John 9:22-38

22TheseG3778 words spakeG3004 hisG846 parentsG3588G1118, becauseG3754 they fearedG5399 the JewsG2453: forG1063 the JewsG2453 had agreedG4934 alreadyG2235, thatG2443 ifG1437 any manG5100 did confessG3670 that he wasG846 ChristG5547, he should be putG1096 out of the synagogueG656.

23ThereforeG1223 saidG3004 hisG846 parentsG3588G1118, He isG2192 of ageG2244; askG2065 himG846.

24ThenG3767 againG1537 called theyG5455 the manG3588G444 thatG3739 wasG1510 blindG5185, andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, GiveG1325 GodG3588G2316 the praiseG1391: weG1473 knowG1492 thatG3754 thisG3778 manG3588G444 isG1510 a sinnerG268.

25HeG1565 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004, WhetherG1487 he beG1510 a sinnerG268 or no, I knowG1492 notG3756: one thingG1520 I knowG1492, thatG3754, whereas I wasG1510 blindG5185, nowG737 I seeG991.

26ThenG1161 said theyG3004 to himG846 againG3825, WhatG5101 did heG4160 to theeG4771? howG4459 opened heG455 thineG4771 eyesG3588G3788?

27He answeredG611 themG846, I have toldG3004 youG4771 alreadyG2235, andG2532 ye didG191 notG3756 hearG191: whereforeG5101 would yeG2309 hearG191 it againG3825? willG2309 yeG4771 alsoG2532 beG1096 hisG846 disciplesG3101?

28ThenG3767 they reviledG3058 himG846, andG2532 saidG3004, ThouG4771 artG1510 hisG1565 discipleG3101; butG1161 weG1473 areG1510 Moses’G3588G3475 disciplesG3101.

29WeG1473 knowG1492 thatG3754 GodG3588G2316 spakeG2980 unto MosesG3475: as for thisG3778 fellow, we knowG1492 notG3756 from whenceG4159 he isG1510.

30The manG3588G444 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, WhyG1063 hereinG3778 isG1510 a marvellous thingG2298, thatG3754 yeG4771 knowG1492 notG3756 from whenceG4159 he isG1510, andG2532 yet he hath openedG455 mineG1473 eyesG3588G3788.

31NowG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754 GodG3588G2316 hearethG191 notG3756 sinnersG268: butG235 ifG1437 any manG5100 beG1510 a worshipper of GodG2318, andG2532 doethG4160 hisG846 willG3588G2307, himG3778 he hearethG191.

32SinceG1537 the world beganG3588G165 was itG191 notG3756 heardG191 thatG3754 any manG5100 openedG455 the eyesG3788 of one that was bornG1080 blindG5185.

33IfG1487 this manG3778 wereG1510 notG3361 ofG3844 GodG2316, he couldG1410 doG4160 nothingG3756.

34They answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004 unto himG846, ThouG4771 wastG1080 altogetherG3650 bornG1080 inG1722 sinsG266, andG2532 dostG1321 thouG4771 teachG1321 usG1473? AndG2532 they castG1544 himG846 outG1854.

35JesusG3588G2424 heardG191 thatG3754 they had castG1544 himG846 outG1854; andG2532 when he had foundG2147 himG846, he saidG3004 unto himG846, DostG4100 thouG4771 believeG4100 onG1519 the SonG3588G5207 of GodG3588G2316?

36HeG1565 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG3004, WhoG5101 is heG1510, LordG2962, thatG2443 I might believeG4100 onG1519 himG846?

37AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto himG846, Thou hastG3708 bothG2532 seenG3708 himG846, andG2532 it isG1510 heG1565 that talkethG2980 withG3326 theeG4771.

38AndG1161 heG3588 saidG5346, LordG2962, I believeG4100. AndG2532 he worshippedG4352 himG846.
