John 9:24-32 Amplified Bible (AMP)

24. So the second time they summoned the man who had been born blind, and said to him, Now give God the glory (praise). This Fellow we know is only a sinner (a wicked person).

25. Then he answered, I do not know whether He is a sinner and wicked or not. But one thing I do know, that whereas I was blind before, now I see.

26. So they said to him, What did He [actually] do to you? How did He open your eyes?

27. He answered, I already told you and you would not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Can it be that you wish to become His disciples also?

28. And they stormed at him [they jeered, they sneered, they reviled him] and retorted, You are His disciple yourself, but we are the disciples of Moses.

29. We know for certain that God spoke with Moses, but as for this Fellow, we know nothing about where He hails from.

30. The man replied, Well, this is astonishing! Here a Man has opened my eyes, and yet you do not know where He comes from. [That is amazing!]

31. We know that God does not listen to sinners; but if anyone is God-fearing and a worshiper of Him and does His will, He listens to him.

32. Since the beginning of time it has never been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a man born blind.
