John 9
1 As Jesus walked along [with us], he saw a man who had been blind from the time he was born.
I prolazeæi vidje èovjeka slijepa od roðenja.
2 We disciples asked him, “Teacher, was this man blind from when he was born because his parents sinned or because he himself sinned?”
I zapitaše ga uèenici njegovi govoreæi: Ravi! ko sagriješi, ili ovaj ili roditelji njegovi, te se rodi slijep?
3 Jesus replied, “His being blind was not because he or his parents sinned. Instead, [he has been blind] in order that [people can] see the power of God {the power of God can be seen} as a result of [what will now happen] to him.
Isus odgovori: ni on sagriješi ni roditelji njegovi, nego da se jave djela Božija na njemu.
4 While there is still time, I must do the work that the one who sent me [wants me to do. Just like daytime is followed by] nighttime when people do not work, [at the end of our lives] [MET] [it is too late for us to do what God wants].
Meni valja raditi djela onoga koji me posla dok je dan: doæi æe noæ kad niko ne može raditi.
5 While I am still [living] in this world, I am the [one who enables people to know about God, like] [MET] [a] light enables the people in [MTY] this world [to see what is in the darkness].”
Dok sam na svijetu vidjelo sam svijetu.
6 After he said that, he spat on the ground. He made [a little bit of] mud with the saliva, and put it on the man’s eyes.
Rekavši ovo pljunu na zemlju i naèini kao od pljuvanke, i pomaza kalom oèi slijepome,
7 Then he said to him, “Go and wash in Siloam pool!” (That name means ‘sent;’ [just like they sent the water by a channel into the pool, God sent Jesus]). So the man went and washed [in the pool], and when he went home he was able to see!
I reèe: idi umij se u banji Siloamskoj koje znaèi poslan). Otide dakle i umi se, i doðe gledajuæi.
8 His neighbors and others who previously had seen him when he was begging said, “He is the man who used to sit here and beg, isn’t he?”
A susjedi i koji ga bijahu vidjeli prije da bješe slijep govorahu: nije li ovo onaj što sjeðaše i prošaše?
9 Some said, “[Yes], he is.” Others said, “No, [he is not]. It is [just] a man who looks like him!” But the man himself said, “Yes, I am that man!”
Jedni govorahu: on je; a drugi: nalik je na nj. A on govoraše: ja sam.
10 So they said to him, “How is it that now you can see?”
Tada mu govorahu: kako ti se otvoriše oèi?
11 He replied, “The man whose name is Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes. Then he told me to go to Siloam [pool] and wash. So I went there and washed, and then I could see.”
On odgovori i reèe: èovjek koji se zove Isus naèini kao, i pomaza oèi moje, i reèe mi: idi u banju Siloamsku i umij se. A kad otidoh i umih se, progledah.
12 They said to him, “Where is that man [now]?” He said, “I do not know.”
Tada mu rekoše: gdje je on? Reèe: ne znam.
13 They took to the Pharisees the man who was previously blind.
Tada ga povedoše k farisejima, onoga što bješe nekad slijep.
14 The day on which Jesus made the mud and enabled the man to see again was a (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest). [The Pharisees considered that healing someone was work, and their rules did not permit people to do any work] ([on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]).
A bješe subota kad naèini Isus kao i otvori mu oèi.
15 So the Pharisees also asked that man, “How did you become able to see?” He said to them, “The man put mud on my eyes. Then I washed, and now I can see!”
Tada ga opet pitahu i fariseji kako progleda. A on im reèe: kao metnu mi na oèi, i umih se, i vidim.
16 So some of the Pharisees said, “Since this man [Jesus] disobeys [our rules about working] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), he is not from God.” But others said, “If he was a sinner, (he could certainly not do such miracles!/how could he do such miracles?) [RHQ]” So they were divided.
Tada govorahu neki od fariseja: nije ovaj èovjek od Boga, jer ne svetkuje subote. Drugi govorahu: kako može èovjek grješan takova èudesa èiniti? I posta raspra meðu njima.
17 So one of them said to the blind man again, “You are the man whom he enabled to see. What do you yourself say about him?” The man said, “[I think] he is a prophet!” [So they told him to go].
Rekoše dakle opet slijepcu: šta veliš ti za njega što ti otvori oèi tvoje? A on reèe: prorok je.
18 The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] still did not believe that the man was blind when he was born, and that he was [now] able to see. So they sent someone to bring the man’s parents.
Tada Jevreji ne vjerovaše za njega da bješe slijep i progleda, dok ne dozvaše roditelje onoga što je progledao,
19 [When they got there], one of [the Jewish leaders] asked them, “Is that man your son? Do you say that he was blind when he was born? [If that is true], how is he now able to see?”
I zapitaše ih govoreæi: je li ovo vaš sin za koga vi govorite da se rodi slijep? kako dakle sad vidi?
20 His parents replied, “We know that he is our son. We know that he was blind when he was born.
A roditelji njegovi odgovoriše im i rekoše: znamo da je ovo sin naš i da se rodi slijep;
21 But we do not know how he is able to see now. We also do not know who enabled him to see. Ask our son! He is old enough [to answer questions from authorities like you] He can tell you himself!”
A kako sad vidi ne znamo; ili ko mu otvori oèi mi ne znamo; on je veliki, pitajte njega neka sam kaže za sebe.
22 The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] had previously declared that they would prevent anyone who declared that Jesus was the Messiah from [entering] their synagogues. His parents [knew that, so] they were afraid of the Jewish [leaders] [SYN].
Ovo rekoše roditelji njegovi, jer se bojahu Jevreja; jer se Jevreji bijahu dogovorili da bude odluèen od zbornice ko ga prizna za Hrista.
23 That is the reason that they said, “He is old enough [to answer questions], so ask him!”
Zato rekoše roditelji njegovi: on je veliki, pitajte njega.
24 So they sent someone to bring back to them the man who had been blind. [When he got there], the [Jewish leaders] said to him, “Knowing that God [is listening] [IDM], tell the truth! We know that the man who healed you is a sinner.”
Tada po drugi put dozvaše èovjeka koji je bio slijep, i rekoše mu: podaj Bogu slavu; mi znamo da je èovjek ovaj grješan.
25 He replied, “I do not know if he is a sinner or not. But one thing I do know is that I was blind, but now I can see!”
A on odgovori i reèe: je li grješan ne znam; samo znam da ja bijah slijep, a sad vidim.
26 So they said to him, “What did he do to you? How did he enable you to see?”
Tada mu opet rekoše: šta ti uèini? kako otvori oèi tvoje?
27 He replied, “I told you that already, but you did not [RHQ] pay attention! Why do you want to hear me tell you again? (Do you also want to become his disciples?/You talk as though [IRO] you also want to become his disciples [RHQ]).”
Odgovori im: ja vam veæ kazah, i ne slušaste; šta æete opet slušati? Veæ ako i vi hoæete uèenici njegovi da budete?
28 Then they insulted him angrily. They said, “You are that man’s disciple, but we are Moses’ disciples!
A oni ga ukoriše, i rekoše mu: ti si uèenik njegov, a mi smo uèenici Mojsijevi.
29 We know that God spoke to Moses; but this man, we do not know where he is from or where he [gets any authority] from!”
Mi znamo da s Mojsijem govori Bog; a ovoga ne znamo otkuda je.
30 The man replied, “That is very surprising! You [say that] you do not know where he [gets any authority]. But he enabled me to see!
Èovjek odgovori i reèe im: to i jest za èudo, što vi ne znate otkuda je a on otvori oèi moje.
31 We know that God does not help sinners [who ask God to help them]. Instead, he listens to [and helps] godly people who pray. He listens to people who do what God wants.
A znamo da Bog ne sluša grješnika; nego ako ko poštuje Boga i volju njegovu tvori onoga sluša.
32 No one has ever enabled a man to see who was blind when he was born [like I was]. That has never happened since the world began! (aiōn g165)
Otkako je svijeta nije èuveno da ko otvori oèi roðenom slijepcu. (aiōn g165)
33 So if this man had not come from God, he would not be able to do anything [like that]!”
Kad on ne bi bio od Boga ne bi mogao ništa èiniti.
34 They replied to him, “You (were born [as a result of your parents’] sin [EUP]/bastard)! (Do you think you are qualified to teach us?/You are not qualified to teach us!) [RHQ]” Then they threw him out [of the synagogue].
Odgovoriše i rekoše mu: ti si se rodio sav u grijesima, pa zar ti nas da uèiš? I istjeraše ga napolje.
35 Jesus heard [people say] that they had thrown that man out. He found the man and said to him, “Do you believe that the one who came down from heaven [is the Messiah]?”
Èu Isus da ga istjeraše napolje; i našavši ga reèe mu: vjeruješ li ti sina Božijega?
36 The man answered, “Sir, who is he? [Tell me], in order that I may believe in him.”
On odgovori i reèe: a koje je, Gospode, da ga vjerujem?
37 Jesus said to him, “You have seen him. [In fact, it is I], the one who am speaking to you.”
A Isus mu reèe: i vidio si ga, i koji govori s tobom on je.
38 The man said, “Lord, I believe that [you are the Messiah]!” Then he [knelt down before] Jesus and worshipped him.
A on reèe: vjerujem, Gospode! I pokloni mu se.
39 Jesus said, “I have come into this world to judge [the people in the world]. The result will be that [those who realize that they do not know God’s truth will perceive it. That is like] [MET] [enabling] those who are blind to see. But the result will also be that people who [falsely think] [IRO] that [they understand God’s truth will never understand it. That is like] [MET] [people] who are blind remaining blind permanently.”
I reèe Isus: ja doðoh na sud na ovaj svijet, da vide koji ne vide, i koji vide da postanu slijepi.
40 Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard him say that, and said to him, “You are not suggesting that we are [like] blind people, are you?”
I èuše ovo neki od fariseja koji bijahu s njim, i rekoše mu: eda li smo i mi slijepi?
41 Jesus said to them, “If you [realized that you did not yet know God’s truth, but you wanted to, then you would be like] blind people [who wanted to see. God would be able to] forgive your sins. But you are now [falsely] claiming that you [know God’s truth, so you are like people who are blind who claim that they] can see. [Because of that, God is not able to] forgive your sins.”
Reèe im Isus: kad biste bili slijepi, ne biste imali grijeha, a sad govorite da vidite, tako vaš grijeh ostaje.
