John 9:18-23

181The JewsG2453 thenG3767 did not believeG4100 it aboutG4012 him, that he had beenG1510 blindG5185 and had receivedG308 sightG308, untilG2193 they calledG5455 the parentsG1118 of the veryG846 oneG846 who had receivedG308 his sightG308, 19and they questionedG2065 them, sayingG3004, “Is thisG3778 your sonG5207, whoG3739 you sayG3004 was bornG1080 blindG5185? ThenG3767 howG4459 does he nowG737 seeG991?” 20His parentsG1118 thenG3767 answeredG611 and saidG3004, “We knowG3609 that thisG3778 is our sonG5207, and that he was bornG1080 blindG5185; 21but howG4459 he nowG3568 seesG991, we do not knowG3609; orG2228 whoG5101 openedG455 his eyesG3788, we do not knowG3609. AskG2065 him; he is of ageG2244, he will speakG2980 for himselfG1438.” 22His parentsG1118 saidG3004 thisG3778 becauseG3754 they 2wereG5399 afraidG5399 of the 3JewsG2453; for the JewsG2453 4had alreadyG2235 reachedG4934 theG4934 decisionG4934 that ifG1437 anyoneG5100 confessedG3670 Him to be 5ChristG5547, 6he was to be excommunicatedG656 fromG656 theG656 synagogueG656. 23It was for thisG3778 reasonG1223 that his parentsG1118 saidG3004, “7He is of ageG2244; askG2065 him.”
