John 9:10-21 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

10. So they said to him, “[So] how were your eyes opened?”

11. He replied, “The man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and told me, ‘Go to Siloam and wash.’ So I went there and washed and was able to see.”

12. And they said to him, “Where is he?” He said, “I don’t know.”

13. They brought the one who was once blind to the Pharisees.

14. Now Jesus had made clay and opened his eyes on a sabbath.

15. So then the Pharisees also asked him how he was able to see. He said to them, “He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and now I can see.”

16. So some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, because he does not keep the sabbath.” [But] others said, “How can a sinful man do such signs?” And there was a division among them.

17. So they said to the blind man again, “What do you have to say about him, since he opened your eyes?” He said, “He is a prophet.”

18. Now the Jews did not believe that he had been blind and gained his sight until they summoned the parents of the one who had gained his sight.

19. They asked them, “Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How does he now see?”

20. His parents answered and said, “We know that this is our son and that he was born blind.

21. We do not know how he sees now, nor do we know who opened his eyes. Ask him, he is of age; he can speak for him self.”
