Jesus Affirms His Deity
35 Jesus heard that they had (A)put him out, and after finding him, He said, “Do you believe in the (B)Son of Man?” 36 He answered and said, “(C)Who is He, [a]Lord, that I may believe in Him?” 37 Jesus said to him, “You have both seen Him, and (D)He is the one who is talking with you.” 38 And he said, “Lord, I believe.” And he (E)worshiped Him. 39 And Jesus said, “(F)For judgment I came into this world, so that (G)those who do not see may see, and that (H)those who see may become blind.” 40 Some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these things and said to Him, “(I)Are we blind too?” 41 Jesus said to them, “(J)If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now that you say, ‘(K)We see,’ your sin remains.
