Yohanes 9
1 Waktu Yesus berjalan, Ia melihat orang yang buta sejak lahir.
And as he passed by, he saw a man that had been blind from his birth.
2 Pengikut-pengikut Yesus bertanya kepada Yesus, "Bapak Guru, mengapa orang ini dilahirkan buta? Apakah karena ia sendiri berdosa atau karena ibu bapaknya berdosa?"
And his disciples asked him, saying: Rabbi, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3 Yesus menjawab, "Dia buta bukan karena dosanya sendiri atau dosa orang tuanya, tetapi supaya orang bisa melihat kuasa Allah bekerja dalam dirinya.
Jesus answered: Neither this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God might be made manifest in him.
4 Selama masih siang, kita harus mengerjakan pekerjaan Dia yang mengutus Aku. Malam akan tiba, dan seorang pun tak akan dapat bekerja.
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day; the night comes, when no man can work.
5 Selama Aku di dunia ini, Akulah terang dunia."
While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 Setelah berkata begitu Yesus meludah ke tanah, dan mengaduk ludah-Nya itu dengan tanah. Kemudian Ia mengoleskannya pada mata orang itu,
Having said this, he spit on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and spread the clay on the eyes of the blind man,
7 lalu berkata kepadanya, "Pergilah bersihkan mukamu di Kolam Siloam." (Siloam berarti 'Diutus'.) Maka orang itu pergi membersihkan mukanya. Waktu ia kembali, ia sudah dapat melihat.
and said to him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloam; which, translated, means Sent. He went, therefore, and washed and came seeing.
8 Tetangga-tetangganya dan orang-orang yang sebelumnya melihat dia mengemis, semuanya berkata, "Bukankah dia ini orang yang biasanya duduk minta-minta?"
Then his neighbors, and those who had before seen him, that he was blind, said: Is not this he that sat and begged?
9 Ada yang berkata, "Memang dia." Tetapi ada pula yang berkata, "Bukan, ia hanya mirip orang itu." Tetapi orang itu sendiri berkata, "Sayalah dia."
Some said: It is he. Others: He is like him. But he said: I am he.
10 "Bagaimana jadinya sampai engkau bisa melihat?" kata mereka kepadanya.
Then they said to him: How were your eyes opened?
11 Ia menjawab, "Orang yang bernama Yesus itu membuat sedikit lumpur, lalu mengoleskannya pada mata saya dan berkata, 'Pergilah bersihkan mukamu di Kolam Siloam.' Lalu saya pergi. Dan ketika saya membersihkan muka saya, saya bisa melihat."
He answered and said: A man called Jesus made clay and spread it on my eyes, and said to me: Go to the pool of Siloam and wash. After I had gone and washed, I received my sight.
12 "Di mana orang itu?" tanya mereka. Ia menjawab, "Tidak tahu."
Then they said to him: Where is he? He said: I know not.
13 Hari itu adalah hari Sabat waktu Yesus mengaduk tanah dengan ludah-Nya untuk membuat orang buta itu bisa melihat. Maka orang yang tadinya buta itu dibawa kepada orang-orang Farisi.
They brought to the Pharisees him that had formerly been blind.
And it was the sabbath when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.
15 Mereka juga bertanya kepadanya bagaimana ia dapat melihat. Ia menjawab, "Dia menaruh lumpur di mata saya, lalu saya membersihkannya dan saya bisa melihat."
Then again the Pharisees also inquired of him how he had received his sight. He said to them: He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and I see.
16 Beberapa di antara orang-orang Farisi itu berkata, "Tak mungkin orang yang melakukan ini berasal dari Allah, sebab Ia tidak mengindahkan hari Sabat." Tetapi orang lain berkata, "Mana mungkin orang yang berdosa melakukan keajaiban-keajaiban seperti ini?" Lalu timbullah pertentangan pendapat di antara mereka.
Then some of the Pharisees said: This man is not from God, for he keeps not the sabbath. Others said: How can a man that is a sinner do such signs? And there was a division among them?
17 Maka orang-orang Farisi itu bertanya lagi kepada orang itu, "Apa pendapatmu tentang Dia yang membuat engkau melihat?" "Dia nabi," jawab orang itu.
Again they said to the blind man: What say you of him, seeing that he opened your eyes? He said: He is a prophet.
18 Tetapi para pemimpin Yahudi itu tidak mau percaya bahwa orang itu memang buta sebelumnya dan sekarang dapat melihat. Karena itu mereka memanggil orang tuanya,
The Jews did not, therefore, believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, till they called the parents of him that had received his sight,
19 dan bertanya, "Benarkah ini anakmu yang katamu lahir buta? Bagaimana ia bisa melihat sekarang?"
and asked them, saying: Is this your son, who, you say, was born blind? How, then, does he now see?
20 Ibu bapak orang itu menjawab, "Memang ini anak kami; dan ia memang buta sejak lahir.
His parents answered them, and said: We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
21 Tetapi bagaimana ia bisa melihat sekarang, kami tidak tahu. Dan siapa yang membuat dia bisa melihat, itu pun kami tidak tahu. Tanya saja kepadanya, ia sudah dewasa; ia dapat menjawab sendiri."
but how he now sees we know not; or who opened his eyes we know not. He is of age; ask him; he will speak for himself.
22 Ibu bapak orang itu berkata begitu sebab mereka takut kepada para pemimpin Yahudi; karena mereka itu sudah sepakat, bahwa orang yang mengakui Yesus sebagai Raja Penyelamat, tidak boleh lagi masuk rumah ibadat.
His parents said this, because they feared the Jews. For the Jews had already agreed, that if any one should confess him to be the Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
23 Itu sebabnya ibu bapak orang itu berkata, "Ia sudah dewasa; tanya saja kepadanya."
For this reason his parents said: He is of age; ask him.
24 Lalu mereka memanggil lagi orang yang tadinya buta itu, dan berkata kepadanya, "Bersumpahlah bahwa engkau akan berkata yang benar. Kami tahu orang itu orang berdosa."
Then, the 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 "Apakah Dia berdosa atau tidak," jawab orang itu, "saya tidak tahu. Tetapi satu hal saya tahu; dahulu saya buta, sekarang saya melihat."
He answered and said: If he is a sinner, I know it not. One thing I do know, that having been blind, I now see.
26 Lalu mereka berkata lagi kepadanya, "Ia berbuat apa kepadamu? Bagaimana Ia membuat engkau melihat?"
They said to him again: What did he for you? How did he open your eyes?
27 Orang itu menjawab, "Sudah saya ceritakan kepadamu, tetapi kalian tidak mau mendengarkan. Mengapa kalian mau mendengarnya lagi? Barangkali kalian mau menjadi pengikut-pengikut-Nya juga?"
He answered them: I have already told you, and you did not understand; why would you hear it again? Do you also wish to become his disciples?
28 Lalu mereka memaki dia dan berkata, "Engkaulah pengikut-Nya; kami bukan! Kami pengikut Musa.
They reviled him, and said: You are the disciple of that man; but we are the disciples of Moses.
29 Kami tahu bahwa Allah sudah berbicara kepada Musa. Tetapi tentang orang itu, kami tidak tahu dari mana asal-Nya."
We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this man, we know not whence he is.
30 Orang itu menjawab, "Aneh sekali bahwa kalian tidak tahu dari mana asal-Nya, sedangkan Ia sudah membuat saya bisa melihat.
The man answered and said to them: Why, there is something wonderful in this, that you know not whence he is, and yet he has opened my eyes.
31 Kita tahu bahwa Allah tidak mendengarkan orang berdosa, melainkan orang yang menghormati Allah, dan melakukan kehendak-Nya.
We know that God hears not sinners; but if any one be a worshiper of God, and do his will, him he hears.
32 Sejak permulaan dunia belum pernah terdengar ada orang membuat orang yang lahir buta bisa melihat. (aiōn g165)
Since the beginning it has not been heard that any one opened the eyes of one who had been born blind. (aiōn g165)
33 Kalau orang itu bukan dari Allah, Ia tak akan dapat berbuat apa-apa."
If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.
34 Jawab mereka, "Apa? Engkau yang penuh dosa sejak lahir, engkau mau mengajar kami?" Maka sejak itu ia dilarang masuk ke rumah ibadat.
They answered and said to him: You were wholly born in sins, and do you teach us? And they cast him out.
35 Yesus mendengar bahwa mereka sudah mengucilkan orang itu dari rumah ibadat. Ia mencari orang itu lalu berkata kepadanya, "Apakah engkau percaya kepada Anak Manusia?"
Jesus heard that they had cast him out. And having found him, he said to him: Do you believe on the Son of God?
36 Orang itu menjawab, "Siapa Dia, Tuan? Tolong beritahukan supaya saya percaya kepada-Nya."
He answered and said: Who is he, sir, that I may believe on him?
37 "Engkau sudah melihat Dia," jawab Yesus. "Dialah yang sekarang ini sedang berbicara dengan engkau."
Jesus said to him: You have seen him; and it is he that talks with you.
38 "Saya percaya, Tuhan," kata orang itu, lalu sujud di hadapan Yesus.
He said: Lord, I believe; and he worshiped him.
39 Yesus berkata, "Aku datang ke dunia ini untuk menghakimi; supaya orang yang buta dapat melihat, dan orang yang dapat melihat, menjadi buta."
And Jesus said: For judgment have I come into this world, that those who see not, may see; and that those who see, may become blind.
40 Beberapa orang Farisi yang ada di situ mendengar Yesus berkata begitu, lalu mereka bertanya kepada-Nya, "Maksud-Mu kami ini buta juga?"
And some of the Pharisees who were with him, heard these things, and said to him: Are we also blind?
41 Yesus menjawab, "Sekiranya kalian buta, kalian tidak berdosa. Tetapi sebab kalian berkata, 'Kami melihat,' itu berarti kalian masih berdosa."
Jesus said to them: If you were blind, you would not have sin; but now you say, We see; therefore your sin remains.
