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?
