⁸ Jehovah is loosing the prisoners, Jehovah is opening (the eyes of) the blind, Jehovah is raising the bowed down, Jehovah is loving the righteous,

³⁰ and their eyes were opened, and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, `See, let no one know;'

¹⁴ Jehovah is supporting all who are falling, And raising up all who are bowed down.

⁷ For righteous `is' Jehovah, Righteousness He hath loved, The upright doth His countenance see!'

⁶ Jehovah is causing the meek to stand, Making low the wicked unto the earth.

⁹ and ye `are' a choice race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people acquired, that the excellences ye may shew forth of Him who out of darkness did call you to His wondrous light;

¹⁸ the eyes of your understanding being enlightened, for your knowing what is the hope of His calling, and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,

⁶ but He who is comforting the cast-down -- God -- He did comfort us in the presence of Titus;

¹⁸ to open their eyes, to turn `them' from darkness to light, and `from' the authority of the Adversary unto God, for their receiving forgiveness of sins, and a lot among those having been sanctified, by faith that `is' toward me.

²⁷ for the Father himself doth love you, because me ye have loved, and ye have believed that I from God came forth;

²¹ he who is having my commands, and is keeping them, that one it is who is loving me, and he who is loving me shall be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.'

²² Judas saith to him, (not the Iscariot), `Sir, what hath come to pass, that to us thou are about to manifest thyself, and not to the world?'

²³ Jesus answered and said to him, `If any one may love me, my word he will keep, and my Father will love him, and unto him we will come, and abode with him we will make;

⁷ `Go away, wash at the pool of Siloam,' which is, interpreted, Sent. He went away, therefore, and did wash, and came seeing;

⁸ the neighbours, therefore, and those seeing him before, that he was blind, said, `Is not this he who is sitting and begging?'

⁹ others said -- `This is he;' and others -- `He is like to him;' he himself said, -- `I am `he'.'

¹⁰ They said, therefore, to him, `How were thine eyes opened?'

¹¹ he answered and said, `A man called Jesus made clay, and rubbed my eyes, and said to me, Go away to the pool of Siloam, and wash; and having gone away and having washed, I received sight;'

¹² they said, therefore, to him, `Where is that one?' he saith, `I have not known.'

¹³ They bring him to the Pharisees who once `was' blind,

¹⁴ and it was a sabbath when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

¹⁵ Again, therefore, the Pharisees also were asking him how he received sight, and he said to them, `Clay he did put upon my eyes, and I did wash -- and I see.'

¹⁶ Of the Pharisees, therefore, certain said, `This man is not from God, because the sabbath he doth not keep;' others said, `How is a man -- a sinful one -- able to do such signs?' and there was a division among them.

¹⁷ They said to the blind man again, `Thou -- what dost thou say of him -- that he opened thine eyes?'

¹⁸ and he said -- `He is a prophet.' The Jews, therefore, did not believe concerning him that he was blind and did receive sight, till that they called the parents of him who received sight,

¹⁹ and they asked them, saying, `Is your son, of whom ye say that he was born blind? how then now doth he see?'

²⁰ His parents answered them and said, `We have known that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

²¹ and how he now seeth, we have not known; or who opened his eyes, we have not known; himself is of age, ask him; he himself shall speak concerning himself.'

²² These things said his parents, because they were afraid of the Jews, for already had the Jews agreed together, that if any one may confess him -- Christ, he may be put out of the synagogue;

²³ because of this his parents said -- `He is of age, ask him.'

²⁴ They called, therefore, a second time the man who was blind, and they said to him, `Give glory to God, we have known that this man is a sinner;'

²⁵ he answered, therefore, and said, `If he be a sinner -- I have not known, one thing I have known, that, being blind, now I see.'

²⁶ And they said to him again, `What did he to thee? how did he open thine eyes?'

²⁷ He answered them, `I told you already, and ye did not hear; why again do ye wish to hear? do ye also wish to become his disciples?'

²⁸ They reviled him, therefore, and said, `Thou art his disciple, and we are Moses' disciples;

²⁹ we have known that God hath spoken to Moses, but this one -- we have not known whence he is.'

³⁰ The man answered and said to them, `Why, in this is a wonderful thing, that ye have not known whence he is, and he opened my eyes!

³¹ and we have known that God doth not hear sinners, but, if any one may be a worshipper of God, and may do His will, him He doth hear;

³² from the age it was not heard, that any one did open eyes of one who hath been born blind;

³³ if this one were not from God, he were not able to do anything.'

⁴¹ saying, `What wilt thou I shall do to thee?' and he said, `Sir, that I may receive sight.'

⁴² And Jesus said to him, `Receive thy sight; thy faith hath saved thee;'

¹¹ and lo, there was a woman having a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bowed together, and not able to bend back at all,

¹² and Jesus having seen her, did call `her' near, and said to her, `Woman, thou hast been loosed from thy infirmity;'

¹³ and he laid on her `his' hands, and presently she was set upright, and was glorifying God.

⁵ blind receive sight, and lame walk, lepers are cleansed, and deaf hear, dead are raised, and poor have good news proclaimed,

¹⁸ Ye deaf, hear; and ye blind, look to see.

¹⁶ And I have caused the blind to go, In a way they have not known, In paths they have not known I cause them to tread, I make a dark place before them become light, And unlevelled places become a plain, These `are' the things I have done to them, And I have not forsaken them.

⁵ Then opened are eyes of the blind, And ears of the deaf are unstopped,

³ Also He `is' loving the peoples; All His holy ones `are' in thy hand, And they -- they sat down at thy foot, `Each' He lifteth up at thy words.
