These things his parents said, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had already agreed among themselves that if any man should confess him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
23
Therefore did his parents say: He is of age. Ask himself.
24
They therefore called the man again that had been blind and said to him: Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.
25
He said therefore to them: If he be a sinner, I know not. One thing I know, that whereas I was blind. now I see.
26
They said then to him: What did he to thee? How did he open thy eyes?
27
He answered them: I have told you already, and you have heard. Why would you hear it again? Will you also become his disciples?
28
They reviled him therefore and said: Be thou his disciple; but we are the disciples of Moses.
29
We know that God spoke to Moses: but as to this man, we know not from whence he is.
30
The man answered and said to them: why, herein is a wonderful thing, that you know not from whence he is, and he hath opened my eyes.
31
Now we know that God doth not hear sinners: but if a man be a server of God and doth his, will, him he heareth.
32
From the beginning of the world it hath not been heard, that any man hath opened the eyes of one born blind.
