John 9:24-33 ▼

24 A second time therefore they called the man who had been blind, and said, "Give God the praise: we know that that man is a sinner."

25 "Whether he is a sinner or not, I do not know," he replied; "one thing I know--that I was once blind and that now I can see."

26 "What did he do to you?" they asked; "how did he open your eyes?"

27 "I have told you already," he replied, "and you did not listen to me. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also mean to be disciples of his?"

28 Then they railed at him, and said, "You are that man's disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

29 We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this fellow we do not know where he comes from."

30 "Why, this is marvellous!" the man replied; "you do not know where he comes from, and yet he has opened my eyes!

31 We know that God does not listen to bad people, but that if any one is a God-fearing man and obeys Him, to him He listens.

32 From the beginning of the world such a thing was never heard of as that any one should open the eyes of a man blind from his birth.

33 Had that man not come from God, he could have done nothing."
