Sione 9
1 Pea ʻi he ʻalu ange ʻa [Sisu], ne mamata ia ki ha tangata naʻe fanauʻi ko e kui.
And as Iesus passed by, he sawe a man which was blinde from his birth.
2 Pea fehuʻi ʻene kau ākonga kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “Lāpai, ko hai naʻe fai angahala, ʻae tangata ni, pe ko ʻene mātuʻa, naʻe fanauʻi kui ai ia?”
And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sinne, this man, or his parents, that he was borne blinde?
3 Pea talaange ʻe Sisu, “Naʻe ʻikai fai angahala ʻae tangata ni, pe ko ʻene mātuʻa: ka ko e meʻa ke fakahā ʻiate ia ʻae ngaahi ngāue ʻae ʻOtua.
Iesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents, but that the workes of God should be shewed on him.
4 ʻOku totonu ke u fai ʻae ngaahi ngāue ʻo ia naʻa ne fekau au, lolotonga ʻene kei ʻaho: ʻoku haʻu ʻae pō, ʻoku ʻikai faʻa ngāue ai ha tokotaha.”
I must worke the workes of him that sent me, while it is day: the night commeth when no man can worke.
5 ʻI heʻeku kei ʻi māmani ko e maama au ʻo māmani.
As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 Hili ʻene lea pehē, naʻe ʻaʻanu ia ki he kelekele, ʻo ne ngaohi ʻaki ʻae ʻaʻanu ʻae ʻumea, ʻo ne pani ʻaki ʻae ʻumea ʻae mata ʻoe tangata kui,
Assoone as he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spettle, and anointed the eyes of the blinde with the clay,
7 ʻO ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻAlu, ʻo kaukau ʻi he ano vai ko Seiloami,” (ʻa ia ko hono ʻuhinga, “Ko e fekau.”) Ko ia naʻe ʻalu ai ia, ʻo kaukau, pea haʻu kuo ʻā.
And sayd vnto him, Go wash in the poole of Siloam (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came againe seeing.
8 Ko ia ko e kaungāʻapi, pea mo kinautolu naʻe mamata muʻa kiate ia ʻi heʻene kui, naʻa nau pehē, “ʻIkai ko eni ia naʻe nofo ʻo kole?”
Nowe the neighbours and they that had seene him before, when he was blinde, sayd, Is not this he that sate and begged?
9 Pea tala ʻe he niʻihi, “Ko eni ia:” pea [lea ]ʻae niʻihi, “ʻOku hangē ko ia:” ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Ko au ia.”
Some said, This is he: and other sayd, He is like him: but he himselfe sayd, I am he.
10 “Ko ia naʻa nau pehē kiate ia, naʻe fakaʻā fēfeeʻi ho mata?”
Therefore they sayd vnto him, Howe were thine eyes opened?
11 Pea talaange ʻe ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e tangata ʻoku ui ko Sisu naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ʻumea, ʻo ne pani hoku mata, pea ne pehē kiate au, ‘ʻAlu ki he ano vai ko Seiloami, ʻo kaukau:’ pea naʻaku ʻalu, ʻo kaukau, pea u ʻā ai.”
He answered, and sayd, The man that is called Iesus, made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and sayde vnto me, Goe to the poole of Siloam and wash. So I went and washed, and receiued sight.
12 Pea nau pehē ai kiate ia, “Kofaʻā ia?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻOku ʻikai te u ʻiloa.”
Then they sayd vnto him, Where is he? He sayd, I can not tell.
13 Naʻa nau ʻomi ki he kau Fālesi ʻaia naʻe kui.
They brought to the Pharises him that was once blinde.
14 Pea ko e ʻaho Sāpate ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ai ʻe Sisu ʻae ʻumea, ʻo ne fakaʻā hono mata.
And it was the Sabbath day, when Iesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
15 Pea fehuʻi foki ʻae kau Fālesi kiate ia, pe naʻe fēfē hono fakaʻā. Pea pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, ‘Naʻe ʻai ʻe ia ʻae ʻumea ki hoku mata, pea u kaukau, pea ʻoku ou ʻā.”
Then againe the Pharises also asked him, how he had receiued sight. And hee sayd vnto them, He layd clay vpon mine eyes, and I washed, and doe see.
16 Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe he niʻihi ʻoe kau Fālesi, “ʻOku ʻikai mei he ʻOtua ʻae tangata ni, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te ne tokanga ki he ʻaho Sāpate.” Pea pehē ʻe he niʻihi, “ʻE faʻa fai fēfeeʻi ʻae ngaahi mana pehē ʻe ha angahala? Pea naʻa nau fakakikihi ai.”
Then said some of the Pharises, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the Sabbath day. Others sayd, Howe can a man that is a sinner, doe such miracles? and there was a dissension among them.
17 Pea naʻa nau toe fehuʻi ki he tangata kui, “Ko e hā hoʻo lau kiate ia, ʻi heʻene fakaʻā ho mata?” Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e palōfita ia.”
Then spake they vnto the blinde againe, What sayest thou of him, because he hath opened thine eyes? And he sayd, He is a Prophet.
18 Ka naʻe ʻikai tui ʻae kakai Siu naʻe kui ia, pea kuo ʻā, kaeʻoua ke nau ui ʻae mātuʻa ʻo ia kuo fakaʻā.
Then the Iewes did not beleeue him (that he had bene blinde, and receiued his sight) vntill they had called the parents of him that had receiued sight.
19 Pea nau fehuʻi kiate kinaua, ʻo pehē, “Ko hoʻomo tama eni, ʻoku mo lau naʻe fanauʻi kui? Pea ʻoku ʻa fēfē eni?”
And they asked them, saying, Is this your sonne, whom ye say was borne blinde? How doeth he nowe see then?
20 Pea leaange ʻene mātuʻa kiate kinautolu, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ma ʻilo ko ʻema tama eni, pea naʻe fanauʻi ʻoku kui:
His parents answered them, and sayd, We know that this is our sonne, and that he was borne blinde:
21 Ka ko e meʻa ko ia ʻoku ʻā ai ni ia, ʻoku ʻikai te ma ʻilo; pea ʻoku ʻikai te ma ʻilo pe ko hai kuo fakaʻā hono mata; ka ʻoku lahi ia: fehuʻi ki ai: ke lea ia kiate ia.”
But by what meanes hee nowe seeth, we know not: or who hath opened his eyes, can we not tell: he is olde ynough: aske him: hee shall answere for himselfe.
22 Naʻe pehē ʻae lea ʻa ʻene mātuʻa, he naʻa na manavahē ki he kakai Siu: he kuo alea pau ʻae kakai Siu, kapau ʻe ai ha tokotaha te ne fakahā ko e Kalaisi ia, ʻe kapusi ia mei he falelotu.
These wordes spake his parents, because they feared the Iewes: for the Iewes had ordeined already, that if any man did confesse that he was Christ, he should be excommunicate out of the Synagogue.
23 Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe heʻene mātuʻa, “ʻOku lahi ia; fehuʻi ki ai.”
Therefore sayde his parents, Hee is olde ynough: aske him.
24 Pea naʻa nau toe ui ʻae tangata naʻe kui, ʻonau pehē kiate ia, “Tuku ki he ʻOtua ʻae fakamālō: ʻoku mau ʻilo ko e angahala ʻae tangata ni.”
Then againe called they the man that had bene blinde, and sayd vnto him, Giue glory vnto God: we know that this man is a sinner.
25 Pea leaange ʻe ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko ha angahala ia pe ʻikai, ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo: ko e meʻa ʻe taha ʻoku ou ʻilo, naʻaku kui, ka ko eni ʻoku ou ʻā.”
Then he answered, and sayd, Whether hee be a sinner or no, I can not tell: one thing I know, that I was blinde, and nowe I see.
26 Pea toe fehuʻi ai ʻakinautolu kiate ia, “Ko e hā naʻa ne fai kiate koe? Naʻe fēfeeʻi ʻene fakaʻā ho mata?”
Then sayd they to him againe, What did he to thee? howe opened he thine eyes?
27 Pea leaange ia kiate kinautolu, “Kuo ʻosi ʻeku tala kiate kimoutolu, pea ʻoku ʻikai te mou ongoʻi: ko e hā ʻoku mou toe fie fanongo ai? Te mou ului ko ʻene kau ākonga foki?”
Hee answered them, I haue tolde you already, and yee haue not heard it: wherefore would yee heare it againe? will yee also be his disciples?
28 Pea nau taukaea ia, ʻo pehē, “Ko ʻene ākonga ʻa koe; ka ko e kau ākonga ʻa Mōsese ʻakimautolu.
Then reuiled they him, and sayd, Be thou his disciple: we be Moses disciples.
29 ʻOku mau ʻilo naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua kia Mōsese: ka ko e tangata ni, ʻoku ʻikai te mau ʻilo pe ʻoku mei fē ia.”
We know that God spake with Moses: but this man we know not from whence he is.
30 Pea leaange ʻae tangata, ʻo pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ta ko e meʻa fakamanavahē eni, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻilo pe ʻoku haʻu ia mei fē, ka kuo ne fakaʻā hoku mata.
The man answered, and sayde vnto them, Doutlesse, this is a marueilous thing, that ye know not whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.
31 ʻOku tau ʻilo ʻoku ʻikai ongoʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae kau angahala: ka ʻoka lotu ha tangata ki he ʻOtua, pea fai hono finangalo, ʻoku ne ongoʻi ia.
Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him heareth he.
32 Talu mei he kamataʻanga ʻo māmani ʻoku teʻeki fanongo naʻe ai ha tangata kuo fakaʻā ʻae mata ʻo ha tokotaha kuo fanauʻi kui. (aiōn g165)
Since the world began, was it not heard, that any man opened the eyes of one that was borne blinde. (aiōn g165)
33 Ka ne ʻikai ʻi he ʻOtua ʻae tangata ni, ʻe ʻikai faʻa fai ʻe ia ha meʻa.”
If this man were not of God, hee could haue done nothing.
34 Pea leaange ʻakinautolu, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “Naʻa ke tupu tofu pe ʻi he ngaahi angahala, pea ʻoku ke akoʻi ʻakimautolu?” Pea naʻa nau kapusi ia kituʻa.
They answered, and sayd vnto him, Thou art altogether borne in sinnes, and doest thou teach vs? so they cast him out.
35 Pea ongoʻi ʻe Sisu kuo nau kapusi ia kituʻa: pea ne toki ʻilo ia, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ke tui ki he ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua?”
Iesus heard that they had cast him out: and when he had found him, he sayd vnto him, Doest thou beleeue in the Sonne of God?
36 Pea leaange ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻEiki, ko hai ia, koeʻuhi ke u tui kiate ia?”
He answered, and sayd, Who is he, Lord, that I might beleeue in him?
37 Pea tala ʻe Sisu kiate ia, “Kuo ke mamata kiate ia, pea ko ia ia ʻoku talanoa kiate koe.”
And Iesus sayd vnto him, Both thou hast seene him, and he it is that talketh with thee.
38 Pea pehē ʻe ia, “ʻEiki, ʻoku ou tui. Pea naʻa ne hū kiate ia.
Then he sayd, Lord, I beleeue, and worshipped him.
39 Pea lea ʻa Sisu, “Ko e meʻa ʻi he fakamaau kuo u haʻu ki māmani, koeʻuhi ko kinautolu ʻoku ʻikai mamata ke nau mamata; pea ke kui ʻakinautolu ʻoku mamata.”
And Iesus sayd, I am come vnto iudgement into this world, that they which see not, might see: and that they which see, might be made blinde.
40 Pea fanongo ki he ngaahi lea ni ʻae niʻihi ʻoe Fālesi naʻe ʻiate ia, ʻonau pehē ki ai, “ʻOku kui ʻakimautolu foki?”
And some of the Pharises which were with him, heard these things, and sayd vnto him, Are we blinde also?
41 Pea pehē ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “Ka ne kui ʻakimoutolu, pehē, ʻe ʻikai haʻamou angahala ka ko eni ʻoku mou pehē, ʻOku mau ʻā ko ia ʻoku maʻu pe hoʻomou angahala.”
Iesus sayd vnto them, If ye were blinde, ye should not haue sinne: but nowe ye say, We see: therefore your sinne remaineth.
