John 9:24-41

English Standard Version

²⁴ So for the second time they called the man who had been blind and said to him, ^(A)“Give glory to God. We know that ^(B)this man is a sinner.” ²⁵ He answered, “Whether he is a sinner I do not know. One thing I do know, that though I ^(C)was blind, now I see.” ²⁶ They said to him, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?” ²⁷ He answered them, ^(D)“I have told you already, and you would not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become his disciples?” ²⁸ And they reviled him, saying, “You are his disciple, but ^(E)we are disciples of Moses. ²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, ^(F)we do not know where he comes from.” ³⁰ The man answered, “Why, this is ^(G)an amazing thing! ^(H)You do not know where he comes from, and yet he opened my eyes. ³¹ We know that ^(I)God does not listen to sinners, but ^(J)if anyone is a worshiper of God and does his will, God listens to him. ³² Never since the world began has it been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a man born blind. ^33 (K)If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.” ³⁴ They answered him, ^(L)“You were born in utter sin, and would you teach us?” And they ^(M)cast him out.

³⁵ Jesus heard that they had cast him out, and having found him he said, “Do you believe in ^(N)the Son of Man?”^{[a] 36} He answered, ^(O)“And who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?” ³⁷ Jesus said to him, “You have seen him, and ^(P)it is he who is speaking to you.” ³⁸ He said, “Lord, I believe,” and he worshiped him. ³⁹ Jesus said, ^(Q)“For judgment I came into this world, ^(R)that those who do not see may see, and ^(S)those who see may become blind.” ⁴⁰ Some of the Pharisees near him heard these things, and said to him, ^(T)“Are we also blind?” ⁴¹ Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, ^(U)you would have no guilt;^[b] but now that you say, ‘We see,’ your guilt remains.
