And [as he] went away, he saw a man blind from birth.

And his disciples asked him, saying, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he should be born blind?"

They brought him--the one formerly blind--to the Pharisees.

So they said to the blind man again, "What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?" And he said, "He is a prophet."

So the Jews did not believe concerning him that he had been blind and received sight, until they summoned the parents of the one who received sight.

And they asked them, saying, "Is this man your son, whom you say was born blind? Then how does he now see?"

So they summoned the man who had been blind for the second time and said to him, "Give glory to God! We know that this man is a sinner!"

Then that man replied, "Whether he is a sinner I do not know. One [thing] I know--that [although I] was blind, now I see!"

From {time immemorial} it has not been heard that someone opened the eyes of one born blind.

[Some] of the Pharisees who were with him heard these [things] and said to him, "We are not also blind, [are we]?"

Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would not have sin. But now you say, 'We see,' your sin remains.

Others were saying, "These are not the words of one who is possessed by a demon! A demon is not able to open the eyes of the blind, [is it]?"

But some of them said, "Was not this man who opened the eyes of the blind able to do [something] so that this man also would not have died?"

"He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, lest they see with [their] eyes and understand with [their] hearts and turn, and I heal them."
