John 9:22-38

22HisG846 parentsG1118 saidG2036 thisG3778 becauseG3754 they were afraidG5399 of theG3588 JewsG2453. ForG1063 theG3588 JewsG2453 had already determinedG2235G4934 thatG2443 anyone whoG5100 confessedG3670 Jesus as the ChristG5547 would beG1096 put out of the synagogueG656. 23That was whyG1223G3778 hisG846 parentsG1118 saidG2036, “He isG2192 old enoughG2244. AskG1905 himG846.”

24SoG3767 a second timeG1208 they calledG5455 forG1537 theG3588 manG444 whoG3739 had beenG1510 blindG5185 andG2532 saidG2036G846, “GiveG1325 gloryG1391 to GodG2316! WeG1473 knowG1492 thatG3754 thisG3778 manG444 isG1510 a sinnerG268.”

25

HeG1565 answeredG611, “WhetherG1487 He isG1510 a sinnerG268 I do not knowG3756G1492. There is oneG1520 thing I do knowG1492: I wasG1510 blindG5185, but nowG737 I seeG991!”

26“WhatG5101 did He doG4160 to youG4771?” they askedG2036. “HowG4459 did He openG455 yourG4771 eyesG3788?”

27He repliedG611, “I already toldG2036G2235 youG4771, andG2532 you did not listenG3756G191. WhyG5101 do you wantG2309 to hearG191 it againG3825? Do youG4771 alsoG2532 wantG3361G2309 to becomeG1096 HisG846 disciplesG3101?”

28ThenG2532 they heaped insults onG3058 himG846 andG2532 saidG2036, “YouG4771 areG1510 HisG1565 discipleG3101; weG1473 areG1510 disciplesG3101 of MosesG3475. 29WeG1473 knowG1492 thatG3754 GodG2316 spokeG2980 to MosesG3475, butG1161 we do not knowG3756G1492 whereG4159 thisG3778 man is fromG1510.”

30“ThatG3778 isG1510 remarkableG2298 indeedG1063!” theG3588 manG444 saidG611G2532G2036G846. “YouG4771 do notG3756 knowG1492 whereG4159 He is fromG1510, and yetG2532 He openedG455 myG1473 eyesG3788. 31We knowG1492 thatG3754 GodG2316 does not listen toG3756G191 sinnersG268, butG235 He does listen toG191 theG3778 one whoG5100 worshipsG1510G2318 Him andG2532 doesG4160 HisG846 willG2307. 32NeverG3756 beforeG1537G3588G165 has anyoneG5100 heard ofG191 openingG455 the eyesG3788 of a man bornG1080 blindG5185. 33IfG1487 thisG3778 man wereG1510 notG3361 fromG3844 GodG2316, He couldG1410 doG4160 no such thingG3762.”

34They repliedG611G2532G2036G846, “YouG4771 were bornG1080 inG1722 utterG3650 sinG266, andG2532 youG4771 are instructingG1321 usG1473?” AndG2532 they threwG1544 himG846 outG1854.

35When JesusG2424 heardG191 thatG3754 they had thrownG1544 himG846 outG1854, He foundG2147 the man and saidG2036, “Do youG4771 believeG4100 inG1519 theG3588 SonG5207 ofG3588 ManG4441?”

36

“WhoG5101 is HeG1510, SirG2962?” heG1565 repliedG611G2532G2036. “Tell me so thatG2443 I may believeG4100 inG1519 HimG846.”

37“You have already seenG2532G3708 HimG846,” JesusG2424 answeredG2036. “HeG1565 isG1510 theG3588 One speakingG2980 withG3326 youG4771.”

38“LordG2962, I believeG4100,” he saidG5346. AndG2532 he worshipedG4352 Jesus.
