< Johana 9 >
1 Na rĩrĩa aathiiaga na njĩra-rĩ, akĩona mũndũ waciarĩtwo arĩ mũtumumu.
And as Iesus passed by, he sawe a man which was blinde from his birth.
2 Nao arutwo ake makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Rabii, nũũ wehirie, nĩ mũndũ ũyũ kana nĩ aciari ake, nĩgeetha aciarwo arĩ mũtumumu?”
And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sinne, this man, or his parents, that he was borne blinde?
3 Nake Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ti mũndũ ũyũ kana aciari ake mehirie. No ũndũ ũyũ wekĩkire nĩgeetha wĩra wa Ngai wonanio mũtũũrĩre-inĩ wake.
Iesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents, but that the workes of God should be shewed on him.
4 Rĩrĩa rĩothe arĩ mũthenya-rĩ, no nginya tũrute wĩra wa ũrĩa wandũmire. Ũtukũ nĩũrooka rĩrĩa gũtarĩ mũndũ ũngĩhota kũruta wĩra.
I must worke the workes of him that sent me, while it is day: the night commeth when no man can worke.
5 Rĩrĩa ndĩ gũkũ thĩ, nĩ niĩ ũtheri wa thĩ.”
As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 Na aarĩkia kuuga ũguo, agĩtua mata thĩ, akĩringia ndoro na mata macio, na akĩmĩhaka mũndũ ũcio maitho.
Assoone as he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spettle, and anointed the eyes of the blinde with the clay,
7 Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ũgethambe Karia-inĩ ga Siloamu” (narĩo rĩĩtwa Siloamu nĩ kuuga Gũtũmwo.) Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũndũ ũcio agĩthiĩ na agĩĩthamba, na agĩũka mũciĩ akĩonaga.
And sayd vnto him, Go wash in the poole of Siloam (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came againe seeing.
8 Nao andũ a itũũra rĩake na arĩa maamuonete mbere ĩyo akĩhooya ũteithio makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Githĩ mũndũ ũyũ ti ũrĩa ũraikaraga thĩ ahooyage ũteithio?”
Nowe the neighbours and they that had seene him before, when he was blinde, sayd, Is not this he that sate and begged?
9 Andũ amwe makiuga atĩ aarĩ we. Nao arĩa angĩ makiuga atĩrĩ, “Aca, no kũhaana amũhaana.” Nowe agĩkĩrĩrĩria kuuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ mũndũ ũcio.”
Some said, This is he: and other sayd, He is like him: but he himselfe sayd, I am he.
10 Nao makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Maitho maku makĩhingũkire atĩa?”
Therefore they sayd vnto him, Howe were thine eyes opened?
11 Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũrĩa metaga Jesũ nĩwe ũringirie ndoro aahaka maitho, anjĩĩra thiĩ ngeethambe Karia-inĩ ga Siloamu. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndathiĩ na ndeethamba, na ndahota kuona.”
He answered, and sayd, The man that is called Iesus, made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and sayde vnto me, Goe to the poole of Siloam and wash. So I went and washed, and receiued sight.
12 Nao makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũcio arĩ ha?” Nake akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndiũũĩ.”
Then they sayd vnto him, Where is he? He sayd, I can not tell.
13 Nao magĩtwara mũndũ ũcio warĩ mũtumumu kũrĩ Afarisai.
They brought to the Pharises him that was once blinde.
14 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũcio Jesũ aaringirie ndoro na akĩhingũra maitho ma mũndũ ũcio warĩ wa Thabatũ.
And it was the Sabbath day, when Iesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Afarisai o nao makĩmũũria ũrĩa aahotete kuona. Nake mũndũ ũcio akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Aahakire ndoro maitho, na niĩ ndeethamba na rĩu nĩndĩrona.”
Then againe the Pharises also asked him, how he had receiued sight. And hee sayd vnto them, He layd clay vpon mine eyes, and I washed, and doe see.
16 Nao Afarisai amwe makiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ ndoimĩte kũrĩ Ngai, nĩgũkorwo ndamenyagĩrĩra Thabatũ.” No arĩa angĩ makĩũria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ mwĩhia ahota atĩa kũringa ciama ta ici?” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩamũkana.
Then said some of the Pharises, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the Sabbath day. Others sayd, Howe can a man that is a sinner, doe such miracles? and there was a dissension among them.
17 Mũthia-inĩ Afarisai acio makĩhũgũkĩra mũndũ ũcio warĩ mũtumumu, makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee ũkuuga atĩa ha ũhoro wake? Nĩwe araahingũrire maitho.” Nake mũndũ ũcio agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Nĩ mũnabii.”
Then spake they vnto the blinde againe, What sayest thou of him, because he hath opened thine eyes? And he sayd, He is a Prophet.
18 O na kũrĩ ũguo Ayahudi matiigana gwĩtĩkia ũhoro wa mũndũ ũcio atĩ aarĩ mũtumumu na atĩ nĩacookete kuona, nginya rĩrĩa maatũmanĩire aciari ake.
Then the Iewes did not beleeue him (that he had bene blinde, and receiued his sight) vntill they had called the parents of him that had receiued sight.
19 Makĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩ mwana wanyu? Ũyũ nĩwe mũroiga aaciarirwo arĩ mũtumumu? Rĩu ahotete atĩa kuona?”
And they asked them, saying, Is this your sonne, whom ye say was borne blinde? How doeth he nowe see then?
20 Nao aciari ake magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ tũũĩ nĩ mwana witũ na tũũĩ aaciarirwo arĩ mũtumumu.
His parents answered them, and sayd, We know that this is our sonne, and that he was borne blinde:
21 No ũrĩa ahotete kuona, kana ũrĩa ũmũhingũrire maitho make, ithuĩ tũtiũĩ. Mũũriei nĩ mũgima, nĩekwĩyarĩrĩria.”
But by what meanes hee nowe seeth, we know not: or who hath opened his eyes, can we not tell: he is olde ynough: aske him: hee shall answere for himselfe.
22 Aciari ake moigire ũguo nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtigĩra Ayahudi, nĩgũkorwo Ayahudi nĩmarĩkĩtie gũtua atĩ mũndũ o wothe ũngiuga atĩ Jesũ nĩwe Kristũ nĩegũikio nja ya thunagogi.
These wordes spake his parents, because they feared the Iewes: for the Iewes had ordeined already, that if any man did confesse that he was Christ, he should be excommunicate out of the Synagogue.
23 Nĩkĩo aciari ake moigire atĩrĩ, “Nĩ mũgima; mũũriei.”
Therefore sayde his parents, Hee is olde ynough: aske him.
24 Magĩĩta mũndũ ũcio warĩ mũtumumu hĩndĩ ya keerĩ. Makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Goocithia Ngai. Nĩtũũĩ mũndũ ũyũ nĩ mwĩhia.”
Then againe called they the man that had bene blinde, and sayd vnto him, Giue glory vnto God: we know that this man is a sinner.
25 Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndiũĩ kana nĩ mwĩhia kana ti mwĩhia. No njũũĩ ũndũ ũyũ ũmwe; ndĩraarĩ mũtumumu na rĩu nĩndĩrona!”
Then he answered, and sayd, Whether hee be a sinner or no, I can not tell: one thing I know, that I was blinde, and nowe I see.
26 Ningĩ makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Agwĩkire atĩa? Akũhingũrire maitho atĩa?”
Then sayd they to him againe, What did he to thee? howe opened he thine eyes?
27 Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩndamwĩra ũhoro o rĩu na inyuĩ mũtinathikĩrĩria. Mũrenda kũigua rĩngĩ nĩkĩ? O na inyuĩ nĩmũkwenda gũtuĩka arutwo ake?”
Hee answered them, I haue tolde you already, and yee haue not heard it: wherefore would yee heare it againe? will yee also be his disciples?
28 Nao makĩmũruma, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee ũrĩ mũrutwo wa mũndũ ũyũ! Ithuĩ tũrĩ arutwo a Musa!
Then reuiled they him, and sayd, Be thou his disciple: we be Moses disciples.
29 Ithuĩ nĩtũũĩ atĩ Ngai nĩarĩirie Musa, no ha ũhoro wa mũndũ ũyũ-rĩ, tũtiũĩ o na kũrĩa oimĩte.”
We know that God spake with Moses: but this man we know not from whence he is.
30 Nake mũndũ ũcio akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ũcio nĩ ũrirũ-ĩ! Inyuĩ mũtiũĩ kũrĩa oimĩte, na nĩwe ũũhingũrire maitho.
The man answered, and sayde vnto them, Doutlesse, this is a marueilous thing, that ye know not whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.
31 Nĩtũũĩ atĩ Ngai ndathikagĩrĩria andũ ehia. Athikagĩrĩria mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩ na ũngai na ũrĩa wĩkaga wendi wake.
Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him heareth he.
32 Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũrĩ waigua ũhoro wa mũndũ ũhingũrĩtwo maitho aciarĩtwo arĩ mũtumumu. (aiōn )
Since the world began, was it not heard, that any man opened the eyes of one that was borne blinde. (aiōn )
33 Korwo mũndũ ũyũ ndoimĩte kũrĩ Ngai ndarĩ ũndũ angĩhota gwĩka.”
If this man were not of God, hee could haue done nothing.
34 Igũrũ rĩa ũhoro ũcio magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Wee waciarirwo ũrĩ na mehia. Ũngĩkĩgeria atĩa gũtũruta!” Nao makĩmũikania na kũu nja.
They answered, and sayd vnto him, Thou art altogether borne in sinnes, and doest thou teach vs? so they cast him out.
35 Jesũ nĩaiguire atĩ nĩmaikĩtie mũndũ ũcio nja, na rĩrĩa aamuonire akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwĩtĩkĩtie Mũrũ wa Mũndũ?”
Iesus heard that they had cast him out: and when he had found him, he sayd vnto him, Doest thou beleeue in the Sonne of God?
36 Nake mũndũ ũcio akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, ũcio nĩwe ũ? Njĩĩra, nĩgeetha ndĩmwĩtĩkie.”
He answered, and sayd, Who is he, Lord, that I might beleeue in him?
37 Nake Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rĩu nĩũmuonete; nĩwe ũyũ ũraaria nawe.”
And Iesus sayd vnto him, Both thou hast seene him, and he it is that talketh with thee.
38 Nake mũndũ ũcio akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, nĩndetĩkia,” na akĩmũthathaiya.
Then he sayd, Lord, I beleeue, and worshipped him.
39 Ningĩ Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Njũkĩte gũkũ thĩ nĩ ũndũ wa gũtuanĩra ciira, nĩgeetha arĩa atumumu mahote kuona, nao arĩa monaga matuĩke atumumu.”
And Iesus sayd, I am come vnto iudgement into this world, that they which see not, might see: and that they which see, might be made blinde.
40 Afarisai amwe arĩa maarĩ nake makĩigua akiuga ũguo, nao makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Atĩ atĩa? O na ithuĩ tũrĩ atumumu?”
And some of the Pharises which were with him, heard these things, and sayd vnto him, Are we blinde also?
41 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũngĩrĩ atumumu-rĩ, mũtingĩrĩ na mehia; no rĩu tondũ muugaga atĩ nĩmuonaga-rĩ, mũgũikara o na wĩhia wanyu.”
Iesus sayd vnto them, If ye were blinde, ye should not haue sinne: but nowe ye say, We see: therefore your sinne remaineth.
