John 9:21-23

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

²¹ but we do not know how it is that now he sees, nor do we know who opened his eyes. 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 agreed that anyone who confessed Jesus^[a] to be the Messiah^[b] would be put out of the synagogue. ²³ Therefore his parents said, ‘He is of age; ask him.’
