Κατα Ιωαννην 9
1 και παραγων ειδεν ανθρωπον τυφλον εκ γενετης
Now as Jesus passed by, he saw a man blind from birth.
2 και ηρωτησαν αυτον οι μαθηται αυτου λεγοντες ραββι τις ημαρτεν ουτος η οι γονεις αυτου ινα τυφλος γεννηθη
His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, so that he was born blind?”
3 απεκριθη ιησους ουτε ουτος ημαρτεν ουτε οι γονεις αυτου αλλ ινα φανερωθη τα εργα του θεου εν αυτω
Jesus answered, “Neither did this man sin, nor his parents, but so that the works of God would be revealed in him.
4 εμε δει εργαζεσθαι τα εργα του πεμψαντος με εως ημερα εστιν ερχεται νυξ οτε ουδεις δυναται εργαζεσθαι
We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day. Night is coming when no one will be able to work.
5 οταν εν τω κοσμω ω φως ειμι του κοσμου
While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
6 ταυτα ειπων επτυσεν χαμαι και εποιησεν πηλον εκ του πτυσματος και επεχρισεν τον πηλον επι τους οφθαλμους του τυφλου
After Jesus said these things, he spit on the ground, made mud with the saliva, and smeared the mud on his eyes.
7 και ειπεν αυτω υπαγε νιψαι εις την κολυμβηθραν του σιλωαμ ο ερμηνευεται απεσταλμενος απηλθεν ουν και ενιψατο και ηλθεν βλεπων
He said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam,” (which is translated “Sent”). So the man went away, washed, and came back seeing.
8 οι ουν γειτονες και οι θεωρουντες αυτον το προτερον οτι τυφλος ην ελεγον ουχ ουτος εστιν ο καθημενος και προσαιτων
Then the man's neighbors and those who had seen him previously as a beggar were saying, “Is not this the man that used to sit and beg?”
9 αλλοι ελεγον οτι ουτος εστιν αλλοι δε οτι ομοιος αυτω εστιν εκεινος ελεγεν οτι εγω ειμι
Some said, “It is he.” Others said, “No, but he is like him.” But he said, “It is me.”
10 ελεγον ουν αυτω πως ανεωχθησαν σου οι οφθαλμοι
They said to him, “Then how were your eyes opened?”
11 απεκριθη εκεινος και ειπεν ανθρωπος λεγομενος ιησους πηλον εποιησεν και επεχρισεν μου τους οφθαλμους και ειπεν μοι υπαγε εις την κολυμβηθραν του σιλωαμ και νιψαι απελθων δε και νιψαμενος ανεβλεψα
He answered, “The man who is called Jesus made mud and smeared it on my eyes and said to me, 'Go to Siloam and wash.' So I went and washed, and I received my sight.”
12 ειπον ουν αυτω που εστιν εκεινος λεγει ουκ οιδα
They said to him, “Where is he?” He replied, “I do not know.”
13 αγουσιν αυτον προς τους φαρισαιους τον ποτε τυφλον
They brought the man who used to be blind to the Pharisees.
14 ην δε σαββατον οτε τον πηλον εποιησεν ο ιησους και ανεωξεν αυτου τους οφθαλμους
Now it was the Sabbath day when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.
15 παλιν ουν ηρωτων αυτον και οι φαρισαιοι πως ανεβλεψεν ο δε ειπεν αυτοις πηλον επεθηκεν μου επι τους οφθαλμους και ενιψαμην και βλεπω
Then again the Pharisees asked him how he had received his sight. He said to them, “He put mud on my eyes, I washed, and I now can see.”
16 ελεγον ουν εκ των φαρισαιων τινες ουτος ο ανθρωπος ουκ εστιν παρα του θεου οτι το σαββατον ου τηρει αλλοι ελεγον πως δυναται ανθρωπος αμαρτωλος τοιαυτα σημεια ποιειν και σχισμα ην εν αυτοις
Some 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 a division among them.
17 λεγουσιν τω τυφλω παλιν συ τι λεγεις περι αυτου οτι ηνοιξεν σου τους οφθαλμους ο δε ειπεν οτι προφητης εστιν
So they asked the blind man again, “What do you say about him, since he opened your eyes?” The blind man said, “He is a prophet.”
18 ουκ επιστευσαν ουν οι ιουδαιοι περι αυτου οτι τυφλος ην και ανεβλεψεν εως οτου εφωνησαν τους γονεις αυτου του αναβλεψαντος
Now the Jews still did not believe about him that he was blind and had received his sight until they called the parents of him who had received his sight.
19 και ηρωτησαν αυτους λεγοντες ουτος εστιν ο υιος υμων ον υμεις λεγετε οτι τυφλος εγεννηθη πως ουν αρτι βλεπει
They asked the parents, “Is this your son whom you say was born blind? How then does he now see?”
20 απεκριθησαν δε αυτοις οι γονεις αυτου και ειπον οιδαμεν οτι ουτος εστιν ο υιος ημων και οτι τυφλος εγεννηθη
So his parents answered them, “We know that this is our son and that he was born blind.
21 πως δε νυν βλεπει ουκ οιδαμεν η τις ηνοιξεν αυτου τους οφθαλμους ημεις ουκ οιδαμεν αυτος ηλικιαν εχει αυτον ερωτησατε αυτος περι εαυτου λαλησει
How he now sees, we do not know, and who opened his eyes, we do not know. Ask him, he is an adult. He can speak for himself.”
22 ταυτα ειπον οι γονεις αυτου οτι εφοβουντο τους ιουδαιους ηδη γαρ συνετεθειντο οι ιουδαιοι ινα εαν τις αυτον ομολογηση χριστον αποσυναγωγος γενηται
His parents said these things, because they were afraid of the Jews. For the Jews had already agreed that if anyone would confess him to be the Christ, he would be thrown out of the synagogue.
23 δια τουτο οι γονεις αυτου ειπον οτι ηλικιαν εχει αυτον ερωτησατε
Because of this, his parents said, “He is an adult, ask him.”
24 εφωνησαν ουν εκ δευτερου τον ανθρωπον ος ην τυφλος και ειπον αυτω δος δοξαν τω θεω ημεις οιδαμεν οτι ο ανθρωπος ουτος αμαρτωλος εστιν
So for a second time they called the man who had been blind and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”
25 απεκριθη ουν εκεινος και ειπεν ει αμαρτωλος εστιν ουκ οιδα εν οιδα οτι τυφλος ων αρτι βλεπω
Then that man replied, “I do not know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: I was blind, and now I see.”
26 ειπον δε αυτω παλιν τι εποιησεν σοι πως ηνοιξεν σου τους οφθαλμους
Then they said to him, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”
27 απεκριθη αυτοις ειπον υμιν ηδη και ουκ ηκουσατε τι παλιν θελετε ακουειν μη και υμεις θελετε αυτου μαθηται γενεσθαι
He answered, “I have told you already, and you did not listen! Why do you want to hear it again? You do not want to become his disciples too, do you?
28 ελοιδορησαν αυτον και ειπον συ ει μαθητης εκεινου ημεις δε του μωυσεως εσμεν μαθηται
They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
29 ημεις οιδαμεν οτι μωυσει λελαληκεν ο θεος τουτον δε ουκ οιδαμεν ποθεν εστιν
We know that God has spoken to Moses, but we do not know where this one is from.”
30 απεκριθη ο ανθρωπος και ειπεν αυτοις εν γαρ τουτω θαυμαστον εστιν οτι υμεις ουκ οιδατε ποθεν εστιν και ανεωξεν μου τους οφθαλμους
The man answered and said to them, “This is remarkable, that you do not know where he is from, and yet he opened my eyes.
31 οιδαμεν δε οτι αμαρτωλων ο θεος ουκ ακουει αλλ εαν τις θεοσεβης η και το θελημα αυτου ποιη τουτου ακουει
We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if someone is devout and does his will, he listens to him.
Since the world began it has never been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a man born blind. (aiōn g165)
33 ει μη ην ουτος παρα θεου ουκ ηδυνατο ποιειν ουδεν
If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.”
34 απεκριθησαν και ειπον αυτω εν αμαρτιαις συ εγεννηθης ολος και συ διδασκεις ημας και εξεβαλον αυτον εξω
They answered and said to him, “You were completely born in sins, and you are teaching us?” Then they threw him out.
35 ηκουσεν ο ιησους οτι εξεβαλον αυτον εξω και ευρων αυτον ειπεν αυτω συ πιστευεις εις τον υιον του θεου
Jesus heard that they had cast him out of the synagogue. He found him and said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”
36 απεκριθη εκεινος και ειπεν και τις εστιν κυριε ινα πιστευσω εις αυτον
He replied and said, “Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?”
37 ειπεν δε αυτω ο ιησους και εωρακας αυτον και ο λαλων μετα σου εκεινος εστιν
Jesus said to him, “You have seen him, and it is the one who is speaking with you.”
38 ο δε εφη πιστευω κυριε και προσεκυνησεν αυτω
The man said, “Lord, I believe” and he worshiped him.
39 και ειπεν ο ιησους εις κριμα εγω εις τον κοσμον τουτον ηλθον ινα οι μη βλεποντες βλεπωσιν και οι βλεποντες τυφλοι γενωνται
Jesus said, “For judgment I came into this world so that those who do not see may see and so that those who see may become blind.”
40 και ηκουσαν εκ των φαρισαιων ταυτα οι οντες μετ αυτου και ειπον αυτω μη και ημεις τυφλοι εσμεν
Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things and asked him, “Are we also blind?”
41 ειπεν αυτοις ο ιησους ει τυφλοι ητε ουκ αν ειχετε αμαρτιαν νυν δε λεγετε οτι βλεπομεν η ουν αμαρτια υμων μενει
Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin, but now you say, 'We see,' so your sin remains.”
