John 9:18-25
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 9
18
The Jews then did not believe
it
about him, that he had been blind and had received sight, until they called the parents of the very one who had received his sight,
19
and they questioned them, saying, 'Is this your son, who you say was born blind? Then how does he now see?'
20
His parents then answered and said, 'We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
21
but how he now sees, we do not know; or who opened his eyes, we do not know. Ask him; he is of age, he will speak for himself.'
22
His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had already reached the decision that if anyone confessed Him to be Christ, he was to be excommunicated from the synagogue.
23
It was
for this reason
that
his parents said, 'He is of age; ask him.'
24
So for a second time they summoned the man who had been blind, and said to him, 'Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner.'
25
He then answered, 'Whether He is a sinner, I do not know; one thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see.'
King James Version
Chapter 9
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.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 9
18
The Jews did not believe this about him—that he was blind and received sight—until they summoned the parents of the one who had received his sight.
19
They asked them, "Is this your son, the one you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"
20
"We know this is our son and that he was born blind," his parents answered.
21
"But we don’t know how he now sees, and we don’t know who opened his eyes. Ask him; he’s of age. He will speak for himself."
22
His parents said these things because they were afraid of the Jews, since the Jews had already agreed that if anyone confessed him as the Messiah, he would be banned from the synagogue.
23
This is why his parents said, "He’s of age; ask him."
24
So a second time they summoned the man who had been blind and told him, "Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner."
25
He answered, "Whether or not he’s a sinner, I don’t know. One thing I do know: I was blind, and now I can see!"
New Living Translation
Chapter 9
18
The Jewish leaders still refused to believe the man had been blind and could now see, so they called in his parents.
19
They asked them, 'Is this your son? Was he born blind? If so, how can he now see?'
20
His parents replied, 'We know this is our son and that he was born blind,
21
but we don’t know how he can see or who healed him. Ask him. He is old enough to speak for himself.'
22
His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders, who had announced that anyone saying Jesus was the Messiah would be expelled from the synagogue.
23
That’s why they said, 'He is old enough. Ask him.'
24
So for the second time they called in the man who had been blind and told him, 'God should get the glory for this, because we know this man Jesus is a sinner.'
25
I don’t know whether he is a sinner,' the man replied. 'But I know this: I was blind, and now I can see!'
English Standard Version
Chapter 9
18
The Jews did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of the man who had received his sight
19
and asked them, "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"
20
His parents answered, "We know that this is our son and that he was born blind.
21
But how he now sees we do not know, nor do we know who opened his eyes. Ask him; he is of age. He will speak for himself."
22
(His parents said these things because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone should confess Jesus to be Christ, he was to be put out of the synagogue.)
23
Therefore his parents said, "He is of age; ask him."
24
So for the second time they called the man who had been blind and said to him, "Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner."
25
He answered, "Whether he is a sinner I do not know. One thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see."
New International Version
Chapter 9
18
They still did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight until they sent for the man’s parents.
19
"Is this your son?" they asked. "Is this the one you say was born blind? How is it that now he can see?"
20
"We know he is our son," the parents answered, "and we know he was born blind.
21
But how he can see now, or who opened his eyes, we don’t know. Ask him. He is of age; he will speak for himself."
22
His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders, who already had decided that anyone who acknowledged that Jesus was the Messiah would be put out of the synagogue.
23
That was why his parents said, "He is of age; ask him."
24
A second time they summoned the man who had been blind. "Give glory to God by telling the truth," they said. "We know this man is a sinner."
25
He replied, "Whether he is a sinner or not, I don’t know. One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see!"
New King James Version
Chapter 9
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 who had received his sight.
19
And they asked them, saying, “Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does 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 sees we do not know, or who opened his eyes we do not know. He is of age; ask him. He will speak for himself.”
22
His parents said these
things
because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had agreed already that if anyone confessed
that
He
was
Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.
23
Therefore his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.”
24
So they again called the man who was blind, and said to him, “Give God the glory! We know that this Man is a sinner.”
25
He answered and said, “Whether He is a sinner
or not
I do not know. One thing I know: that though I was blind, now I see.”
