Sie sprachen wieder zu dem Blinden: Was sagst du von ihm, daß er hat deine Augen aufgetan? Er aber sprach: Er ist ein Prophet.
Vuelven a decir al ciego: ¿Tú, qué dices del que te abrió los ojos? Y Él dijo: Que es profeta.
Volvieron a preguntar al ciego: «¿Qué dices tú de él, puesto que te abrió los ojos?». Él respondió: «Es un profeta».
Ils dirent encore à l'aveugle: Toi, que dis-tu de lui, sur ce qu'il t'a ouvert les yeux? Il répondit: C'est un prophète.
Dissero adunque di nuovo al cieco: Che dici tu di lui, ch’egli ti ha aperti gli occhi? Egli disse: Egli è profeta.
Tornaram, pois, a dizer ao cego: Tu, que dizes daquele que te abriu os olhos? E ele respondeu: Que é profeta.
於是他們又對那盲人說:「他開了你的眼睛,你說他是怎樣的人呢?」他說:「他是個先知。」
