John 9
1 Now as he was passing along he saw a man, blind from birth.
Bí ó sì ti ń kọjá lọ, ó rí ọkùnrin kan tí ó fọ́jú láti ìgbà ìbí rẹ̀ wá.
2 "Rabbi," his disciples asked him, "who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"
Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ sì bi í léèrè, pé, “Rabbi, ta ní ó dẹ́ṣẹ̀, ọkùnrin yìí tàbí àwọn òbí rẹ̀, tí a fi bí i ní afọ́jú?”
3 "Neither he nor his parents sinned." replied Jesus; "it happened that the works of God might be made manifest in him.
Jesu dáhùn pé, “Kì í ṣe nítorí pé ọkùnrin yìí dẹ́ṣẹ̀, tàbí àwọn òbí rẹ̀: ṣùgbọ́n kí a ba à lè fi iṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run hàn lára rẹ̀.
4 "I must work the works of him that sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no man can work.
Èmi ní láti ṣe iṣẹ́ ẹni tí ó rán mi, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí ó bá ti jẹ́ ọ̀sán, òru ń bọ̀ wá nígbà tí ẹnìkan kì yóò lè ṣe iṣẹ́.
5 "While I am in the world, I am the Light of the world."
Níwọ́n ìgbà tí mo wà láààyè, èmi ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ ayé.”
6 When he had thus spoken he spat on the ground, and made clay with the spittle, and smeared the clay on the man’s eyes.
Nígbà tí ó ti wí bẹ́ẹ̀ tan, ó tutọ́ sílẹ̀, ó sì fi itọ́ náà ṣe amọ̀, ó sì fi amọ̀ náà ra ojú afọ́jú náà.
7 Then he said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (a word which means "sent"). So the man went and washed his eyes, and came back seeing.
Ó sì wí fún un pé, “Lọ wẹ̀ nínú adágún Siloamu!” (Ìtumọ̀ ọ̀rọ̀ yìí ni “rán”). Nítorí náà ó gba ọ̀nà rẹ̀ lọ, ó wẹ̀, ó sì dé, ó ń ríran.
8 Upon this the neighbors and those who used to know him by sight as a beggar, began asking, "Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?"
Ǹjẹ́ àwọn aládùúgbò àti àwọn tí ó rí i nígbà àtijọ́ pé alágbe ni ó jẹ́, wí pé, “Ẹni tí ó ti ń jókòó ṣagbe kọ́ yìí?”
9 Some said, "It is he." Others said, "No, but he looks like him." "I am the man," he said.
Àwọn kan wí pé òun ni. Àwọn ẹlòmíràn wí pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, ó jọ ọ́ ni.” Ṣùgbọ́n òun wí pé, “Èmi ni.”
10 So they asked him, "How then were your eyes opened?"
Nígbà náà ni wọ́n wí fún un pé, “Bá wo ni ojú rẹ ṣe là?”
11 He answered. "The man who is called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to Siloam and wash’; so I went and washed and received my sight."
Ó dáhùn ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ọkùnrin kan tí a ń pè ní Jesu ni ó ṣe amọ̀, ó sì fi kun ojú mí, ó sì wí fún mi pé, Lọ sí adágún Siloamu, kí o sì wẹ̀, èmi sì lọ, mo wẹ̀, mo sì ríran.”
12 "Where is he?" they asked. "I do not know," answered the man.
Wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Òun náà ha dà?” Ó sì wí pé, “Èmi kò mọ̀.”
13 Then they brought the man who had been blind to the Pharisees.
Wọ́n mú ẹni tí ojú rẹ̀ ti fọ́ rí wá sọ́dọ̀ àwọn Farisi.
14 Now it was on the Sabbath that Jesus had made clay and opened his eyes;
Ọjọ́ ìsinmi ni ọjọ́ náà nígbà tí Jesu ṣe amọ̀, tí ó sì là á lójú.
15 so the Pharisees again began to ask him questions about how he had regained his sight; and he said to them, "He put clay on my eyes, and I washed them, and now I see."
Nítorí náà àwọn Farisi pẹ̀lú tún bi í léèrè, bí ó ti ṣe ríran. Ọkùnrin náà fèsì, “Ó fi amọ̀ lé ojú mi, mo sì wẹ̀, báyìí mo sì ríran.”
16 Then some of the Pharisees began to say, "This man in not from God, because he does not keep the Sabbath." But others said, "How can a man who is a sinner perform such signs?"
Nítorí náà àwọn kan nínú àwọn Farisi wí pé, “Ọkùnrin yìí kò ti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run wá, nítorí tí kò pa ọjọ́ ìsinmi mọ́.” Àwọn ẹlòmíràn wí pé, “Ọkùnrin tí í ṣe ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ yóò ha ti ṣe lè ṣe irú iṣẹ́ àmì wọ̀nyí?” Ìyapa sì wà láàrín wọn.
17 So there was a difference of opinion among them. Accordingly they said to the blind man, "What have you to say about him, now that he has opened your eyes?" "He is a prophet," he answered.
Nítorí náà, wọ́n sì tún wí fún afọ́jú náà pé, “Kí ni ìwọ ní wí nípa rẹ̀, nítorí tí ó là ọ́ lójú?” Ó sì wí pé, “Wòlíì ní í ṣe.”
18 The Jews, however, did not believe about him that he was blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of the man whose sight had been restored,
Nítorí náà àwọn Júù kò gbàgbọ́ nípa rẹ̀ pé ojú rẹ̀ ti fọ́ rí, àti pé ó sì tún ríran, títí wọ́n fi pe àwọn òbí ẹni tí a ti là lójú.
19 and questioned them. "Is this your son," they said, "who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"
Wọ́n sì bi wọ́n léèrè wí pé, “Ǹjẹ́ èyí ni ọmọ yín, ẹni tí ẹ̀yin wí pé, a bí ní afọ́jú? Báwo ni ó ṣe ríran nísinsin yìí?”
20 Then in reply his parents said. "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
Àwọn òbí rẹ̀ dá wọn lóhùn wí pé, “Àwa mọ̀ pé ọmọ wa ni èyí, àti pé a bí i ní afọ́jú,
21 "but how he now sees we do not know, nor do we know who has opened his eyes. Ask him, himself. He is of age. He will speak for himself."
ṣùgbọ́n bí ó tí ṣe ń ríran nísinsin yìí àwa kò mọ̀, ẹni tí ó là á lójú, àwa kò mọ̀, ẹni tí ó ti dàgbà ni òun; ẹ bi í léèrè, yóò wí fúnra rẹ̀.”
22 This his parents said because they were afraid of the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if any one should confess that he was the Christ, he should be expelled from the synagogue.
Nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni àwọn òbí rẹ̀ sọ, nítorí tí wọ́n bẹ̀rù àwọn Júù: nítorí àwọn Júù ti fohùn ṣọ̀kan pé bí ẹnìkan bá jẹ́wọ́ pé Kristi ni, wọn ó yọ ọ́ kúrò nínú Sinagọgu.
23 It was because this that his parents said. "He is of age. Ask him, himself."
Nítorí èyí ni àwọn òbí rẹ̀ fi wí pé, “Ẹni tí ó dàgbà ni òun, ẹ bi í léèrè.”
24 So the Jews a second time summoned the man who had been blind, and said to him.
Nítorí náà, wọ́n pe ọkùnrin afọ́jú náà lẹ́ẹ̀kejì, wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Fi ògo fún Ọlọ́run, àwa mọ̀ pé ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ ni ọkùnrin yìí jẹ́.”
25 "Give glory to God! we know that this man is a sinner." Upon this the blind man answered. "I do not know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know, that once I was blind, and know I can see."
Nítorí náà, ó dáhùn ó sì wí pé, “Bí ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ ni, èmi kò mọ̀, Ohun kan ni mo mọ̀, pé mo tí fọ́jú rí, nísinsin yìí mo ríran.”
26 "What was it he did to you?" they asked him; "How did he open your eyes?"
Nítorí náà, wọ́n wí fún un pé, “Kí ni ó ṣe ọ́? Báwo ni ó ṣe là ọ́ lójú.”
27 He answered. "I have told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you wish to hear it again? Can it be that you, too, wish to become his disciples?"
Ó dá wọn lóhùn wí pé, “Èmi ti sọ fún yín tẹ́lẹ̀, ẹ̀yin kò sì gbọ́, nítorí kín ni ẹ̀yin ṣe ń fẹ́ tún gbọ́? Ẹ̀yin pẹ̀lú ń fẹ́ ṣe ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ bí?”
28 Then they stormed at him. "You are his disciple. We are Moses’ disciples.
Wọ́n sì fi í ṣe ẹlẹ́yà, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Ìwọ ni ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Mose ni àwa.
29 "We know that God spoke to Moses. But this fellow! We do not know where he comes from."
Àwa mọ̀ pé Ọlọ́run bá Mose sọ̀rọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n bí ó ṣe ti eléyìí, àwa kò mọ ibi tí ó ti wá.”
30 "This is truly astonishing," said the man in reply, "that you do not know where he is from, and yet he has opened my eyes.
Ọkùnrin náà dáhùn ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ohun ìyanu sá à ni èyí, pé ẹ̀yin kò mọ ibi tí ó tí wá, ṣùgbọ́n òun sá à ti là mí lójú.
31 "We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if any one is God- fearing and does his will, to such he listens.
Àwa mọ̀ pé Ọlọ́run kì í gbọ́ ti ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀; ṣùgbọ́n bí ẹnìkan bá ṣe olùfọkànsìn sí Ọlọ́run, tí ó bá sì ń ṣe ìfẹ́ rẹ̀, Òun ni ó ń gbọ́ tirẹ̀.
32 "Since the beginning of the world such a thing as opening the eyes of one who was born blind was never heard of. (aiōn g165)
Láti ìgbà tí ayé ti ṣẹ̀, a kò ì tí ì gbọ́ pé ẹnìkan la ojú ẹni tí a bí ní afọ́jú rí. (aiōn g165)
33 "If this man had not come of God he could have done nothing."
Ìbá ṣe pé ọkùnrin yìí kò ti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run wá, kì bá tí lè ṣe ohunkóhun.”
34 They answered, "You were wholly born in sins, and do you teach us?" Then they cast him out.
Sí èyí, wọ́n fèsì pé, “Láti ìbí ni o tì jíngírí nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀, ìwọ ha fẹ́ kọ́ wa bí?” Wọ́n sì tì í sóde.
35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said, "Do you believe in the Son of man?"
Jesu gbọ́ pé, wọ́n ti tì í sóde; nígbà tí ó sì rí i, ó wí pe, “Ìwọ gba Ọmọ Ọlọ́run, gbọ́ bí?”
36 "Who is he, Sir," he replied, "that I may believe on him."
Òun sì dáhùn wí pé, “Ta ni, Olúwa, kí èmi lè gbà á gbọ́?”
37 "You have already seen him," Jesus answered, "and it is he who now speaks to you."
Jesu wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ ti rí i, Òun náà sì ni ẹni tí ń bá ọ sọ̀rọ̀ yìí.”
38 "I do believe, Sir," said the man, and he prostrated himself at his feet. And Jesus said,
Ó sì wí pé, “Olúwa, mo gbàgbọ́,” ó sì wólẹ̀ fún un.
39 "For judgment am I come into the world, to make the sightless see, and to make the seeing blind."
Jesu sì wí pé, “Nítorí ìdájọ́ ni mo ṣe wá sí ayé yìí, kí àwọn tí kò ríran lè ríran; àti kí àwọn tí ó ríran lè di afọ́jú.”
40 Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this and asked, "We are not blind, are we?"
Nínú àwọn Farisi tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ gbọ́ nǹkan wọ̀nyí, wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Àwa pẹ̀lú fọ́jú bí?”
41 "If you were blind," Jesus answered them, "you would have no sin. But now you are declaring, ‘We see’; so your sin remains.
Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Ìbá ṣe pé ẹ̀yin fọ́jú, ẹ̀yin kì bá tí lẹ́sẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí ẹ̀yin wí pé, ‘Àwa ríran,’ nítorí náà ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín wà síbẹ̀.
