Jan 9
1 Pandan Li t ap pase, Li te wè yon nonm ki te avèg depi nesans Li.
As Jesus walked along, he saw a man who had been blind from birth.
2 Konsa, disip Li yo te mande: “Rabbi, kilès ki te peche. Mesye sa, oswa paran li yo pou li ta fèt avèg?”
His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he should be born blind?”
3 Jésus te reponn: “Se pa mesye sila, ni paran li yo. Men se te pou zèv a Bondye ta kapab parèt nan Li.
Jesus answered, “Neither did this man sin nor his parents, but it happened so that the works of God might be revealed in him.
4 Fòk nou fè zèv a Li menm ki te voye M nan pandan li fè jou. Lannwit lan ap vini lè pèsòn p ap kab travay.
I must do the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work.
5 Pandan Mwen nan lemonn, Mwen se limyè lemonn.”
As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
6 Lè L di sa, Li krache atè, e te fè ajil avèk krache a, e te mete l sou zye li.
After saying this, he spit on the ground and made mud with the saliva. Then he rubbed the mud on the blind man's eyes
7 Li te di l: “Ale lave nan basen Siloé a” (ki te vle di “Ranvoye”). Epi konsa, li te ale lave, e lè l tounen, li te wè.
and said to him, “Go wash in the pool of Siloam” (which means “Sent”). So he went and washed, and came away seeing.
8 Vwazen yo ak sa yo ki te konn wè l lè l te konn mande charite, t ap di, “Se pa li menm ki te konn chita mande a?”
Then his neighbors and those who had previously seen that he was blind were saying, “Is this not the man who used to sit and beg?”
9 Lòt t ap di: “Se li menm”, men lòt toujou te di “Non, men li byen sanble li”. Li menm t ap di toujou, “Mwen menm se li”.
Others were saying, “It is he.” Still others were saying, “He is like him.” But he kept saying, “I am he.”
10 Pou sa yo te di li: “Ebyen, kijan zye ou te louvri?”
So they said to him, “How were yoʋr eyes opened?”
11 Li te reponn yo: “Nonm nan yo rele Jésus a te fè labou epi te fè yon onksyon pou zye m, epi Li di mwen: ‘Ale nan Siloé a epi lave’. Konsa, Mwen te ale lave, epi mwen te wè.”
He answered, “A man named Jesus made mud, rubbed it on my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.’ So I went and washed, and received my sight.”
12 Yo te mande li: “Kote Li?” Li te reponn yo: “Mwen pa konnen”.
They said to him, “Where is this man?” He said, “I do not know.”
13 Yo te mennen sila a ki te avèg la devan Farizyen yo.
So they brought the man who was once blind to the Pharisees.
14 Alò, se te nan jou Saba ke Jésus te fè ajil la e te louvri zye li.
(Now it was a Sabbath when Jesus made the mud and opened the man's eyes.)
15 Ankò konsa, Farizyen yo t ap mande li kijan li te vin wè, epi li te di yo: “Li aplike ajil sou zye m, e mwen te lave, e mwen wè”.
The Pharisees again asked him how he had received his sight, and he said to them, “He put mud on my eyes, and I washed, and now I see.”
16 Pou sa, kèk nan Farizyen yo t ap di: “Nonm sa a pa sòti nan Bondye, paske Li pa kenbe Saba a.” Men lòt t ap di: “Kijan yon mesye ki se yon pechè kapab fè tout mirak sa yo?” Epi te gen yon divizyon pami yo.
Then some of the Pharisees were saying, “This man is not from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath.” But others were saying, “How can a sinful man do such signs?” And a division arose among them.
17 Ankò, yo te di a moun avèg la: “Kisa ou di pou Li, konsi se Li menm ki ouvri zye ou yo?” Li te di: “Li se yon pwofèt.”
So they said to the blind man again, “What do yoʋ say about him, since he opened yoʋr eyes?” The man said, “He is a prophet.”
18 Jwif yo pa t kwè ke li te avèg pou l te vin wè, jis lè yo rele paran a sila a ki te resevwa vizyon li.
Now the Jews did not believe that the man had been blind and had received his sight until they called in his parents.
19 Yo te kesyone yo konsa e te mande: “Èske sa se pitit ou, ke ou di te fèt avèg la? Ebyen, kijan li wè koulye a?”
They asked them, “Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?”
20 Paran li te reponn yo epi te di: “Nou konnen ke sa se pitit nou, e ke li te fèt avèg.
His parents answered them, “We know that this is our son and that he was born blind.
21 Men kijan li wè koulye a, nou pa konnen. Mande li. Li rive sou laj li. Li ka pale pou kont li.”
But how he can now see or who opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age; ask him. He will speak for himself.”
22 Paran li te pale konsa paske yo te krent Jwif yo. Pwiske Jwif yo te deja dakò ke si nenpòt moun te konfese L kon Kris la, yo ta mete l deyò nan sinagòg la.
(His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone should confess that Jesus was the Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.
23 Pou rezon sa a, paran li yo te di: “Li rive sou laj li. Mande li.”
That is why his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.”)
24 Konsa yon dezyèm fwa yo te rele nonm nan ki te avèg la, epi te di li: “Bay glwa a Bondye, nou konnen ke mesye sa a se yon pechè.”
So for a second time they called in the man who had been blind and said to him, “Give glory to God! We know that this man is a sinner.”
25 Pou sa, li reponn yo: “Si L se yon pechè, mwen pa konnen, men yon bagay mwen konnen. Ke m te avèg, e koulye a mwen wè.”
He answered, “Whether he is a sinner or not, I do not know; one thing I know, that though I was blind, now I see.”
26 Yo te mande l konsa: “Kisa Li te fè ou? Kijan Li te ouvri zye ou?”
Again they said to him, “What did he do to yoʋ? How did he open yoʋr eyes?”
27 Li te reponn yo: “Mwen te di nou sa deja, men nou pa t koute m. Poukisa nou vle tande sa ankò? Èske nou vle vin disip Li yo tou?”
He answered them, “I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become his disciples?”
28 Konsa, yo te joure li e te di: “Ou se disip Li, men nou se disip a Moïse.
Then they reviled him and said, “Yoʋ are a disciple of that man, but we are disciples of Moses.
29 Nou konnen ke Bondye te pale a Moïse, men pou mesye sila a, nou pa konnen kote Li sòti.”
We know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, we do not know where he is from.”
30 Mesye a te reponn yo e te di: “Men yon choz byen etonan. Ke nou pa konnen kote Li sòti, men Li te ouvri zye mwen.
The man answered them, “Why, this is an amazing thing, that you do not know where he is from, and yet he opened my eyes!
31 Nou konnen ke Bondye pa tande pechè yo, men si nenpòt moun gen lakrent Bondye, e fè volonte L, l ap koute li.
We know that God does not listen to sinners, but he does listen to anyone who is devout and does his will.
32 Depi kòmansman tan an, nou pa janm tande ke pèsòn ouvri zye a yon moun ki te fèt avèg. (aiōn g165)
Never before has anyone heard of someone opening the eyes of a man born blind. (aiōn g165)
33 Si moun sa a pa t sòti nan Bondye, Li pa t kab fè anyen.”
If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.”
34 Yo te reponn li e te di: “Ou te fèt nèt nan peche! Èske ou ap enstwi nou?” Konsa, yo te mete l deyò.
They answered him, “Yoʋ were born entirely in sin, and yet yoʋ are trying to teach us?” And they threw him out.
35 Jésus te tande ke yo te mete l deyò. E Li te twouve li e te di: “Èske ou kwè nan Fis a Lòm nan?”
Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, so he found the man and said to him, “Do yoʋ believe in the Son of God?”
36 Li te reponn: “Se kilès Li ye, Senyè, pou m kab kwè nan Li?”
He answered, “Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?”
37 Jésus te di li: “Non sèlman ou konn wè L deja, men se Li menm k ap pale avèk ou.”
Jesus said to him, “Yoʋ have seen him, and the one speaking with yoʋ is he.”
38 Li di: “Senyè, mwen kwè!” E li te adore Li.
The man said, “I believe, Lord.” And he worshiped him.
39 Jésus te di: “Pou jijman Mwen te vini nan monn sila a, pou sa yo ki pa wè kapab vin wè, e sa yo ki wè kapab vin avèg.”
Then Jesus said, “For judgment I have come into this world, so that those who do not see may see, and those who see may become blind.”
40 Sila nan Farizyen yo ki te avèk Li te tande bagay sa yo e te di Li: “Èske se nou menm ki avèg tou a?”
Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this and said to him, “We are not also blind, are we?”
41 Jésus te reponn yo: “Si nou te avèg, nou pa t ap gen peche, men akoz ke nou di: ‘Nou wè’, peche nou la toujou.”
Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin, but now you say, ‘We see.’ Therefore your sin remains.
