The Jews yelled at him, "You're his disciple, but we're Moses' disciples.
29
We know that God spoke to Moses, but we don't know where this man came from."
30
The man replied to them, "That's amazing! You don't know where he's from. Yet, he gave me sight.
31
We know that God doesn't listen to sinners. Instead, he listens to people who are devout and who do what he wants.
32
Since the beginning of time, no one has ever heard of anyone giving sight to a person born blind.
33
If this man were not from God, he couldn't do anything like that."
34
The Jews answered him, "You were born full of sin. Do you think you can teach us?" Then they threw him out [of the synagogue].
35
Jesus heard that the Jews had thrown the man out [of the synagogue]. So when Jesus found the man, he asked him, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?"
36
The man replied, "Sir, tell me who he is so that I can believe in him."
37
Jesus told him, "You've seen him. He is the person who is now talking with you."
38
The man bowed in front of Jesus and said, "I believe, Lord."
