1And as he passed by, he saw a man blind from his birth.
1 Amoon na fu Yeesu jaaroon, gis fa waa ju judduwaale gumba.
2And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned, this man, or his parents, that he should be born blind?
2 Taalibeem ya laaj ko ne: «Kilifa gi, lu tax waa jii judduwaale gumba? Ndax bàkkaaram a ko waral, walla bu waajuram?»
3Jesus answered, Neither did this man sin, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
3 Yeesu tontu ne: «Ajuwul ci bàkkaaram walla ci bu waajuram. Waaye loolu dafa am, ngir jëfi Yàlla yi feeñ ci moom.
4We must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
4 Bëccëg lanu war a matal jëfi ki ma yónni; guddi dina ñëwi, goo xam ne kenn du ci man a liggéey.
5When I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
5 Ci bi may nekk àddina, maay leeru àddina.»
6When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and anointed his eyes with the clay,
6 Bi Yeesu waxee loolu ba noppi, dafa daldi tifli, jaxase lor wa ak ban, tay ko ci bëti gumba ga ne ko:
7and said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam (which is by interpretation, Sent). He went away therefore, and washed, and came seeing.
7 «Demal sëlmu ci bëtu Silowe.» Silowe mi ngi tekki «Yónni nañu ko.» Gumba ga daldi dem sëlmuji, dellusi di gis.
8The neighbors therefore, and they that saw him aforetime, that he was a beggar, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?
8 Dëkkandoom yi ak ñi ko xame woon bu jëkk ci yelwaan naan: «Xanaa du kii moo daan toog, di yelwaan?»
9Others said, It is he: others said, No, but he is like him. He said, I am [he].
9 Ñii naan: «Moom la de!» Ñee naan: «Du moom! Dañoo niroo rekk.» Mu daldi leen ne: «Man la de!»
10They said therefore unto him, How then were thine eyes opened?
10 Ñu ne ko: «Lu ubbi say bët?»
11He answered, The man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to Siloam, and wash: so I went away and washed, and I received sight.
11 Mu tontu ne: «Ku ñuy wax Yeesu moo tooyal ban, tay ko ci samay bët, ne ma: “Demal sëlmu ci bëtu Silowe.” Ma dem nag sëlmuji, daldi gis.»
12And they said unto him, Where is he? He saith, I know not.
12 Ñu ne ko: «Ana waa ji?» Mu ne leen: «Xawma fu mu nekk.»
13They bring to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.
13 Noonu ñu daldi indil Farisen yi nit ki gumba woon.
14Now it was the sabbath on the day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
14 Ndekete Yeesu, bés bi mu tooyale ban, ubbi bëti gumba ga, bésu noflaay la woon.
15Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. And he said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and I see.
15 Looloo tax Farisen ya di laajaat waa ja fi mu jaar bay gis léegi. Mu ne leen: «Dafa tay ban ci samay bët, ma sëlmuji, ba fi ma nekk maa ngi gis.»
16Some therefore of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, because he keepeth not the sabbath. But others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such signs? And there was division among them.
16 Ci noonu am ca Farisen ya ñu naan: «Ki def lii, mënul a jóge ca Yàlla, ndaxte toppul ndigalu bésu noflaay bi.» Ñeneen it di wax ne: «Nan la boroom bàkkaar man a wonee yii firnde?» Noonu ñu daldi féewaloo ci seen biir.
17They say therefore unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, in that he opened thine eyes? And he said, He is a prophet.
17 Farisen ya laajaat ka gumba woon ne ko: «Yaw, loo wax ci moom? Yaw de la ubbil say bët.» Mu ne leen: «Yonent la.»
18The Jews therefore did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight,
18 Yawut ya mënuñu woon a nangu ne, nit ka dafa gumba woon tey gis léegi, ñu daldi wooluji ay waajuram,
19and asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? How then doth he now see?
19 laaj leen ne: «Ndax kii mooy seen doom, ji ngeen ne, gumba judduwaale la? Kon fu mu jaar, bay gis léegi?»
20His parents answered and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
20 Waajur ya tontu ne: «Xam nanu ne daal, sunu doom la te dafa judduwaale gumba.
21but how he now seeth, we know not; or who opened his eyes, we know not: ask him; he is of age; he shall speak for himself.
21 Waaye ni mu def léegi bay gis, xamunu ko, te xamunu it ki ko ubbil ay bëtam. Laajleen ko; magum jëmm la, te man na tontul boppam.»
22These things said his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man should confess him [to be] Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.
22 Ragal Yawut ya nag moo taxoon waajuri nit ka waxe noonu, ndaxte Yawut ya dañoo mànkoo woon ne, képp ku seede ne Yeesu mooy Almasi bi, ñu dàq la ca jàngu ba.
23Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
23 Looloo tax waajur ya ne: «Laajleen ko; magum jëmm la.»
24So they called a second time the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give glory to God: we know that this man is a sinner.
24 Farisen ya dellu woowaat ka gumba woon ne ko: «Waxal sa digganteek Yàlla. Xam nanu ne, waa joojee boroom bàkkaar la.»
25He therefore answered, Whether he is a sinner, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.
25 Mu tontu ne: «Xawma ndax boroom bàkkaar la am déet. Li ma xam daal mooy gumba woon naa, te léegi maa ngi gis.»
26They said therefore unto him, What did he to thee? How opened he thine eyes?
26 Ñu laaj ko ne: «Lu mu la def? Nu mu la ubbile say bët?»
27He answered them, I told you even now, and ye did not hear; wherefore would ye hear it again? would ye also become his disciples?
27 Mu ne leen: «Wax naa leen ko ba noppi, waaye dégluwuleen ma. Lu ngeen bëgg ci ma di ko wax, di waxaat? Xanaa dangeen a bëgg a nekk yéen itam ay taalibeem?»
28And they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are disciples of Moses.
28 Ci kaw loolu ñu daldi ko saaga ne ko: «Yaw yaay taalibeem. Nun, taalibey Musaa lanu.
29We know that God hath spoken unto Moses: but as for this man, we know not whence he is.
29 Xam nanu ne, Yàlla wax na ak Musaa; waaye kii, xamunu sax fu mu jóge.»
30The man answered and said unto them, Why, herein is the marvel, that ye know not whence he is, and [yet] he opened mine eyes.
30 Waa ja ne leen: «Loolu de, doy na waar! Xamuleen fu mu jóge, te moo ubbi samay bët!
31We know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and do his will, him he heareth.
31 Xam nanu ne, Yàlla du déglu boroom bàkkaar. Waaye nag, dina déglu ki koy ragal tey def coobareem.
32Since the world began it was never heard that any one opened the eyes of a man born blind.
32 Bi àddina sosoo ba tey, musuñoo dégg nit ku ubbi bëti gumbag judduwaale.
33If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.
33 Kon nit kookee nag, bu jógewul woon ca Yàlla, du man a def dara.»
34They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
34 Ñu tontu ko ne: «Yaw, ci biir bàkkaar nga juddoo, ba noppi di nu jàngal?» Noonu ñu dàq ko ca jàngu ba.
35Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and finding him, he said, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?
35 Yeesu daldi yég ne, dàq nañu nit ka. Bi mu dajeek moom, mu ne ko: «Ndax gëm nga Doomu nit ki?»
36He answered and said, And who is he, Lord, that I may believe on him?
36 Waa ja ne ko: «Wax ma mooy kan, Sang bi, ba ma man koo gëm.»
37Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and he it is that speaketh with thee.
37 Yeesu ne ko: «Gis nga ko ba noppi, te mooy kiy wax ak yaw.»
38And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.
38 Waa ja ne: «Boroom bi, gëm naa la.» Noonu mu jaamu Yeesu.
39And Jesus said, For judgment came I into this world, that they that see not may see; and that they that see may become blind.
39 Yeesu ne ko: «Àttee ma tax a ñëw àddina, ngir ñi gumba gis, ñiy gis gumba.»
40Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said unto him, Are we also blind?
40 Bi Farisen ya nekkoon ak moom déggee loolu, ñu ne ko: «Xanaa kon nun it danoo gumba?»
41Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye would have no sin: but now ye say, We see: your sin remaineth.
41 Yeesu tontu leen ne: «Bu ngeen gumba woon, dungeen am bàkkaar, waaye fi ak yéena ngi naan: “Nu ngi gis,” ci bàkkaar ngeen di dëkk.
