One Thing I Know

24So they called 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.”

25So that man answered, “Whether he is a sinner, I do not know. One thing I do know: though I was blind, now I see.”

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

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

28They reviled him and said, “You are that man's disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.”

29We know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, we do not know where he is from.

30The man answered and said to them, “This is the remarkable thing: you do not know where he is from, and yet he opened my eyes.”

31We know that God does not listen to sinners; but if anyone is God-fearing and does his will, he listens to him.

32From of old it has never been heard that anyone opened the eyes of one born blind.

33If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.

34They answered and said to him, “You were born entirely in sins, and are you teaching us?” And they cast him out.
