Yohana 9
1 Che Yesu paŵapitaga, ŵambweni mundu jwangalola chitandile kupagwa kwakwe.
And as he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth.
2 Nipele ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵausisye, “Jwakwiganya, Ana ŵaani ŵatesile sambi mpaka mundu ju apagwe ali ngakulola, mundu ju pane achaŵelesi ŵakwe?”
And his disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"
3 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ngaŵa mundu ju atamuno achaŵelesi ŵakwe ŵaŵatesile sambi, nambo apagwile jwangalola kuti machili ga Akunnungu gawoneche gachipanganyaga masengo mu utame wakwe.
Jesus answered, "Neither did this man sin, nor his parents; but, that the works of God might be revealed in him.
4 Tukusachilwa kupanganya masengo ga ŵandumile une ŵala muusi uli chiŵela. Pakuŵa chilo chikwika ni ngapagwa mundu jwakukombola kupanganya masengo.
We must work the works of him who sent me, while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.
5 Ndili chiŵela mchilambo, uneji ndili lulanga lwa ŵandu ŵa pachilambo.”
While I am in the world, I am the light of the world."
6 Che Yesu paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo, ŵasunile mata paasi ŵagumbile litaka ni mata ni kumpakasya pa meeso jwangalola jula.
When he had said this, he spat on the ground, made mud with the saliva, anointed the blind man's eyes with the mud,
7 Nipele ŵansalile jwangalola jula, “Njaule nkasukusule mu litanda lya Siloamu.” Siloamu malumbo gakwe “Ŵaŵalajiswe.” Pelepo jwangalola jo ŵajawile ni kusukusula, nipele ŵausile kumusi ali nkulola.
and said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which means "Sent"). So he went away, washed, and came back seeing.
8 Nipele, ŵapachiŵandi ŵakwe ni aŵala ŵaŵambweni ali nkuŵendaŵenda kundanda ŵaliusisye, “Ana ajuju nganaŵa ajula mundu juŵaŵendaŵendaga?”
The neighbors therefore, and those who saw that he was a beggar before, said, "Is this not the one who used to sit and beg?"
9 Ŵandu ŵane ŵatite, “Ni jwelejo.” Nambo ŵane ŵatite, “Ajuju nganaŵa jwelejo agambile kulandana.” Nambo nsyene ŵatite, “Uneji ndili jujojo junaŵendaŵendaga!”
Some said, "It is he." Others said, "He looks like him." He said, "I am he."
10 Nipele ŵambusisye, “Sambano iŵele uli nkulola?”
They therefore were asking him, "How were your eyes opened?"
11 Nombewo ŵajanjile, “Mundu jwakuŵilanjikwa Che Yesu jula ŵagumbile litaka, ŵambakesye pa meeso ni kuusalila, ‘Njaule nkasukusule mu litanda lya Siloamu.’ Pelepo uneji najawile ni panasukusulaga natandite kulola.”
He answered, "A man called Jesus made mud, anointed my eyes, and said to me, 'Go to Siloam, and wash.' So I went away and washed, and I received sight."
12 Ni ŵambusisye, “Ana mundu jo alikwapi?” Nombejo ŵaajanjile, “Kwaalini!”
Then they asked him, "Where is he?" He said, "I do not know."
13 Nipele ŵandu ŵanjawisye ajula juŵaliji ngakulola kundanda kwa Mafalisayo.
They brought him who had been blind to the Pharisees.
14 Lyuŵa lyo Che Yesu paŵagumbile litaka ni kumbugula meeso jwangalola jula lyaliji Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
Now it was a Sabbath on the day when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.
15 Nipele Mafalisayo ŵambusisye ajula mundu juŵaliji ngakulola kundanda, “Ana nkombwele chinauli kulola?” Nombejo ŵajanjile, “Ŵambakesye litaka pa meeso, none nasukuswile ni sambano ngulola.”
Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. He said to them, "He put mud on my eyes, I washed, and I see."
16 Mafalisayo ŵane ŵatite, “Mundu jwatesile yeleyi nganatyochela kwa Akunnungu pakuŵa ngakugakamula malajisyo ga Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.” Nambo ŵandu ŵane ŵatite, “Ana mundu jwali ni sambi chakombole kutendekanya imanyisyo mpela ayiyi?” Nipele, kwaliji ni utinda mwa ŵandu wo.
Some therefore of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, because he does not keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" There was division among them.
17 Nipele Mafalisayo ŵambusisye sooni juŵaliji ngakulola jula, “Nkuti ambugwile meeso genu, sambano mmwejo nkuŵecheta ichichi nkati mundu jo?” Nombejo ŵajanjile, “Mundu jo ali jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu!”
Therefore they asked the blind man again, "What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."
18 Achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi nganajitichisya kuti mundu jo ŵaliji ngakulola chitandilile kundanda ni sambano akulola, mpaka paŵaaŵilasile achaŵelesi ŵakwe.
The Jewish leaders therefore did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him who had received his sight,
19 Ŵausisye, “Ana aju ngati ni mwanagwenu junkuti ŵapagwile ngakulola? Ana sambano akombwele chinauli kulola?”
and asked them, "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"
20 Achaŵelesi ŵakwe ŵajanjile, “Tukwimanyilila kuti ajuju ni mwanagwetu ni tukwimanyilila kuti ŵapagwile jwangalola.
His parents answered them, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
21 Nambo akombwele chinauli kulola ngatukumanyilila, ni jwantesile akombole kulola nombejo ngatukwamanyilila. Mumbusye nsyene, jwelejo ali jwankule, chaliŵalanje.”
but how he now sees, we do not know; or who opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself."
22 Achaŵelesi ŵakwe ŵaŵechete yeleyo ligongo ŵaajogwepe achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi, pakuŵa ŵelewo ŵalangene chile kuti, mundu jwalijose ajitichisyaga kuti Che Yesu ali Kilisito Jwakuwombola chaŵinjikwe mu nyuumba ja kupopelela.
His parents said these things because they feared the Jewish leaders; for the Jewish leaders had already agreed that if anyone would confess him as the Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.
23 Lyelelyo ni ligongo achaŵelesi ŵakwe ŵatite, “Jwelejo ali jwankule, mumbusye nsyene.”
Therefore his parents said, "He is of age. Ask him."
24 Nipele ŵambilasile kaaŵili juŵapagwile ali ngakulola jula ni kunsalila, “Nnumbile kwa Akunnungu iŵaga nkusala isyene! Uweji tukwimanyilila kuti mundu jwannamisye mmwe ali jwa sambi.”
So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, "Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner."
25 Nombejo ŵajanjile, “Iŵaga mundu ju ali jwa sambi pane nganakola sambi une ngangwimanyilila. Nambo une nguchimanyilila chindu chimo, kuti naliji jwangalola ni sambano ngulola.”
He therefore answered, "I do not know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see."
26 Nipele Ŵambusisye sooni, “Ana antesile chichi? Ana agaugwile chinauli meeso genu?”
They said to him, "What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?"
27 Mundu jo ŵajanjile, “Nansalile sampano, ni ŵanyamwe nganinsaka kupilikanichisya, kwachichi nkusaka kupilikanila sooni ngani ji? Uli, nombe ŵanyamwe nkusaka kuŵa ŵakulijiganya ŵakwe?”
He answered them, "I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You do not also want to become his disciples, do you?"
28 Nambo ŵanyawo ŵantukene achitiji, “Mmwe ndi jwakulijiganya jwa mundu jo, nambo uweji tuli ŵakulijiganya ŵa che Musa.
They insulted him and said, "You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
29 Uweji tuimanyi kuti Akunnungu ŵaŵechete ni che Musa, nambo mundu ju ngatukukumanyilila kwakopochele!”
We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we do not know where he comes from."
30 Nombejo ŵaajanjile, “Ŵanyamwe nkuusimosya! Ŵanyamwe ngankukumanyilila kwakopochele mundu ju, nambo agaugwile meeso gangu!
The man answered them, "How amazing. You do not know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes.
31 Tukumanyilila kuti Akunnungu ngakwapilikanila ŵandu ŵaali ni sambi, nambo Akunnungu akumpilikanila mundu jwakunchimbichisya ni kupanganya yakusaka.
We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshipper of God, and does his will, he listens to him.
32 Chitandile gumbikwa chilambo ngapagwa mundu jwapilikene kuti mundu agaugwile meeso ga mundu jwapagwilwe ali ngakulola. (aiōn g165)
Since the world began it has never been heard of that anyone opened the eyes of someone born blind. (aiōn g165)
33 Iŵaga mundu ju nganatyochela kwa Akunnungu, ngaakakombole kupanganya chachili chose!”
If this man were not from God, he could do nothing."
34 Ŵanyawo ŵajanjile, “Mmwejo mwapagwilwe ni kukula mu sambi ana nomwe nkusaka kutujiganya uweji?” Nipele Ŵayahudi ŵambinjile mundu jo mu nyuumba ja kupopelela.
They answered him, "You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?" They threw him out.
35 Che Yesu ŵapilikene kuti mundu juŵannamisye jula aŵinjikwe pa Nyuumba ja Kupopelela. Nipele paŵansimene ŵambusisye, “Ana mmwejo nkunkulupilila Mwana jwa Mundu?”
Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of Man?"
36 Mundu jo ŵajanjile, “Ambuje, ana ŵelewo ali ŵaani, musalile kuti nakulupilile.”
He answered, "Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?"
37 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Sambano mummweni, nombe ni jwelejo jwakukunguluka nomwe.”
Jesus said to him, "You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you."
38 Nipele mundu jo ŵatite, “Ambuje, ngukulupilila!” Ni ŵatindiŵele ni kwakotamila.
He said, "Lord, I believe." and he worshiped him.
39 Che Yesu ŵatite, “Uneji nyiche pachilambo pano kukwasapulanya ŵandu, kuti ŵangalola akombole kulola, ni ŵakulola aŵeje ŵangalola.”
Jesus said, "I came into this world for judgment, that those who do not see may see; and that those who see may become blind."
40 Mafalisayo ŵane ŵaŵaliji pamo ni Che Yesu ŵagapilikene maloŵe go, ni ŵambusisye, “Uli, nowe ŵakwe tuli ŵangalola?”
Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, "Are we also blind?"
41 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Nkaliji ŵangalola, ngankaŵe ni sambi, nambo sambano ŵanyamwe nkulitenda, ‘Uweji tukulola,’ yelei ikulosya kuti nli mu sambi.”
Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sin; but since you say, 'We see,' your sin remains.
