< John 9 >
1 And as he passed by, 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 And his disciples asked him, "Rabbi, 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 Jesus answered, "Neither did this man sin, nor his parents; but, that the works of God might be revealed 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 We must work the works of him who sent me, while it is day. The night is coming, when no one 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 said this, he spat on the ground, made mud with the saliva, anointed the blind man's eyes with the mud,
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 and said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which means "Sent"). So he went away, washed, 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 The neighbors therefore, and those who saw that he was a beggar before, said, "Is this not the one 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, "He looks like him." He said, "I am he."
Àwọn kan wí pé òun ni. Àwọn ẹlòmíràn wí pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, ó jọ ọ́ ni.” Ṣùgbọ́n òun wí pé, “Èmi ni.”
10 They therefore were asking him, "How were your eyes opened?"
Nígbà náà ni wọ́n wí fún un pé, “Bá wo ni ojú rẹ ṣe là?”
11 He answered, "A man called Jesus made mud, anointed my eyes, and said to me, 'Go to Siloam, and wash.' So I went away and washed, and I received 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 Then they asked him, "Where is he?" He said, "I do not know."
Wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Òun náà ha dà?” Ó sì wí pé, “Èmi kò mọ̀.”
13 They brought him who had been blind to the Pharisees.
Wọ́n mú ẹni tí ojú rẹ̀ ti fọ́ rí wá sọ́dọ̀ àwọn Farisi.
14 Now it was a Sabbath on the day when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.
Ọjọ́ ìsinmi ni ọjọ́ náà nígbà tí Jesu ṣe amọ̀, tí ó sì là á lójú.
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."
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 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?" There was division among them.
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 Therefore they asked the blind man again, "What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."
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 Jewish leaders 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,
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 asked them, "Is this your son, 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 His parents answered them, "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; or who opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age. Ask him. 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 His parents said these things because they feared the Jewish leaders; for the Jewish leaders had already agreed that if anyone would confess him as the Christ, he would be put out of 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 Therefore his parents said, "He is of age. Ask him."
Nítorí èyí ni àwọn òbí rẹ̀ fi wí pé, “Ẹni tí ó dàgbà ni òun, ẹ bi í léèrè.”
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."
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 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."
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 They said to him, "What did he do to you? 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 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?"
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 They insulted him and said, "You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
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 has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, 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 The man answered them, "How amazing. You do not know where he comes from, yet he 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 anyone is a worshipper of God, and does his will, he listens to him.
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 world began it has never been heard of that anyone opened the eyes of someone born blind. (aiōn )
Láti ìgbà tí ayé ti ṣẹ̀, a kò ì tí ì gbọ́ pé ẹnìkan la ojú ẹni tí a bí ní afọ́jú rí. (aiōn )
33 If this man were not from God, he could do nothing."
Ìbá ṣe pé ọkùnrin yìí kò ti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run wá, kì bá tí lè ṣe ohunkóhun.”
34 They answered him, "You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?" They threw 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 thrown him out, and finding 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 He answered, "Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?"
Òun sì dáhùn wí pé, “Ta ni, Olúwa, kí èmi lè gbà á gbọ́?”
37 Jesus said to him, "You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you."
Jesu wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ ti rí i, Òun náà sì ni ẹni tí ń bá ọ sọ̀rọ̀ yìí.”
38 He said, "Lord, I believe." and he worshiped him.
Ó sì wí pé, “Olúwa, mo gbàgbọ́,” ó sì wólẹ̀ fún un.
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."
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 Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, "Are we also blind?"
Nínú àwọn Farisi tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ gbọ́ nǹkan wọ̀nyí, wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Àwa pẹ̀lú fọ́jú bí?”
41 Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sin; but since you say, 'We see,' 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.
