בָּרוּךְ הַמָּקוֹם, בָּרוּךְ הוּא, בָּרוּךְ שֶׁנָּתַן תּוֹרָה לְעַמּוֹ יִשְׂרָאֵל, בָּרוּךְ הוּא
כְּנֶגֶד אַרְבָּעָה בָנִים דִּבְּרָה תוֹרָה: אֶחָד חָכָם, וְאֶחָד רָשָׁע, וְאֶחָד תָּם, וְאֶחָד שֶׁאֵינוֹ יוֹדֵעַ לִשְׁאוֹל

Blessed is the Omnipresent, Blessed is God, Blessed is the One who gave the Torah to our people Israel, Blessed is God.
This corresponds to four children: one who is wise, one who is wicked, one who is simple, and one who doesn't know to ask.

חָכָם מָה הוּא אוֹמֵר? מָה הָעֵדוֹת וְהַחֻקִּים וְהַמִּשְׁפָּטִים אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה ה' אֱלֹהֵינוּ אֶתְכֶם. וְאַף אַתָּה אֱמוֹר לוֹ כְּהִלְכוֹת הַפֶּסַח: אֵין מַפְטִירִין אַחַר הַפֶּסַח אֲפִיקוֹמָן

What does the WISE one say? "What are these testimonies, statutes and judgments that the Lord our God commanded you?”
You should answer, "We may not eat the afikoman after the Pesach sacrifice…”

רָשָׁע מָה הוּא אוֹמֵר? מָה הָעֲבוֹדָה הַזּאֹת לָכֶם. לָכֶם – וְלֹא לוֹ. וּלְפִי שֶׁהוֹצִיא אֶת עַצְמוֹ מִן הַכְּלָל כָּפַר בְּעִקָּר. וְאַף אַתָּה הַקְהֵה אֶת שִׁנָּיו וֶאֱמוֹר לוֹ: "בַּעֲבוּר זֶה עָשָׂה ה' לִי בְּצֵאתִי מִמִּצְרָיִם". לִי וְלֹא־לוֹ. אִלּוּ הָיָה שָׁם, לֹא הָיָה נִגְאָל

What does the WICKED one say? "'What is this worship to you?”
'To you' and not 'to him.' Since he excluded himself from the collective, he denied a key principle of Jewish faith.
And accordingly, you should blunt his teeth and say to him, "For the sake of this, did God do [this] for me in my going out of Egypt."
'For me' and not 'for him.' If he had been there, he would not have been redeemed!

תָּם מָה הוּא אוֹמֵר? מַה זּאֹת? וְאָמַרְתָּ אֵלָיו בְּחוֹזֶק יָד הוֹצִיאָנוּ ה' מִמִּצְרַיִם מִבֵּית עֲבָדִים

What does the SIMPLE one say? "What is this?"
And you will say to him, "With the strength of His hand did the God take us out from Egypt, from the house of bondage."

 

וְשֶׁאֵינוֹ יוֹדֵעַ לִשְׁאוֹל – אַתְּ פְּתַח לוֹ, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר, וְהִגַּדְתָּ לְבִנְךָ בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא לֵאמֹר, בַּעֲבוּר זֶה עָשָׂה ה' לִי בְּצֵאתִי מִמִּצְרָיִם

And regarding the ONE WHO DOESN'T KNOW TO ASK: You should open the dialogue for him.
As it is stated (Exodus 13:8), "And you will speak to your son on that day saying: For the sake of this, did God do this for me in my going out of Egypt."
