    18 But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.

    19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?

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

    21 But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.

    22 These [words] spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

    23 Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

    24 Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

    25 He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner [or no], I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

    26 Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

    27 He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear [it] again? will ye also be his disciples?
