25. 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!”
26. So they said to him, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”
27. He replied to them, “I told you already and you did not listen! Why do you want to hear it again? You do not want to become his disciples also, do you?”
28. They reviled him and said, “You are his disciple! But we are disciples of Moses!
29. We know that God has spoken to Moses, but we do not know where this man is from.”
30. The man answered and said to them, “For the remarkable thing is this, that you do not know where he is from, and he opened my eyes!
31. We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if someone is devout and does his will, he listens to this one.
32. From time immemorial it has not been heard that someone opened the eyes of one born blind.
33. If this man were not from God, he would not be able to do anything!”
