John 9

1 And passing by, he saw a man blind from birth,

Ary raha nandalo Jesosy, dia nahita lehilahy jamba hatry ny fony vao teraka.

2 and his disciples asked him, saying, 'Rabbi, who did sin, this one or his parents, that he should be born blind?'

Ary ny mpianany nanontany Azy hoe: Raby ô, iza moa no nanota, io lehilahy io va, sa ny ray aman-dreniny, no dia teraka jamba izy?

3 Jesus answered, 'Neither did this one sin nor his parents, but that the works of God may be manifested in him;

Jesosy namaly hoe: Tsy io lehilahy io no nanota, na ny ray aman-dreniny, fa ny hanehoana ny asan’ Andriamanitra eo aminy.

4 it behoveth me to be working the works of Him who sent me while it is day; night doth come, when no one is able to work: —

Isika tsy maintsy manao ny asan’ izay naniraka Ahy, raha mbola antoandro; avy ny alina, ka tsy mahazo miasa ny olona.

5 when I am in the world, I am a light of the world.'

Raha amin’ izao tontolo izao Aho, dia fahazavan’ izao tontolo izao.

6 These things saying, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and rubbed the clay on the eyes of the blind man, and said to him,

Rehefa nilaza izany Izy, dia nandrora tamin’ ny tany ka nanao feta tamin’ ny rora, dia nahosony ny mason’ ilay jamba.

7 'Go away, wash at the pool of Siloam,' which is, interpreted, Sent. He went away, therefore, and did wash, and came seeing;

Ary hoy Izy taminy: Andeha, sasao ny masonao any amin’ ny farihy Siloama (izay atao hoe, raha adika, Nirahina). Dia lasa izy ka nanasa, dia niverina nahiratra.

8 the neighbours, therefore, and those seeing him before, that he was blind, said, 'Is not this he who is sitting and begging?'

Koa izay nifanolotra taminy sy izay nahita azy fa mpangataka izy taloha dia nanao hoe: Tsy ity va ilay nipetraka nangataka?

9 others said — 'This is he;' and others — 'He is like to him;' he himself said, — 'I am [he].'

Hoy ny sasany: Izy ity, fa hoy ny sasany: Tsia, fa tahaka azy ihany; ary hoy kosa izy: Izaho no izy.

10 They said, therefore, to him, 'How were thine eyes opened?'

Dia hoy ny olona taminy: Ahoana no nahiratan’ ny masonao?

11 he answered and said, 'A man called Jesus made clay, and rubbed my eyes, and said to me, Go away to the pool of Siloam, and wash; and having gone away and having washed, I received sight;'

Ary izy namaly ka nanao hoe: Ilay Lehilahy atao hoe Jesosy no nanao feta, dia nanosotra ny masoko ka nanao tamiko hoe: Mankanesa any Siloama, ka sasao ny masonao; koa nandeha aho, dia nanasa azy, ka dia nahiratra.

12 they said, therefore, to him, 'Where is that one?' he saith, 'I have not known.'

Ary hoy ny olona taminy: Aiza moa izany Lehilahy izany? Hoy ralehilahy: Tsy fantatro.

13 They bring him to the Pharisees who once [was] blind,

Ary ilay jamba taloha dia nentiny tany amin’ ny Fariseo.

14 and it was a sabbath when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

Ary tamin’ ny andro Sabata no nanaovan’ i Jesosy ny feta sy nampahiratany ny mason-dralehilahy.

15 Again, therefore, the Pharisees also were asking him how he received sight, and he said to them, 'Clay he did put upon my eyes, and I did wash — and I see.'

Ary ny Fariseo koa nanontany azy izay nahiratan’ ny masony. Dia hoy izy taminy: Nasiany feta ny masoko, dia nosasako, ka nahiratra aho.

16 Of the Pharisees, therefore, certain said, 'This man is not from God, because the sabbath he doth not keep;' others said, 'How is a man — a sinful one — able to do such signs?' and there was a division among them.

Ary hoy ny Fariseo sasany: Tsy avy amin’ Andriamanitra izany Lehilahy izany, satria tsy mitandrina ny Sabata Izy. Hoy ny sasany: Hataon’ ny lehilahy mpanota ahoana no fahay manao fahagagana toy izany? Dia nisara-tsaina izy.

17 They said to the blind man again, 'Thou — what dost thou say of him — that he opened thine eyes?'

Ary hoy indray izy tamin’ ilay jamba: Ahoana no ilazanao Azy, fa nampahiratra ny masonao Izy? Dia hoy izy: Mpaminany Izy.

18 and he said — 'He is a prophet.' The Jews, therefore, did not believe concerning him that he was blind and did receive sight, till that they called the parents of him who received sight,

Ary amin’ izany ny Jiosy tsy nino azy ho efa jamba ka nahiratra, ambara-piantsony ny ray aman-drenin’ ilay nahiratra

19 and they asked them, saying, 'Is your son, of whom ye say that he was born blind? how then now doth he see?'

ka nanontaniany hoe: Zanakareo moa ity, izay lazainareo fa teraka jamba? Koa nanao ahoana ary no nahiratany izao?

20 His parents answered them and said, 'We have known that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

Ny ray aman-dreniny namaly ka nanao hoe: Fantatray fa zanakay ity sady teraka jamba;

21 and how he now seeth, we have not known; or who opened his eyes, we have not known; himself is of age, ask him; he himself shall speak concerning himself.'

fa tsy fantatray izay nahiratany izao; ary tsy fantatray izay nampahiratra ny masony; izy ihany no anontanio; efa lehibe izy, aoka izy no hilaza ny amin’ ny tenany.

22 These things said his parents, because they were afraid of the Jews, for already had the Jews agreed together, that if any one may confess him — Christ, he may be put out of the synagogue;

Izany teny izany no nolazain’ ny ray aman-dreniny, satria natahotra ny Jiosy izy; fa efa nifanaiky rahateo ny Jiosy fa raha misy manaiky Azy ho Kristy dia horoahina hiala amin’ ny synagoga.

23 because of this his parents said — 'He is of age, ask him.'

Izany no nilazan’ ny ray aman-dreniny hoe: Efa lehibe izy, koa izy no anontanio.

24 They called, therefore, a second time the man who was blind, and they said to him, 'Give glory to God, we have known that this man is a sinner;'

Dia niantso ilay jamba teo aloha indray izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Omeo voninahitra Andriamanitra; izahay mahalala fa mpanota izany Lehilahy izany.

25 he answered, therefore, and said, 'If he be a sinner — I have not known, one thing I have known, that, being blind, now I see.'

Fa izy namaly hoe. Tsy fantatro na mpanota Izy, na tsia; zavatra iray loha ihany no fantatro: jamba aho teo aloha, fa mahiratra aho izao.

26 And they said to him again, 'What did he to thee? how did he open thine eyes?'

Dia hoy izy taminy: Inona no nataony taminao? Nanao ahoana ange no nampahiratany ny masonao?

27 He answered them, 'I told you already, and ye did not hear; why again do ye wish to hear? do ye also wish to become his disciples?'

Dia namaly azy hoe izy: Efa voalazako taminareo rahateo, fa tsy nihaino ianareo; nahoana no te-hihaino indray ianareo? Moa te-ho mpianany koa va ianareo?

28 They reviled him, therefore, and said, 'Thou art his disciple, and we are Moses' disciples;

Dia nanevateva azy izy ka nanao hoe: Ialahy no mpianany; fa izahay mpianatr’ i Mosesy.

29 we have known that God hath spoken to Moses, but this one — we have not known whence he is.'

Izahay mahalala fa Mosesy no nitenenan’ Andriamanitra; fa ny amin’ izany Lehilahy izany, dia tsy fantatray izay nihaviany.

30 The man answered and said to them, 'Why, in this is a wonderful thing, that ye have not known whence he is, and he opened my eyes!

Ralehilahy namaly azy hoe: Mba mahagaga tokoa lahy izany! fa tsy fantatrareo ny nihaviany, nefa nampahiratra ny masoko Izy.

31 and we have known that God doth not hear sinners, but, if any one may be a worshipper of God, and may do His will, him He doth hear;

Fantatsika fa Andriamanitra tsy mihaino ny mpanota; fa izay mivavaka aminy sy manao ny sitrapony no henoiny.

32 from the age it was not heard, that any one did open eyes of one who hath been born blind; (aiōn g165)

Hatrizay hatrizay dia tsy mbola re fa nisy nampahiratra ny mason’ izay teraka jamba. (aiōn g165)

33 if this one were not from God, he were not able to do anything.'

Raha tsy avy amin’ Andriamanitra izany Lehilahy izany, dia tsy mahefa na inona na inona Izy.

34 They answered and said to him, 'In sins thou wast born altogether, and thou dost teach us!' and they cast him forth without.

Ary namaly ireo ka nanao taminy hoe: Tena teraka tamin’ ny ota ialahy, ka ialahy indray va mampianatra anay? Dia noroahiny izy.

35 Jesus heard that they cast him forth without, and having found him, he said to him, 'Dost thou believe in the Son of God?'

Jesosy nandre fa efa noroahiny ralehilahy; ary rehefa nahita azy Izy, dia nanao hoe: Mino ny Zanak-Andriamanitra va ianao?

36 he answered and said, 'Who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?'

Ralehilahy namaly ka nanao hoe: Iza moa no Izy, Tompoko, mba hinoako Azy?

37 And Jesus said to him, 'Thou hast both seen him, and he who is speaking with thee is he;'

Hoy Jesosy taminy: Efa nahita Azy ianao, sady Izay miresaka aminao izao no Izy.

38 and he said, 'I believe, sir,' and bowed before him.

Ary hoy izy: Tompoko, mino aho. Dia niankohoka teo anatrehany izy.

39 And Jesus said, 'For judgment I to this world did come, that those not seeing may see, and those seeing may become blind.'

Ary hoy Jesosy: Ho fitsarana no nahatongavako amin’ izao tontolo izao, mba hahiratra ny tsy mahiratra, ary mba ho tonga jamba kosa ny mahiratra.

40 And those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and they said to him, 'Are we also blind?'

Ary ny Fariseo sasany izay teo aminy, nony nandre izany, dia nanao taminy hoe: Izahay koa va mba jamba?

41 Jesus said to them, 'If ye were blind, ye were not having had sin, but now ye say — We see, therefore doth your sin remain.

Hoy Jesosy taminy: Raha jamba ianareo, dia tsy ho nanan-keloka; nefa hoy ianareo ankehitriny: Mahiratra izahay; dia tsy afaka ny helokareo.
