UJohane 9
1 Wathi esedlula wabona umuntu oyisiphofu kusukela ekuzalweni.
Wakati, kama Yesu bho ip'eta, ambwene munu kipofu kuhomela kuhogoleka kwa muene.
2 Abafundi bakhe basebembuza bathi: Rabi, ngubani owonayo, lo kumbe abazali bakhe, aze azalwe eyisiphofu?
Bhanafunzi bha muene bhakan'kota, “Rabi, niani jha abhombi dhambi, munu ojho au bhazazi bha muene, hata ahogolikayi kipofu?”
3 UJesu waphendula wathi: Konanga lo loba abazali bakhe; kodwa ukuze kubonakaliswe imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu kuye.
Yesu akabhajibu, “Siyo munu ojho wala bhazazi bha muene bhabhabhombi dhambi, bali mbombo sya K'yara sibhwesiajhi kufunulibhwa kup'etela kwa muene.
4 Kufanele ngisebenze imisebenzi yongithumileyo kusesemini; ubusuku buyeza, lapho okungekho olakho ukusebenza khona.
Twilondeka kubhomba mbombo sya muene muene jha anitumili wakati bado pamusi. Kiru kihida wakati ambapo ajhelepi jhaibetakubhwesya kubhomba mbombo.
5 Ngisekhona emhlabeni, ngiyikukhanya komhlaba.
Wakati nje ku bhulimwengu, nene ne nuru jha ulimwengu.”
6 Esetshilo lezizinto, wakhafulela emhlabathini, wenza udaka ngamathe, waninda loludaka emehlweni esiphofu,
Baada jha Yesu kujobha malobhi agha afunyili palifu, abhombi bhudopi kwa mata ni kumbaka munu jhola pamihu ni bhud'opi bhola.
7 wasesithi kuso: Hamba uyegeza echibini leSilowama (okuphendulelwa ngokuthi, oThunyiweyo). Ngakho sahamba sageza, sabuya sesibona.
Akan'jobhela, lotayi kujhogha mu kisima kya Siloam (Jhajhitafsiribhwa kama 'jhaatumibhu').” Henu munu ojhu alotili, akasamba, ni kukerebhuka, ilola.
8 Ngakho abakhelene laso lalabo ababesibonile ngaphambili ukuthi sasiyisiphofu, bathi: Kayisuye yini lo owayehlezi ephanza?
Majirani bha munu jhola ni bhala bhabhambwene kubhwandelu kama n'somaji bhajobhili, Je! ojho si jhola jhaatamaghe ni kus'oma?” bhangi bhakajobha,
9 Abanye bathi: Lo nguye; kodwa abanye bathi: Unjengaye. Yena wathi: Nginguye.
“Lepi, bali iwaningana naku.” Lakini akajha ijobha, “Ndo nene.”
10 Ngakho bathi kuye: Avulwe njani amehlo akho?
Bhakan'jobhela, “Henu mihu gha jhobhi ghafungulibhu bhuli?”
11 Yena waphendula wathi: Umuntu othiwa nguJesu wenze udaka, waninda amehlo ami, wathi kimi: Hamba uye echibini leSilowama, ugeze. Njalo ngahamba ngageza, ngabuye ngabona.
Ajibili, munu jhaikutibhwa Yesu, abhombili bhudopi ni kubaka pa mihu ghangu ni kunijobhela, 'Nilotayi Siloam ukasambayi.' Henu nikalota, ni kusamba, na nikajhanilola kabhele.”
12 Ngakho bathi kuye: Ungaphi yena? Wathi: Kangazi.
Bhakan'jobhela, “Ajhendaku?” Ajibili, “Ndesi.”
13 Basebemletha kubaFarisi, lowo owayekade eyisiphofu.
Bhakampeleka munu jhola jha ajhele kipofu kwa Mafarisayo.
14 Njalo kwakulisabatha mhla uJesu esenza udaka, evula amehlo akhe.
Nijhiene jha ajhele ligono lya Sabato wakati Yesu bho atendekisi bhodopi ni kughafumbula mihu gha muene.
15 AbaFarisi labo basebembuza futhi, ukuthi wemukele njani ukubona. Wasesithi kubo: Ufake udaka emehlweni ami, ngasengigeza, sengibona.
Ndipo kabhele Mafarisayo bhakan'kota abhwesibhuli kulola. Akabhajobhela, “Abhekili bhudopi mu mihu ghangu nikasamba na henu nibhwesya kulola.”
16 Ngakho abanye babaFarisi bathi: Lumuntu kaveli kuNkulunkulu, ngoba kagcini isabatha. Abanye bathi: Umuntu oyisoni angazenza njani izibonakaliso ezinje? Kwasekusiba khona ukwehlukana phakathi kwabo.
Baadhi jha Mafarisayo bhakajobha, “Munu ojho ahomilepi kwa K'yara kwandabha aikamuililepi Sabato.” Bhangi bhakajobha, “Jhibhwesekana bhuli munu jha ajhe ni dhambi kubhomba ishara kama esu?” Henu kukajhe ni mgabhwanyiku kati jha bhene.
17 Baphinda bathi kuso isiphofu: Wena uthini ngaye, lokhu evule amehlo akho? Wasesithi: Ungumprofethi.
Ndipo bhan'kotili jhola kipofu kabhele, “Ghwijobhuli juu jha muene kwandabha aghafunguili mihu gha jhobhi?” Kipofu akajobha, “Nabii.”
18 AmaJuda-ke kawakholwanga ngaye, ukuthi wayeyisiphofu usemukele ukubona, aze abiza abazali bakhe osebuye wabona,
Hata wakati obhu bhayahudi bhan'kyeriri lepi kujha ajhele kipofu ni muene ibhwesya kulola mpaka bhakabhakuta bhazazi bha muene jha abhwesi kulola.
19 asebabuza athi: Lo uyindodana yenu, lina elithi yazalwa iyisiphofu yini? Pho isibona njani khathesi?
Bhakabhakota bhazazi, Je, ojho mwanabhinu jha mwijobha ahogoliki kipofu? abhwesibhuli henu kulola?”
20 Abazali bakhe bawaphendula bathi: Siyazi ukuthi lo uyindodana yethu, lokuthi wazalwa eyisiphofu;
Hivyo bhazazi bha muene bhakan'jibu, “Tumanyili kujha ahogoliki kipofu.
21 kodwa ukuthi ubona njani khathesi, kasikwazi; kumbe ngubani ovule amehlo akhe, thina kasikwazi; yena usekhulile; mbuzeni, uzazikhulumela yena.
Jinsi gani henu ilola, tumanyi lepi ni muene jha amfumbuili mihu gha muene, tumanyililepi. Mun'kotayi muene. Nyuluala. Ibhwesya kwijhe lesya muene.”
22 Abazali bakhe batsho lezizinto, ngoba besesaba amaJuda; ngoba amaJuda ayesevumelene ngokuthi, uba loba engubani ovuma ukuthi unguKristu, kakhutshwe esinagogeni.
Bhazazi bha muene bhajobhili mambo agha, kwa ndabha bhabhatilili Bhayahudi. Kwa vile Bhayahudi bhajhele bha kubaliene tayari kujha, ikajhiayi jhejhioha ibetakukiri kujha Yesu ndo Kristu, ibetakutengibhwa ni Sinagogi.
23 Kungakho abazali bakhe bathi: Usekhulile, mbuzeni.
Kwa ndabha ejhe, bhazazi bha muene bhakajobha, “Munu nnyuluala, munkotayi muene.”
24 Ambiza-ke ngokwesibili lowomuntu owayeyisiphofu, athi kuye: Phana uNkulunkulu udumo; thina siyazi ukuthi lowomuntu uyisoni.
Henu kwa mara jha pili, bhakankuta munu jhola jha ajhele kipofu ni kun'jobhela, Mpelayi K'yara bhutukufu. Tumanyili munu ojho ajhe ni dhambi.”
25 Yena wasephendula esithi: Loba eyisoni kangazi, kunye engikwaziyo, ukuthi bengiyisiphofu, khathesi sengibona.
Ndipo munu jhola akajibu, “Ajhelayi ni dhambi, nenimanyilepi. Khenu kimonga kya nikimanyili: najhele kipofu, ni henu nilola.”
26 Asesithi kuye futhi: Wenzeni kuwe? Uwavule njani amehlo akho?
Ndipo bhakan'jobhela, “Akubhombili kiki? Aghafumbuili bhuli mihu gha jhobhi?”
27 Wawaphendula wathi: Sengilitshelile, kodwa kalizwanga, lifunelani ukuzwa futhi? Liyafisa lani ukuba ngabafundi bakhe yini?
Ajibili, “Nimalikubhajobhela tayari, ni muenga mup'elekisilepi! kwa ndajhakiki mwilonda kup'eleka kabhele? namu mwilonda lepi kujha bhanafunzi bha muene pia, sivyo?
28 Ngakho amthuka, esithi: Nguwe ongumfundi wakhe; kodwa thina singabafundi bakaMozisi.
Bhandighili ni kujobha, “Bhebhe ghwe mwanafunzi ghwa muene, lakini tete bhanafunzi bha Musa.
29 Thina siyazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu wakhuluma loMozisi; kodwa lo kasimazi lapho avela khona.
Tumanyili kujha K'yara alongili ni Mussa, lakini kwa munu ojho, tumanyili lepi kwa ihomela.”
30 Umuntu waphendula wathi kuwo: Ngoba kulokhu kuyisimanga ukuthi lina kalimazi lapho avela khona, kanti uvule amehlo ami.
Munu jhola akajibu ni kubhajobhela, “Kwa ndabha jha kiki, ele lijambo lya kusyangasya, kwamba mumanyilepi kwaihomela, na bado aghafumbuili mihu ghangu.
31 Njalo siyazi ukuthi uNkulunkulu kazizwa izoni; kodwa uba umuntu engokhonza uNkulunkulu, esenza intando yakhe, uyamuzwa lowo.
Tumanyili kujha K'yara akabhap'elekesya lepi bhenye dhambi, lakini ikajhiajhi munu jhejhioha ikamwabudu K'yara na ibhomba mapenzi gha muene, K'yara akamp'elekesya.
Kuh'omela kujhanda kwa ulimwengu jhibhwayilepi kamwe kupelekibhwa kujha jhejhioha jhaifumbula mihu gha munu jha ahogoliki kipofu. (aiōn g165)
33 Uba lo ubengaveli kuNkulunkulu, ubengebe lamandla okwenza ulutho.
Ikajhiayi munu ojho ahomilepi kwa K'yara, ngaabhombilepi kyokyoha.”
34 Aphendula athi kuye: Wena wazalelwa esonweni ngokupheleleyo, njalo wena uyasifundisa yini? Asemxotshela phandle.
Bhajibili ni kun'jobhela, “Ghwahogoliki ni dhambi kabisa, ni bhebhe ukatumanyisya tete?” Ndipo bhamb'engili mu sinagogi.
35 UJesu wezwa ukuthi amxotshele phandle; kwathi esemficile, wathi kuye: Wena uyakholwa yini eNdodaneni kaNkulunkulu?
Yesu ap'eliki kujha bhabhosili mu sinagogi. Akan'kabhili ni kun'jobhela, “Ukan'kiera Muana ghwa Munu?”
36 Yena waphendula wathi: Ingubani, Nkosi, ukuze ngikholwe kuyo?
Ajibili ni kujobha, “Niani, Bwana, ili nani nikabhayi kun'kiera?”
37 UJesu wasesithi kuye: Lawe usuyibonile, njalo okhuluma lawe uyiyo.
Yesu akabhajobhela, “Umbwene, nu ndo jha ilongela naku.”
38 Wasesithi: Nkosi, ngiyakholwa; wasemkhonza.
Jhola munu akajobha, “Bwana, Nikiera.” Ndipo akan'sujudila.
39 UJesu wasesithi: Mina ngizele ukwahlulela kulumhlaba, ukuze abangaboniyo babone, lalabo ababonayo babe yiziphofu.
Yesu akajobha, “Kwa hukumu nihidili mu ulimwengu obho ili kwamba bhala bhabhilola lepi bhabhwesiajhi kulola ni bhala bha bhibhona bhajhelayi fipofu,”
40 Lalabo kubaFarisi ababelaye bezwa lezizinto, bathi kuye: Lathi siyiziphofu yini?
Baadhi jha Mafarisayo bhajhele pamonga ni muene bhakapeleka malobhi aghu ni kun'kota, “Nitete fipofu?”
41 UJesu wathi kubo: Uba beliyiziphofu, ngabe kalilasono. Kodwa khathesi lithi: Siyabona; ngakho isono senu simi.
Yesu akabhajobhela, “Kama ngamujhele fipofu, ngamujhelepi ni dhambi. Hata naha, henu mwijobha, 'Mwilola,' dhambi jha muenga jhitama.”
