John 9
1 And passing by He saw a man blind from birth.
tataḥ paraṁ yīśurgacchan mārgamadhye janmāndhaṁ naram apaśyat|
2 And asked Him the disciples of Him saying; Rabbi, who sinned, this [man] or the parents of him, that blind he may be born?
tataḥ śiṣyāstam apṛcchan he guro naroyaṁ svapāpena vā svapitrāḥ pāpenāndho'jāyata?
3 Answered (*k*) Jesus; Neither this [man] sinned nor [sinned] the parents of him, but [it was] that may be displayed the works of God in him.
tataḥ sa pratyuditavān etasya vāsya pitroḥ pāpād etādṛśobhūda iti nahi kintvanena yatheśvarasya karmma prakāśyate taddhetoreva|
4 (Us *N(K)O*) it behooves to work the works of the [One who] having sent Me while day it is; is coming night, when no [one] is able to work.
dine tiṣṭhati matprerayituḥ karmma mayā karttavyaṁ yadā kimapi karmma na kriyate tādṛśī niśāgacchati|
5 While in the world I may be, [the] light I am of the world.
ahaṁ yāvatkālaṁ jagati tiṣṭhāmi tāvatkālaṁ jagato jyotiḥsvarūposmi|
6 These things having said He spat on [the] ground and He made clay of the spittle and (he rubbed *NK(O)*) (on him *no*) the clay to the eyes (of the blind *k*)
ityukttā bhūmau niṣṭhīvaṁ nikṣipya tena paṅkaṁ kṛtavān
7 And He said to him; do go do wash yourself in the pool of Siloam which means Sent. He went therefore and washed and came [back] seeing.
paścāt tatpaṅkena tasyāndhasya netre pralipya tamityādiśat gatvā śilohe 'rthāt preritanāmni sarasi snāhi| tatondho gatvā tatrāsnāt tataḥ prannacakṣu rbhūtvā vyāghuṭyāgāt|
8 The therefore neighbours and those having seen him before that (a beggar *N(K)O*) he was, were saying; Surely this is the [one] sitting and begging?
aparañca samīpavāsino lokā ye ca taṁ pūrvvamandham apaśyan te bakttum ārabhanta yondhaloko vartmanyupaviśyābhikṣata sa evāyaṁ janaḥ kiṁ na bhavati?
9 Some were saying that He it is, but others were saying; (No, *no*) (but *N(k)O*) (that *k*) like as him he is. He was saying that I myself am [he].
kecidavadan sa eva kecidavocan tādṛśo bhavati kintu sa svayamabravīt sa evāhaṁ bhavāmi|
10 They were saying therefore to him; How (then *NO*) were opened of you the eyes?
ataeva te 'pṛcchan tvaṁ kathaṁ dṛṣṭiṁ pāptavān?
11 Answered He (and said: *k*) (The *no*) man (who *no*) is being named Jesus clay made and He anointed my eyes and He said to me (that *no*) do go to (pool *k*) (*N(k)O*) Siloam and do wash. yourself Having gone (therefore *N(K)O*) and having washed I received sight.
tataḥ sovadad yīśanāmaka eko jano mama nayane paṅkena pralipya ityājñāpayat śilohakāsāraṁ gatvā tatra snāhi| tatastatra gatvā mayi snāte dṛṣṭimahaṁ labdhavān|
12 (And *N(k)O*) they said to him; Where is He? He says; Not I know.
tadā te 'vadan sa pumān kutra? tenokttaṁ nāhaṁ jānāmi|
13 They bring him to the Pharisees who once [was] blind;
aparaṁ tasmin pūrvvāndhe jane phirūśināṁ nikaṭam ānīte sati phirūśinopi tamapṛcchan kathaṁ dṛṣṭiṁ prāptosi?
14 Was now Sabbath (in which day *NO*) (when *k*) the clay made Jesus and opened of him the eyes.
tataḥ sa kathitavān sa paṅkena mama netre 'limpat paścād snātvā dṛṣṭimalabhe|
15 Again therefore were asking him also the Pharisees how he had received sight. And he said to them; Clay He put on my eyes and I washed and I see.
kintu yīśu rviśrāmavāre karddamaṁ kṛtvā tasya nayane prasanne'karod itikāraṇāt katipayaphirūśino'vadan
16 Were saying therefore of the Pharisees some; Not is this from (*k*) God the man for the Sabbath not He does keep. Others (however *no*) were saying; How is able a man sinful such signs to do? And division there was among them.
sa pumān īśvarānna yataḥ sa viśrāmavāraṁ na manyate| tatonye kecit pratyavadan pāpī pumān kim etādṛśam āścaryyaṁ karmma karttuṁ śaknoti?
17 They say (therefore *NO*) to the blind [man] again; What you yourself say concerning Him for He opened of you the eyes? And he said that A prophet He is.
itthaṁ teṣāṁ parasparaṁ bhinnavākyatvam abhavat| paścāt te punarapi taṁ pūrvvāndhaṁ mānuṣam aprākṣuḥ yo janastava cakṣuṣī prasanne kṛtavān tasmin tvaṁ kiṁ vadasi? sa ukttavān sa bhaviśadvādī|
18 Not did believe then the Jews concerning him that he was being blind and received sight until when they called the parents of him who having received sight,
sa dṛṣṭim āptavān iti yihūdīyāstasya dṛṣṭiṁ prāptasya janasya pitro rmukhād aśrutvā na pratyayan|
19 And they asked them saying; This is the son of you of whom you yourselves say that blind he was born? How then does he see presently
ataeva te tāvapṛcchan yuvayo ryaṁ putraṁ janmāndhaṁ vadathaḥ sa kimayaṁ? tarhīdānīṁ kathaṁ draṣṭuṁ śaknoti?
20 Answered (therefore *N(k)*) (to them *k*) the parents of him and said; We know that this is the son of us and that blind he was born;
tatastasya pitarau pratyavocatām ayam āvayoḥ putra ā janerandhaśca tadapyāvāṁ jānīvaḥ
21 How however presently he sees not we know, or who opened of him the eyes we ourselves not know; him do ask, (he himself *k*) [of] age is; He himself Concerning himself he will speak.
kintvadhunā kathaṁ dṛṣṭiṁ prāptavān tadāvāṁ n jānīvaḥ kosya cakṣuṣī prasanne kṛtavān tadapi na jānīva eṣa vayaḥprāpta enaṁ pṛcchata svakathāṁ svayaṁ vakṣyati|
22 These things said the parents of Him because they were afraid of the Jews; already for had agreed together the Jews that if anyone Him shall confess Christ, expelled from the synagogue he shall be.
yihūdīyānāṁ bhayāt tasya pitarau vākyamidam avadatāṁ yataḥ kopi manuṣyo yadi yīśum abhiṣiktaṁ vadati tarhi sa bhajanagṛhād dūrīkāriṣyate yihūdīyā iti mantraṇām akurvvan
23 Because of this the parents of him said that Age he has, him (do question. *N(k)O*)
atastasya pitarau vyāharatām eṣa vayaḥprāpta enaṁ pṛcchata|
24 They called therefore the man out a second time who were blind and they said to him; do give glory to God! We ourselves know that this man a sinner is.
tadā te punaśca taṁ pūrvvāndham āhūya vyāharan īśvarasya guṇān vada eṣa manuṣyaḥ pāpīti vayaṁ jānīmaḥ|
25 Answered then he (and said: *k*) Whether a sinner He is not I know; One [thing] I do know that blind being now I see.
tadā sa ukttavān sa pāpī na veti nāhaṁ jāne pūrvāmandha āsamaham adhunā paśyāmīti mātraṁ jānāmi|
26 They said (therefore *N(k)O*) to him (again: *k*) What did He to you? How opened He of you the eyes?
te punarapṛcchan sa tvāṁ prati kimakarot? kathaṁ netre prasanne 'karot?
27 He answered them; I told you already, and not you did listen. Why again do you wish to hear? Surely not also you yourselves do wish His disciples to become?
tataḥ sovādīd ekakṛtvokathayaṁ yūyaṁ na śṛṇutha tarhi kutaḥ punaḥ śrotum icchatha? yūyamapi kiṁ tasya śiṣyā bhavitum icchatha?
28 (And *n(o)*) ([they] now *o*) railed at (therefore *K*) him and said; You yourself a disciple are of that One, we ourselves however of Moses are disciples.
tadā te taṁ tiraskṛtya vyāharan tvaṁ tasya śiṣyo vayaṁ mūsāḥ śiṣyāḥ|
29 We ourselves know that to Moses has spoken God, this [man] however not we know from where is.
mūsāvaktreṇeśvaro jagāda tajjānīmaḥ kintveṣa kutratyaloka iti na jānīmaḥ|
30 Answered the man and said to them; In this for (*no*) an amazing thing is that you yourselves not know from where He is, and yet (He opened *N(k)O*) my eyes.
sovadad eṣa mama locane prasanne 'karot tathāpi kutratyaloka iti yūyaṁ na jānītha etad āścaryyaṁ bhavati|
31 We know (now *k*) that to sinners God not does listen, but if anyone God-fearing shall be and the will of Him shall do, to him He listens.
īśvaraḥ pāpināṁ kathāṁ na śṛṇoti kintu yo janastasmin bhaktiṁ kṛtvā tadiṣṭakriyāṁ karoti tasyaiva kathāṁ śṛṇoti etad vayaṁ jānīmaḥ|
32 Out of the age never it has been heard that opened anyone [the] eyes of [one] blind born. (aiōn g165)
kopi manuṣyo janmāndhāya cakṣuṣī adadāt jagadārambhād etādṛśīṁ kathāṁ kopi kadāpi nāśṛṇot| (aiōn g165)
33 only unless were this [man] from God, not He was able to do no [thing].
asmād eṣa manuṣyo yadīśvarānnājāyata tarhi kiñcidapīdṛśaṁ karmma karttuṁ nāśaknot|
34 They answered and they said to him; In sins you yourself were born entirely and you yourself teach us? And they cast him out.
te vyāharan tvaṁ pāpād ajāyathāḥ kimasmān tvaṁ śikṣayasi? paścātte taṁ bahirakurvvan|
35 Heard (*ko*) Jesus that they had cast him out, and having found him He said (to him: *ko*) You yourself believe in the Son (of Man? *N(K)O*)
tadanantaraṁ yihūdīyaiḥ sa bahirakriyata yīśuriti vārttāṁ śrutvā taṁ sākṣāt prāpya pṛṣṭavān īśvarasya putre tvaṁ viśvasiṣi?
36 Answered he and said; (And *no*) who is He, lord, that I may believe in Him?
tadā sa pratyavocat he prabho sa ko yat tasminnahaṁ viśvasimi?
37 Said (now *k*) to him Jesus; Both You have seen Him, and the [One] speaking with you He is.
tato yīśuḥ kathitavān tvaṁ taṁ dṛṣṭavān tvayā sākaṁ yaḥ kathaṁ kathayati saeva saḥ|
38 And he was saying; I believe, Lord, And he worshiped Him.
tadā he prabho viśvasimītyuktvā sa taṁ praṇāmat|
39 And said Jesus; For judgment I myself into world this came, that those not seeing may see and those seeing blind may become.
paścād yīśuḥ kathitavān nayanahīnā nayanāni prāpnuvanti nayanavantaścāndhā bhavantītyabhiprāyeṇa jagadāham āgaccham|
40 (and *k*) Heard from the Pharisees these things who with Him being and they said to Him; Surely not also we ourselves blind are?
etat śrutvā nikaṭasthāḥ katipayāḥ phirūśino vyāharan vayamapi kimandhāḥ?
41 Said to them Jesus; If blind you were, not then would you have sin. since however you say that We see, the (therefore *K*) sin of you remains.
tadā yīśuravādīd yadyandhā abhavata tarhi pāpāni nātiṣṭhan kintu paśyāmīti vākyavadanād yuṣmākaṁ pāpāni tiṣṭhanti|
