John 9:23-29 in English

²³ Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

²⁴ So they called a second time the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give glory to God: we know that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ He therefore answered, Whether he is a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

²⁶ They said therefore unto him, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

²⁷ He answered them, I told you even now, and ye did not hear; wherefore would ye hear it again? would ye also become his disciples?

²⁸ And they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God hath spoken unto Moses: but as for this man, we know not whence he is.

²³ For this reason, his parents said, “Ask him. He is of age.”

²⁴ So they called the man who had been blind a second time, and told him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ He answered, “Whether He is a sinner or not I don’t know. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”

²⁶ Then they asked him again, “What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered, “I told you already, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t want to become His disciples, too, do you?”

²⁸ Then they became abusive towards him and said, “You are that man’s disciple, but we are Moses’ disciples.

²⁹ We know that God spoke to Moses, but as for this man, we don’t know where He is from.”

²³ Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

²⁴ Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

²⁶ Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

²⁷ He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?

²⁸ Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses’ disciples.

²⁹ We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.

²³ Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

²⁴ So they called a second time the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give glory to God: we know that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ He therefore answered, Whether he be a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

²⁶ They said therefore unto him, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

²⁷ He answered them, I told you even now, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? would ye also become his disciples?

²⁸ And they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God hath spoken unto Moses: but as for this man, we know not whence he is.

²³ That is the reason that they said, “He is old enough to answer questions, so ask him!”

²⁴ So they sent someone to bring back to them the man who had been blind. When he got there, the Jewish leaders said to him, “Knowing that God is listening IDM, tell the truth! We know that the man who healed you is a sinner.”

²⁵ He replied, “I do not know if he is a sinner or not. But one thing I do know is that I was blind, but now I can see!”

²⁶ So they said to him, “What did he do to you? How did he enable you to see?”

²⁷ He replied, “I told you that already, but you did not RHQ pay attention! Why do you want to hear me tell you again? ◄Do you also want to become his disciples?/You talk as though IRO you also want to become his disciples RHQ►.”

²⁸ Then they insulted him angrily. They said, “You are that man's disciple, but we are Moses' disciples!

²⁹ We know that God spoke to Moses; but this man, we do not know where he is from or where he gets any authority from!”

²³ Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”

²⁴ So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ He therefore answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”

²⁶ They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered them, “I told you already, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t also want to become his disciples, do you?”

²⁸ They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don’t know where he comes from.”

²³ Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”

²⁴ So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ He therefore answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”

²⁶ They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered them, “I told you already, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t also want to become his disciples, do you?”

²⁸ They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don’t know where he comes from.”

²³ Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”

²⁴ So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ He therefore answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”

²⁶ They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered them, “I told you already, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t also want to become his disciples, do you?”

²⁸ They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don’t know where he comes from.”

²³ That was the reason why they said, He is old enough; put the question to him.

²⁴ So they sent a second time for the man who had been blind and they said to him, Give glory to God: it is clear to us that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ He said in answer, I have no knowledge if he is a sinner or not, but one thing I am certain about; I was blind, and now I see.

²⁶ Then they said to him, What did he do to you? how did he give you the use of your eyes?

²⁷ His answer was: I have said it before, but your ears were shut: why would you have me say it again? is it your desire to become his disciples?

²⁸ And they were angry with him and said, You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We are certain that God gave his word to Moses: but as for this man, we have no knowledge where he comes from.

²³ On this account his parents said, He is of age: ask him.

²⁴ They called therefore a second time the man who had been blind, and said to him, Give glory to God: we know that this man is sinful.

²⁵ He answered therefore, If he is sinful I know not. One thing I know, that, being blind before, now I see.

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

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

²⁸ They railed at him, and said, Thou art his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God spoke to Moses; but as to this man, we know not whence he is.

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.

²³ On account of this his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.”

²⁴ Therefore they called a second time the man who was blind, and said to him, “Give glory to God! We know that this Man is a sinner.”

²⁵ He answered and said, “Whether He is a sinner or not I do not know. One thing I do know: that although I was blind, now I see.”

²⁶ Then they said to him again, “What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered them, “I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you wish to hear it again? Do you also want to become His disciples?”

²⁸ Then they reviled him and said, “You are His disciple, but we are Moses' disciples.

²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses; but as for this Man, we do not know where He is from.”

²³ That is why his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.”

²⁴ So they summoned the man who had been blind a second time and said to him: “Give glory to God! We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ So he answered and said: “That He is a sinner, I do not know. One thing I do know, that having been blind I now see!”

²⁶ So they said to him again: “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered them: “I already told you and you didn't listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don't want to become His disciples too, do you?”

²⁸ They reviled him and said: “You are that fellow's disciple, but we are Moses' disciples.

²⁹ We know that God spoke to Moses; but this fellow—we don't know where he's from.”

²³ That was why his parents said, “Ask him, he's old enough.”

²⁴ Once more they called in the man who had been blind, and told him, “Give God the glory! We know this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ The man replied, “Whether he's a sinner or not, I don't know. All I know is that I was blind and now I can see.”

²⁶ Then they asked him, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷ The man replied, “I already told you. Weren't you listening? Why do you want to hear it again? You don't want to become his disciples too, do you?”

²⁸ They shouted abuse at him, and said, “You're that man's disciple.

²⁹ We're disciples of Moses. We know that God spoke to Moses, but as for this person, we don't even know where he comes from.”

²³ Therefore sayde his parents, Hee is olde ynough: aske him.

²⁴ Then againe called they the man that had bene blinde, and sayd vnto him, Giue glory vnto God: we know that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ Then he answered, and sayd, Whether hee be a sinner or no, I can not tell: one thing I know, that I was blinde, and nowe I see.

²⁶ Then sayd they to him againe, What did he to thee? howe opened he thine eyes?

²⁷ Hee answered them, I haue tolde you already, and yee haue not heard it: wherefore would yee heare it againe? will yee also be his disciples?

²⁸ Then reuiled they him, and sayd, Be thou his disciple: we be Moses disciples.

²⁹ We know that God spake with Moses: but this man we know not from whence he is.

²³ Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

²⁴ Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

²⁶ Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

²⁷ He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would you hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?

²⁸ Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses’ disciples.

²⁹ We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.

²³ Therefore his parents said, He is of age; ask him.

²⁴ They therefore called a second time the man that had been blind, and said to him, Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ He therefore answered, Whether he is a sinner, I know not; one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

²⁶ They said to him, What did he do to thee? How did he open thine eyes?

²⁷ He answered them, I have already told you, and ye did not hear; why would ye hear it again? Are ye also inclined to become his disciples?

²⁸ They reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God hath spoken to Moses; but as for this man, we know not whence he is.

²³ This was why his parents said ‘He is old enough; ask him.’

²⁴ So the authorities again called the man who had been blind, and said to him, “Give God the praise; we know that this is a bad man.”

²⁵ “I know nothing about his being a bad man,” he replied; “one thing I do know, that although I was blind, now I can see.”

²⁶ “What did he do to you?” they asked. “How did he give you your sight?”

²⁷ “I told you just now,” he answered, “and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Surely you also do not want to become his disciples?”

²⁸ “You are his disciple,” they retorted scornfully; “but we are disciples of Moses.

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

²³ This was why his parents said ‘He is old enough; ask him.’

²⁴ So the authorities again called the man who had been blind, and said to him, “Give God the praise; we know that this is a bad man.”

²⁵ “I know nothing about his being a bad man,” he replied; “one thing I do know, that although I was blind, now I can see.”

²⁶ “What did he do to you?” they asked. “How did he give you your sight?”

²⁷ “I told you just now,” he answered, “and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Surely you also do not want to become his disciples?”

²⁸ “You are his disciple,” they retorted scornfully; “but we are disciples of Moses.

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

²³ Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”

²⁴ So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ He therefore answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”

²⁶ They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered them, “I told you already, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t also want to become his disciples, do you?”

²⁸ They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses Drawn out.

²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses Drawn out. But as for this man, we don’t know where he comes from.”

²³ Therfore sayde his father and mother: he is olde ynough axe him.

²⁴ Then agayne called they the man that was blynde and sayd vnto him: Geve God the prayse: we knowe that this man is a synner.

²⁵ He answered and sayde: Whyther he be a synner or noo I cannot tell: One thinge I am sure of that I was blynde and now I se.

²⁶ Then sayde they to him agayne. What dyd he to the? How opened he thyne eyes?

²⁷ He answered them I tolde you yerwhyle and the dyd not heare. Wherfore wolde ye heare it agayne? Will ye also be his disciples?

²⁸ Then rated they him and sayde: Thou arte his disciple. We be Moses disciples.

²⁹ We are sure that God spake with Moses. This felowe we knowe not from whence he is.

²³ Because of this, his parents said, “He is an adult, ask him.”

²⁴ So for a second time they called the man who had been blind and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ Then that man replied, “I do not know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: I was blind, and now I see.”

²⁶ Then they said to him, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered, “I have told you already, and you did not listen! Why do you want to hear it again? You do not want to become his disciples too, do you?

²⁸ They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses, but we do not know where this one is from.”

²³ Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”

²⁴ So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ He therefore answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”

²⁶ They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered them, “I told you already, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t also want to become his disciples, do you?”

²⁸ They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don’t know where he comes from.”

²³ Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”

²⁴ So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ He therefore answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”

²⁶ They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered them, “I told you already, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t also want to become his disciples, do you?”

²⁸ They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don’t know where he comes from.”

²³ Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

²⁴ Then again they called the man that was blind, and said to him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ He answered and said, Whether he is a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see.

²⁶ Then they said to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thy eyes?

²⁷ He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: Why would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?

²⁸ Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are the disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God spoke to Moses: as for this man , we know not whence he is.

²³ Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”

²⁴ So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ He therefore answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”

²⁶ They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered them, “I told you already, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t also want to become his disciples, do you?”

²⁸ They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don’t know where he comes from.”

²³ Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”

²⁴ So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵ He therefore answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”

²⁶ They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷ He answered them, “I told you already, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t also want to become his disciples, do you?”

²⁸ They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don’t know where he comes from.”

²³ Therefore his father and mother said, That he hath age, ask ye him.

²⁴ Therefore again they called the man, that was blind, and said to him, Give thou glory to God; we know, that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ Then he said, If he is a sinner, I know not; one thing I know, that when I was blind, now I see.

²⁶ Therefore they said to him, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

²⁷ He answered to them, I said to you now, and ye heard; what will ye again hear? whether ye will be made his disciples?

²⁸ Therefore they cursed him, and said, Be thou his disciple; we be the disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know, that God spake to Moses; but we know not this, of whence he is.

²³ Therefore his father and mother said, That he hath age, ask ye him. (And so his father and mother said, He is old enough, you ask him.)

²⁴ Therefore again they called the man, that was blind, and said to him, Give thou glory to God; we know, that this man is a sinner.

²⁵ Then he said, If he is a sinner, I know not; one thing I know, that when I was blind, now I see. (Then he said, If he is a sinner, I do not know; but the one thing I do know, is that before I was blind, and now I can see.)

²⁶ Therefore they said to him, What did he (do) to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

²⁷ He answered to them, I said to you now, and ye heard (me); what will ye again hear (it)? whether ye will be made his disciples? (He answered to them, I told you before, and ye heard me; why will ye hear it again? will ye also be made his disciples?)

²⁸ Therefore they cursed him, and said, Be thou (made) his disciple; we be the disciples of Moses.

²⁹ We know, that God spake to Moses; but we know not this (man), of whence he is.

²³ Therfor his fadir and modir seiden, That he hath age, axe ye hym.

²⁴ Therfor eftsoone thei clepiden the man, that was blynd, and seiden to hym, Yyue thou glorie to God; we witen, that this man is a synnere.

²⁵ Thanne he seide, If he is a synnere, Y woot neuer; o thing Y woot, that whanne Y was blynd, now Y se.

²⁶ Therfor thei seiden to hym, What dide he to thee? hou openyde he thin iyen?

²⁷ He answerde to hem, Y seide to you now, and ye herden; what wolen ye eftsoone here? whether ye wolen be maad hise discyplis?

²⁸ Therfor thei cursiden hym, and seiden, Be thou his disciple; we ben disciplis of Moises.

²⁹ We witen, that God spak to Moises; but we knowen not this, of whennus he is.

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

²⁴ They 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;'

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

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

²⁷ He 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?'

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

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