These words spake Jeshu in the house of treasure, as he taught in the temple: and no man apprehended him; for not yet had come his hour.

You are from your father the accuser, and the desires of your father you are willing to do. He from the beginning was the killer of men, and in the truth he stood not; therefore the truth is not in him. And when he speaketh a lie, of his own he speaketh, because of falsity he is also the father.

But you know him not; but I know him: and should I say that I know him not, I should be a liar like you. But I know him, and keep his words.

AND as he was passing, he saw a man blind from the womb of his mother.

And his disciples asked him, saying, Raban, who sinned, this or his parents, that blind he should have been born ?

Jeshu saith to them, Neither he sinned, nor his parents; but that there might be seen in him the works of Aloha.

And when he had said these things, he spat upon the ground, and formed clay from his spittle, and rubbed upon the eyes of the blind,

But his neighbours, and they who had seen (him) aforetime as he begged, said, Is not this he who sat and begged ?

Now it was shabath when Jeshu made the clay and opened his eyes:

His parents answered and said, We know that this (is) our son, and that blind he was born.

But how he now seeth, or who hath opened his eyes, we know not. He also hath entered on his years, ask him: he for himself shall speak.

These words said his parents, because they feared the Jihudoyee; for the Jihudoyee had determined that if any man should confess him that he was the Meshicha, they would cast him out of the synagogue:

on this account said his parents, He hath entered on his years, ask him.

But we know that Aloha the voice of sinners heareth not; but if any man fear him and do his will, him he heareth.

And to him the keeper of the gate openeth the gate, and the flock heareth his voice, and his sheep he calleth by their names, and he leadeth them forth;

and when his flock hath gone forth, he goeth before it, and his sheep follow him, because they know his voice.

I am the good shepherd, and the good shepherd his life layeth down for his flock.

And there was again a division among the Jihudoyee because of his words:

And his two sisters sent unto Jeshu, saying, Our Lord, he whom thou lovest is sick.

And afterwards he saith to his disciples, Come, we will go again into Jihud.
