* These words spake his parents , because they feared the Jews : for the Jews had agreed already , that if any man did confess that he was Christ , he should be put out of the synagogue . * Therefore said his parents , He is of age ; ask him . * 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 . * 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 . * Then said they to him again , What did he to thee ? how opened he thine eyes ? * 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 ? * Then they reviled him , and said , Thou art his disciple ; but we are Moses ' disciples . * We know that God spake unto Moses : as for this fellow , we know not from whence he is . * The man answered and said unto them , Why herein is a marvellous thing , that ye know not from whence he is , and yet he hath opened mine eyes . * Now we know that God heareth not sinners : but if any man be a worshipper of God , and doeth his will , him he heareth . * Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind . * If this man were not of God , he could do nothing . * They answered and said unto him , Thou wast altogether born in sins , and dost thou teach us ? And they cast him out .
