And they called the man a second time, him that was blind, and said unto him, Praise God: we know that this [34] man is a sinner. He answered and said unto them, Whether he be a sinner, I know [35] not: I know one thing, that I was blind, and I now see. They said unto him again, [36] [Arabic, p. 139] What did he unto thee? how opened he for thee thine eyes?[John 9:27] He said unto them, I said unto you, and ye did not hear: what wish ye further to hear?
