Jn 9:2………………………………… AND HIS DISCIPLES ASKED HIM, SAYING, MASTER (or Rabbi), WHO DID SIN, THIS MAN, OR HIS PARENTS, THAT HE WAS BORN BLIND?
Jn 9:3………………………………… JESUS ANSWERED, (it was) NEITHER (THAT) THIS MAN SINNED, NOR HIS PARENTS: BUT (this happened so) THAT THE WORKS OF GOD (or
God’s power) SHOULD BE (DISPLAYED) IN HIM.
Jn 9:4………………………………… I MUST WORK THE WORKS OF HIM THAT SENT ME, WHILE IT IS DAY: THE NIGHT (IS COMING), WHEN NO MAN CAN WORK.
Jn 9:5………………………………… AS LONG AS I AM IN THE WORLD, I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD.
Jn 9:6………………………………… WHEN HE HAD (SAID THESE THINGS), HE (SPIT) ON THE GROUND, AND MADE CLAY (or mud) OF THE SPITTLE (or saliva), AND HE
ANOINTED THE EYES OF THE BLIND MAN WITH THE CLAY,
Jn 9:7………………………………… AND SAID (TO) HIM, GO, WASH IN THE POOL OF SILOAM, (WHICH IS BY INTERPRETATION, SENT). HE WENT (AWAY) THEREFORE,
AND WASHED, AND CAME (home) SEEING.
Jn 9:8………………………………… THE (NEIGHBORS) THEREFORE, AND THEY WHICH BEFORE HAD SEEN HIM THAT HE WAS BLIND (begging), SAID, IS NOT THIS HE THAT
SAT AND BEGGED?
Jn 9:9………………………………… SOME SAID, THIS IS HE: OTHERS SAID, HE (ONLY) (looks) LIKE HIM: BUT HE SAID, I AM (THE ONE).
Jn 9:10…………………………………THEREFORE SAID THEY (TO) HIM, HOW WERE (YOUR) EYES OPENED?
Jn 9:11…………………………………HE ANSWERED AND SAID, A MAN THAT IS CALLED JESUS MADE (some) CLAY (or mud), AND (PUT IT ON) (MY) EYES, AND SAID (TO) ME,

Jn 9:13…………………………………THEY BROUGHT TO THE PHARISEES HIM THAT (FORMERLY) WAS BLIND.
Jn 9:14…………………………………AND IT WAS THE SABBATH DAY WHEN JESUS MADE THE CLAY (or mud), AND OPENED HIS EYES.
Jn 9:15…………………………………THEN AGAIN THE PHARISEES ALSO ASKED HIM HOW HE HAD RECEIVED HIS SIGHT. HE SAID (TO) THEM, HE PUT CLAY (or mud) (ON)
(MY) EYES, AND I WASHED, AND (now I) (CAN) SEE.
Jn 9:16…………………………………THEREFORE SAID SOME OF THE PHARISEES, THIS MAN IS NOT OF GOD, BECAUSE HE (DOES NOT KEEP) THE SABBATH DAY. (But)
OTHERS SAID, HOW CAN A MAN THAT IS A SINNER DO SUCH MIRACLES (or miraculous signs)? AND THERE WAS A DIVISION AMONG THEM.
Jn 9:17…………………………………THEY SAY (TO) THE BLIND MAN AGAIN, WHAT (DO YOU SAY) (ABOUT) HIM, (SINCE) HE HATH OPENED (YOUR) EYES? HE SAID, HE IS
A PROPHET.
Jn 9:18…………………………………BUT THE JEWS DID NOT BELIEVE (it) CONCERNING HIM, THAT HE HAD BEEN BLIND, AND RECEIVED HIS SIGHT, UNTIL THEY CALLED
THE PARENTS OF HIM THAT HAD RECEIVED HIS SIGHT.
Jn 9:19…………………………………AND THEY ASKED THEM, SAYING, IS THIS YOUR SON, WHO (YOU) SAY WAS BORN BLIND? HOW THEN (DOES) HE NOW SEE?
Jn 9:20…………………………………HIS PARENTS ANSWERED THEM AND SAID, WE KNOW THAT THIS IS OUR SON, AND THAT HE WAS BORN BLIND:
Jn 9:21…………………………………BUT BY WHAT MEANS HE NOW (SEES), WE (DO NOT KNOW); OR WHO HATH OPENED HIS EYES, WE (DO NOT KNOW): HE IS OF AGE;
ASK HIM: HE SHALL SPEAK FOR HIMSELF.
Jn 9:22…………………………………THESE WORDS (SAID) HIS PARENTS, BECAUSE THEY FEARED THE JEWS: FOR THE JEWS HAD AGREED ALREADY, THAT IF ANY MAN
DID CONFESS THAT HE WAS CHRIST (or Messiah), HE SHOULD BE PUT OUT OF (or banned from) THE SYNAGOGUE.
Jn 9:23…………………………………THEREFORE SAID HIS PARENTS, HE IS OF AGE; ASK HIM.
Jn 9:24…………………………………THEN AGAIN (a second time) CALLED THEY THE MAN THAT (HAD BEEN) BLIND, AND (they) SAID (TO) HIM, GIVE GOD THE PRAISE (or
glory) (or swear to God that you will tell the truth-JNT): WE KNOW THAT THIS MAN IS A SINNER.
Jn 9:25…………………………………HE ANSWERED AND SAID, WHETHER HE (IS) A SINNER OR (NOT), I KNOW NOT: ONE THING I KNOW, THAT, WHEREAS I WAS BLIND,
NOW I SEE.
Jn 9:26…………………………………THEN SAID THEY TO HIM AGAIN, WHAT DID HE (do) TO (YOU)? HOW (DID HE OPEN) (YOUR) EYES?
Jn 9:27…………………………………HE ANSWERED THEM, I HAVE TOLD YOU ALREADY, AND (YOU) DID NOT (LISTEN): (WHY) (DO) (YOU) (want to) HEAR IT AGAIN? (DO)
(YOU) ALSO (want to) BE HIS DISCIPLES?
Jn 9:28…………………………………THEN THEY REVILED (or hurled insults at) HIM, AND SAID, (YOU) (ARE) HIS DISCIPLE; BUT WE ARE MOSES' DISCIPLES.
Jn 9:29…………………………………WE KNOW THAT GOD (SPOKE) (TO) MOSES: AS FOR THIS FELLOW, WE (DO NOT KNOW) FROM (WHERE) HE IS (from).
Jn 9:30…………………………………THE MAN ANSWERED AND SAID (TO) THEM, (WELL) (HERE) IS (AN) (AMAZING) (or remarkable) THING, THAT (YOU) (DO NOT KNOW)
FROM (WHERE) HE IS (from), AND YET HE (HAS) OPENED (MY) EYES.

HIM (GOD) (HEARS).
Jn 9:32…………………………………SINCE THE WORLD BEGAN (IT HAS NEVER BEEN HEARD-NASB) THAT ANY MAN OPENED THE EYES OF ONE THAT WAS BORN BLIND.
Jn 9:33…………………………………IF THIS MAN WERE NOT OF GOD, HE COULD DO NOTHING.
Jn 9:34…………………………………THEY ANSWERED AND SAID (TO) HIM, (YOU) (WERE) (ENTIRELY) BORN IN SINS, AND (HOW DARE) (YOU) (LECTURE) US? AND THEY
(THREW) HIM OUT.

Jn 10:8…………………………………ALL (those) THAT EVER CAME BEFORE ME (WERE) THIEVES AND ROBBERS: BUT THE SHEEP DID NOT (LISTEN TO) THEM.
Jn 10:9…………………………………I AM THE (GATE): BY ME IF ANY MAN ENTER IN, HE SHALL BE SAVED, AND SHALL GO IN AND OUT, AND FIND PASTURE.
Jn 10:10……………………………… THE THIEF (COMES) (ONLY) TO STEAL, AND TO KILL, AND TO DESTROY: I AM COME THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE LIFE, AND THAT THEY
MIGHT HAVE IT MORE ABUNDANTLY (or to) (its fullest measure).
Jn 10:11……………………………… I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD: THE GOOD SHEPHERD (GIVES) HIS LIFE FOR THE SHEEP.
Jn 10:12……………………………… BUT HE THAT IS AN (HIRED HAND), AND NOT THE SHEPHERD, WHOSE OWN THE SHEEP ARE NOT, (SEES) THE WOLF COMING, AND

Jn 10:14……………………………… I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD, AND KNOW MY (own) SHEEP, AND AM KNOWN OF (MY) (own) (sheep).
Jn 10:15……………………………… (Even) AS THE FATHER (KNOWS) ME, EVEN SO KNOW I THE FATHER: AND I LAY DOWN MY LIFE FOR THE SHEEP.
Jn 10:16……………………………… AND OTHER SHEEP I HAVE, WHICH ARE NOT OF THIS (SHEEP PEN): THEM ALSO I MUST BRING, AND THEY SHALL (LISTEN TO) MY
VOICE; AND THERE SHALL BE ONE (FLOCK), AND ONE SHEPHERD.
Jn 10:17……………………………… (FOR THIS REASON) MY FATHER (LOVES) ME, BECAUSE I LAY DOWN MY LIFE, THAT I MIGHT TAKE IT (up) AGAIN.
Jn 10:18……………………………… NO MAN (TAKES) IT FROM ME, BUT I LAY IT DOWN OF MYSELF (or My own accord, or own free will). I HAVE (AUTHORITY) TO LAY IT
DOWN, AND I HAVE (AUTHORITY) TO TAKE IT (up) AGAIN. THIS COMMANDMENT HAVE I RECEIVED OF MY FATHER.
Jn 10:19……………………………… THERE WAS A DIVISION THEREFORE AGAIN AMONG THE JEWS FOR THESE (WORDS).
Jn 10:20……………………………… AND MANY OF THEM SAID, HE (HAS) A (DEMON), AND IS (raving) MAD (or insane); WHY (DO YOU LISTEN TO-NASB) HIM?
Jn 10:21……………………………… OTHERS SAID, THESE ARE NOT THE WORDS OF HIM THAT (HAS) A DEVIL. CAN A (DEMON) OPEN THE EYES OF THE BLIND?

THEY BEAR WITNESS OF ME.
Jn 10:26……………………………… BUT (YOU) BELIEVE (or trust) NOT, BECAUSE (YOU) ARE NOT OF (or included among) MY SHEEP, AS I SAID (TO) YOU.

Jn 10:28……………………………… AND I GIVE (TO) THEM ETERNAL LIFE; AND THEY SHALL NEVER PERISH (or be destroyed), NEITHER SHALL ANY MAN (SNATCH) THEM
OUT OF MY HAND.
Jn 10:29……………………………… MY FATHER, WHICH GAVE THEM (to) ME, IS GREATER THAN ALL; AND NO MAN IS ABLE TO (SNATCH) THEM OUT OF MY FATHER'S
HAND.
Jn 10:30……………………………… I AND MY FATHER ARE ONE.

Jn 10:32……………………………… JESUS ANSWERED THEM, MANY GOOD (MIRACLES) HAVE I (SHOWED) YOU FROM MY FATHER (or which reflect the Father’s power-JNT);
FOR WHICH OF THOSE WORKS DO (YOU) STONE ME?
Jn 10:33……………………………… THE JEWS ANSWERED HIM, SAYING, FOR A GOOD WORK WE STONE (YOU) NOT; BUT FOR BLASPHEMY; AND BECAUSE THAT (YOU),
BEING (only) A MAN, (MAKE) (YOURSELF) (out to be) GOD (or Elohim).
Jn 10:34……………………………… JESUS ANSWERED THEM, IS IT NOT WRITTEN IN YOUR LAW, I SAID, (YOU) ARE GODS (or Elohim?
Jn 10:35……………………………… IF HE CALLED THEM GODS (or Elohim), (TO) WHOM THE WORD OF GOD (or Elohim) CAME, AND THE SCRIPTURE CANNOT BE BROKEN;
Jn 10:36……………………………… SAY (YOU) OF HIM (the One), WHOM THE FATHER HATH SANCTIFIED (or set apart as holy-JNT), AND SENT INTO THE WORLD, (YOU) (ARE
BLASPHEMING); (just) BECAUSE I SAID, I AM THE SON OF GOD (or Elohim)?
Jn 10:37……………………………… IF I DO NOT THE WORKS OF MY FATHER (or that reflect My Father’s power-JNT), BELIEVE ME NOT (or don’t trust Me).
Jn 10:38……………………………… BUT IF I DO (them), THOUGH (YOU) (DO NOT BELIEVE) (or trust) ME, BELIEVE (or trust) THE (MIRACLES): THAT (YOU) MAY KNOW, AND
BELIEVE (or understand), THAT THE FATHER IS IN (or united with) ME, AND I IN (or united with) HIM.

Jn 11:8………………………………… HIS DISCIPLES SAY (TO) HIM, MASTER (or Rabbi), THE JEWS (LATELY) (TRIED) TO STONE (YOU); AND (ARE YOU GOING THERE-NASB)
AGAIN?
Jn 11:9…………………………………JESUS ANSWERED, ARE THERE NOT TWELVE HOURS IN THE DAY? IF ANY MAN WALK IN THE DAY (light), HE (DOES NOT STUMBLE),
BECAUSE HE (SEES) THE LIGHT OF THIS WORLD.
Jn 11:10……………………………… BUT IF A MAN WALK IN THE NIGHT, HE (STUMBLES), BECAUSE THERE IS NO LIGHT (WITH) HIM.
Jn 11:11……………………………… THESE THINGS SAID HE: AND AFTER THAT HE (SAID) (TO) THEM, OUR FRIEND LAZARUS (HAS FALLEN ASLEEP); BUT I GO, THAT I
MAY AWAKE HIM OUT OF SLEEP.
Jn 11:12……………………………… THEN SAID HIS DISCIPLES, LORD, IF HE SLEEP, HE SHALL DO WELL (or get better).
Jn 11:13……………………………… (HOWEVER) JESUS (SPOKE) OF HIS DEATH: BUT THEY (His disciples) THOUGHT THAT HE HAD SPOKEN (literally) OF TAKING OF REST IN
(natural) SLEEP.
Jn 11:14……………………………… THEN SAID JESUS (TO) THEM PLAINLY, LAZARUS IS DEAD.
Jn 11:15……………………………… AND I AM GLAD FOR YOUR SAKES THAT I WAS NOT THERE, TO THE INTENT (YOU) MAY BELIEVE (or trust); NEVERTHELESS LET US GO
