When He had said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.

"Since the world began it has been unheard of that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.

So the LORD said to him, "Who has made man's mouth? Or who makes the mute, the deaf, the seeing, or the blind? [Have] not I, the LORD?

Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, "This [is] the finger of God." But Pharaoh's heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, just as the LORD had said.

He who planted the ear, shall He not hear? He who formed the eye, shall He not see?

The LORD opens [the eyes of] the blind; The LORD raises those who are bowed down; The LORD loves the righteous.

The hearing ear and the seeing eye, The LORD has made them both.

Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, And the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped.

Then the lame shall leap like a deer, And the tongue of the dumb sing. For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness, And streams in the desert.

"[The] blind see and [the] lame walk; [the] lepers are cleansed and [the] deaf hear; [the] dead are raised up and [the] poor have the gospel preached to them.
