  • Job 22:5-9 : 5 Is not thy wickedness abundant? And there is no end to thine iniquities. 6 For thou takest a pledge of thy brother for nought, And the garments of the naked Thou dost strip off. 7 Thou causest not the weary to drink water, And from the hungry thou withholdest bread. 8 As to the man of arm -- he hath the earth, And the accepted of face -- he dwelleth in it. 9 Widows thou hast sent away empty, And the arms of the fatherless are bruised. 10 Therefore round about thee `are' snares, And trouble thee doth fear suddenly. 11 Or darkness -- thou dost not see, And abundance of waters doth cover thee. 12 Is not God high `in' heaven?

And the bowed down of eyes he saveth. 30 He delivereth the not innocent, Yea, he hath been delivered By the cleanness of thy hands.

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

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

    11he 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;'

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

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

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

    15Again, 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.'

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

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

    21and 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.'

    22These 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;

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

    24They 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;'

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

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