< John 9 >
1 As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth.
και παραγων ειδεν ανθρωπον τυφλον εκ γενετησ
2 His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”
και ηρωτησαν αυτον οι μαθηται αυτου λεγοντεσ ραββι τισ ημαρτεν ουτοσ η οι γονεισ αυτου ινα τυφλοσ γεννηθη
3 Jesus answered, “This man did not sin, nor did his parents, but that the works of God might be revealed in him.
απεκριθη ιησουσ ουτε ουτοσ ημαρτεν ουτε οι γονεισ αυτου αλλ ινα φανερωθη τα εργα του θεου εν αυτω
4 I must work the works of him who sent me while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.
εμε δει εργαζεσθαι τα εργα του πεμψαντοσ με εωσ ημερα εστιν ερχεται νυξ οτε ουδεισ δυναται εργαζεσθαι
5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
οταν εν τω κοσμω ω φωσ ειμι του κοσμου
6 When he had said this, he spat on the ground, made mud with the saliva, anointed the blind man’s eyes with the mud,
ταυτα ειπων επτυσεν χαμαι και εποιησεν πηλον εκ του πτυσματοσ και επεχρισεν τον πηλον επι τουσ οφθαλμουσ του τυφλου
7 and said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which means “Sent”). So he went away, washed, and came back seeing.
και ειπεν αυτω υπαγε νιψαι εισ την κολυμβηθραν του σιλωαμ ο ερμηνευεται απεσταλμενοσ απηλθεν ουν και ενιψατο και ηλθεν βλεπων
8 Therefore the neighbors and those who saw that he was blind before said, “Is not this he who sat and begged?”
οι ουν γειτονεσ και οι θεωρουντεσ αυτον το προτερον οτι τυφλοσ ην ελεγον ουχ ουτοσ εστιν ο καθημενοσ και προσαιτων
9 Others were saying, “It is he.” Still others were saying, “He looks like him.” He said, “I am he.”
αλλοι ελεγον οτι ουτοσ εστιν αλλοι δε οτι ομοιοσ αυτω εστιν εκεινοσ ελεγεν οτι εγω ειμι
10 They therefore were asking him, “How were your eyes opened?”
ελεγον ουν αυτω πωσ ανεωχθησαν σου οι οφθαλμοι
11 He answered, “A man called Jesus made mud, anointed my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.’ So I went away and washed, and I received sight.”
απεκριθη εκεινοσ και ειπεν ανθρωποσ λεγομενοσ ιησουσ πηλον εποιησεν και επεχρισεν μου τουσ οφθαλμουσ και ειπεν μοι υπαγε εισ την κολυμβηθραν του σιλωαμ και νιψαι απελθων δε και νιψαμενοσ ανεβλεψα
12 Then they asked him, “Where is he?” He said, “I do not know.”
ειπον ουν αυτω που εστιν εκεινοσ λεγει ουκ οιδα
13 They brought him who had been blind to the Pharisees.
αγουσιν αυτον προσ τουσ φαρισαιουσ τον ποτε τυφλον
14 It was a Sabbath when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.
ην δε σαββατον οτε τον πηλον εποιησεν ο ιησουσ και ανεωξεν αυτου τουσ οφθαλμουσ
15 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.”
παλιν ουν ηρωτων αυτον και οι φαρισαιοι πωσ ανεβλεψεν ο δε ειπεν αυτοισ πηλον επεθηκεν μου επι τουσ οφθαλμουσ και ενιψαμην και βλεπω
16 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?” So there was division among them.
ελεγον ουν εκ των φαρισαιων τινεσ ουτοσ ο ανθρωποσ ουκ εστιν παρα του θεου οτι το σαββατον ου τηρει αλλοι ελεγον πωσ δυναται ανθρωποσ αμαρτωλοσ τοιαυτα σημεια ποιειν και σχισμα ην εν αυτοισ
17 Therefore they asked the blind man again, “What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?” He said, “He is a prophet.”
λεγουσιν τω τυφλω παλιν συ τι λεγεισ περι αυτου οτι ηνοιξεν σου τουσ οφθαλμουσ ο δε ειπεν οτι προφητησ εστιν
18 The Jews 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,
ουκ επιστευσαν ουν οι ιουδαιοι περι αυτου οτι τυφλοσ ην και ανεβλεψεν εωσ οτου εφωνησαν τουσ γονεισ αυτου του αναβλεψαντοσ
19 and asked them, “Is this your son, whom you say was born blind? How then does he now see?”
και ηρωτησαν αυτουσ λεγοντεσ ουτοσ εστιν ο υιοσ υμων ον υμεισ λεγετε οτι τυφλοσ εγεννηθη πωσ ουν αρτι βλεπει
20 His parents answered them, “We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
απεκριθησαν δε αυτοισ οι γονεισ αυτου και ειπον οιδαμεν οτι ουτοσ εστιν ο υιοσ ημων και οτι τυφλοσ εγεννηθη
21 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.”
πωσ δε νυν βλεπει ουκ οιδαμεν η τισ ηνοιξεν αυτου τουσ οφθαλμουσ ημεισ ουκ οιδαμεν αυτοσ ηλικιαν εχει αυτον ερωτησατε αυτοσ περι εαυτου λαλησει
22 His parents said these things because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if any man would confess him as Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.
ταυτα ειπον οι γονεισ αυτου οτι εφοβουντο τουσ ιουδαιουσ ηδη γαρ συνετεθειντο οι ιουδαιοι ινα εαν τισ αυτον ομολογηση χριστον αποσυναγωγοσ γενηται
23 Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”
δια τουτο οι γονεισ αυτου ειπον οτι ηλικιαν εχει αυτον ερωτησατε
24 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.”
εφωνησαν ουν εκ δευτερου τον ανθρωπον οσ ην τυφλοσ και ειπον αυτω δοσ δοξαν τω θεω ημεισ οιδαμεν οτι ο ανθρωποσ ουτοσ αμαρτωλοσ εστιν
25 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.”
απεκριθη ουν εκεινοσ και ειπεν ει αμαρτωλοσ εστιν ουκ οιδα εν οιδα οτι τυφλοσ ων αρτι βλεπω
26 They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”
ειπον δε αυτω παλιν τι εποιησεν σοι πωσ ηνοιξεν σου τουσ οφθαλμουσ
27 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?”
απεκριθη αυτοισ ειπον υμιν ηδη και ουκ ηκουσατε τι παλιν θελετε ακουειν μη και υμεισ θελετε αυτου μαθηται γενεσθαι
28 They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
ελοιδορησαν αυτον και ειπον συ ει μαθητησ εκεινου ημεισ δε του μωσεωσ εσμεν μαθηται
29 We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we do not know where he comes from.”
ημεισ οιδαμεν οτι μωση λελαληκεν ο θεοσ τουτον δε ουκ οιδαμεν ποθεν εστιν
30 The man answered them, “How amazing! You do not know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes.
απεκριθη ο ανθρωποσ και ειπεν αυτοισ εν γαρ τουτω θαυμαστον εστιν οτι υμεισ ουκ οιδατε ποθεν εστιν και ανεωξεν μου τουσ οφθαλμουσ
31 We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does his will, he listens to him.
οιδαμεν δε οτι αμαρτωλων ο θεοσ ουκ ακουει αλλ εαν τισ θεοσεβησ η και το θελημα αυτου ποιη τουτου ακουει
32 From the age (aiōn ) it has never been heard of that anyone opened the eyes of someone born blind.
εκ του αιωνοσ ουκ ηκουσθη οτι ηνοιξεν τισ οφθαλμουσ τυφλου γεγεννημενου (aiōn )
33 If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.”
ει μη ην ουτοσ παρα θεου ουκ ηδυνατο ποιειν ουδεν
34 They answered him, “You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?” Then they threw him out.
απεκριθησαν και ειπον αυτω εν αμαρτιαισ συ εγεννηθησ ολοσ και συ διδασκεισ ημασ και εξεβαλον αυτον εξω
35 Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding him, he said, “Do you believe in the Son of God?”
ηκουσεν ο ιησουσ οτι εξεβαλον αυτον εξω και ευρων αυτον ειπεν αυτω συ πιστευεισ εισ τον υιον του θεου
36 He answered, “Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?”
απεκριθη εκεινοσ και ειπεν και τισ εστιν κυριε ινα πιστευσω εισ αυτον
37 Jesus said to him, “You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you.”
ειπεν δε αυτω ο ιησουσ και εωρακασ αυτον και ο λαλων μετα σου εκεινοσ εστιν
38 He said, “Lord, I believe!” and he worshiped him.
ο δε εφη πιστευω κυριε και προσεκυνησεν αυτω
39 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.”
και ειπεν ο ιησουσ εισ κριμα εγω εισ τον κοσμον τουτον ηλθον ινα οι μη βλεποντεσ βλεπωσιν και οι βλεποντεσ τυφλοι γενωνται
40 Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, “Are we also blind?”
και ηκουσαν εκ των φαρισαιων ταυτα οι οντεσ μετ αυτου και ειπον αυτω μη και ημεισ τυφλοι εσμεν
41 Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, ‘We see.’ Therefore your sin remains.
ειπεν αυτοισ ο ιησουσ ει τυφλοι ητε ουκ αν ειχετε αμαρτιαν νυν δε λεγετε οτι βλεπομεν η ουν αμαρτια υμων μενει
