Yohani 9
1 Yesu pakaweriti kankupita, kamwoniti muntu yumu kana lwisi kwanjira kwiwuka.
As Jesus passed along, he saw a man who had been born blind.
2 Wafundwa wakuwi wamkosiya, “mfunda! Hashi, gaa ndo yakatenda vidoda vyavimtenda muntu ayu kayiwuki pakawera lwisi? Hashi, vidoda vyakuwi mweni ama vidoda vya walera wakuwi?”
And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned: this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3 Yesu kankula, “Shitwatila ashi shilawira ndiri toziya ya vidoda vyakuwi yomberi, ama vidoda vya walelwa wakuwi, ira kiwuka lwisi su makakala ga Mlungu gawonikani gatenda lihengu mwakuwi.
Jesus answered, Neither this man nor his parents sinned. It was only that the works of God might be displayed upon him.
4 Kuweri kwankali paliwala tufiruwa kwendeleya kutenda lihengu lya uliya yakantumiti, mana pashiru peni pakwiza muntu hapeni kawezi kutenda lihengu.
I must do the work of him who sent me, while it is day; the night comes, when no man can work.
5 Shipindi nankali pasipanu, neni ndo gulangala gwa pasi panu.”
While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 Pakatakuliti kala aga, katema mata pasi, kalitenda linkandiga, kamswagaziya mumasu ulii yakawera na lwisi,
Having said this, he spit upon the ground, and with the clay, which he made with the spittle, anointed the blind man's eyes,
7 kamgambira, “Gugendi na gukalifyankuli palitanda lya Silowamu.” Mana ya litawu ali ndo “Yawamtumiti”. Muntu kana lwisi uliya kagenda na kulifyankula kulitanda lya Siloam, shakapanu kawuya pakawera kankuwona.
and said to him, Go wash in the pool of Siloam, (which signifies Sent.) He went, therefore, and washed them, and returned seeing.
8 Su, wapakwegera wakuwi na walii yawaweriti wavimana handa kaweriti muhushu mluwa, walonga, “Hashi, ayu ndiri uliya muhushu yakaweriti pakalivaga na kuluwa luwa?”
Then the neighbors, and they who had before seen him blind, said, Is not this he who sat and begged?
9 Wamonga pawatakula, “Ndomweni.” Wantu wamu watakula, “ndala! Ira kalifana nayomberi.” Uliya yakaweriti lwisi katakula, “Ndo neni!”
Some said, It is he; others, He is like him. He said, I am he.
10 Wamkosiya, “Vinu, masu gakuwi gapata hashi kutumula?”
They asked him, then, How did you receive your sight?
11 Nayomberi kawankula, “Muntu uliya yawamshema Yesu katenditi linkandiga, kaswagaziya mumasu na kung'ambira, ‘Gugendi gwakalifyankuli palitanda lya Silowamu,’ su neni ng'enda, nulifyankula sheni shangu, mpata kwona.”
He answered, A man called Jesus, made clay and anointed my eyes, and said to me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash your eyes. I went accordingly, and washed them, and saw.
12 Wamkosia, “Yomberi ka koshi?” Nayomberi kawankula, “Neni nuvimana ndiri!”
Then they asked him, Where is he? He answered, I know not.
13 Shakapanu wamjega muntu uliya yakaweriti kana lwisi kwa Mafalisayu.
Then they brought him, who had been blind, to the Pharisees;
14 Lishaka ali Yesu pakatenditi linkandiga na kumtumuziya masu muntu ayu, iweriti Lishaka lya kwoyera.
(now it was on a Sabbath, that Jesus made the clay, and gave him his sight.)
15 Mafalisayu wamkosiya kayi muntu ayu, “Gupata hashi kwona?” Nayomberi kawagambira, “Kantyeremeka linkandiga mumasu, naneni nulifyankula sheni shangu, vinu weza kwona.”
The Pharisees likewise, therefore, asked him how he had received his sight. He answered, He put clay on my eyes, and I washed them, and now see.
16 Mafalisayu wamu walonga, “Muntu kantenditi hangu hapeni kalawi kwa Mlungu, toziya kajimira ndiri malagaliru ga Lishaka lya kwoyera.” Kumbiti wamonga walonga, “Muntu kana vidoda kaweza hashi kutenda liuzauza lya ntambu ayi?” Kuwera na malekaniru pakati pawu.
Upon this some of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, for he observes not the Sabbath. Others said, How can one that is a sinner perform such miracles? And they were divided among themselves.
17 Mafalisayu wamkosiya kayi muntu ayu, “Yomberi kagagubutula masu, gutakula shishi kwa yomberi?” Muntu uliya kawagambira, “Yomberi ndo mbuyi gwa Mlungu!”
Again they asked the man, who had been blind, What do you say of him, for giving you sight? He answered, He is a prophet.
18 Wakulu wa Shiyawudi wajimira ndiri handa muntu ayu kaweriti lwisi na vinu kankuwona mpaka pawawashemiti walera wakuwi
But the Jews believed not that the man had been blind, and had received his sight; till they called his parents,
19 na wawakosiya walera awa, “Hashi, ayu mwana gwenu ndo mwenga mlonga kiwukiti lwisi? Hashi vinu kapata kwona?”
and asked them, Do you say, that this is your son, who was born blind? How, then, does he now see?
20 Walera wakuwi wankula, “Tuvimana handa ayu ndo mwana gwetu na kiwukiti lwisi.
His parents answered, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
21 Kumbiti kapata hashi kwona, hapeni tuvimani na wala tuvimana ndiri uliya yakamtumuziyiti masu. Mumkosiyi mweni, yomberi ndo muntu mkulu, kaweza kulitakulira mweni.”
but how he now sees, or who opened his eyes, we know not. He is of age, ask him; he will answer for himself.
22 Walera wakuwi walongiti hangu toziya wawatiriti wakolamlima wa Shiyawudi, kwani wakolamlima awa waweriti waliragilirana handa muntu yoseri yakamini handa Yesu ndo Kristu kalivagi kunja kwa numba ya Mlungu.
His parents spoke thus, because they fear the Jews: for the Jews had already determined, that whosoever acknowledged Jesus to be the Messiah, should be expelled from the synagogue.
23 Walelwa wakuwi walongiti, “Yomberi ndo muntu mkulu, Mumkosiyi.”
For this reason his parents said, He is of age, ask him.
24 Su, wamshema kayi muntu ulii yakiwukiti lwisi na wamgambira, “Gumpanani ukwisa Mlungu! Twenga tuvimana kuwera muntu ayu ndo kana vidoda.”
A second time, therefore, they called the man, who had been born blind, and said to him, Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner.
25 Yomberi kankula, “Handa ndo nana vidoda neni nuvimana ndiri. Kumbiti shintu shimu nushimana, neriti na lwisi na vinu mona.”
He replied, Whether he be a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, I now see.
26 Wamkosiya, “Kakutenderiti shishi? Hashi kakutumuliziya masu gaku?”
They said to him again, What did he do to you? How did he make you see?
27 Muntu ayu kawankula, “Nuwagambireni mbera kala, namwenga mpikanira ndiri, mfira shishi kupikinira kayi? Hashi mwenga viraa mfira muweri wafundwa wakuwi?”
He answered, I told you before; did you not hear? Why would you hear it repeated? Will you, also, be his disciples?
28 Kumbiti womberi wamwigira pawatakula, “Gwenga ndo mfundwa gwakuwi, twenga wafundwa wa Musa.
They reviled him and said, You are his disciple. As for us, we are disciples of Moses.
29 Twega tuvimana handa Mlungu katakuliti na Musa, kumbiti muntu ayu tumumana ndiri kalawira koshi!”
We know that God spoke to Moses: as for this man, we know not whence he is.
30 Muntu ulii kawankula, “Ashi ndo shitwatira sha kulikangasha! Mwenga muvimana ndiri kalawira koshi, kumbiti kantumuliziya masu gangu!
The man replied, This is surprising, that you know not whence he is, although he has given me sight.
31 Tuvimana handa Mlungu hapeni kawapikiniri wantu wana vidoda, ira kumpikinira yoseri yakamjimira na kutenda vyakafiriti.
We know that God hears not sinners; but if any man worship God, and obey him, that man he hears.
32 Kwanjira lupaga pasipanu ipikanirika ndiri handa muntu kagatumuziya masu ga muntu yakayiwukiti lwisi. (aiōn g165)
Never was it heard before, that any man gave sight to one born blind. (aiōn g165)
33 Payiwera ndiri muntu ayu kalawa kwa Mlungu, mekaweziti ndiri kutenda shintu shoseri!”
If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.
34 Womberi wamwankula, “Gwenga gwiwuka na kulelwa pavidoda, na hashi guweza kutufunda twenga?” Wamwinga kulawa Mnumba ya Mlungu.
They replied, You were altogether born in sin, and do you teach us? And they cast him out.
35 Yesu kapikiniriti yagalawiliti, kamwoniti muntu uliya kamkosiya, “Hashi, gwenga gumjimira Mwana gwa Muntu?”
Jesus heard that they had cast him out, and having met him, said to him, Do you believe on the Son of God?
36 Muntu ayu kankula, “Mtuwa, gung'ambiri yomberi ndo gaa, su mpati kumjimira!”
He answered, Who is he, Sir, that I may believe on him?
37 Yesu kamgambira, “Gumwona kala na yomberi ndo yakatakula nagwenga vinu.”
Jesus said to him, Not only have you seen him; but it is he, who talks with you.
38 Muntu ayu katakula, “Nukujimira, Mtuwa!” Na kamsuntamilira Yesu.
And he cried, Master, I believe; and threw himself prostrate before him.
39 Yesu katakula, “Neni niza pasipanu kutoza wantu, wanalwisi wapati kuwona na woseri yawalola waweri lwisi.”
And Jesus said, For judgment am I come into this world, that they who see not, may see; and that they who see, may become blind.
40 Mafalisayu wamu waweriti pamuhera na yomberi wampikinira pakatakuriti aga na wamkosiya, “Gumaanisha natwenga twanalwisi viraa?”
Some Pharisees, who were present, hearing this, said to him, Are we also blind?
41 Yesu kawankula, “Mwangaweriti mwana lwisi, mwangaweriti ndiri na vidoda, kumbiti mwenga vinu mtakula, twenga tuwona, ayi ilanguziya kuwera mwana vidoda.”
Jesus answered, If you were blind, you would not have sin: but you say, We see: therefore your sin remains.
