²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, ^(A)we do not know where he comes from.” ³⁰ The man answered, “Why, this is ^(B)an amazing thing! ^(C)You do not know where he comes from, and yet he opened my eyes. ³¹ We know that ^(D)God does not listen to sinners, but ^(E)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 (F)If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.” ³⁴ They answered him, ^(G)“You were born in utter sin, and would you teach us?” And they ^(H)cast him out.

¹⁸ If possible, so far as it depends on you, ^(A)live peaceably with all. ¹⁹ Beloved, ^(B)never avenge yourselves, but leave it^[a] to the wrath of God, for it is written, ^(C)“Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” ²⁰ To the contrary, ^(D)“if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” ²¹ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
