John 9:34-41

34 They answered him, "You were born entirely in sins, and are you trying to teach us?" And they drove him out.
35 Jesus heard that they had driven him out, and when he found him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?"
36 He answered, "And who is he, sir? Tell me, so that I may believe in him."
37 Jesus said to him, "You have seen him, and the one speaking with you is he."
38 He said, "Lord, I believe." And he worshiped him.
39 Jesus said, "I came into this world for judgment so that those who do not see may see, and those who do see may become blind."
40 Some of the Pharisees near him heard this and said to him, "Surely we are not blind, are we?"
41 Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would not have sin. But now that you say, "We see,' your sin remains.
