Yohanis 9
1 Basa naa ma, Yesus se lao. Boe ma nita atahori pokeꞌ esa, pokeꞌ eniꞌ a bonggi hendi ena.
Now as Jesus was passing by, He saw a man blind from birth,
2 Basa ma, Yesus ana mana tungga nara ratane rae, “Papa Meser! Seka mana tao salaꞌ, de atahori ia dadꞌi poke onaꞌ ia? Laoꞌ mia mesaꞌ ne do, huu ina-ama nara?”
and His disciples asked Him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”
3 Yesus nataa nae, “Atahori pokeꞌ ia nda tao salaꞌ sa. Boe ma ina-ama nara o nda tao salaꞌ fo ana poke sa boe. Bonggi e onaꞌ naa, fo ona bee naa basa atahori rita Lamatualain naꞌahahaiꞌ e.
Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but this happened so that the works of God would be displayed in him.
4 Lamatualain mana denu Au. Dadꞌi hita musi tao tahehere fo talalao Eni ue-tataon leleꞌ manggareloꞌ a feꞌe sia. Huu dei fo maꞌahatuꞌ a nema ena, atahori nda bisa tao ues sa ena.
While it is daytime, we must do the works of Him who sent Me. Night is coming, when no one can work.
5 Leleꞌ Au feꞌe sia raefafoꞌ ia, Au onaꞌ manggareloꞌ a mana naronda soaꞌ neu basa atahori.”
While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
6 Yesus olaꞌ basa naꞌo naa, boe ma Ana puras miru neu rae a. Basa ma Ana endoꞌ daka-daka, de sesebꞌoꞌ rae a dadꞌi tane. Boe ma ana lelemu tane a neu atahori pokeꞌ a matan.
When Jesus had said this, He spit on the ground, made some mud, and applied it to the man’s eyes.
7 Basa ma Ana helu nae, “Muu sia lifu Siloam, fo safe matam sia naa.” (Sia dedꞌea Ibrani, Siloam sosoan nae, ‘haitua nema’.) Basa de, atahori pokeꞌ a naa neu, de narou matan. Leleꞌ ana heoꞌ baliꞌ nema, ana bisa nita ena!
Then He told him, “Go, wash in the Pool of Siloam” (which means “Sent”). So the man went and washed, and came back seeing.
8 Basa naa ma, atahori mana sia ume bobꞌoa nara, ma mana parna rita e soaꞌ a hule-huleꞌ, ratatane rae, “We! Ia atahori pokeꞌ, fo feꞌesaꞌan mana endoꞌ hule-huleꞌ, to?”
At this, his neighbors and those who had formerly seen him begging began to ask, “Isn’t this the man who used to sit and beg?”
9 Atahori ruma rae, “Tebꞌe! Naa eni ena!” Atahori ruma fai rae, “Hokoꞌ! Eni, matan mahombeꞌ onaꞌ atahori naa boe!” Te atahori naa nafadꞌe nae, “Hokoꞌ! Ia au ena! Feꞌesaꞌan fo pokeꞌ a!”
Some claimed that he was, but others said, “No, he just looks like him.” But the man kept saying, “I am the one.”
10 Basa ma ratane rae, “Taꞌo bee de bisa mita onaꞌ ia, e?”
“How then were your eyes opened?” they asked.
11 Boe ma ana nataa nae, “Taꞌo ia! Atahori fo naran Yesus naa, tao tane, de Ana lelemu neu mata ngga. Boe ma Ana denu au nae, ‘Muu sia lifu Siloam, fo murou matam sia naa.’ De au tao tungga. Naeni de ia naa au bisa ita ena!”
He answered, “The man they call Jesus made some mud and anointed my eyes, and He told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed and received my sight.”
12 Basa ma ratane rae, “De atahori naa sia bee?” Ma ana nataa nae, “Teꞌee, de!”
“Where is He?” they asked. “I do not know,” he answered.
13 Faiꞌ naa, leleꞌ Yesus sesebꞌoꞌ tane a, ma tao atahori pokeꞌ a bisa nita, nandaa no atahori Yahudi ra fai hahae tao ue-osaꞌ. Boe ma ara rendi atahori fo maꞌahulun pokeꞌ a, neu nataa sia partei agama Farisi ra atahori nara.
They brought to the Pharisees the man who had been blind.
Now the day on which Jesus had made the mud and opened his eyes was a Sabbath.
15 Basa ma, atahori Farisi ra ratane rae, “Mufadꞌe sobꞌa dei! Taꞌo bee de ia na bisa mita ena?” Ana nataa nae, “Taꞌo ia. Atahori naa tao tane neu mata ngga. Basa de au uu urou mata ngga. Ia na au bisa ita ena.”
So the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. The man answered, “He put mud on my eyes, and I washed, and now I can see.”
16 Hambu atahori Farisi ruma rae, “Atahori mana tao nahaiꞌ nggo naa, nda mia Lamatualain sa. Hai bubꞌuluꞌ, huu Ana nalena-langga hohoro-lalaneꞌ soꞌal fai hahae tao ue-osaꞌ.” Hambu ruma fai rae, “Taꞌo bee de atahori mana tao salaꞌ bisa tao manadadꞌi-manaseliꞌ taꞌo naa?” Basa ma rareresi losa ara saranggaa.
Because of this, some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, for He does not keep the Sabbath.” But others said, “How can a sinful man perform such signs?” And there was division among them.
17 Dadꞌi ara ratane seluꞌ atahori feꞌesaꞌan pokeꞌ a rae, “Tungga nggo naa, Atahori mana tao nalaa matam naa, atahori mataꞌ bee?” Ana nataa nae, “Tungga au, na, Eni, Lamatualain mana ola-olan esa.”
So once again they asked the man who had been blind, “What do you say about Him, since it was your eyes He opened?” “He is a prophet,” the man replied.
18 Te atahori Yahudi ra malangga nara nda ramahere rae, atahori naa parna poke, te ia naa bisa nita ena. Boe ma ara denu reu roꞌe ina-aman fo rema rataa.
The Jews still did not believe that the man had been blind and had received his sight until they summoned his parents
19 Leleꞌ ara rema, malangga ra ratane rae, “Atahori ia, hei anam, do? Tebꞌe, do hokoꞌ, memaꞌ ana poke eniꞌ a bonggi e, do? Basa ma, taꞌo bee de ia na ana bisa nita?”
and asked, “Is this your son, the one you say was born blind? So how is it that he can now see?”
20 Atahori na ina-aman rataa rae, “Eni ia, memaꞌ hai anam. Boe ma memaꞌ ana poke eniꞌ a bonggi e.
His parents answered, “We know he is our son, and we know he was born blind.
21 Te hai nda bubꞌuluꞌ, ana pake saa de ia naa ana bisa nita sa. Seka mana tao nalaa matan, hai o nda bubꞌuluꞌ sa boe. Eni, monaeꞌ ena. Netane sia e, huu ana bisa dui aon!”
But how he can now see or who opened his eyes, we do not know. Ask him. He is old enough to speak for himself.”
22 Ara olaꞌ taꞌo naa, huu ara ramatau atahori Yahudi ra malangga nara. Huu ara bubꞌuluꞌ oi, malangga ra ralaꞌ esa rae, “Mete ma hambu atahori rataa rae, Yesus, naeni Kristus, naa, hita musi mbuu hendi atahori mana nataa naꞌo naa mia hita atahori Yahudi ra ume hule-oꞌen.”
His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews. For the Jews had already determined that anyone who confessed Jesus as the Christ would be put out of the synagogue.
23 Naeni de atahori naa ina-ama nara, rataa rae, “Eni monaeꞌ ena. Netane sia e.”
That was why his parents said, “He is old enough. Ask him.”
24 Basa de ara roꞌe seluꞌ atahori fo feꞌesaꞌan pokeꞌ naa. Boe ma ara rae, “Taꞌo ia! Musi mutaa no matetuꞌ sia Lamatualain matan fo munea nara malolen. Huu hai mihine tebꞌeꞌ, Yesus naa, atahori deꞌulakaꞌ.”
So a second time they called for the man who had been blind and said, “Give glory to God! We know that this man is a sinner.”
25 Atahori fo parna pokeꞌ a nataa nae, “Amaꞌ se afiꞌ miminasa, e! Huu au nda uhine ae Eni, atahori deꞌulakaꞌ, do hokoꞌ sa. Te au uhine tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ, naeni, feꞌesaꞌan au pokeꞌ; te ia naa, au bisa ita ena.”
He answered, “Whether He is a sinner I do not know. There is one thing I do know: I was blind, but now I see!”
26 Ara ratane fai rae, “Ana tao nggo taꞌo bee? Ana buka matam taꞌo bee?”
“What did He do to you?” they asked. “How did He open your eyes?”
27 Boe ma ana nataa nae, “Hee! Faꞌra au dui ena, te hei nda nau rena sa. Saa de hei nauꞌ a au dui seluꞌ fai? Seꞌu te amaꞌ se nau mae dadꞌi ana mana tunggan boe, do?”
He replied, “I already told you, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become His disciples?”
28 Basa ma ara rarai e, ma rae, “Hela neu fo akaꞌ mesaꞌ nggo dadꞌi ana mana tunggan! Huu hai ia, baꞌi Musa ana mana tungga nara.
Then they heaped insults on him and said, “You are His disciple; we are disciples of Moses.
29 Hai bubꞌuluꞌ Lamatualain ola-olaꞌ no baꞌi Musa. Te hai nda bubꞌuluꞌ Atahori naa, nema mia ndolaꞌ bee sa boe.”
We know that God spoke to Moses, but we do not know where this man is from.”
30 Atahori fo maꞌahulun pokeꞌ a nataa nae, “Heran, e! Hei nda mihine Ana mia bee nema sa boe. Tao-tao te Eni mana tao nalaa mata ngga de ia na au ita ena.
“That is remarkable indeed!” the man said. “You do not know where He is from, and yet He opened my eyes.
31 Basa nggita bubꞌuluꞌ tae, Lamatualain nda rena atahori deꞌulakaꞌ ra sa, to? Te Lamatualain rena atahori rala ndoos, mana nasodꞌa tao tungga Eni hihii-nanaun.
We know that God does not listen to sinners, but He does listen to the one who worships Him and does His will.
32 Eniꞌ a Lamatualain naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ lalai no raefafoꞌ losa leleꞌ ia, nda hambu dudꞌuit esa sa boe, soꞌal atahori tao nahaiꞌ atahori pokeꞌ mana pokeꞌ eniꞌ a bonggi hendi e, de ana bisa nita. (aiōn g165)
Never before has anyone heard of opening the eyes of a man born blind. (aiōn g165)
33 Dadꞌi mete ma Yesus nda nema mia Lamatualain sa, tantu Ana nda bisa tao nala saa sa boe, to?”
If this man were not from God, He could do no such thing.”
34 Boe ma ara rataa rae, “Weh! Ho ia, atahori deꞌulakaꞌ mia ina ma bonggi hendi nggo! Taꞌo bee de bisa duꞌa mae ho bisa munori baliꞌ hai fai?” Basa ma ara mbuu hendi e mia sira ume hule-oꞌen.
They replied, “You were born in utter sin, and you are instructing us?” And they threw him out.
35 Leleꞌ Yesus rena ara mbuu hendi atahori feꞌesaꞌan pokeꞌ a mia ume hule-oꞌeꞌ a, ma Ana neu sangga atahori naa, losa hambu e. Boe ma Ana nae, “Taꞌo bee! Mumuhere Atahori Matetuꞌ a, do?”
When Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, He found the man and said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”
36 Ana natane baliꞌ nae, “Eni seka, Papa? Tulun nefadꞌe dei, naa fo au bisa umuhere E boe.”
“Who is He, Sir?” he replied. “Tell me so that I may believe in Him.”
37 Boe ma Yesus nafadꞌe nae, “Mundaa mo E ena. Naeni Au ia, mana ola-olaꞌ no nggo leleꞌ ia.”
“You have already seen Him,” Jesus answered. “He is the One speaking with you.”
38 Basa ma atahori naa nae, “Papa, au umuhere!” Boe ma ana sendeꞌ lululanggan de beꞌutee mbali Yesus.
“Lord, I believe,” he said. And he worshiped Jesus.
39 Basa ma Yesus olaꞌ mbali e nae, “Au uma sia raefafoꞌ ia fo utudꞌu atahori ra sala-kilu nara, naa fo atahori pokeꞌ ra rita, ma atahori mata meu-malaaꞌ ra dadꞌi pokeꞌ.”
Then Jesus declared, “For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind may see and those who see may become blind.”
40 Sia naa hambu atahori Farisi hira rena oꞌolan boe. Boe ma ara ratane rae, “Taꞌo bee, ia? Tebe-tebeꞌ hai nda pokeꞌ sa, to?”
Some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard this, and they asked Him, “Are we blind too?”
41 Yesus nataa nae, “Taꞌo ia. Mete ma memaꞌ hei nda pokeꞌ sa, na, nda hambu mana fee salaꞌ neu nggi sa. Te mae, hei atahori mata meu-malaaꞌ. Naeni de hei feꞌe lemba-doi sala mara.”
“If you were blind,” Jesus replied, “you would not be guilty of sin. But since you claim you can see, your guilt remains.”
