Slijepac od rođenja
9 Šećući uokolo, Isus je primijetio nekog slijepca. Čovjek je bio slijep od rođenja. 2 »Učitelju«, upitali su ga njegovi učenici, »tko je sagriješio da se rodio slijep? On ili njegovi roditelji?«
3 »Ni on ni njegovi roditelji«, odgovorio im je Isus. »Rodio se slijep da bi se na njemu pokazala Božja moćna djela. 4 Dok je dan, moram činiti djela onoga koji me poslao. Kada padne noć, nitko ne može raditi. 5 Dokle god sam na svijetu, njegovo sam svjetlo.«
6 Kad je to izgovorio, pljunuo je na zemlju, napravio od sline blato i njime premazao čovjeku oči. 7 Potom mu je rekao: »Idi do bazena Siloama i umij se!«—Siloam znači »Poslan«. Čovjek je otišao, umio se i vratio gledajući.
8 Njegovi susjedi i oni koji su ga prije često viđali kako prosi pitali su se: »Zar nije ono čovjek koji je stalno sjedio uz cestu i prosio?«
9 Neki su rekli: »Da, to je on!« Drugi pak: »Nije, samo mu je sličan.«
A on sâm je rekao: »Da, ja sam taj!«
10 »Kako se to dogodilo? Kako su ti se otvorile oči?« pitali su ga.
11 Odgovorio je: »Čovjek kojeg zovu Isus napravio je blato, premazao mi njime oči i rekao: ‘Idi do Siloama i umij se!’ Otišao sam, pa kad sam se umio, progledao sam.«
12 Upitali su ga: »Gdje je on?«
13 Ljudi su tada farizejima doveli čovjeka koji je ranije bio slijep. 14 A bio je šabat, dan odmora, kad je Isus načinio blato i otvorio čovjeku oči. 15 Farizeji su ga još jednom počeli ispitivati kako je progledao.
16 Neki od farizeja počeli su govoriti: »Ovaj čovjek nije došao od Boga jer ne poštuje zakon o šabatu.«
»Kako jedan grešnik«, govorili su pak drugi, »može činiti ovakve čudesne znakove?« Tako je među njima došlo do razdora.
17 Ponovo su upitali slijepca: »Što ti misliš o Isusu, sada kada ti je otvorio oči?«
»On je prorok!« odgovorio im je.
18 Židovi mu nisu vjerovali da je bio slijep i da je progledao pa su pozvali njegove roditelje 19 i ispitivali ih: »Je li ovo vaš sin, za kojega kažete da je bio slijep od rođenja? Pa kako onda sada vidi?«
20 Njegovi su roditelji odgovorili: »Znamo da je on naš sin i da se rodio slijep, 21 ali ne znamo kako je progledao niti tko mu je otvorio oči. Pitajte njega! Dovoljno je odrastao da govori sâm za sebe.« 22 Tako su govorili jer su se bojali Židova. Židovi su bili odlučili da svakoga tko prizna da je Isus Mesija izopće iz sinagoge. 23 Zato su njegovi roditelji rekli: »Pitajte njega! Dovoljno je odrastao.«
24 Tada su drugi put pozvali čovjeka, koji je bio slijep, i naredili mu: »Iskaži Bogu čast! Priznaj istinu! Znamo da je čovjek, koji ti je otvorio oči, grešnik.«
25 »Je li grešnik ili nije, ne znam«, odvratio im je. »Znam samo jedno: bio sam slijep, a sada vidim!«
26 »Što ti je učinio?« pitali su ga. »Kako ti je otvorio oči?«
27 Odgovorio im je: »Već sam vam ispričao, ali niste htjeli slušati. Zašto to želite ponovo čuti? Zar i vi želite postati njegovi učenici?«
28 Tada su ga počeli ismijavati i govoriti mu: »Ti si njegov učenik, a mi smo Mojsijevi učenici. 29 Znamo da se Bog obratio Mojsiju, ali ne znamo odakle dolazi ovaj čovjek.«
30 »Zaista je čudno«, odvratio im je, »da vi ne znate odakle on dolazi, a meni je otvorio oči! 31 Poznato je da Bog ne uslišava grešnike, nego onoga tko mu je odan i tko mu se pokorava. 32 Otkad je svijeta, još se nije čulo da je netko otvorio oči slijepcu od rođenja. 33 Da ovaj čovjek nije od Boga, ništa ne bi mogao učiniti.«
34 Odvratili su mu: »Pun si grijeha od rođenja i ti bi nas nečemu učio!« I izbacili su ga iz sinagoge.
Duhovna sljepoća
35 Isus je čuo da su čovjeka izbacili iz sinagoge. Našao ga je i upitao: »Vjeruješ li u Sina Čovječjeg?«
36 »A tko je taj, gospodine?« odvratio je čovjek. »Kaži mi, pa ću povjerovati u njega.«
37 »Gledaš u njega«, rekao mu je Isus. »To je onaj koji sada razgovara s tobom.«
38 »Vjerujem, Gospodine!« rekao je i poklonio se pred Isusom.
39 A Isus je rekao: »Ja sam došao na ovaj svijet da bi se svijetu moglo suditi. Došao sam da progledaju oni koji ne vide, a oslijepe oni koji vide.«
40 Neki farizeji, koji su bili s Isusom, čuli su to i rekli mu: »Zar smo i mi slijepi?«
41 »Kad biste bili slijepi«, odvratio im je Isus, »ne biste imali grijeha, ali sada kažete: ‘Vidimo’. Time vaš grijeh ostaje.«

John 9
New International Version
Jesus Heals a Man Born Blind
9 As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. 2 His disciples asked him, “Rabbi,(A) who sinned,(B) this man(C) or his parents,(D) 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.(E) 4 As long as it is day,(F) 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.”(G)
6 After saying this, he spit(H) 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”(I) (this word means “Sent”). So the man went and washed, and came home seeing.(J)
8 His neighbors and those who had formerly seen him begging asked, “Isn’t this the same man who used to sit and beg?”(K) 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.”(L)
12 “Where is this man?” they asked him.
“I don’t know,” he said.
The Pharisees Investigate the Healing
13 They brought to the Pharisees the man who had been blind. 14 Now the day on which Jesus had made the mud and opened the man’s eyes was a Sabbath.(M) 15 Therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight.(N) “He put mud on my eyes,” the man replied, “and I washed, and now I see.”
16 Some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath.”(O)
But others asked, “How can a sinner perform such signs?”(P) So they were divided.(Q)
17 Then they turned again to the blind man, “What have you to say about him? It was your eyes he opened.”
The man replied, “He is a prophet.”(R)
18 They(S) still did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight until they sent for the man’s 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. 21 But how he can see now, or who opened his eyes, we don’t know. Ask him. He is of age; he will speak for himself.” 22 His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders,(T) who already had decided that anyone who acknowledged that Jesus was the Messiah would be put out(U) of the synagogue.(V) 23 That was why his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.”(W)
24 A second time they summoned the man who had been blind. “Give glory to God by telling the truth,”(X) they said. “We know this man is a sinner.”(Y)
25 He replied, “Whether he is a sinner or not, I don’t know. One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see!”
26 Then they asked him, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”
27 He answered, “I have told you already(Z) and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you want to become his disciples too?”
28 Then they hurled insults at him and said, “You are this fellow’s disciple! We are disciples of Moses!(AA) 29 We know that God spoke to Moses, but as for this fellow, we don’t even know where he comes from.”(AB)
30 The man answered, “Now that is remarkable! You don’t know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes. 31 We know that God does not listen to sinners. He listens to the godly person who does his will.(AC) 32 Nobody has ever heard of opening the eyes of a man born blind. 33 If this man were not from God,(AD) he could do nothing.”
34 To this they replied, “You were steeped in sin at birth;(AE) how dare you lecture us!” And they threw him out.(AF)
Spiritual Blindness
35 Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and when he found him, he said, “Do you believe(AG) in the Son of Man?”(AH)
36 “Who is he, sir?” the man asked. “Tell me so that I may believe in him.”(AI)
37 Jesus said, “You have now seen him; in fact, he is the one speaking with you.”(AJ)
38 Then the man said, “Lord, I believe,” and he worshiped him.(AK)
39 Jesus said,[a] “For judgment(AL) I have come into this world,(AM) so that the blind will see(AN) and those who see will become blind.”(AO)
40 Some Pharisees who were with him heard him say this and asked, “What? Are we blind too?”(AP)
41 Jesus said, “If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin; but now that you claim you can see, your guilt remains.(AQ)
