John 9

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

In ko je Jezus šel mimo, je zagledal človeka, ki je bil slep od svojega rojstva.

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

In njegovi učenci so ga vprašali, rekoč: »Učitelj, kdo je storil greh, ta človek ali njegovi starši, da je bil rojen slep.«

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

Jezus je odgovoril: »Niti ni ta človek grešil niti njegovi starši, temveč, da bi se na njem razodela Božja dela.

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: —

Dokler je dan, moram delati dela tistega, ki me je poslal. Prihaja noč, ko noben človek ne more delati.

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

Kolikor dolgo sem na svetu, sem svetloba sveta.«

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,

Ko je to izgovoril, je pljunil na tla in iz sline naredil blato in z blatom mazilil oči slepega človeka

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

ter mu rekel: »Pojdi, umij se v bazenu Síloi, « (kar je po razlagi: ›Poslani.‹) Odšel je torej svojo pot in se umil in prišel ter videl.

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

Torej sosedje in tisti, ki so ga prej videli, da je bil slep, so rekli: »Ali ni to tisti, ki je sedel in beračil?«

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

Nekateri so rekli: »To je on, « drugi so rekli: »Podoben mu je.« Toda on je rekel: »Jaz sem.«

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

Zaradi tega so mu rekli: »Kako so bile tvoje oči odprte?«

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;'

Odgovoril je in rekel: »Človek, ki se imenuje Jezus, je naredil blato ter mazilil moje oči in mi rekel: ›Pojdi k bazenu Síloa in umij.‹ In odšel sem in umil ter prejel vid.«

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

Potem so mu rekli: »Kje je tisti?« Rekel je: »Ne vem.«

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

K farizejem so privedli tistega, ki je bil poprej slep.

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

In bil je šabatni dan, ko je Jezus naredil blato in odprl njegove oči.

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.'

Tedaj so ga tudi farizeji ponovno vprašali, kako je prejel svoj vid. Rekel jim je: »Na moje oči je položil blato in sem umil ter vidim.«

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.

Zato so nekateri izmed farizejev rekli: »Ta človek ni od Boga, ker se ne drži šabatnega dne.« Drugi so rekli: »Kako lahko človek, ki je grešnik, dela takšne čudeže?« In med njimi je bilo nesoglasje.

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

Slepemu možu so ponovno rekli: »Kaj praviš o tistem, ki ti je odprl tvoje oči?« Rekel je: »Prerok je.«

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,

Toda Judje glede njega niso verjeli, da je bil slep in je prejel svoj vid, dokler niso poklicali staršev tega, ki je prejel svoj vid.

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

In vprašali so ju, rekoč: »Je to vajin sin, o katerem pravite, da je bil rojen slep? Kako potem sedaj vidi?«

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

Njegova starša sta jim odgovorila in rekla: »Midva veva, da je to najin sin in da je bil rojen slep,

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.'

toda na kakšen način on sedaj vidi, midva ne veva; ali kdo je odprl njegove oči, midva ne veva. Dovolj je star, njega vprašajte, on bo govoril zase.«

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;

Te besede so njegovi starši govorili zato, ker so se bali Judov, kajti Judje so se že sporazumeli, da če bi katerikoli človek priznal, da je bil on Kristus, bi bil le-ta izločen iz sinagoge.

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

Zaradi tega so njegovi starši rekli: »Dovolj je star, njega vprašajte.«

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;'

Tedaj so ponovno poklicali moža, ki je bil slep in mu rekli: »Daj Bogu hvalo. Mi vemo, da je ta človek grešnik.«

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.'

Odgovoril je in rekel: »Če je grešnik ali ne, ne vem. Eno stvar vem, glede na to, da sem bil slep, sedaj vidim.«

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

Tedaj so mu ponovno rekli: »Kaj ti je storil? Kako je odprl tvoje oči?«

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?'

Odgovoril jim je: »Povedal sem vam že, pa niste poslušali. Zakaj bi to radi ponovno slišali? Hočete biti tudi vi njegovi učenci?«

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

Tedaj so ga zasramovali in rekli: »Ti si njegov učenec, toda mi smo Mojzesovi učenci.

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

Mi vemo, da je Mojzesu govoril Bog; glede tega pa ne vemo, od kod je.«

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!

Človek je odgovoril in jim rekel: »Zakaj v tem je čudovita stvar, da vi ne veste, od kod je, pa je vendar odprl moje oči.

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;

Torej vemo, da Bog ne sliši grešnikov; toda če je katerikoli človek oboževalec Boga in izvršuje njegovo voljo, njega on sliši.

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

Odkar je svet nastal, se ni slišalo, da bi katerikoli človek odprl oči nekoga, ki je bil rojen slep. (aiōn g165)

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

Če ta človek ne bi bil od Boga, ne bi mogel ničesar storiti.«

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

Odgovorili so mu in mu rekli: »Povsem si bil rojen v grehih in nas ti učiš?« In vrgli so ga ven.

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?'

Jezus je slišal, da so ga vrgli ven. In ko ga je našel, mu je rekel: »Ali veruješ v Božjega Sina?«

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

Odgovoril je in rekel: »Kdo je ta, Gospod, da bi lahko veroval vanj?«

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

Jezus mu je rekel: »Ti si ga oboje [in] videl in ta je, ki govori s teboj.«

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

In rekel je: »Gospod, verujem.« In ga je oboževal.

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

Jezus je rekel: »Za sodbo sem prišel na ta svet, da bi tisti, ki ne vidijo, lahko videli in da bi tisti, ki vidijo, lahko oslepeli.«

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

Nekateri izmed farizejev, ki so bili z njim, so slišali te besede in mu rekli: »Ali smo tudi mi slepi?«

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.

Jezus jim je rekel: »Če bi bili slepi, ne bi imeli greha, toda sedaj pravite: ›Vidimo, ‹ zato vaš greh ostaja.«
