John 9
1 And as Iesus passed by, he sawe a man which was blinde from his birth.
Awo Yesu bwe yali ng’atambula, n’alaba omusajja eyazaalibwa nga muzibe w’amaaso.
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sinne, this man, or his parents, that he was borne blinde?
Abayigirizwa be ne bamubuuza nti, “Labbi, ani eyayonoona, ono oba bazadde be alyoke azaalibwe nga muzibe w’amaaso?”
3 Iesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents, but that the workes of God should be shewed on him.
Yesu n’addamu nti, “Ku bonna omusajja ono newaakubadde bazadde be tekuliiko yayonoona, wabula kino kyabaawo emirimu gya Katonda girabikire ku ye.
4 I must worke the workes of him that sent me, while it is day: the night commeth when no man can worke.
Kale kitugwanidde okukola emirimu gy’oyo eyantuma, obudde nga bukyali misana. Ekiro kijja omuntu mw’atasobolera kukola.
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
Kyokka Nze bwe mbeera mu nsi mba musana gwa nsi.”
6 Assoone as he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spettle, and anointed the eyes of the blinde with the clay,
Yesu bwe yamala okwogera bw’atyo, n’awanda amalusu ku ttaka n’atabula, n’alisiiga ku maaso g’omusajja oyo.
7 And sayd vnto him, Go wash in the poole of Siloam (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came againe seeing.
N’amugamba nti, “Genda onaabe mu kidiba kya Sirowamu,” amakulu nti, “Eyatumibwa”. Awo omusajja n’agenda, n’anaaba, n’adda ng’alaba.
8 Nowe the neighbours and they that had seene him before, when he was blinde, sayd, Is not this he that sate and begged?
Baliraanwa b’oyo eyawonyezebwa era n’abalala abaali bamumanyi nga muzibe w’amaaso, asabiriza, ne beebuuzaganya nti, “Ono si ye musajja oli eyatuulanga wali ng’asabiriza?”
9 Some said, This is he: and other sayd, He is like him: but he himselfe sayd, I am he.
Abamu ne bagamba nti, “Ye ye,” abalala ne bagamba nti, “Nedda, anaamufaanana bufaananyi.” Kyokka ye n’abagamba nti, “Ye nze ddala.”
10 Therefore they sayd vnto him, Howe were thine eyes opened?
Bo kwe ku mubuuza nti, “Kale amaaso go gaazibuse gatya?”
11 He answered, and sayd, The man that is called Iesus, made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and sayde vnto me, Goe to the poole of Siloam and wash. So I went and washed, and receiued sight.
N’abategeeza nti, “Omuntu ayitibwa Yesu, yatabula ettaka n’alinsiiga ku maaso, n’andagira nti, ‘Genda e Sirowamu onaabe.’ Ne ŋŋenda ne naaba, ne nsobola okulaba.”
12 Then they sayd vnto him, Where is he? He sayd, I can not tell.
Ne bamubuuza nti, “Ali ludda wa?” N’addamu nti, “Simanyi.”
13 They brought to the Pharises him that was once blinde.
Awo ne batwala omusajja eyali omuzibe w’amaaso eri Abafalisaayo.
14 And it was the Sabbath day, when Iesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
Olunaku olwo Yesu lwe yatabulirako ettaka n’azibula omusajja oyo amaaso, lwali lwa Ssabbiiti.
15 Then againe the Pharises also asked him, how he had receiued sight. And hee sayd vnto them, He layd clay vpon mine eyes, and I washed, and doe see.
Abafalisaayo nabo ne babuuza omuntu oyo engeri gye yazibuka amaaso. Awo n’ababuulira ng’agamba nti, “Yesu yatabula ettaka n’alinsiiga ku maaso, ne naaba, kaakano ndaba.”
16 Then said some of the Pharises, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the Sabbath day. Others sayd, Howe can a man that is a sinner, doe such miracles? and there was a dissension among them.
Abamu ku bo ne bagamba nti, “Omusajja oyo Yesu teyava wa Katonda kubanga takwata Ssabbiiti.” Kyokka abalala ne bagamba nti, “Omuntu omwonoonyi ayinza atya okukola eby’amagero ebifaanana bwe bityo?” Ne wabaawo okwawukana kunene mu bo.
17 Then spake they vnto the blinde againe, What sayest thou of him, because he hath opened thine eyes? And he sayd, He is a Prophet.
Awo Abafalisaayo ne bakyukira omusajja eyali omuzibe w’amaaso ne bamubuuza nti, “Omuntu oyo eyakuzibula amaaso olowooza wa ngeri ki?” Omusajja n’addamu nti, “Ndowooza nnabbi.”
18 Then the Iewes did not beleeue him (that he had bene blinde, and receiued his sight) vntill they had called the parents of him that had receiued sight.
Ne batakkiriza nti omusajja oyo yali muzibe, okutuusa lwe baayita abazadde be,
19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your sonne, whom ye say was borne blinde? How doeth he nowe see then?
ne bababuuza nti, “Ono mutabani wammwe? Era yazaalibwa nga muzibe wa maaso? Kale obanga bwe kiri kaakano asobola atya okulaba?”
20 His parents answered them, and sayd, We know that this is our sonne, and that he was borne blinde:
Bakadde be ne baddamu nti, “Tumanyi ng’oyo ye mutabani waffe era nga yazaalibwa muzibe wa maaso.
21 But by what meanes hee nowe seeth, we know not: or who hath opened his eyes, can we not tell: he is olde ynough: aske him: hee shall answere for himselfe.
Naye engeri gye yazibukamu amaaso tetugimanyi, era n’eyamuzibula amaaso tetumumanyi. Wuuyo musajja mukulu mumwebuulize ajja kweyogerera.”
22 These wordes spake his parents, because they feared the Iewes: for the Iewes had ordeined already, that if any man did confesse that he was Christ, he should be excommunicate out of the Synagogue.
Ekyaboogeza batyo lwa kutya Bayudaaya. Kubanga Abayudaaya baali bamaze okuteesa nti buli ayatula nti Yesu ye Kristo agobebwe mu kuŋŋaaniro.
23 Therefore sayde his parents, Hee is olde ynough: aske him.
Ekyo kye kyaboogeza nti, “Wuuyo musajja mukulu mumwebuulize.”
24 Then againe called they the man that had bene blinde, and sayd vnto him, Giue glory vnto God: we know that this man is a sinner.
Awo ate ne bongera okuyita omusajja eyali omuzibe w’amaaso ne bamugamba nti, “Gulumiza Katonda, kubanga tumanyi omusajja oyo mwonoonyi.”
25 Then he answered, and sayd, Whether hee be a sinner or no, I can not tell: one thing I know, that I was blinde, and nowe I see.
Omusajja n’addamu nti, “Oba mwonoonyi oba si mwonoonyi simanyi, wabula kye mmanyi kiri kimu nti nnali muzibe w’amaaso, naye kaakano ndaba.”
26 Then sayd they to him againe, What did he to thee? howe opened he thine eyes?
Kyebaava bamubuuza nti, “Kiki kye yakola? Amaaso yagazibula atya?”
27 Hee answered them, I haue tolde you already, and yee haue not heard it: wherefore would yee heare it againe? will yee also be his disciples?
Omusajja n’addamu nti, “Nabategeezezza dda ne mutawuliriza. Lwaki ate mwagala mbaddiremu? Nammwe mwagala kufuuka bayigirizwa be?”
28 Then reuiled they him, and sayd, Be thou his disciple: we be Moses disciples.
Ne bamuvuma ne bamugamba nti, “Ggwe oli muyigirizwa we. Naye ffe tuli bayigirizwa ba Musa.
29 We know that God spake with Moses: but this man we know not from whence he is.
Ffe tumanyi nga Katonda yayogera ne Musa, naye oyo tetumanyi gy’ava.”
30 The man answered, and sayde vnto them, Doutlesse, this is a marueilous thing, that ye know not whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.
Ye n’addamu nti, “Kino kitalo, mmwe obutamanya gye yava ate nga nze yanzibula amaaso.
31 Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him heareth he.
Tumanyi nti Katonda tawulira balina bibi, naye awulira abo abamutya era abakola by’ayagala.
32 Since the world began, was it not heard, that any man opened the eyes of one that was borne blinde. (aiōn g165)
Ensi kasookedde ebaawo tewalabikangawo yali azibudde maaso ga muntu eyazaalibwa nga muzibe wa maaso. (aiōn g165)
33 If this man were not of God, hee could haue done nothing.
Kale omuntu ono eyanzibula amaaso singa teyava wa Katonda ekyo teyandikisobodde.”
34 They answered, and sayd vnto him, Thou art altogether borne in sinnes, and doest thou teach vs? so they cast him out.
Awo ne bamuboggolera nga bagamba nti, “Ggwe eyazaalirwa mu bibi, ggw’oyigiriza ffe?” Ne bamusindika ebweru.
35 Iesus heard that they had cast him out: and when he had found him, he sayd vnto him, Doest thou beleeue in the Sonne of God?
Yesu n’ategeera nga bamusindise ebweru. Bwe yamusanga n’amugamba nti, “Ggwe okkiriza Omwana w’Omuntu?”
36 He answered, and sayd, Who is he, Lord, that I might beleeue in him?
Omusajja n’amubuuza nti, “Ssebo, y’aluwa mmukkirize?”
37 And Iesus sayd vnto him, Both thou hast seene him, and he it is that talketh with thee.
Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Omulabye, ye wuuyo ayogera naawe.”
38 Then he sayd, Lord, I beleeue, and worshipped him.
Omusajja n’agamba nti, “Mukama wange, nzikiriza!” N’amusinza.
39 And Iesus sayd, I am come vnto iudgement into this world, that they which see not, might see: and that they which see, might be made blinde.
Awo Yesu n’agamba nti, “Najja mu nsi okusala omusango, abatalaba balabe, ate naabo abalaba babe bazibe ba maaso.”
40 And some of the Pharises which were with him, heard these things, and sayd vnto him, Are we blinde also?
Abamu ku Bafalisaayo abaali bayimiridde awo bwe baawulira ebigambo ebyo ne bamubuuza nti, “Ky’ogamba nti naffe tuli bazibe ba maaso?”
41 Iesus sayd vnto them, If ye were blinde, ye should not haue sinne: but nowe ye say, We see: therefore your sinne remaineth.
Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Singa mubadde bazibe ba maaso, temwandibadde na kibi. Naye kubanga mugamba nti tulaba, ekibi kyammwe kyekiva kibasigalako.”
