< John 9 >

1 And Jesus passing by, saw a man, who was blind from his birth:
et praeteriens vidit hominem caecum a nativitate
2 And his disciples asked him: Rabbi, who hath sinned, this man, or his parents, that he should be born blind?
et interrogaverunt eum discipuli sui rabbi quis peccavit hic aut parentes eius ut caecus nasceretur
3 Jesus answered: Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
respondit Iesus neque hic peccavit neque parentes eius sed ut manifestetur opera Dei in illo
4 I must work the works of him that sent me, whilst it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
me oportet operari opera eius qui misit me donec dies est venit nox quando nemo potest operari
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
quamdiu in mundo sum lux sum mundi
6 When he had said these things, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and spread the clay on his eyes,
haec cum dixisset expuit in terram et fecit lutum ex sputo et linuit lutum super oculos eius
7 And said to him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloe, which is interpreted, Sent. He went therefore, and washed, and he came seeing.
et dixit ei vade lava in natatoria Siloae quod interpretatur Missus abiit ergo et lavit et venit videns
8 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.
itaque vicini et qui videbant eum prius quia mendicus erat dicebant nonne hic est qui sedebat et mendicabat alii dicebant quia hic est
9 But others said: No, but he is like him. But he said: I am he.
alii autem nequaquam sed similis est eius ille dicebat quia ego sum
10 They said therefore to him: How were thy eyes opened?
dicebant ergo ei quomodo aperti sunt oculi tibi
11 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.
respondit ille homo qui dicitur Iesus lutum fecit et unxit oculos meos et dixit mihi vade ad natatoriam Siloae et lava et abii et lavi et vidi
12 And they said to him: Where is he? He saith: I know not.
dixerunt ei ubi est ille ait nescio
13 They bring him that had been blind to the Pharisees.
adducunt eum ad Pharisaeos qui caecus fuerat
14 Now it was the sabbath, when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
erat autem sabbatum quando lutum fecit Iesus et aperuit oculos eius
15 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.
iterum ergo interrogabant eum Pharisaei quomodo vidisset ille autem dixit eis lutum posuit mihi super oculos et lavi et video
16 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.
dicebant ergo ex Pharisaeis quidam non est hic homo a Deo quia sabbatum non custodit alii dicebant quomodo potest homo peccator haec signa facere et scisma erat in eis
17 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.
dicunt ergo caeco iterum tu quid dicis de eo qui aperuit oculos tuos ille autem dixit quia propheta est
18 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,
non crediderunt ergo Iudaei de illo quia caecus fuisset et vidisset donec vocaverunt parentes eius qui viderat
19 And asked them, saying: Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then doth he now see?
et interrogaverunt eos dicentes hic est filius vester quem vos dicitis quia caecus natus est quomodo ergo nunc videt
20 His parents answered them, and said: We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
responderunt eis parentes eius et dixerunt scimus quia hic est filius noster et quia caecus natus est
21 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.
quomodo autem nunc videat nescimus aut quis eius aperuit oculos nos nescimus ipsum interrogate aetatem habet ipse de se loquatur
22 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.
haec dixerunt parentes eius quia timebant Iudaeos iam enim conspiraverant Iudaei ut si quis eum confiteretur Christum extra synagogam fieret
23 Therefore did his parents say: He is of age, ask himself.
propterea parentes eius dixerunt quia aetatem habet ipsum interrogate
24 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.
vocaverunt ergo rursum hominem qui fuerat caecus et dixerunt ei da gloriam Deo nos scimus quia hic homo peccator est
25 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.
dixit ergo ille si peccator est nescio unum scio quia caecus cum essem modo video
26 They said then to him: What did he to thee? How did he open thy eyes?
dixerunt ergo illi quid fecit tibi quomodo aperuit tibi oculos
27 He answered them: I have told you already, and you have heard: why would you hear it again? will you also become his disciples?
respondit eis dixi vobis iam et audistis quid iterum vultis audire numquid et vos vultis discipuli eius fieri
28 They reviled him therefore, and said: Be thou his disciple; but we are the disciples of Moses.
maledixerunt ei et dixerunt tu discipulus illius es nos autem Mosi discipuli sumus
29 We know that God spoke to Moses: but as to this man, we know not from whence he is.
nos scimus quia Mosi locutus est Deus hunc autem nescimus unde sit
30 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.
respondit ille homo et dixit eis in hoc enim mirabile est quia vos nescitis unde sit et aperuit meos oculos
31 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.
scimus autem quia peccatores Deus non audit sed si quis Dei cultor est et voluntatem eius facit hunc exaudit
32 From the beginning of the world it hath not been heard, that any man hath opened the eyes of one born blind. (aiōn g165)
a saeculo non est auditum quia aperuit quis oculos caeci nati (aiōn g165)
33 Unless this man were of God, he could not do any thing.
nisi esset hic a Deo non poterat facere quicquam
34 They answered, and said to him: Thou wast wholly born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
responderunt et dixerunt ei in peccatis natus es totus et tu doces nos et eiecerunt eum foras
35 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?
audivit Iesus quia eiecerunt eum foras et cum invenisset eum dixit ei tu credis in Filium Dei
36 He answered, and said: Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?
respondit ille et dixit quis est Domine ut credam in eum
37 And Jesus said to him: Thou hast both seen him; and it is he that talketh with thee.
et dixit ei Iesus et vidisti eum et qui loquitur tecum ipse est
38 And he said: I believe, Lord. And falling down, he adored him.
at ille ait credo Domine et procidens adoravit eum
39 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.
dixit ei Iesus in iudicium ego in hunc mundum veni ut qui non vident videant et qui vident caeci fiant
40 And some of the Pharisees, who were with him, heard: and they said unto him: Are we also blind?
et audierunt ex Pharisaeis qui cum ipso erant et dixerunt ei numquid et nos caeci sumus
41 Jesus said to them: If you were blind, you should not have sin: but now you say: We see. Your sin remaineth.
dixit eis Iesus si caeci essetis non haberetis peccatum nunc vero dicitis quia videmus peccatum vestrum manet
