Jaona 9
1 Ie niary mb’eo, le nahavazoho ty lahilahy fey, nigoa boak’ amy t’ie nitoly.
As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth.
2 Le hoe ty ontane’ o mpiama’eo: O Talè, ia ty nanao tahiñe: ondatio, ke o roae’eo te ie nisamake goa?
His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”
3 Tinoi’ Iesoà ty hoe: Tsy te aman-kakeo t’indaty tia, ndra o roae’eo, fa te haboak’ añama’e ty fitoloñan’ Añahare.
Jesus answered, “This man did not sin, nor did his parents, but that the works of God might be revealed in him.
4 Tsy mahay tsy manao ty fitoloña’ i nañitrik’ ahiy tikañe ie mbe antoandro, fa ho avy ty haleñe tsy hahafitoloña’ ondaty.
I must work the works of him who sent me while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.
5 Kanao mbe ami’ty voatse toy iraho, le izaho ro failo’ ty voatse toy.
While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
6 Ie nanao izay, le nandrora an-tane, le nilitsahe’e i fañerè’ey vaho natente’e am-pihaino’e eo i litsakey.
When he had said this, he spat on the ground, made mud with the saliva, anointed the blind man’s eyes with the mud,
7 Le hoe re ama’e: Akia, misasà añ’ antara’ i Siloama (ze midika ‘niraheñe’). Aa le niheo mb’eo re nisasa, vaho nahaisake te nibalike.
and said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which means “Sent”). So he went away, washed, and came back seeing.
8 Hoe o mparine azeo naho ze mpahaisak’ aze ie mbe nimpangatake: Tsy itoy hao i mpangatake nitozòkey?
Therefore the neighbors and those who saw that he was blind before said, “Is not this he who sat and begged?”
9 Ty ila’e nanao ty hoe: Ie ‘nio. Hoe ka ty ila’e: Aiy! hambañ’ ama’e. Hoe re: Ie iraho.
Others were saying, “It is he.” Still others were saying, “He looks like him.” He said, “I am he.”
10 Aa le hoe iareo tama’e: Aa vaho inoñe ty nampibarababeake o maso’oo?
They therefore were asking him, “How were your eyes opened?”
11 Nanoiñe ty hoe re: Nikineke litsake t’indaty itokavañe ty hoe Iesoà, le nafò’e amo masokoo vaho nanao amako ty hoe: Akia mb’añ’antara’ i Siloama añe le misasà. Aa le nomb’eo iraho nisasa, vaho mahatrea.
He answered, “A man called Jesus made mud, anointed my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.’ So I went away and washed, and I received sight.”
12 Le hoe iereo tama’e: Aia re? Nofiko, hoe re.
Then they asked him, “Where is he?” He said, “I do not know.”
13 Nindese’ iereo mb’amo Fariseoo mb’eo indaty nigoay.
They brought him who had been blind to the Pharisees.
14 Sabotse ‘nio i andro nanoe’ Iesoà i litsakey naho nampibeake o fihaino’eoy.
It was a Sabbath when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.
15 Mbe nañontanea’ o Fariseoo indraike i nahaisaha’e. Le hoe re tam’iereo: Nifora’e litsake o masokoo naho nisasa iraho vaho mahatrea.
Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. He said to them, “He put mud on my eyes, I washed, and I see.”
16 Le hoe ty asa’ o Fariseo ila’eo: Tsy aman’ Añahare indatiy kanao tsy ambena’e i Sabatay. Hoe ka ty ila’e: Aia, ty hahatafetera’ ty mpanan-kakeo raha tsitantane hoe itia? Le nifampiria iareo.
Some therefore of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, because he does not keep the Sabbath.” Others said, “How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?” So there was division among them.
17 Aa hoe iereo amy nigoay: Ino ty ho talilie’o aze, ie nanokake o maso’oo? Le hoe re: Mpitoky reke.
Therefore they asked the blind man again, “What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?” He said, “He is a prophet.”
18 Fe tsy niantofa’ o Tehodao t’ie nigoa vaho nampahaisaheñe, naho tsy kinanji’ iareo hey ty roae’ i nampahatreavañey
The Jews therefore did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him who had received his sight,
19 vaho nañontane iareo ty hoe: Ana’ areo v’itoio, i natao’ areo te nitoly goay? Akore ty ahatreava’e henanekeo?
and asked them, “Is this your son, whom you say was born blind? How then does he now see?”
20 Le hoe ty natoin-droae’e: Apota’ay te ana’ay toke naho t’ie nitoly goa;
His parents answered them, “We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
21 fe amoea’ay ty ahatreava’e henaneo, tsy fohi’ay ty nampibarababeak’ aze. Añon-taon-dre, añontaneo, ie ro hitalily vatañe.
but how he now sees, we do not know; or who opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself.”
22 Izay i sinaontsin-droae’ey amy te nihembañe amo Tehodao, ami’ty nifañinà’ o Tehodao te haitoañe amo fitontonañeo ze miantoke t’ie i Norizañey.
His parents said these things because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if any man would confess him as Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.
23 Izay ty nanoan-droae’e ty hoe: Añon-taon-dre, añontaneo.
Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”
24 Kinanji’ iereo fañindroe’e indaty nigoay, le nanoa’ iareo ty hoe: Toloro engeñe t’i Andrianañahare; fohi’ay te bey hakeo indatiy.
So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”
25 Hoe ty natoi’e: Ke bey hakeo re, tsy apotako. Raha raike ty fantako: nigoa iraho, fa mahatrea.
He therefore answered, “I do not know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”
26 Nindrai’ iareo ontane: Ino ty nanoe’e ama’o? Akore ty nampibarababeahe’e o maso’oo?
They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”
27 Tinoi’e ty hoe, Fa vinolako! f’ie tsy nitsendreñe, ino ty hijanjiña’ areo indraike? va’e te ho mpiama’e ka?
He answered them, “I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You do not also want to become his disciples, do you?”
28 Aa le nonjire’ iereo, ami’ty hoe: Ihe ro mpiam’ indatiy! mpiamy Mosè zahay.
They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
29 Fohi’ay te nisaontsien’ Añahare t’i Mosè, fe ondaty zao, nofi’ay ty nihirifa’e.
We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we do not know where he comes from.”
30 Tinoi’ i lahiy ty hoe: Hete! mahavereñe te tsy fohi’ areo ty nihirifa’e, f’ie nampibeak’ o masokoo!
The man answered them, “How amazing! You do not know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes.
31 Fohintika te tsy mijanjiñe ty bey hakeo t’i Andrianañahare fe naho mitalaho aman’ Añahare t’indaty naho manao ty satrin’ arofo’e, le janji’e.
We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does his will, he listens to him.
32 Boak’ami’ty fifotoran-tsa, mbe tsy nijanjiñeñe te nampibarababeaheñe t’indaty toly goa. (aiōn g165)
From the age (aiōn g165) it has never been heard of that anyone opened the eyes of someone born blind.
33 Aa naho tsy mpiaman’ Añahare indatiy, tsy ho nahatafete-draha.
If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.”
34 Hoe ty natoi’ iareo aze, Fonitse hakeo irehe te nitoly, ihe ka ty mañòke anay? Le sinoi’ iereo añe.
They answered him, “You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?” Then they threw him out.
35 Jinanji’ Iesoà te rinoa’ iereo, le hoe re t’ie nitendreke, Atokisa’o hao i ana’ Ondatiy?
Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding him, he said, “Do you believe in the Son of God?”
36 Tinoi’e ty hoe: Ia v’izay, Talè? hatokisako.
He answered, “Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?”
37 Hoe t’Iesoà tama’e: Fa niisa’o, mbore ie o mirehak’ ama’oo.
Jesus said to him, “You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you.”
38 Le hoe re: O Rañandria, miantoke iraho! Le niambanea’e.
He said, “Lord, I believe!” and he worshiped him.
39 Le hoe t’Iesoà: Zaka ty nombàko mb’ami’ty voatse toy hampahaisake o tsy mahaoniñeo, vaho hampigoa o mahaisakeo.
Jesus said, “I came into this world for judgment, that those who do not see may see; and that those who see may become blind.”
40 Nanoa’ o Fariseo nindre ama’e naho nahajanjiñe i hoe zaio, ty hoe: Goa ka v’izahay?
Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, “Are we also blind?”
41 Hoe t’Iesoà am’iereo: Tsy ho nanan-kakeo nahareo naho nifey; f’ie nanao ty hoe: Mahatrea zahay; le mbe tambatse an-kakeo.
Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, ‘We see.’ Therefore your sin remains.
