25 He answered, “Whether he is a sinner I do not know. One thing I do know, that though I ^fwas blind, now I see.” 26 They said to him, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?” 27 He answered them, ^g“I have told you already, and you would not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become his disciples?” 28 And they reviled him, saying, “You are his disciple, but ^hwe are disciples of Moses. 29 We know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, ⁱwe do not know where he comes from.” 30 The man answered, “Why, this is ^jan amazing thing! ^kYou do not know where he comes from, and yet he opened my eyes. 31 We know that ^lGod does not listen to sinners, but ^mif anyone is a worshiper of God and does his will, God listens to him. 32 Never since the world began has it been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a man born blind. 33 ⁿIf this man were not from God, he could do nothing.” 34 They answered him, ^o“You were born in utter sin, and would you teach us?” And they ^pcast him out.

35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out, and having found him he said, “Do you believe in ^qthe Son of Man?”¹ 36 He answered, ^r“And who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?” 37 Jesus said to him, “You have seen him, and ^sit is he who is speaking to you.” 38 He said, “Lord, I believe,” and he worshiped him.
