John 9:20-30

²⁰His parents answered them and said, 'We have known that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

²¹and how he now seeth, we have not known; or who opened his eyes, we have not known; himself is of age, ask him; he himself shall speak concerning himself.'

²²These things said his parents, because they were afraid of the Jews, for already had the Jews agreed together, that if any one may confess him — Christ, he may be put out of the synagogue;

²³because of this his parents said — 'He is of age, ask him.'

²⁴They called, therefore, a second time the man who was blind, and they said to him, 'Give glory to God, we have known that this man is a sinner;'

²⁵he answered, therefore, and said, 'If he be a sinner — I have not known, one thing I have known, that, being blind, now I see.'

²⁶And they said to him again, 'What did he to thee? how did he open thine eyes?'

²⁷He answered them, 'I told you already, and ye did not hear; why again do ye wish to hear? do ye also wish to become his disciples?'

²⁸They reviled him, therefore, and said, 'Thou art his disciple, and we are Moses' disciples;

²⁹we have known that God hath spoken to Moses, but this one — we have not known whence he is.'

³⁰The man answered and said to them, 'Why, in this is a wonderful thing, that ye have not known whence he is, and he opened my eyes!
