< John 9 >

1 Ke Jesus el fahla, el liyauk sie mwet su nuna isusla kun.
And as he passed by, he saw a man that had been blind from his birth.
2 Mwet tumal lutlut siyuk sel, “Mwet Luti, su kac koluk pwanang el uh el isusla tuh kun? Ya ma koluk lal sifacna, ku ma lun papa tumal ac nina kial?”
And his disciples asked him, saying: Rabbi, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3 Jesus el topuk, “Tia ke sripen ma koluk lal sifacna ku koluk lun papa tumal ac nina kial pa pwanang el kun, a tuh ku lun God in ku in akilenyuk in el.
Jesus answered: Neither this man sinned, nor his parents; but that the works of God might be made manifest in him.
4 Kut enenu in kwafeang oru orekma lun El su supweyume ke srakna len. Fong apkuran me ke wangin mwet ac ku in orekma.
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day; the night comes, when no man can work.
5 Ke nga oasr faclu, nga kalem lun faclu.”
While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 Tukun el fahk ma inge, Jesus el anila nu infohk uh ac arukak ani nu ke fohk uh, ac sang mosrwela mutun mwet sac,
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 na el fahk nu sel, “Fahla ac twanla motom ke Lulu in Kof Siloam.” (Kalmen ine se inge pa “Supweyukla.”) Ouinge mwet sac som, twanla mutal, ac el foloko tuh liyaten.
and said to him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloam; which, translated, means Sent. He went, therefore, and washed and came seeing.
8 Na mwet tulan lal ac elos su liyal ke el mwet ngusr se meet, elos asiyuki, “Tia pa inge mwet se ma muta ngusr ah?”
Then his neighbors, and those who had before seen him, that he was blind, said: Is not this he that sat and begged?
9 Kutu selos fahk, “Pwaye, el pa ingan,” a kutu pac fahk, “Mo, tia el. El oana mwet sac.” Ouinge mwet sac sifacna fahk, “Nga pa mwet sac.”
Some said: It is he. Others: He is like him. But he said: I am he.
10 Elos siyuk sel, “Fuka tuh kom ku in liye inge?”
Then they said to him: How were your eyes opened?
11 El topuk, “Mwet se pangpang Jesus el orala fohk furarrar, ac sang mosrwela mutuk, ac fahk nga in som nu Siloam ac twanla mutuk. Na nga som, ac pacl se na nga twanla mutuk, nga ku in liye.”
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 Elos siyuk, “El oasr oya?” El topuk, “Nga nikin.”
Then they said to him: Where is he? He said: I know not.
13 Na elos pwanla mwet se ma tuh kun meet nu yurin mwet Pharisee.
They brought to the Pharisees him that had formerly been blind.
14 Len Sabbath se pa Jesus el orala fohk furarrar ac sang akwoyela mutun mwet kun sac.
And it was the sabbath when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.
15 Na mwet Pharisee elos sifilpa siyuk sin mwet sac lah fuka nwe el ku in liye. El fahk nu selos, “El sang fohk furarrar nu ke mutuk. Nga twanla mutuk, ac inge nga ku in liye.”
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 Kutu sin mwet Pharisee fahk, “Mwet se ma orala ma se inge tia ku in ma sin God me, mweyen el tia akos Ma Sap ke Sabbath.” A kutu mwet uh fahk, “Fuka tuh mwet koluk se in ku in oru kain luman mwenmen inge?” Na elos srisrielik.
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 Ke ma inge mwet Pharisee elos sifilpa siyuk sin mwet sac, “Kom fahk mu el akkalemyela motom — kwal, mea kom ac fahk kacl?” Mwet sac topuk, “El mwet palu se.”
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 Tusruktu mwet fulat lun mwet Jew elos tia lungse lulalfongi mu el kun meet ac inge el ku in liye, nwe ke na elos pangonma papa ac nina kial
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 ac siyuk seltal, “Ma nutumtal pa mukul se inge? Komtal fahk mu el isusla tuh kun. Na fuka tuh inge el ku in liye?”
and asked them, saying: Is this your son, who, you say, was born blind? How, then, does he now see?
20 Papa ac nina kial topuk, “Kut etu lah el wen natusr, ac kut etu pac lah el isusla kun.
His parents answered them, and said: We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;
21 Tusruktu kut tia etu lah fuka tuh inge el ku in liye. Kut tia pac etu lah su akkeyalla ke kun lal uh. Siyuk sel. El matu ac el ku in sifacna topuk!”
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 Papa ac nina kial ah fahk ouinge mweyen eltal sangeng sin mwet fulat lun mwet Jew, su insesela tari mu mwet se ma fahk mu el lulalfongi lah Jesus pa Christ, ac sisila el liki iwen lolngok.
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 Pa oru papa ac nina kial ah fahk mu, “El matu. Siyuk sel!”
For this reason his parents said: He is of age; ask him.
24 Elos sifilpa solama mwet se su isusla kun, ac fahk nu sel, “Wulela ye mutun God lah kom ac kaskas na pwaye! Kut etu lah mwet se su akkeyekomla inge el mwet koluk se.”
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 Mwet sac topuk, “Nga tia etu lah el mwet koluk se ku tia. Ma sefanna nga etu: nga mwet kun se meet, ac inge nga liye.”
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 Elos siyuk, “Mea el oru nu sum pwanang kom kwela liki kun lom ah?”
They said to him again: What did he for you? How did he open your eyes?
27 El topuk, “Nga fahk tari nu suwos, a kowos tiana porongo. Efu kowos ku lungse sifilpa lohng? Mea, kowos lungse wela pac mwet tumal lutlut?”
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 Elos suwoswosyang nu sel ac fahk, “Kom pa mwet tuma lutlut lun mwet sacn, a kut mwet lutlut lal Moses.
They reviled him, and said: You are the disciple of that man; but we are the disciples of Moses.
29 Kut etu lah God El kaskas nu sel Moses, a funu ke mwet sacn, kut tiana etu lah el tuku ya me!”
We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this man, we know not whence he is.
30 Mwet sac topuk, “Mea sakirik se! Kowos tia etu lah el tuku ya me, a el akkeyeyula liki kun luk uh!
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 Kut etu lah God El porongo mwet su inse pwaye nu sel ac akos ma lungse lal. El tia porongo mwet koluk uh.
We know that God hears not sinners; but if any one be a worshiper of God, and do his will, him he hears.
32 Oe ke mutawauk lun faclu, wangin sie mwet lohng mu sie mwet ku in sang liyaten nu sin sie mwet su isusla kun. (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 Mwet se inge fin tia ma sin God me, el koflana oru kutena ma.”
If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.
34 Ac elos topuk, “Kom isusla in ma koluk ac matula in ma koluk, a kom srike in luti kut?” Na elos sisella liki iwen lolngok uh.
They answered and said to him: You were wholly born in sins, and do you teach us? And they cast him out.
35 Ke Jesus el lohngak ma sikyak inge, el konauk mwet sac ac siyuk sel, “Ya kom lulalfongi ke Wen nutin Mwet?”
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 Mwet sac topuk, “Leum, fahk nu sik su el uh, tuh ngan ku in lulalfongel!”
He answered and said: Who is he, sir, that I may believe on him?
37 Jesus el fahk nu sel, “Kom liyal tari, ac el pa kaskas nu sum inge.”
Jesus said to him: You have seen him; and it is he that talks with you.
38 Mwet sac fahk, “Leum, nga lulalfongi,” ac el pasrla ye mutal ac alu nu sel.
He said: Lord, I believe; and he worshiped him.
39 Jesus el fahk, “Nga tuku nu faclu in nununku, tuh mwet kun fah ku in liye, ac elos su liye fah ekla kun.”
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 Kutu mwet Pharisee su welul elos lohng ma el fahk inge, na elos siyuk sel, “Ya kut kun pac?”
And some of the Pharisees who were with him, heard these things, and said to him: Are we also blind?
41 Jesus el fahk, “Kowos fin kun, na ac wangin mwatuwos. Tusruktu ke kowos fahk mu kowos ku in liye, kalmac pa oasr na mwatuwos.”
Jesus said to them: If you were blind, you would not have sin; but now you say, We see; therefore your sin remains.
