Johan 9
1 A khum phai vaengah a thaang lamkah mik aka dael hlang te a hmuh.
AND as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.
2 Te vaengah a hnukbang rhoek loh amah te a dawt uh tih, “Rhabbi, unim aka tholh tih mikdael la a thaang, amah a, a manu napa a?” a ti uh.
And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3 Jesuh loh, “Amah moenih, a manu napa khaw a tholh moenih. Tedae anih dongah Pathen kah bisai te a tueng ham dongah ni.
Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
4 Khohnin a om vaengah kai aka tueih kah bi te mamih loh saii ham a kuek. Khoyin ha pawk vaengah saii ham coeng mahpawh.
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
5 Diklai ah ka om vaengah, diklai kah vangnah la ka om,” a ti nah.
As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 Hekah he a thui vanneh diklai a timthoih tih timtui neh dikpo a bol. Te phoeiah dikpo te a mik dongah a hluk pah.
When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,
7 Te phoeiah anih te, “Cet lamtah Siloam tuibuem ah sil,” a ti nah. [Te tah a tueih coeng te a thuingaih]. Te dongah cet tih a silh phoeiah miktueng la ha pawk.
And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
8 Te dongah imben rhoek neh anih te buhbih ni tila aka hmu noek rhoek loh, “Ngol tih buh aka bih te anih moenih a,” a ti uh.
The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?
9 A tloe rhoek loh, “Anih ni,” a ti uh. A tloe rhoek loh, “Moenih, tedae anih phek la om,” a ti uh. Amah loh, “Kai kamah ni,” a ti nah.
Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.
10 Te dongah anih te, “Te koinih na mik te metlam a tueng?” a ti na uh.
Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?
11 Te long te, “Jesuh la a khue uh hlang pakhat loh dikpo a bol tih kai mik a hluk. Te phoeiah kamah te, ‘Siloam la cet lamtah sil,’ a ti. Te dongah ka cet tih ka silh vaengah ka mik tueng,” a ti nah.
He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.
12 Te vaengah, “Anih te melam a om,” a ti na uh hatah, “Ka ming pawh,” a ti nah.
Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.
13 Hnukbuet kah mikdael te Pharisee rhoek taengah a khuen uh.
They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.
14 Jesuh loh dikpo a bol tih a mik a tueng sak vaengkah khohnin te Sabbath la om.
And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
15 Te dongah Pharisee rhoek long khaw metlam a tueng thai tila anih te koep a dawt uh. Te long te amih taengah, “Ka mik ah dikpo a hluk tih ka silh hatah ka mik tueng,” a ti nah.
Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.
16 Te dongah Pharisee rhoek khuikah hlangvang loh, “Sabbath te a tuem pawt dongah anih te Pathen taeng lamkah hlang moenih,” a ti uh. Tedae a tloe rhoek loh, “Hlang tholh loh hebang miknoek metlam a saii thai eh?” a ti uh tih amamih ah paekboenah la om.
Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.
17 Te dongah mikdael te, “Na mik a tueng sak dongah anih kawng balae na thui eh,” koep a ti na uh hatah, “Anih tah tonghma ni,” a ti nah.
They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.
18 Judah rhoek loh anih mikdael la om tih koep tueng tila a tangnah uh pawt dongah mik aka tueng coeng kah a manu napa te luemluem a khue uh.
But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.
19 Te phoeiah amih rhoi te a dawt uh tih, “Anih he na capa ni nama? Anih ni mikdael la thaang na ti nama? Te koinih metlam a hmuh tarha?” a ti na uh.
And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?
20 Te dongah a manu napa loh a doo rhoi tih, “Anih he ka ca la om tih mikdael la a thaang te ka ming rhoi.
His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
21 Tedae metla a tueng tarha khaw ka ming rhoi pawh. A mik aka ong pah te khaw ka ming pawh. Amah te dawt uh a lungcuei coeng. Amah kawng te amah loh a thui bitni,” a ti rhoi.
But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.
22 A manu napa loh Judah rhoek te a rhih dongah ni te te a thui. Khat khat long ni Khrih te a phoei atah a hael la om saeh tila Judah rhoek loh oepsoeh la a kotluep uh.
These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
23 Te dongah ni a manu napa loh, “A lungcuei coeng amah te dawt uh,” a ti nah rhoi.
Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
24 Te dongah mikdael la aka om hlang te a pabae la a khue uh tih, “Anih te hlang tholh ni tila mamih loh m'ming uh dongah Pathen te thangpomnah pae lah,” a ti na uh.
Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.
25 Te long khaw, “Hlang tholh la a om khaw ka ming pawh. Pakhat ka ming tah mikdael la aka om loh ka hmuh coeng,” a ti nah.
He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
26 Te dongah amah te, “Na taengah balae a saii? Na mik te metlam a tueng sak?” a ti na uh.
Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?
27 Amih te, “Nangmih taengah ka thui coeng dae na yaak uh moenih. Ba ham nim koep yaak ham na ngaih uh. Nangmih khaw anih hnukbang la om ham na ngaih uh pawt nim?” a ti nah.
He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?
28 Te vaengah anih te ol a bai uh tih, “Namah la anih kah hnukbang la na om, kaimih tah Moses kah hnukbang rhoek ni.
Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses’ disciples.
29 Pathen loh Moses a voek te ka ming uh. Tedae anih me lamkah a phoe khaw ka ming uh moenih,” a ti na uh.
We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.
30 Tekah hlang loh amih te a doo tih, “A khuet la a om lalah me lamkah ha phoe khaw na ming uh pawt te. Tedae ka mik he n'dai sak coeng.
The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.
31 Pathen loh hlangtholh rhoek kah ol te a hnatun moenih. Tedae Pathen aka hinyahkung pakhat te om tih a kongaih a saii atah anih ol a hnatun pah te m'ming.
Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
32 Mikdael la aka thang khat khat kah mik koep tueng tila khosuen lamkah n'yaak noek moenih. (aiōn g165)
Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind. (aiōn g165)
33 Pathen taeng lamkah anih ha om pawt koinih saii thai loengloeng mahpawh,” a ti nah.
If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.
34 Te dongah anih te a doo uh tih, “Nang tholh hoeng la na thaang tih nang loh kaimih nan thuituen van,” a ti na uh phoeiah amah te phawn a vai uh.
They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
35 Anih phawn poengla a haek uh te Jesuh loh a yaak phoeiah anih te a hmuh tih, “Hlang capa te na tangnah a?” a ti nah.
Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?
36 Te long te a doo tih, “Boeipa, amah te ta, te vaengah anih te ka tangnah mako?” a ti nah.
He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?
37 Jesuh loh anih te, “Anih te na hmuh tih nang taengah aka cal te anih ni,” a ti nah.
And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.
38 Te dongah, “Boeipa, kan tangnah,” a ti nah tih a bawk.
And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.
39 Te vaengah Jesuh loh, “Laitloeknah ham he diklai la ka pawk coeng. Te daengah ni aka hmu pawt rhoek loh a hmuh vetih aka hmuh loh mikdael la a om eh,” a ti nah.
And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.
40 Tekah te a taengkah aka om Pharisee rhoek loh a yaak uh. Te vaengah amah te, “Kaimih khaw mikdael la ka om uh pawt nim?” a ti na uh.
And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?
41 Jesuh loh, “Mikdael la na om uh koinih tholhnah na khueh uh mahpawh. Tedae tahae ah ka miktueng na ti uh dongah nangmih kah tholhnah te naeh pueng,” a ti nah.
Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.
