John 9
1 And as he was passing along, he saw a man who had been blind from his birth.
Iye akuyendabe, anaona munthu wosaona chibadwire.
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
Ophunzira ake anamufunsa Iye kuti, “Rabi anachimwa ndani, munthuyu kapena makolo ake, kuti iye abadwe wosaona?”
3 Jesus answered, Neither did this man sin, nor his parents; but that the works of God might be made manifest in him.
Yesu anayankha kuti, “Sikuti iyeyu anachimwa kapena makolo ake, koma izi zinachitika kuti Mulungu aonetse ntchito zake mwa iyeyu.
4 We must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day; the night is coming, when no one can work.
Ife tiyenera kugwira ntchito za Iye amene anandituma kukanali masana. Usiku ukubwera, pamene wina aliyense sadzagwira ntchito.
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
Pamene Ine ndili mʼdziko lapansi, Ine ndine kuwunika kwa dziko lapansi.”
6 Having thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay with the spittle, and anointed his eyes with the clay,
Atanena izi, Iye anathira malovu pansi ndi kukanda dothi, napaka matopewo mʼmaso a munthuyo.
7 and said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam; (which is, when translated, Sent.) He went away therefore, and washed and came seeing.
Yesu anamuwuza iye kuti, “Pita kasambe mʼdziwe la Siloamu” (mawu awa akutanthauza Wotumidwa). Choncho munthuyo anapita ndi kukasamba ndipo anabwerako akupenya.
8 The neighbors therefore, and they who before had seen him as a beggar, said, Is not this he that sits and begs?
Anzake ndi iwo amene anamuona iye poyamba akupempha anafunsa kuti, “Kodi uyu si munthu amene amapemphapempha uja?”
9 Some said, This is he. Others said, No, but he is like him. He said, I am he.
Ena ananena kuti anali yemweyo. Ena anati, “Ayi, sakuoneka ngati yemweyo.” Koma iye mwini ananenetsa kuti, “Munthuyo ndine.”
10 They said therefore to him How then were thine eyes opened?
Iwo anafunsitsa kuti, “Kodi nanga maso ako anatsekuka bwanji?”
11 He answered, The man who is called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes, and said to me, Go to Siloam, and wash. I went therefore and washed, and received sight.
Iye anayankha kuti, “Munthu wina wotchedwa Yesu anakanda dothi ndi kupaka mʼmaso anga. Iye anandiwuza kuti ndipite ku Siloamu ndi kukasamba. Choncho ndinapita kukasamba, ndipo ndikuona.”
12 And they said to him, Where is that man? He saith, I do not know.
Iwo anamufunsa iye kuti, “Ali kuti munthu ameneyu?” Iye anati, “Ine sindikudziwa.”
13 They bring to the Pharisees him who had once been blind.
Iwo anabwera naye munthu amene poyamba anali wosaona kwa Afarisi.
14 And the day on which Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes was the sabbath.
Tsono linali la Sabata tsiku limene Yesu anakanda dothi ndi kutsekula maso a munthuyu.
15 Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. He said to them, He put clay on my eyes, and I washed them, and I see.
Choncho Afarisi anamufunsanso iye momwe analandirira kuona kwake. Munthuyo anayankha kuti, “Iye anapaka matope mʼmaso anga, ndipo ine ndinakasamba, ndipo ndikuona.”
16 Therefore some of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, because he keepeth not the sabbath. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such signs. And there was a division among them.
Ena a Afarisi anati, “Munthu uyu siwochokera kwa Mulungu, pakuti sasunga Sabata.” Koma enanso anafunsa kuti, “Kodi munthu wochimwa angachite bwanji zizindikiro zodabwitsa ngati izi?” Choncho iwo anagawanika.
17 They say therefore to the blind man again, What dost thou say of him for having opened thine eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.
Pomaliza iwo anatembenukiranso kwa munthu amene anali wosaona uja nati, “Kodi iwe unena chiyani za Iye poti ndi maso ako amene watsekula?” Munthuyo anayankha kuti, “Iye ndi mneneri.”
18 The Jews therefore did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.
Ayuda sanakhulupirirebe kuti iye anali wosaona ndi kuti anayamba kuona kufikira atayitana makolo ake.
19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? How then doth he now see?
Iwo anafunsa kuti, “Kodi uyu ndi mwana wanu? Kodi iyeyu ndi amene mukunena kuti anabadwa wosaona? Nanga zikutheka bwanji kuti akuona?”
20 His parents, answered and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
Makolo anayankha kuti, “Ife tikudziwa kuti ndi mwana wathu, ndipo tikudziwa kuti anabadwa wosaona.
21 but by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who opened his eyes, we know not; ask him, he is of age; he will speak for himself.
Koma sitidziwa zimene zachitika kuti tsopano azipenya. Amenenso wamupenyetsa sitikumudziwa. Mufunseni ndi wamkulu; iye adziyankhira yekha.”
22 This his parents said, because they feared the Jews. For the Jews had already agreed, that if any one should acknowledge him as the Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
Makolo ake ananena izi chifukwa amaopa Ayuda, popeza Ayuda anatsimikiza kale kuti aliyense amene adzamuvomereza Yesu kuti anali Khristu adzatulutsidwa mʼsunagoge.
23 Therefore his parents said, He is of age; ask him.
Ichi ndi chifukwa chake makolo ake anati, “Mufunseni iye ndi wamkulu.”
24 They therefore called a second time the man that had been blind, and said to him, Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner.
Iwo anamuyitanitsa kachiwiri munthu amene anali wosaonayo. Iwo anati, “Lemekeza Mulungu. Ife tikudziwa kuti munthu uyu ndi wochimwa.”
25 He therefore answered, Whether he is a sinner, I know not; one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
Iye anayankha kuti, “Zakuti Iye ndi wochimwa kapena ayi, ine sindikudziwa. Ine ndikudziwa chinthu chimodzi. Ndinali wosaona koma tsopano ndikuona!”
26 They said to him, What did he do to thee? How did he open thine eyes?
Kenaka anamufunsa kuti, “Kodi Iye anachita chiyani kwa iwe? Iye anatsekula motani maso ako?”
27 He answered them, I have already told you, and ye did not hear; why would ye hear it again? Are ye also inclined to become his disciples?
Iye anayankha kuti, “Ine ndakuwuzani kale ndipo inu simunamvetsetse. Chifukwa chiyani mukufuna mumvenso? Mukufuna kuti inu mukhale ophunzira akenso?”
28 They reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are disciples of Moses.
Pamenepo anamunyoza ndipo anati, “Iwe ndiye ophunzira wa munthuyu! Ife ndife ophunzira a Mose!
29 We know that God hath spoken to Moses; but as for this man, we know not whence he is.
Ife tikudziwa kuti Mulungu anayankhula kwa Mose, koma za munthu uyu, ife sitikudziwa ngakhale kumene akuchokera.”
30 The man answered and said to them, Why, herein is a marvelous thing, that ye know not whence he is, and yet he opened my eyes.
Munthuyo anayankha kuti, “Tsopano izi ndi zodabwitsa! Inu simukudziwa kumene akuchokera, komabe iye watsekula maso anga.
31 We know that God heareth not sinners; but if any one is a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
Ife tikudziwa kuti Mulungu samvera wochimwa. Iye amamvera munthu woopa Mulungu amene amachita chifuniro chake.
32 Since the world began, it was never heard that any one opened the eyes of a man born blind. (aiōn g165)
Palibe amene anamvapo za kutsekula maso a munthu wobadwa wosaona. (aiōn g165)
33 If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.
Ngati munthu uyu akanakhala wosachokera kwa Mulungu, palibe chimene Iye akanachita.”
34 They answered and said to him, Thou wast wholly born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
Pamenepo anayankha kuti, “Iwe unabadwa mu uchimo kotheratu; bwanji ukuyesa kutiphunzitsa ife!” Ndipo anamutulutsa kunja.
35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and he found him, and said, Dost thou believe in the Son of man?
Yesu anamva kuti anamutulutsa kunja ndipo pamene anamupeza anati, “Kodi ukukhulupirira Mwana wa Munthu?”
36 He answered and said, And who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?
Munthuyo anafunsa kuti, “Kodi, Ambuye, ameneyo ndi ndani? Ndiwuzeni kuti ndimukhulupirire Iye?”
37 Jesus said to him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.
Yesu anati, “Iwe wamuona tsopano. Zoonadi ndiye amene akuyankhula nawe.”
38 And he said, I believe, Lord; and he prostrated himself before him.
Pamenepo munthuyo anati, “Ambuye, ndikukhulupirira,” ndipo anamulambira Iye.
39 And Jesus said, For judgment came I into this world; that they who see not might see, and that they who see might become blind.
Yesu anati, “Ndinabwera pansi pano kudzaweruza kuti osaona aone ndi openya asaone.”
40 Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this, and said to him, Are we also blind?
Afarisi ena amene anali pafupi naye anamva akunena izi ndipo anafunsa kuti, “Chiyani? Kodi ndife osaonanso?”
41 Jesus said to them, If ye were blind, ye would not have sin; but now ye say, We see. Your sin remaineth.
Yesu anati, “Mukanakhala osaona, simukanachimwa; koma tsopano popeza mukuti mumaona, ndinu ochimwabe.”
