< John 9 >

1 And passing by He saw a man blind from birth.
Pea ʻi he ʻalu ange ʻa [Sisu], ne mamata ia ki ha tangata naʻe fanauʻi ko e kui.
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?
Pea fehuʻi ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Lāpai, ko hai naʻe fai angahala, ʻae tangata ni, pe ko ʻene mātuʻa, naʻe fanauʻi kui ai ia?”
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.
Pea talaange ʻe Sisu, “Naʻe ʻikai fai angahala ʻae tangata ni, pe ko ʻene mātuʻa: ka ko e meʻa ke fakahā ʻiate ia ʻae ngaahi ngāue ʻae ʻOtua.
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.
‌ʻOku totonu ke u fai ʻae ngaahi ngāue ʻo ia naʻa ne fekau au, lolotonga ʻene kei ʻaho: ʻoku haʻu ʻae pō, ʻoku ʻikai faʻa ngāue ai ha tokotaha.”
5 While in the world I may be, [the] light I am of the world.
‌ʻI heʻeku kei ʻi māmani ko e maama au ʻo māmani.
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*)
Hili ʻene lea pehē, naʻe ʻaʻanu ia ki he kelekele, ʻo ne ngaohi ʻaki ʻae ʻaʻanu ʻae ʻumea, ʻo ne pani ʻaki ʻae ʻumea ʻae mata ʻoe tangata kui,
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.
‌ʻO ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻAlu, ʻo kaukau ʻi he ano vai ko Seiloami,” (ʻa ia ko hono ʻuhinga, “Ko e fekau.”) Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ia, ʻo kaukau, pea haʻu kuo ʻā.
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?
Ko ia ko e kaungāʻapi, pea mo kinautolu naʻe mamata muʻa kiate ia ʻi heʻene kui, naʻa nau pehē, “ʻIkai ko eni ia naʻe nofo ʻo kole?”
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].
Pea tala ʻe he niʻihi, “Ko eni ia:” pea [lea ]ʻae niʻihi, “ʻOku hangē ko ia:” ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko au ia.”
10 They were saying therefore to him; How (then *NO*) were opened of you the eyes?
“Ko ia naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, naʻe fakaʻā fēfeeʻi ho mata?”
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.
Pea talaange ʻe ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e tangata ʻoku ui ko Sisu naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ʻumea, ʻo ne pani hoku mata, pea ne pehē kiate au, ‘ʻAlu ki he ano vai ko Seiloami, ʻo kaukau:’ pea naʻaku ʻalu, ʻo kaukau, pea u ʻā ai.”
12 (And *N(k)O*) they said to him; Where is He? He says; Not I know.
Pea nau pehē ai kiate ia, “Kofaʻā ia?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻiloa.”
13 They bring him to the Pharisees who once [was] blind;
Naʻa nau ʻomi ki he kau Fālesi ʻaia naʻe kui.
14 Was now Sabbath (in which day *NO*) (when *k*) the clay made Jesus and opened of him the eyes.
Pea ko e ʻaho Sāpate ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ai ʻe Sisu ʻae ʻumea, ʻo ne fakaʻā hono mata.
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.
Pea fehuʻi foki ʻae kau Fālesi kiate ia, pe naʻe fēfē hono fakaʻā. Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, ‘Naʻe ʻai ʻe ia ʻae ʻumea ki hoku mata, pea u kaukau, pea ʻoku ou ʻā.”
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.
Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe he niʻihi ʻoe kau Fālesi, “ʻOku ʻikai mei he ʻOtua ʻae tangata ni, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te ne tokanga ki he ʻaho Sāpate.” Pea pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “ʻE faʻa fai fēfeeʻi ʻae ngaahi mana pehē ʻe ha angahala? Pea naʻa nau fakakikihi ai.”
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.
Pea naʻa nau toe fehuʻi ki he tangata kui, “Ko e hā hoʻo lau kiate ia, ʻi heʻene fakaʻā ho mata?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e palōfita ia.”
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,
Ka naʻe ʻikai tui ʻae kakai Siu naʻe kui ia, pea kuo ʻā, kaeʻoua ke nau ui ʻae mātuʻa ʻo ia kuo fakaʻā.
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
Pea nau fehuʻi kiate kinaua, ʻo pehē, “Ko hoʻomo tama eni, ʻoku mo lau naʻe fanauʻi kui? Pea ʻoku ʻa fēfē eni?”
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;
Pea leaange ʻene mātuʻa kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ma ʻilo ko ʻema tama eni, pea naʻe fanauʻi ʻoku kui:
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.
Ka ko e meʻa ko ia ʻoku ʻā ai ni ia, ʻoku ʻikai te ma ʻilo; pea ʻoku ʻikai te ma ʻilo pe ko hai kuo fakaʻā hono mata; ka ʻoku lahi ia: fehuʻi ki ai: ke lea ia kiate ia.”
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.
Naʻe pehē ʻae lea ʻa ʻene mātuʻa, he naʻa na manavahē ki he kakai Siu: he kuo alea pau ʻae kakai Siu, kapau ʻe ai ha tokotaha te ne fakahā ko e Kalaisi ia, ʻe kapusi ia mei he falelotu.
23 Because of this the parents of him said that Age he has, him (do question. *N(k)O*)
Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe heʻene mātuʻa, “ʻOku lahi ia; fehuʻi ki ai.”
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.
Pea naʻa nau toe ui ʻae tangata naʻe kui, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “Tuku ki he ʻOtua ʻae fakamālō: ʻoku mau ʻilo ko e angahala ʻae tangata ni.”
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.
Pea leaange ʻe ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko ha angahala ia pe ʻikai, ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo: ko e meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku ou ʻilo, naʻaku kui, ka ko eni ʻoku ou ʻā.”
26 They said (therefore *N(k)O*) to him (again: *k*) What did He to you? How opened He of you the eyes?
Pea toe fehuʻi ai ʻakinautolu kiate ia, “Ko e hā naʻa ne fai kiate koe? Naʻe fēfeeʻi ʻene fakaʻā ho mata?”
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?
Pea leaange ia kiate kinautolu, “Kuo ʻosi ʻeku tala kiate kimoutolu, pea ʻoku ʻikai te mou ongoʻi: ko e hā ʻoku mou toe fie fanongo ai? Te mou ului ko ʻene kau ākonga foki?”
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.
Pea nau taukaea ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko ʻene ākonga ʻa koe; ka ko e kau ākonga ʻa Mōsese ʻakimautolu.
29 We ourselves know that to Moses has spoken God, this [man] however not we know from where is.
‌ʻOku mau ʻilo naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua kia Mōsese: ka ko e tangata ni, ʻoku ʻikai te mau ʻilo pe ʻoku mei fē ia.”
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.
Pea leaange ʻae tangata, ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ta ko e meʻa fakamanavahē eni, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻilo pe ʻoku haʻu ia mei fē, ka kuo ne fakaʻā hoku mata.
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.
‌ʻOku tau ʻilo ʻoku ʻikai ongoʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae kau angahala: ka ʻoka lotu ha tangata ki he ʻOtua, pea fai hono finangalo, ʻoku ne ongoʻi ia.
32 Out of the age never it has been heard that opened anyone [the] eyes of [one] blind born. (aiōn g165)
Talu mei he kamataʻanga ʻo māmani ʻoku teʻeki fanongo naʻe ai ha tangata kuo fakaʻā ʻae mata ʻo ha tokotaha kuo fanauʻi kui. (aiōn g165)
33 only unless were this [man] from God, not He was able to do no [thing].
Ka ne ʻikai ʻi he ʻOtua ʻae tangata ni, ʻe ʻikai faʻa fai ʻe ia ha meʻa.”
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.
Pea leaange ʻakinautolu, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “Naʻa ke tupu tofu pe ʻi he ngaahi angahala, pea ʻoku ke akoʻi ʻakimautolu?” Pea naʻa nau kapusi ia kituʻa.
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*)
Pea ongoʻi ʻe Sisu kuo nau kapusi ia kituʻa: pea ne toki ʻilo ia, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ke tui ki he ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua?”
36 Answered he and said; (And *no*) who is He, lord, that I may believe in Him?
Pea leaange ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻEiki, ko hai ia, koeʻuhi ke u tui kiate ia?”
37 Said (now *k*) to him Jesus; Both You have seen Him, and the [One] speaking with you He is.
Pea tala ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Kuo ke mamata kiate ia, pea ko ia ia ʻoku talanoa kiate koe.”
38 And he was saying; I believe, Lord, And he worshiped Him.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻEiki, ʻoku ou tui. Pea naʻa ne hū kiate ia.
39 And said Jesus; For judgment I myself into world this came, that those not seeing may see and those seeing blind may become.
Pea lea ʻa Sisu, “Ko e meʻa ʻi he fakamaau kuo u haʻu ki māmani, koeʻuhi ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻikai mamata ke nau mamata; pea ke kui ʻakinautolu ʻoku mamata.”
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?
Pea fanongo ki he ngaahi lea ni ʻae niʻihi ʻoe Fālesi naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻonau pehē ki ai, “ʻOku kui ʻakimautolu foki?”
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.
Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Ka ne kui ʻakimoutolu, pehē, ʻe ʻikai haʻamou angahala ka ko eni ʻoku mou pehē, ʻOku mau ʻā ko ia ʻoku maʻu pe hoʻomou angahala.”
