| John 9:9 | Others said, It is he: others said, No, but he is like him. He said, I am [he]. | "Yes it is," replied some of them. "No it is not," said others, "but he is like him."

| John 9:15 | Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight.

| John 9:21 | but how he now seeth, we know not; or who opened his eyes, we know not: ask him; he is of age; he shall speak for himself. | but how it is that he can now see or who has opened his eyes we do not know. Ask him himself; he is of full age; he himself will give his own account of it." | but how he now sees, we don't know; or who opened his eyes, we don't know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself." |
| John 9:22 | These things said his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man should confess him [to be] Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue. | Such was their answer, because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had already settled among themselves that if any one should acknowledge Jesus as the Christ, he should be excluded from the synagogue. | His parents said these things because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if any man would confess him as Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue. |

| John 9:29 | We know that God hath spoken unto Moses: but as for this man, we know not whence he is. | We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this fellow we do not know where he comes from." | We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don't know where he comes from." |
| John 9:30 | The man answered and said unto them, Why, herein is the marvel, that ye know not whence he is, and [yet] he opened mine eyes. | "Why, this is marvellous!" the man replied; "you do not know where he comes from, and yet he has opened my eyes! | The man answered them, "How amazing!

| John 9:37 | Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and he it is that speaketh with thee. | "You have seen Him," said Jesus; "and not only so: He is now speaking to you." | Jesus said to him, "You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you." |
| John 9:38 | And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him. | "I believe, Sir," he said. And he threw himself at His feet. | He said, "Lord, I believe!" and he worshipped him. |

| John 9:41 | Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye would have no sin: but now ye say, We see: your sin remaineth. | "If you were blind," answered Jesus, "you would have no sin; but as a matter of fact you boast that you see. So your sin remains!" | Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, 'We see.' Therefore your sin remains. |
