵטְא וְעַתָּה כִּי אֲמַרְתֶּם פִּקְחִים אֲנַחְנוּ חַטַּאתְכֶם תַּעֲמֹד	41 Jesus said to them: If you were blind, you should not have sin: but now you say: We see. Your sin remaineth.
