John 9
1 AND as he passed along, he saw a man blind from his birth.
Wakati achipfuura, akaona munhu bofu kubva pakuberekwa.
2 And his disciples inquired of him, saying, Rabbi, who was in fault, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?
Vadzidzi vake ndokumubvunza, vachiti: Rabhi, ndiani wakatadza, uyu kana vabereki vake, kuti aberekwe ari bofu?
3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man been in fault, nor his parents; but it is in order to make manifest the works of God in him.
Jesu akapindura akati: Uyu haana kutadza, kana vabereki vake; asi kuti mabasa aMwari aoneswe maari.
4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night is coming, when no man can work.
Ndinofanira kushanda mabasa ewakandituma achiri masikati; usiku hunouya, apo pasina munhu angagona kushanda.
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
Kana ndichiri panyika, ndiri chiedza chenyika.
6 So speaking, he spat on the ground, and made mud with the spittle, and anointed with the mud the eyes of the blind man;
Wakati areva izvi, akapfira pasi, akaita dope nemate, akazodza dope pameso ebofu,
7 and said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which signifies, Sent.) Then he went and washed, and came seeing.
akati kwaari: Enda unoshamba mudziva reSiroami (zvinoshandurwa kuti: Wakatumwa). Naizvozvo wakaenda akashamba, akadzoka achiona.
8 The neighbours therefore, and they who saw him formerly, that he was blind, said, Is not this the man who was sitting and begging?
Naizvozvo vavakidzani nevaimuona pakutanga kuti wakange ari bofu, vakati: Haasi iye uyu waigara achipemha here?
9 Some said, That this is he: but others, That he is like him: he himself said, I am he.
Vamwe vakati: Uyu ndiye; asi vamwe vakati: Wakaita saiye. Iye akati: Ndini.
10 When said they to him, How were thine eyes opened?
Naizvozvo vakati kwaari: Meso ako akazarurwa sei?
11 he answered and said, A man called Jesus made mud, and anointed my eyes, and said to me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: then I went, and washing received sight.
Akapindura izvo akati: Munhu anonzi Jesu wakaita dope, akazodza meso angu, akati kwandiri: Enda kudziva reSiroami unoshamba. Zvino ndikaenda ndikashamba, ndikaonazve.
12 They said to him, Where is he? He replied, I know not.
Naizvozvo vakati kwaari: Iye aripi? Akati: Handizivi.
13 They brought him to the Pharisees, who had before been blind.
Vakamuisa kuVaFarisi, iye waimbova bofu.
14 (Now it was the sabbath-day when Jesus made the mud, and opened his eyes.)
Zvino raiva sabata apo Jesu akaita dope, akasvinudza meso ake.
15 The Pharisees therefore questioned him again, How he had received sight? And he told them, He put mud upon my eyes, and I washed, and do see.
Naizvozvo zvekare VaFarisi vakamubvunzawo, kuti wakaonazve sei. Akati kwavari: Waisa dope pameso angu ndikashamba, ndava kuona.
16 Then said certain of the Pharisees, This man is not from God, because he observeth not the sabbath. Others said, How is it possible for a wicked man to do such miracles? And there was a division among them.
Naizvozvo vamwe veVaFarisi vakati: Munhu uyu haabvi kuna Mwari, nokuti haachengeti sabata. Vamwe vakati: Munhu ari mutadzi angaita sei zviratidzo zvakadai? Kukava nekupesana pakati pavo.
17 They say to the blind man again, What sayest thou of him? that he opened thine eyes? Then he replied, That he is a prophet.
Vakatizve kubofu: Iwe unoti kudini pamusoro pake, sezvo asvinudza meso ako? Akati: Muporofita.
18 Then the Jews did not believe that he had been blind, and received sight, until that they had called the parents of him who had received sight.
Zvino VaJudha havana kutenda pamusoro pake, kuti wakange ari bofu, akaonazve, kusvikira vadana vabereki vewakaonazve,
19 And they questioned them, saying, Is this your son, of whom ye say, that he was born blind? how then doth he now see?
zvino vakavabvunza, vachiti: Uyu mwanakomana wenyu imwi wamunoti wakaberekwa ari bofu here? Naizvozvo ikozvino woona sei?
20 His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
Vabereki vake vakavapindura vakati: Tinoziva kuti uyu mwanakomana wedu, uye kuti wakaberekwa ari bofu;
21 but how he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he himself will tell you about it.
asi kuti ikozvino woona sei, hatizivi; kana ndiani wasvinudza meso ake, isu hatizivi; iye wayaruka, mubvunzei, iye pachake achazvitaurira.
22 So spake his parents, because they were afraid of the Jews: for the Jews had already come to a resolution, that if any person acknowledged him Messiah, he should be excluded the synagogue.
Vabereki vake vakareva izvi, nokuti vaitya VaJudha; nokuti VaJudha vakange vatotenderana kuti kana ani nani anobvuma kuti ndiye Kristu, abudiswe musinagoge.
23 Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
Naizvozvo vabereki vake vakati: Wayaruka, mubvunzei.
24 The second time therefore they called the man who had been blind, and said unto him, Give the glory to God: we know that this man is a sinner.
Naizvozvo vakadana rwechipiri uyo munhu wakange ari bofu, vakati kwaari: Ipa Mwari rumbidzo; isu tinoziva kuti munhu uyu mutadzi.
25 Then answered he and said, Whether this man be a sinner, I know not: one thing I do know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
Naizvozvo iye akapindura achiti: Kana ari mutadzi handizivi; chinhu chimwe chandinoziva, kuti ndaiva bofu, ikozvino ndoona.
26 Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eves?
Zvino vakati kwaarizve: Wakaitei kwauri? Wakasvinudza meso ako sei?
27 He answered them, I have already told you, and ye did not hearken: why do ye wish to hear it again? will ye also become his disciples?
Akavapindura, akati: Ndadokuudzai, asi hamuna kunzwa, munodirei kunzwa zvekare? Nemwi munoda kuva vadzidzi vake kanhi?
28 Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple, but we are the disciples of Moses.
Naizvozvo vakamutuka, vakati: Ndiwe mudzidzi wake; asi isu tiri vadzidzi vaMozisi.
29 We know that God spake to Moses: but we know nothing of this man, whence he is.
Isu tinoziva kuti Mwari wakataura kuna Mozisi; asi uyu hatizivi kwaanobva.
30 The man replied, and said to them, Now herein is something very surprising, that you know not whence he is, though he hath opened my eyes.
Munhu akapindura akati kwavari: Nokuti pachinhu ichi pane chinoshamisa, kuti imwi hamuzivi kwaanobva, asi wasvinudza meso angu.
31 Now we know that God doth not hearken to sinners: but if any man be a devout worshipper, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
Zvino tinoziva kuti Mwari haanzwi vatadzi; asi kana munhu ari mushumiri waMwari, achiita chido chake, uyu anomunzwa.
32 From the creation of the world hath it never been heard, that any man opened the eyes of one born blind. (aiōn g165)
Kubvira rinhi hakuna kumbonzwika kuti umwe wakasvinudza meso ewakaberekwa ari bofu. (aiōn g165)
33 If this man were not from God, he could not do any thing.
Dai uyu anga asingabvi kuna Mwari, haasaigona kuita chinhu.
34 They answered and said unto him, Thou wast wholly born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
Vakapindura vakati kwaari: Iwe zvachese wakaberekerwa muzvivi, zvino iwe wotidzidzisa here? Vakamudzingira kunze.
35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and finding him, said to him, Believest thou in the Son of God?
Jesu akanzwa kuti vamudzingira kunze; akati amuwana, akati kwaari: Iwe unotenda kuMwanakomana waMwari here?
36 The man answered and said, Who is he, Sir, that I might believe on him?
Iye akapindura akati: Ndiani, Ishe, kuti nditende kwaari?
37 Then said Jesus him, Thou hast even seen him, and he that is now talking with thee is the very person.
Jesu ndokuti kwaari: Newe wamuona, uye anotaura newe, ndiye.
38 Then he said, Lord, I believe: and worshipped him.
Zvino akati: Ishe ndinotenda; akamunamata.
39 And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they who see not may see; and they who see become blind.
Jesu ndokuti: Kutonga ndiko ini kwandakauira panyika ino, kuti vasingaoni vaone; nevanoona vave mapofu.
40 And some of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, Are we blind also?
Uye avo veVaFarisi vaiva naye vakanzwa zvinhu izvi, vakati kwaari: Nesu tiri mapofu here?
41 Jesus said to them, If ye were blind, ye should not have had sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin is permanent.
Jesu akati kwavari: Dai maiva mapofu, mungadai musina chivi. Asi ikozvino munoti: Tinoona; naizvozvo chivi chenyu chinogara.
