Yohana 9
1 U Yesu ka si hi, nato iguri u fyen wa ndi a yar shishi tu rji ni wa ba ngrji'a.
And Jesus passing by, saw a man, who was blind from his birth:
2 U almajere ma ba miyen wu, “Mala, ahi nha mba latre, ahi gu'a ka a ba Itma ba Iyimma, wa ba ngrji ti fyen naki?”
And his disciples asked him: Rabbi, who hath sinned, this man, or his parents, that he should be born blind?
3 Yesu hla ni bawu, ana igu'a na a na, Itima bi Iyima na wa ba la tre na, ani ndu iIti Irji tsira.
Jesus answered: Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
4 A gbigbi ndu ta ki ti ndu wa a ton me rji ni mumla. Ichu ni ye iwa idiori na tindu na.
I must work the works of him that sent me, whilst it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
5 Ni wa mi he ni gbungbulu'a ime yi mi ikpan u gbungbulu'a.
As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 Ni kogon wa Yesu hla ikpi biyi a ti ten yo meme, na tsie iten ni meme'a, na vu gban ni shishi gu'a.
When he had said these things, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and spread the clay on his eyes,
7 Na hla niwu hi, ni hi ngla ni takpo ma u Siloan (wa ani hla ndi mi ton).” Igu'a luhi na ka ngla, a kaban ye na ni to.
And said to him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloe, which is interpreted, Sent. He went therefore, and washed, and he came seeing.
8 U indji bi igon kanhlan mba ni bi wa ba zi to rji ni sisenmu'a ani bre, u ba tre, “ana igu yi'i wa ani son na ni bre'a na?”
The neighbours therefore, and they who had seen him before that he was a beggar, said: Is not this he that sat and begged? Some said: This is he.
9 Bari ba tre, a wawuyi, bari ba tisan, 'A'a, a rju wawu yi,' iwawu tre, ahime wawuyi.”
But others said: No, but he is like him. But he said: I am he.
10 U ba tre niwu, ba bu'u shishi'a ni he?
They said therefore to him: How were thy eyes opened?
11 I wa sa ni bawu, iguri wa ba yo ni Yesu a hu meme na gban ni mu shishi na hla nimu, hi ni ne Siluwan ni ngla u mi hi ka ngla, u shishi lu ni to.
He answered: That man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed my eyes, and said to me: Go to the pool of Siloe, and wash. And I went, I washed, and I see.
12 U ba miyen, “Ahe ni tsen?” wa hla, mina to na.”
And they said to him: Where is he? He saith: I know not.
13 U ba nji igu hi iwa ana indji u fyen ni Farisawa.
They bring him that had been blind to the Pharisees.
14 Ahe ni ivi u asabar wa Yesu a hu meme na bu'u shishi niwu.
Now it was the sabbath, when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
15 U Farisawa ba la miyen ngari ya da a fe nito bubu, a hla bawu, a yo meme ni mu shishi u mi nglau zizan ni to.”
Again therefore the Pharisees asked him, how he had received his sight. But he said to them: He put clay upon my eyes, and I washed, and I see.
16 Ba ni mi Farisawa ba tre, iguyi a indji Rji na, ana ni to ivi u asabar na.” U bari ba tre, “Indji u latre ni ti ni heri na to ti gban biki?” ba ga kpa ti hari.
Some therefore of the Pharisees said: This man is not of God, who keepeth not the sabbath. But others said: How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.
17 U ba la miyen indji u fyen ngari, “U tre ni ngeri ni tuma'a tu rji chachu iwa a bu'u shishi me?” Indji nfyen tre, ahi Anebi.”
They say therefore to the blind man again: What sayest thou of him that hath opened they eyes? And he said: He is a prophet.
18 Ye zizan me Farisawa ba me ba na kpa yeme nda ahi wawuyi indji u nfyen na wa ba bu'u shishima na se wa ba yo ba Time ni ba Iyi ma iwa a shishima bu'a.
The Jews then did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight,
19 U ba miyen ba Tima ni Yima, iwa yi ahi vren bi wa bi tre bi ngrji ni fifyen? Ani he mba ani to zizan?”
And asked them, saying: Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then doth he now see?
20 U ba Tima ba hla, “Ki to iwa yi a vren mbu wa ki ngrji ni fyen.
His parents answered them, and said: We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
21 Ati ni nani ya, kina to na, miyen a sen ndi, ani ya tre kima.”
But how he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: ask himself: he is of age, let him speak for himself.
22 Ba tima ba tre biyi, nitu wa ba si tie sisir Yahudawa. Yahudawa ba ba riga zi indji iwa a tre ikpe wa ani hu gon ma andi ahi Kristi, ba ban ta yo ni mi ta kpoma.
These things his parents said, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had already agreed among themselves, that if any man should confess him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
23 Nitu kima, ba itima ba tre, “A sen ndi ye, miyen.”
Therefore did his parents say: He is of age, ask himself.
24 Ngari ba la yo u gyu u ha ba la yo igu fyen na hla niwu, “No Rji ni kon. Ki to igu yi a ndi u latre.”
They therefore called the man again that had been blind, and said to him: Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.
25 I gu ki hla bawu, mina to na ka a hi ndji u latre na. Ikpe riri mi to na'a mina ndji u fyen, u zizan mi to.”
He said therefore to them: If he be a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that whereas I was blind, now I see.
26 U ba tre ahi geri a ti niwu?” ani he a bu'u shishi niwu?
They said then to him: What did he to thee? How did he open thy eyes?
27 Wa hla, “Mi hla ni yiwu ye, bina wo na ahi geri bi son bi wo ngari?
He answered them: I have told you already, and you have heard: why would you hear it again? will you also become his disciples?
28 U ba mren na hla, u almajerema, ki ta ki almare u Musa.
They reviled him therefore, and said: Be thou his disciple; but we are the disciples of Moses.
29 Ki to Irji a tre ni mu, ki na to i wurji wa iwayi a rji'a na.”
We know that God spoke to Moses: but as to this man, we know not from whence he is.
30 Igu'a sa bawu na tre, iwayi a kpe u shan (mamaki), iwa bina to iwurji iwa a rji'a na, me a bu'u shishi mu.
The man answered, and said to them: Why, herein is a wonderful thing, that you know not from whence he is, and he hath opened my eyes.
31 Ki to Irji na wo indji bi latre na, indji wa anita no tuma na ni tie ikpe wa ani son, ani wo wu.
Now we know that God doth not hear sinners: but if a man be a server of God, and doth his will, him he heareth.
32 Rji ni tuntru mu ni gbugbulu'a ki ti bre wo ndi idiori bu'u shishi ni indji wa ba ngrji ni fyen na. (aiōn g165)
From the beginning of the world it hath not been heard, that any man hath opened the eyes of one born blind. (aiōn g165)
33 Ide indji'a ana rji ni Rji na, ana ya ti kperi na.”
Unless this man were of God, he could not do any thing.
34 U ba sa niwu nha hla niwu, wawu'u ba ngrji ni latre, i u la si tsoro ta? U ba ban ta rju ra.
They answered, and said to him: Thou wast wholly born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
35 Yesu a wo andi ba zu rju nimi hekeli'a a wau na tre, u kpayenme ni Vren Ndji?
Jesus heard that they had cast him out: and when he had found him, he said to him: Dost thou believe in the Son of God?
36 Wa sa na tre, “Ahi nha, Bachi, wa mi kpayenme niwu?”
He answered, and said: Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?
37 Yesu hla niwu, “U to, ahi wawuyi wa a si tre niwu.”
And Jesus said to him: Thou hast both seen him; and it is he that talketh with thee.
38 Igu'a tre, Bachi, mi kpayenme, wa no ninkon ma (kwu gbarju niwu).
And he said: I believe, Lord. And falling down, he adored him.
39 Yesu tre, “A tron miye, miye ni gbungbulu yi ni ndu biwa ba na to na ndu ba to, U bi wa ba ta to ndu ba yarshi (tifyen).”
And Jesus said: For judgment I am come into this world; that they who see not, may see; and they who see, may become blind.
40 Bari ni Farisawa ba, wa ba heni wu'a ba wo wayi, na miye, “Ki me ki yarshi?”
And some of the Pharisees, who were with him, heard: and they said unto him: Are we also blind?
41 Yesu hla bawu, bina yarshi, bina to na, zizan bi tre, kito, naki latre bi riheri.
Jesus said to them: If you were blind, you should not have sin: but now you say: We see. Your sin remaineth.
