< यूहन्ना 9 >
1 येशू त्यही बाटो हुँदै जानुहुँदा जन्मैदेखिको एक जना मानिसलाई देख्नुभयो ।
As He passed by, He saw a man who had been blind from his birth.
2 उहाँका चेलाहरूले उहाँलाई सोधे, “रब्बी, यो मानिस, कि यसका आमाबुबा कसले पाप गर्यो र यो अन्धो जन्मिएको?”
So His disciples asked Him, "Rabbi, who sinned--this man or his parents--that he was born blind?"
3 येशूले जवाफ दिनुभयो, “न त यो मानिसले पाप गर्यो, न यसका आमाबुबाले नै पाप गरे, तर परमेश्वरको काम त्यसमा प्रकट होस् भनेर यसो भएको हो ।
"Neither he nor his parents sinned," answered Jesus, "but he was born blind in order that God's mercy might be openly shown in him.
4 मलाई पठाउनुहुनेका कामहरू हामीले दिन हुँदै गर्नुपर्छ । रात आउँदै छ, तब कसैले पनि काम गर्न सक्दैन ।
We must do the works of Him who sent me while there is daylight. Night is coming on, when no one can work.
5 म संसारमा हुँदा म संसारको ज्योति हुँ ।”
When I am in the world, I am the Light of the world."
6 येशूले यी कुराहरू भनिसक्नुभएपछि उहाँले भुइँमा थुक्नुभयो र थुकले माटो मुछ्नुभयो, अनि त्यसको आँखामा पोतिदिनुभयो ।
After thus speaking, He spat on the ground, and then, kneading the dust and spittle into clay, He smeared the clay over the man's eyes and said to him,
7 उहाँले त्यसलाई भन्नुभयो, “जाऊ, सिलोआमको तलाउमा धोऊ (जसको अर्थ हुन्छ, ‘पठाइएको ।’) । त्यसैले त्यो गयो, धोयो र देख्ने भएर आयो ।
"Go and wash in the pool of Siloam" --the name means 'Sent.' So he went and washed his eyes, and returned able to see.
8 त्यसपछि त्यसका छिमेकीहरू र त्यसलाई पहिला भिखारीको रूपमा देख्नेहरूले भने, “त्यो बसेर भिख माग्ने गर्ने के यही नै होइन?”
His neighbours, therefore, and the other people to whom he had been a familiar object because he was a beggar, began asking, "Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?"
9 केहीले भने, “यही हो ।” अरूहरूले भने, “होइन, यो त्यहीजस्तो देखिन्छ ।” तर त्यसले भन्यो, “म त्यही हुँ ।”
"Yes it is," replied some of them. "No it is not," said others, "but he is like him." His own statement was, "I am the man."
10 तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई भने, “अनि तिम्रा आँखा कसरी खोलिए त?”
"How then were your eyes opened?" they asked.
11 त्यसले जवाफ दियो, “येशू भनिने मानिसले माटो मुछ्नुभयो, मेरो आँखामा पोतिदिनुभयो र मलाई भन्नुभयो ‘सिलोआममा जाऊ र धोऊ ।’ त्यसकारण म गएँ र धोएँ अनि मैले मेरो दृष्टि पाएँ ।”
"He whose name is Jesus," he answered, "made clay and smeared my eyes with it, and then told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed and obtained sight."
12 तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई भने, “उनी कहाँ छन्?” उसले जवाफ दियो, “मलाई थाहा छैन ।”
"Where is he?" they inquired, but the man did not know.
13 तिनीहरूले पहिले अन्धो भएको त्यो मानिसलाई फरिसीहरूकहाँ ल्याए ।
They brought him to the Pharisees--the man who had been blind.
14 येशूले माटो मुछेर त्यसको आँखामा खोल्नुभएको दिन विश्रामको दिन थियो ।
Now the day on which Jesus made the clay and opened the man's eyes was the Sabbath.
15 तब त्यसले त्यसका दृष्टि कसरी प्राप्त गरेका थिए भनी फरिसीहरूले फेरि सोधे? त्यसले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “उहाँले मेरा आँखामा हिलो लगाई दिनुभयो, मैले धोएँ र अहिले म देख्न सक्छु ।”
So the Pharisees renewed their questioning as to how he had obtained his sight. "He put clay on my eyes," he replied, "and I washed, and now I can see."
16 केही फरिसीहरूले भने, “यो मानिस परमेश्वरबाट आएको होइन, किनकि यसले विश्राम दिन पालना गर्दैन ।” अरूहरूले भने, “एउटा पापी मानिसले यस्ता चिह्नहरू कसरी गर्न सक्छ?” त्यसैले, तिनीहरूका बिचमा विभाजन आयो ।
This led some of the Pharisees to say, "That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath." "How is it possible for a bad man to do such miracles?" argued others.
17 त्यसकारण, तिनीहरूले त्यो अन्धो मानिसलाई फेरि सोधे, “उसको विषयमा तिमी के भन्छौ, किनकि उसले तिम्रा आँखा खोलिदियो?” अन्धो मानिसले भन्यो, “उहाँ एक अगमवक्ता हुनुहुन्छ ।”
And there was a division among them. So again they asked the once blind man, "What is your account of him? --for he opened your eyes." "He is a Prophet," he replied.
18 यहूदीहरूले आफ्नो दृष्टि प्राप्त गर्नेका आमाबुबालाई नबोलाएसम्म त्यो अन्धो थियो, र त्यसले दृष्टि प्राप्त गरेको थियो भन्ने तिनीहरूले अझै विश्वास गरेनन् ।
The Jews, however, did not believe the statement concerning him--that he had been blind and had obtained his sight--until they called his parents and asked them,
19 तिनीहरूले आमाबुबालाई सोधे, “तिमीहरूले जन्मिँदै अन्धो थियो भनेका तिमीहरूका छोरो के यही हो? अनि अहिले यसले कसरी देख्छ त?”
"Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How is it then that he can now see?"
20 त्यसैले, त्यसका आमाबुबाले तिनीहरूलाई जवाफ दिए, “यो हाम्रो छोरो हो, र यो जन्मिँदै अन्धो थियो भनी हामी जान्दछौँ ।
"We know," replied the parents, "that this is our son and that he was born blind;
21 अहिले यसले कसरी देख्छ, हामी जान्दैनौँ, र यसका आँखा कसले खोलिदियो सो पनि हामी जन्दैनौँ । यसैलाई सोध्नुहोस्, यो वयस्क मानिस हो । यसले आफ्नो विषयमा आफैँ बोल्न सक्छ ।
but how it is that he can now see or who has opened his eyes we do not know. Ask him himself; he is of full age; he himself will give his own account of it."
22 त्यसका आमाबुबाले यी कुराहरू भने, किनभने तिनीहरू यहूदीहरूसँग डराएका थिए । यदि कसैले येशूलाई ख्रीष्ट भनी स्वीकार गरे भने तिनीहरूलाई सभाघरबाट बाहिर निकालिनेछन् भनी यहूदीहरू अगिबाटै सहमत भएका थिए ।
Such was their answer, because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had already settled among themselves that if any one should acknowledge Jesus as the Christ, he should be excluded from the synagogue.
23 त्यसैले गर्दा त्यसका आमाबुबाले “यो वयस्क मानिस हो, त्यसैलाई सोध्नुहोस्” भने ।
That was why his parents said, "He is of full age: ask him himself."
24 त्यसैले, जो पहिला अन्धो थियो त्यो मानिसलाई तिनीहरूले दोस्रो पटक बोलाए, र त्यसलाई भने, “परमेश्वरलाई महिमा दे । हामी जान्दछौँ यो मानिस पापी हो ।”
A second time therefore they called the man who had been blind, and said, "Give God the praise: we know that that man is a sinner."
25 तब त्यो मानिसले जवाफ दियो, “उहाँ पापी हुनुहुन्छ कि हुनुहुन्न, म जान्दिनँ । तर म एउटा कुरो जान्दछुः म अन्धो थिएँ र अहिले म देख्छु ।”
"Whether he is a sinner or not, I do not know," he replied; "one thing I know--that I was once blind and that now I can see."
26 तब तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई भने, “उसले तिम्रो निम्ति के गर्यो? उसले तिम्रा आँखा कसरी खोलिदिए?”
"What did he do to you?" they asked; "how did he open your eyes?"
27 त्यसले जवाफ दियो, “मैले तपाईंहरूलाई पहिले नै बताइसकेँ, अनि तपाईंहरूले सुन्नुभएन । तपाईंहरू यसलाई फेरि किन सुन्न चाहनुहुन्छ? तपाईंहरू त उहाँका चेलाहरू बन्न चाहनुहुन्न, चाहनुहुन्छ त?
"I have told you already," he replied, "and you did not listen to me. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also mean to be disciples of his?"
28 तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई अपमान गरे, र भने, “तँ पो उसको चेला होस्, तर हामी त मोशाका चेलाहरू हौँ ।
Then they railed at him, and said, "You are that man's disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
29 हामी जान्दछौँ, कि परमेश्वर मोशासँग बोल्नुभयो, तर यो मानिस कहाँबाट आएको हो, हामी जान्दैनौँ ।”
We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this fellow we do not know where he comes from."
30 त्यो मानिसले तिनीहरूलाई जवाफ दिए, र भने, “उहाँले मेरा आँखा खोलिदिनुभो, तैपनि उहाँ कहाँबाट आउनुभएको तपाईंहरू जान्नुहुन्न, यो त अचम्म भो!
"Why, this is marvellous!" the man replied; "you do not know where he comes from, and yet he has opened my eyes!
31 हामी जान्दछौँ, कि परमेश्वरले पापीहरूको कुरा सुन्नुहुन्न, तर यदि कोही भक्त हो, र उहाँको इच्छा पुरा गर्छ भने उहाँले त्यसको कुरा सुन्नुहुन्छ ।
We know that God does not listen to bad people, but that if any one is a God-fearing man and obeys Him, to him He listens.
32 संसारको सुरु भएदेखि नै अन्धो जन्मिएको मानिसका आँखा कसैले खोलिदिएको कुरो कहिल्यै सुनिएको छैन । (aiōn )
From the beginning of the world such a thing was never heard of as that any one should open the eyes of a man blind from his birth. (aiōn )
33 यदि यो मानिस परमेश्वरबाट आएको होइन भने उहाँले केही पनि गर्न सक्नुहुन्नथ्यो ।”
Had that man not come from God, he could have done nothing."
34 तिनीहरूले जवाफ दिए र त्यसलाई भने, “तँ पूर्ण रूपमा पापमा जन्मेको थिइस् र हामीलाई सिकाउँदै छस्?” त्यसपछि तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई सभाघरबाट बाहिर निकालिदिए ।
"You," they replied, "were wholly begotten and born in sin, and do you teach us?" And they put him out of the synagogue.
35 तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई सभाघरबाट बाहिर निकालिदिए भन्ने येशूले सुन्नुभयो । उहाँले त्यसलाई भेटाउनुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “के तिमी मानिसका पुत्रमा विश्वास गर्छौ?”
Jesus heard that they had done this. So having found him, He asked him, "Do you believe in the Son of God?"
36 त्यसले जवाफ दियो, र भन्यो, “प्रभु, उहाँ को हुनुहुन्छ, कि मैले विश्वास गर्न सकौँ?”
"Who is He, Sir?" replied the man. "Tell me, so that I may believe in Him."
37 येशूले त्यसलाई भन्नुभयो, “तिमीले उसलाई देखेका छौ, तिमीसँग बोल्दै गर्ने उही हो ।”
"You have seen Him," said Jesus; "and not only so: He is now speaking to you."
38 त्यो मानिसले भन्यो, “प्रभु, म विश्वास गर्छु” तब त्यसले उहाँको आराधना गर्यो ।
"I believe, Sir," he said. And he threw himself at His feet.
39 येशूले भन्नुभयो, “न्यायको निम्ति म यस संसारमा आएँ, ताकि जसले देख्दैनन् तिनीहरूले देखून् र जसले देख्छन्, तिनीहरू अन्धो होऊन् ।”
"I came into this world," said Jesus, "to judge men, that those who do not see may see, and that those who do see may become blind."
40 उहाँसँग हुने केही फरिसीहरूले यी कुराहरू सुने र उहाँलाई सोधे, “के हामी पनि अन्धा हौँ त?”
These words were heard by those of the Pharisees who were present, and they asked Him, "Are we also blind?"
41 येशूले तिनीहरूलाई भन्नुभयो, “यदि तिमीहरू अन्धा भएका भए तिमीहरूमा कुनै पाप हुने थिएन, तर तिमीहरू ‘हामीले देख्छौँ’ भन्छौ, त्यसैले तिमीहरूमा पाप रहन्छ ।
"If you were blind," answered Jesus, "you would have no sin; but as a matter of fact you boast that you see. So your sin remains!"
