Yohana 9
1 U Yesu ka si hi, nato iguri u fyen wa ndi a yar shishi tu rji ni wa ba ngrji'a.
As Jesus walked along, he saw a man who had been blind from 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?”
His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who 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 did this man sin nor his parents, but it happened so that the works of God might be revealed 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 do the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one 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.
After saying this, he spit on the ground and made mud with the saliva. Then he rubbed the mud on the blind man's 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 Siloam” (which means “Sent”). So he went and washed, and came away 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?”
Then his neighbors and those who had previously seen that he was blind were saying, “Is this not the man who used to sit and beg?”
9 Bari ba tre, a wawuyi, bari ba tisan, 'A'a, a rju wawu yi,' iwawu tre, ahime wawuyi.”
Others were saying, “It is he.” Still others were saying, “He is like him.” But he kept saying, “I am he.”
10 U ba tre niwu, ba bu'u shishi'a ni he?
So they said to him, “How were yoʋr 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, “A man named Jesus made mud, rubbed it on my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.’ So I went and washed, and received my sight.”
12 U ba miyen, “Ahe ni tsen?” wa hla, mina to na.”
They said to him, “Where is this man?” He said, “I do not know.”
13 U ba nji igu hi iwa ana indji u fyen ni Farisawa.
So they brought the man who was once blind to the Pharisees.
14 Ahe ni ivi u asabar wa Yesu a hu meme na bu'u shishi niwu.
(Now it was a Sabbath when Jesus made the mud and opened the man's 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.”
The Pharisees again asked him how he had received his sight, and he said to them, “He put mud on my eyes, and I washed, and now 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.
Then some of the Pharisees were saying, “This man is not from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath.” But others were saying, “How can a sinful man do such signs?” And a division arose 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.”
So they said to the blind man again, “What do yoʋ say about him, since he opened yoʋr eyes?” The man 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.
Now the Jews did not believe that the man had been blind and had received his sight until they called in his parents.
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?”
They asked them, “Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does 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, “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 can now see or who opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age; ask him. He will 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.
(His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone should confess that Jesus was the Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.
23 Nitu kima, ba itima ba tre, “A sen ndi ye, miyen.”
That is why his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.”)
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.”
So for a second time they called in the man who 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 answered, “Whether he is a sinner or not, I do not know; one thing I know, that though I was blind, now I see.”
26 U ba tre ahi geri a ti niwu?” ani he a bu'u shishi niwu?
Again they said to him, “What did he do to yoʋ? How did he open yoʋr eyes?”
27 Wa hla, “Mi hla ni yiwu ye, bina wo na ahi geri bi son bi wo ngari?
He answered them, “I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become his disciples?”
28 U ba mren na hla, u almajerema, ki ta ki almare u Musa.
Then they reviled him and said, “Yoʋ are a disciple of that man, but we are 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 has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, we do not know where he is from.”
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 them, “Why, this is an amazing thing, that you do not know where he is from, and yet he 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.
We know that God does not listen to sinners, but he does listen to anyone who is devout and does his will.
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)
Never before has anyone heard of someone opening the eyes of a man born blind. (aiōn g165)
33 Ide indji'a ana rji ni Rji na, ana ya ti kperi na.”
If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.”
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 him, “Yoʋ were born entirely in sin, and yet yoʋ are trying to teach us?” And they threw 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 thrown him out, so he found the man and said to him, “Do yoʋ believe in the Son of God?”
36 Wa sa na tre, “Ahi nha, Bachi, wa mi kpayenme niwu?”
He answered, “Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?”
37 Yesu hla niwu, “U to, ahi wawuyi wa a si tre niwu.”
Jesus said to him, “Yoʋ have seen him, and the one speaking with yoʋ is he.”
38 Igu'a tre, Bachi, mi kpayenme, wa no ninkon ma (kwu gbarju niwu).
The man said, “I believe, Lord.” And he worshiped 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).”
Then Jesus said, “For judgment I have come into this world, so that those who do not see may see, and those who see may become blind.”
40 Bari ni Farisawa ba, wa ba heni wu'a ba wo wayi, na miye, “Ki me ki yarshi?”
Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this and said to him, “We are not also blind, are we?”
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 would have no sin, but now you say, ‘We see.’ Therefore your sin remains.
