John 9
1 And as he was passing along, he saw a man who had been blind from his birth.
Jesuh lama a ceh k’um üng, a hmi law üngkhyüh a mik müki khyang mat a hmuh.
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
Axüisawe naw, “Saja aw, a mik müa hmiki hin ua mkhyenaka phäha ni? Amäta mkhyenaka phäh aw, a nupaa ani mkhyenaka phäh aw?” ti lü, ami kthäh u.
3 Jesus answered, Neither did this man sin, nor his parents; but that the works of God might be made manifest in him.
Jesuh naw, “Amäta mkhyenaka phäh am ni, a nupaa mkhyenaka phäha pi am ni. Ani üng Pamhnama johit khyange naw ami hmuh vaia phäha ni.
4 We must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day; the night is coming, when no one can work.
“A mhnüp ham üng na tüih lawkia khut mi pawh khai. U naw pi khut am a binak theia mthan pha law hlüki.
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
“Khawmdeka khana ka vea küt üng khawmdeka kvaia ka kyaki,” ti lü, a jah msang.
6 Having thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay with the spittle, and anointed his eyes with the clay,
Acukba a pyen käna, mdek üng a mci msawh lü, a mci am mdek mthaü lü acun am a mikmüa mik a jut.
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.
A mikmü üng, “Cit lü Silawng Tuili üng va hmaieia,” a ti. (Silawng ti cun “Tüih” tinak ni) Acunüng, cit lü va hmaiei se a mik vai law beki.
8 The neighbors therefore, and they who before had seen him as a beggar, said, Is not this he that sits and begs?
A impei locenge ja, ahlana täei se hmu khawikie naw, “Hin hin ngaw lü täei khawiki am niki aw?” ami ti.
9 Some said, This is he. Others said, No, but he is like him. He said, I am he.
Avang naw, “Acun ni” ami ti. Avang naw, “Acun ta am ni” a tängpüi ni” ami ti. Amät naw, “Kei acun ni” a ti.
10 They said therefore to him How then were thine eyes opened?
Amimi naw, “Na mik ihawkba vai beki?” ami ti.
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.
Ani naw, “Jesuh ami ti naw mdek mthaü lü, ka mik üng jut lü, ‘Silawng Tuilia va cit lü va hmaieia’ ti se, cit lü hmaiei ngü se ka mik vai law beki,” a ti.
12 And they said to him, Where is that man? He saith, I do not know.
“Ani hawia veki ni?” ti lü a mi kthäh üng, ani naw “Am ksing veng” a ti be.
13 They bring to the Pharisees him who had once been blind.
A mik mü khawikia khyang cun Phariseea veia ami cehpüi.
14 And the day on which Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes was the sabbath.
Jesuh naw mdek mthaü lü a mik a vaisak bea mhnüp cun Sabbath mhnüpa kyaki.
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.
Pharisee naw, a mik a vai law bea mawng kthäh u se, ani naw, “Lawk am ka mik na nawi se, hmaei lü, ka hmu law be theiki ni,” a ti.
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.
Pharise avang naw, “Acuna khyang naw Sabbath am a jeiha phäha, Pamhnama üngkhyüh lawki ta am ni khü vai,” ami ti. Avang naw, “Khyangka naw ihawkba hina mäih müncanksee jah pawh khawh khai aw?” ami ti. Phariseea ksunga ngtainak ve lawki.
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.
Acun käna, amikmü üng, “Na mik a vaisak bea phäha, nang naw ihawkba ani na ngaiki ni?” ti u lü, ami kthäh betü üng, “Ani cun Sahma ni” a ti.
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.
Judah ngvaie naw, a mik vai law bekia nu ja pa, am ami jah khü ham veia, amikmü khawiki vai law beki ni tia mawng am kcang na u.
19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? How then doth he now see?
A nu ja a paa üng, “Hin hin nami ca, amikmüa hmi lawki nami ti khawi am niki aw? Ihawkba atuh hmu law be theiki ni?” ti u lü, ami jah kthäh.
20 His parents, answered and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
A nu ja pa naw, “Hin kami ca ti kami ksingki, amikmüa hmi lawki ti pi kami ksing.
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.
Cunsepi, ihawkba atuh hmu law beki ti am kani ksingki, hmuhsak beki pi am ksing ve ning. Amät kthäh ua; khyang teh lawki; amäta mawng cun amät naw pyen se,” ti ni lü, ani jah msang.
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.
A nu ja pa naw Judah ngvaie ami jah kyüha phäha acukba ani pyena kyaki. Am acun ham üng pi, “Ani cun Mesijah ni” tiki naküt cun sinakok üngkhyüh ksät vaia ami mkhyäp thüpthüpa kyaki.
23 Therefore his parents said, He is of age; ask him.
Acunakyase, a nu ja pa naw, “Khyang teh lawki, amät kthäh ua” ani tia kyaki.
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.
Anghngihnaka amikmüa hmi lawki cun khü betü u lü, “Pamhnama veia akcang ka pyen khai tia sitih taa, nang ning mdaw beki cun khyangka ti kami ksingki ni,” ami ti.
25 He therefore answered, Whether he is a sinner, I know not; one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
Ani naw, “Khyangka a ni ja am a ni am ksing nawng. Mat ka ksing cun ahlana ka mik mü khawiki, tuh ka hmu law beki,” ti lü, a jah msang.
26 They said to him, What did he do to thee? How did he open thine eyes?
Amimi naw, “Na khana i ja a pawh? Na mik ihawkba ja a vaisak be?” ti lü, ami kthäh.
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?
Ani naw, “Cükta üng ka ning jah mtheh päng, am nami na ngai hlüki. Ise nami ngja hlü betükie ni? Nangmi pi axüisaw hea nami thawn hngaa nami yüki aw?” ti lü, a jah msang.
28 They reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are disciples of Moses.
Amimi naw ksekha na u lü, “Nang hin ania xüisawa na kyaki ni, keimi ta Mosia axüisaw he ni.
29 We know that God hath spoken to Moses; but as for this man, we know not whence he is.
“Pamhnam naw Mosi ngthuhei püiki ti kami ksingki, cunüngpi Jesuh hawia ka naw lawki ti am ksing u nawng,” ami ti.
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.
“Ani naw ka mik vaisak be kyaw sepi, ani hawia khyüh lawki ti am nami ksing hin müncankse ni.
31 We know that God heareth not sinners; but if any one is a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
“Pamhnam naw khyangkaa ngthu am ngai khawiki ti mi ksingki. Acunsepi, au naw pi Pamhnam mhläkphya na lü a ngjakhlü a pawh üng Pamhnam naw ngaih pet khawiki.
32 Since the world began, it was never heard that any one opened the eyes of a man born blind. (aiōn g165)
“Khawmdek a ngtüi üngkhyüh, a mikmüa hmi lawki vaisak be ve u, tia u naw am mi ngja khawi. (aiōn g165)
33 If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.
“Hin hin Pamhnam üngkhyüh lawki am a ni ta, i am pawh khawh,” ti lü, a jah msang.
34 They answered and said to him, Thou wast wholly born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
Amimi naw, “Na hmi law üng, mkhyenake am hmi law lü, na jah mthei lawki aw?” ti u lü, msangkie naw, Sinakok üngka naw ami ksät u.
35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and he found him, and said, Dost thou believe in the Son of man?
Ksätkie ti Jesuh naw ksing lü hmuki naw, “Khyanga Capa na jumki aw?” ti lü a kthäh.
36 He answered and said, And who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?
Ani naw, “Bawipa aw, ka jum law vaia, ani u ni na mtheha?” a ti.
37 Jesus said to him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.
Jesuh naw, “Ani na hmu päng ni, atuh ning ngthuheipüiki hin ani ni,” a ti.
38 And he said, I believe, Lord; and he prostrated himself before him.
Ani naw, “Bawipa aw, jum veng,” ti lü, Jesuh hjawkhahki.
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.
Jesuh naw, “Ngthumkhyah khaia hina khawmdek khana ka lawki, amikmüea mik vai be lü, a mik kvaiea mik a münak vaia ka lawki ni,” a ti.
40 Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this, and said to him, Are we also blind?
Ahlawnga vekia Pharisee naw, acun ngja u lü, “Keimi pi kami mik mü hngaki aw?” ti lü, ami kthäh u.
41 Jesus said to them, If ye were blind, ye would not have sin; but now ye say, We see. Your sin remaineth.
Jesuh naw, “Nami mik a mü üng mkhyenak am ta uki. Acunsepi, atuh ‘Kami mik vaiki’ nami tia phäh nami mkhyekatki” a ti.
