The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 50: John: The Challoner Revision
Bible. John
8:47. He that is of God heareth the words of God. Therefore you hear
them not, because you are not of God.
8:48. The Jews therefore answered and said to him: Do not we say well
that thou art a Samaritan and hast a devil?
8:49. Jesus answered: I have not a devil: but I honour my Father. And
you have dishonoured me.
8:50. But I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and
judgeth.
8:51. Amen, amen, I say to you: If any man keep my word, he shall not
see death for ever.
8:52. The Jews therefore said: Now we know that thou hast a devil.
Abraham is dead, and the prophets: and thou sayest: If any man keep my
word, he shall not taste death for ever.
8:53. Art thou greater than our father Abraham who is dead? And the
prophets are dead. Whom dost thou make thyself?
8:54. Jesus answered: If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is
my Father that glorifieth me, of whom you say that he is your God.
8:55. And you have not known him: but I know him. And if I shall say
that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar. But I do know him
and do keep his word.
8:56. Abraham your father rejoiced that he might see my day: he saw it
and was glad.
8:57. The Jews therefore said to him: Thou art not yet fifty years old.
And hast thou seen Abraham?
8:58. Jesus said to them: Amen, amen, I say to you, before Abraham was
made, I AM.
8:59. They took up stones therefore to cast at him. But Jesus hid
himself and went out of the temple.
John Chapter 9
He gives sight to the man born blind.
9:1. And Jesus passing by, saw a man who was blind from his birth.
9:2. And his disciples asked him: Rabbi, who hath sinned, this man or
his parents, that he should be born blind?
9:3. Jesus answered: Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents; but
that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
9:4. I must work the works of him that sent me, whilst it is day: the
night cometh, when no man can work.
9:5. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
9:6. When he had said these things, he spat on the ground and made clay
of the spittle and spread the clay upon his eyes,
9:7. And said to him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloe, which is
interpreted, Sent. He went therefore and washed: and he came seeing.
9:8. The neighbours, therefore, and they who had seen him before that he
was a beggar, said: Is not this he that sat and begged? Some said: This
is he.
9:9. But others said: No, but he is like him. But he said: I am he.
9:10. They said therefore to him: How were thy eyes opened?
9:11. He answered: That man that is called Jesus made clay and anointed
my eyes and said to me: Go to the pool of Siloe and wash. And I went: I
washed: and I see.
9:12. And they said to him: Where is he? He saith: I know not.
9:13. They bring him that had been blind to the Pharisees.
9:14. Now it was the sabbath, when Jesus made the clay and opened his
eyes.
