< John 9 >

1 As He passed by, He saw a man who had been blind from his birth.
Ngayon nang si Jesus ay dumaan, nakakita siya ng isang taong bulag mula pa sa kapanganakan.
2 So His disciples asked Him, "Rabbi, who sinned--this man or his parents--that he was born blind?"
Tinanong siya ng kaniyang mga alagad, “Rabi, sino ang nagkasala, ang taong ito o ang kaniyang mga magulang, na dapat siyang isilang na bulag?”
3 "Neither he nor his parents sinned," answered Jesus, "but he was born blind in order that God's mercy might be openly shown in him.
Sumagot si Jesus, “Hindi nagkasala ang taong ito ni ang kaniyang mga magulang, kundi upang ang mga gawa ng Dios ay mahayag sa kaniya.
4 We must do the works of Him who sent me while there is daylight. Night is coming on, when no one can work.
Kailangan nating gawin ang mga gawain niya na siyang nagpadala sa akin habang araw pa. Darating ang gabi na kung kailan wala ng kayang gumawa.
5 When I am in the world, I am the Light of the world."
Habang ako ay nasa sanlibutan, ako ang ilaw ng sanlibutan.”
6 After thus speaking, He spat on the ground, and then, kneading the dust and spittle into clay, He smeared the clay over the man's eyes and said to him,
Pagkatapos sabihin ni Jesus ang mga bagay na ito, dumura siya sa lupa, gumawa ng putik sa pamamagitan ng laway, at pinahiran ng putik ang mga mata ng lalake.
7 "Go and wash in the pool of Siloam" --the name means 'Sent.' So he went and washed his eyes, and returned able to see.
Sinabi niya sa kaniya, “Pumunta ka at maghilamos sa languyan ng Siloam (na isinalin na 'isinugo').” Kaya't umalis ang lalake, naghilamos, at bumalik nang nakakakakita na.
8 His neighbours, therefore, and the other people to whom he had been a familiar object because he was a beggar, began asking, "Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?"
Pagkatapos, ang mga kapitbahay ng lalake at iyong mga dating nakakita sa kaniya bilang isang pulubi ay nagsasabi, “Hindi ba't ito ang lalaking dating nakaupo at namamalimos?”
9 "Yes it is," replied some of them. "No it is not," said others, "but he is like him." His own statement was, "I am the man."
Sinabi ng ilan, “Siya nga.” Sinabi ng iba, “Hindi, ngunit siya ay kamukha niya.” Ngunit sinasabi niya, “Ako nga iyon.”
10 "How then were your eyes opened?" they asked.
Sinabi nila sa kaniya, “Kung gayon paanong nabuksan ang iyong mga mata?”
11 "He whose name is Jesus," he answered, "made clay and smeared my eyes with it, and then told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed and obtained sight."
Sumagot siya, “Ang taong tinatawag na Jesus ay gumawa ng putik at pinahiran ang aking mga mata at sinabi sa akin, “Pumunta ka sa Siloam at maghilamos.' Kaya umalis ako at naghilamos, at nanumbalik ang aking paningin.”
12 "Where is he?" they inquired, but the man did not know.
Sinabi nila sa kaniya, “Nasaan siya?” sumagot siya, “Hindi ko alam.”
13 They brought him to the Pharisees--the man who had been blind.
Dinala nila ang lalaki na dating bulag sa mga Pariseo.
14 Now the day on which Jesus made the clay and opened the man's eyes was the Sabbath.
Ngayon iyon ay Araw ng Pamamahinga nang si Jesus ay gumawa ng putik at pinadilat ang kaniyang mga mata.
15 So the Pharisees renewed their questioning as to how he had obtained his sight. "He put clay on my eyes," he replied, "and I washed, and now I can see."
Pagkatapos tinanong siya muli ng mga Pariseo kung paano niya natanggap ang kaniyang paningin. Sinabi niya sa kanila, “Nilagyan niya ng putik ang aking mga mata, naghilamos ako, at ngayon nakakakita na ako.”
16 This led some of the Pharisees to say, "That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath." "How is it possible for a bad man to do such miracles?" argued others.
Sinabi ng ilang mga Pariseo, “Ang taong ito ay hindi galing sa Dios dahil hindi niya tinutupad ang Araw ng Pamamahinga.” Sinabi ng iba, “Papaanong makakagawa ng ganyang mga pangitain ang isang tao na iyon na makasalanan?” Kaya nagkaroon ng pagkakabaha-bahagi sa kanilang kalagitnaan.
17 And there was a division among them. So again they asked the once blind man, "What is your account of him? --for he opened your eyes." "He is a Prophet," he replied.
Kaya tinanong nilang muli ang lalaking bulag, “Ano ang masasabi mo tungkol sa kaniya dahil pinadilat niya ang iyong mga mata?” Sinabi ng lalaking bulag, “Siya ay isang propeta.”
18 The Jews, however, did not believe the statement concerning him--that he had been blind and had obtained his sight--until they called his parents and asked them,
Ngayon ang mga Judio ay hindi pa din naniniwala tungkol sa kaniya na dating bulag at nakamit ang kaniyang paningin hanggang sa tinawag nila ang mga magulang ng iyong nagkamit ng kaniyang paningin.
19 "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How is it then that he can now see?"
Tinanong nila ang mga magulang, “Ito ba ang inyong Anak na sinasabi ninyong pinangangak na bulag? Papaanong nakakakita na siya ngayon?”
20 "We know," replied the parents, "that this is our son and that he was born blind;
Kaya sumagot ang kaniyang mga magulang sa kanila, “Alam naming ito ang aming anak at siya ay bulag nang isilang.
21 but how it is that he can now see or who has opened his eyes we do not know. Ask him himself; he is of full age; he himself will give his own account of it."
Kung paano siya ngayon ay nakakakita na, hindi namin alam, at kung sino ang nagpadilat sa kaniyang mga mata, hindi namin alam. Tanungin ninyo siya. Siya ay matanda na. Makakapag-salita siya para sa kaniyang sarili.”
22 Such was their answer, because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had already settled among themselves that if any one should acknowledge Jesus as the Christ, he should be excluded from the synagogue.
Sinabi ito ng kaniyang mga magulang sapagkat takot sila sa mga Judio. Sapagkat nagkasundo na ang mga Judio na kung sinumang magpahayag na si Jesus ay ang Cristo, dapat siyang palayasin sa sinagoga.
23 That was why his parents said, "He is of full age: ask him himself."
Dahil dito, sinabi ng kaniyang mga magulang, “Siya ay matanda na. Tanungin ninyo siya.
24 A second time therefore they called the man who had been blind, and said, "Give God the praise: we know that that man is a sinner."
Kaya sa pangalawang pagkakataon tinawag nila ang lalake na naging bulag at sinabi sa kaniya, “Magbigay papuri ka sa Dios. Alam naming makasalanan ang taong iyon.”
25 "Whether he is a sinner or not, I do not know," he replied; "one thing I know--that I was once blind and that now I can see."
At sumagot ang taong iyon, “Kung siya man ay isang makasalanan, hindi ko alam. Isang bagay ang alam ko: Noon ako ay bulag, at ngayon ako ay nakakakita na.”
26 "What did he do to you?" they asked; "how did he open your eyes?"
At sinabi nila sa kaniya, “Ano ang ginawa niya sa iyo? Paano niya pinadilat ang iyong mga mata?”
27 "I have told you already," he replied, "and you did not listen to me. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also mean to be disciples of his?"
Sumagot siya, “Sinabi ko na sa inyo at hindi ninyo pinakinggan! Bakit ninyo gustong itong marinig muli? Hindi ninyo nais maging alagad din niya, hindi ba?”
28 Then they railed at him, and said, "You are that man's disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
Nilait nila siya at sinabi, “Ikaw ay kaniyang alagad, ngunit kami ay mga alagad ni Moises.
29 We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this fellow we do not know where he comes from."
Alam namin na ang Dios ay nakipag-usap kay Moises, ngunit para sa taong iyon, hindi namin alam kung saan siya nanggaling.”
30 "Why, this is marvellous!" the man replied; "you do not know where he comes from, and yet he has opened my eyes!
Ang lalake ay sumagot at sinabi sa kanila, “Bakit, ito ay isang kamangha-manghang bagay, at hindi ninyo alam kung saan siya nagmula, gayon pinadilat niya ang aking mga mata.
31 We know that God does not listen to bad people, but that if any one is a God-fearing man and obeys Him, to him He listens.
Alam natin na ang Diyos ay hindi nakikinig sa mga makasalanan, ngunit kung ang isang tao ay sumasamba sa Diyos at gumagawa ng kaniyang kalooban, siya ay pakikinggan ng Diyos.
32 From the beginning of the world such a thing was never heard of as that any one should open the eyes of a man blind from his birth. (aiōn g165)
Mula ng nagsimula ang mundo hindi kailanman narinig na napadilat ng sinuman ang mga mata ng isang taong isinilang na bulag. (aiōn g165)
33 Had that man not come from God, he could have done nothing."
Kung ang taong ito ay hindi galing sa Diyos, wala siyang kayang gawin.”
34 "You," they replied, "were wholly begotten and born in sin, and do you teach us?" And they put him out of the synagogue.
Sumagot sila at sinabi sa kaniya, “Ikaw ay pawang ipinanganak sa mga kasalanan, at tinuturuan mo kami ngayon?” Pagkatapos ay pinalabas nila siya sa sinagoga.
35 Jesus heard that they had done this. So having found him, He asked him, "Do you believe in the Son of God?"
Narinig ni Jesus na pinalayas nila siya sa sinagoga. Nakita niya siya at sinabi, “Sumasampalataya ka ba sa Anak ng Tao?”
36 "Who is He, Sir?" replied the man. "Tell me, so that I may believe in Him."
Sumagot siya at sinabi, “Sino siya, Panginoon, upang sasampalataya ako sa kaniya?”
37 "You have seen Him," said Jesus; "and not only so: He is now speaking to you."
Sinabi ni Jesus sa kaniya, “Nakita mo na siya, at siya itong nakikipag-usap sa iyo.”
38 "I believe, Sir," he said. And he threw himself at His feet.
Sinabi ng lalake, “Panginoon, sumasampalataya ako.” Pagkatapos, sumamba siya sa kaniya.
39 "I came into this world," said Jesus, "to judge men, that those who do not see may see, and that those who do see may become blind."
Sinabi ni Jesus, “Naparito ako sa mundong ito para sa paghuhukom upang ang mga hindi nakakakita ay makakita, at upang ang mga nakakakita ay maging bulag.”
40 These words were heard by those of the Pharisees who were present, and they asked Him, "Are we also blind?"
Narinig ng ilan sa mga Pariseo na kasama niya ang mga bagay na ito, at nagtanong sa kaniya, “Bulag din ba kami?”
41 "If you were blind," answered Jesus, "you would have no sin; but as a matter of fact you boast that you see. So your sin remains!"
Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Kung kayo ay mga bulag, wala sana kayong kasalanan. Subalit, ngayon sinasabi ninyong, “Nakakakita kami,” kaya ang inyong kasalanan ay nananatili.
