¹And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.

¹ሲያልፍም ከመወለዱ ጀምሮ ዕውር የሆነውን ሰው አየ።

²And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

²ደቀ መዛሙርቱም። መምህር ሆይ፥ ይህ ሰው ዕውር ሆኖ እንዲወለድ ኃጢአት የሠራ ማን ነው? እርሱ ወይስ ወላጆቹ? ብለው ጠየቁት።

³Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

³ኢየሱስም እንዲህ ብሎ መለሰ። የእግዚአብሔር ሥራ በእርሱ እንዲገለጥ ነው እንጂ እርሱ ወይም ወላጆቹ ኃጢአት አልሠሩም።

⁴I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.

⁴ቀን ሳለ የላከኝን ሥራ ላደርግ ይገባኛል፤ ማንም ሊሠራ የማይችልባት ሌሊት ትመጣለች።

⁵As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

⁵በዓለም ሳለሁ የዓለም ብርሃን ነኝ።

⁶When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,

⁶ይህን ብሎ ወደ መሬት እንትፍ አለ በምራቁም ጭቃ አድርጎ በጭቃው የዕውሩን ዓይኖች ቀባና።

⁷And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

⁷ሂድና በሰሊሆም መጠመቂያ ታጠብ አለው፤ ትርጓሜው የተላከ ነው። ስለዚህ ሄዶ ታጠበ እያየም መጣ።

⁸The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?

⁸ጐረቤቶቹም ቀድሞም ሲለምን አይተውት የነበሩ። ይህ ተቀምጦ ይለምን የነበረ አይደለምን? አሉ።

⁹Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.

⁹ሌሎች። እርሱ ነው አሉ፤ ሌሎች። አይደለም እርሱን ይመስላል እንጂ አሉ፤ እርሱ። እኔ ነኝ አለ።

¹⁰Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?

¹⁰ታድያ። ዓይኖችህ እንዴት ተከፈቱ? አሉት።

¹¹He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.

¹¹እርሱ መልሶ። ኢየሱስ የሚባለው ሰው ጭቃ አድርጎ አይኖቼን ቀባና። ወደ ሰሊሆም መጠመቂያ ሄደህ ታጠብ አለኝ፤ ሄጄ ታጥቤም አየሁ አለ።

¹²Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.

¹²ያ ሰው ወዴት ነው? አሉት። አላውቅም አለ።

¹³They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.

¹³በፊት ዕውር የነበረውን ሰው ወደ ፈሪሳውያን ወሰዱት።

¹⁴And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

¹⁴ኢየሱስም ጭቃ አድርጎ ዓይኖቹን የከፈተበት ቀን ሰንበት ነበረ።

¹⁵Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.

¹⁵ስለዚህ ፈሪሳውያን ደግሞ እንዴት እንዳየ እንደ ገና ጠየቁት። እርሱም። ጭቃ በዓይኖቼ አኖረ ታጠብሁም አያለሁም አላቸው።

¹⁶Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

¹⁶ከፈሪሳውያንም አንዳንዶቹ። ይህ ሰው ሰንበትን አያከብርምና ከእግዚአብሔር አይደለም አሉ። ሌሎች ግን። ኃጢአትኛ ሰው እንደነዚህ ያሉ ምልክቶች ሊያደርግ እንዴት ይችላል? አሉ።

¹⁷They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.

¹⁷በመካከላቸውም መለያየት ሆነ። ከዚህም የተነሣ ዕውሩን። አንተ ዓይኖችህን ስለ ከፈተ ስለ እርሱ ምን ትላለህ? ደግሞ አሉት። እርሱም። ነቢይ ነው አለ።

¹⁸But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.

¹⁸አይሁድ የዚያን ያየውን ወላጆች እስኪጠሩ ድረስ ዕውር እንደ ነበረ እንዳየም ስለ እርሱ አላመኑም፥

¹⁹And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?

¹⁹እነርሱንም። እናንተ ዕውር ሆኖ ተወለደ የምትሉት ልጃችሁ ይህ ነውን? ታድያ አሁን እንዴት ያያል? ብለው ጠየቁአቸው።

²⁰His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:

²⁰ወላጆቹም መልሰው። ይህ ልጃችን እንደ ሆነ ዕውርም ሆኖ እንደ ተወለደ አናውቃለን፤

²¹But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.

²¹ዳሩ ግን አሁን እንዴት እንዳየ አናውቅም፥ ወይም ዓይኖቹን ማን እንደ ከፈተ እኛ አናውቅም፤ ጠይቁት እርሱ ሙሉ ሰው ነው፤ እርሱ ስለ ራሱ ይናገራል አሉ።

²²These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

²²ወላጆቹ አይሁድን ስለ ፈሩ ይህን አሉ፤ እርሱ ክርስቶስ ነው ብሎ የሚመሰክር ቢኖር ከምኵራብ እንዲያወጡት አይሁድ ከዚህ በፊት ተስማምተው ነበርና።

²³Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

²³ስለዚህ ወላጆቹ። ሙሉ ሰው ነው፥ ጠይቁት አሉ።

²⁴Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

²⁴ስለዚህ ዕውር የነበረውን ሰው ሁለተኛ ጠርተው። እግዚአብሔርን አክብር፤ ይህ ሰው ኃጢአተኛ መሆኑን እኛ እናውቃለን አሉት።

²⁵He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

²⁵እርሱም መልሶ። ኃጢአተኛ መሆኑን አላውቅም፤ ዕውር እንደ ነበርሁ አሁንም እንዳይ ይህን አንድ ነገር አውቃለሁ አለ።

²⁶Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

²⁶ደግመውም። ምን አደረገልህ? እንዴትስ ዓይኖችህን ከፈተ? አሉት።

²⁷He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?

²⁷እርሱም መልሶ። አስቀድሜ ነገርኋችሁ አልሰማችሁምም፤ ስለ ምን ዳግመኛ ልትሰሙ ትወዳላችሁ? እናንተ ደግሞ ደቀ መዛሙርቱ ልትሆኑ ትወዳላችሁን? አላቸው።

²⁸Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.

²⁸ተሳድበውም። አንተ የእርሱ ደቀ መዝሙር ነህ፥ እኛ ግን የሙሴ ደቀ መዛሙርት ነን፤

²⁹We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.

²⁹እግዚአብሔር ሙሴን እንደ ተናገረው እኛ እናውቃለን፥ ይህ ሰው ግን ከወዴት እንደ ሆነ አናውቅም አሉት።

³⁰The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.

³⁰ሰውዬው መለሰ እንዲህም አላቸው። ከወዴት እንደ ሆነ እናንተ አለማወቃችሁ ይህ ድንቅ ነገር ነው፥ ዳሩ ግን ዓይኖቼን ከፈተ።

³¹Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

³¹እግዚአብሔርን የሚፈራ ፈቃዱንም የሚያደርግ ቢኖር ያንን እግዚአብሔር ይሰማዋል እንጂ ኃጢአተኞችን እንዳይሰማ እናውቃለን።

³²Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.

³²ዕውር ሆኖ የተወለደውን ዓይኖች ማንም እንደ ከፈተ ዓለም ከተፈጠረ ጀምሮ አልተሰማም፤

³³If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.

³³ይህ ሰው ከእግዚአብሔር ባይሆን ምንም ሊያደርግ ባልቻለም ነበር።

³⁴They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

³⁴መልሰው። አንተ ሁለንተናህ በኃጢአት ተወለድህ፥ አንተም እኛን ታስተምረናለህን? አሉት። ወደ ውጭም አወጡት።

³⁵Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?

³⁵ኢየሱስም ወደ ውጭ እንዳወጡት ሰማ ሲያገኘውም። አንተ በእግዚአብሔር ልጅ ታምናለህን? አለው።

³⁶He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?

³⁶እርሱም መልሶ። ጌታ ሆይ፥ በእርሱ አምን ዘንድ ማን ነው? አለ።

³⁷And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.

³⁷ኢየሱስም። አይተኸዋልም ከአንተ ጋርም የሚናገረው እርሱ ነው አለው።

³⁸And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.

³⁸እርሱም። ጌታ ሆይ፥ አምናለሁ አለ፤ ሰገደለትም።

³⁹And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.

³⁹ኢየሱስም። የማያዩ እንዲያዩ የሚያዩም እንዲታወሩ እኔ ወደዚህ ዓለም ለፍርድ መጣሁ አለ።

⁴⁰And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?

⁴⁰ከፈሪሳውያንም ከእርሱ ጋር የነበሩት ይህን ሰምተው። እኛ ደግሞ ዕውሮች ነንን? አሉት።

⁴¹Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

⁴¹ኢየሱስም አላቸው። ዕውሮችስ ብትሆኑ ኃጢአት ባልሆነባችሁም ነበር፤ አሁን ግን። እናያለን ትላላችሁ፤ ኃጢአታችሁ ይኖራል።
