Old/New Testament

²⁴ Then again they called the man who had been blind and said to him, Give God the praise. We know that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ He answered and said, Whether he is a sinner or not, I do not know. One thing I am sure of: I was blind, and now I see.

²⁶ Then they said to him again, What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?

²⁷ He answered them, I told you already, and you did not hear. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to be his disciples?

²⁸ Then they berated him and said, You are his disciple. We are Moses’ disciples. ²⁹ We are sure that God spoke with Moses. This fellow, we do not know where he is from.

³⁰ The man answered and said to them, This is a marvellous thing, that you do not where he is from, seeing he has opened my eyes. ³¹ For we are sure that God does not hear sinners. But if anyone is a worshipper of God and does his will, him he hears. ³² Since the world began it has never been heard that any man opened the eyes of someone that was born blind. ³³ If this man were not of God, he could have done nothing.

³⁴ They answered and said to him, You are altogether born in sin, and do you teach us? And they cast him out.

³⁵ Jesus heard that they had excommunicated the man, and as soon as he found him, he said to him, Do you believe on the Son of God? ³⁶ He answered and said, Who is it, Lord, so that I can believe on him? ³⁷ And Jesus said to him, You have seen him, and he it is who talks with you.

³⁸ And he said, Lord, I believe! and worshipped him.

³⁹ Jesus said, I have come for judgment into this world, so that those who do not see may see, and those who see, may be made blind.

⁴⁰ And some of the Pharisees who were with him heard these words and said to him, Are we then blind? ⁴¹ Jesus said to them, If you were blind, you would have no sin. But now you say, We see. Therefore your sin remains.
