¹Huan, Jesun a pai kawmin a pian tunga kipan mittaw khat a mu a.

¹As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth.

²Huan, a nungjuiten a kiangah, Rabbi, mitto saa a pian kuan ahia thil hihkhial, hia mi hia, a nu leh a pan? a chi ua, a dong ua.

²His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”

³Jesun, Hiai min a hih khial kei, a nu leh a pan leng a hihkhail kei uh; Pathian nasepte a tung a latna ding ahi jaw.

³Jesus answered, “Neither did this man sin, nor his parents; but, that the works of God might be revealed in him.

⁴Sun a hihlaiin honsawlpa na I sep ding uhi; jan hi dekdekta ahi, huai hun chiangin kuamahin na a sem theikei ding uh.

⁴ I must work the works of him who sent me, while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.

⁵Khovela ka om sungin khovel vak ka hi, a chi a, a dawnga.

⁵ While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”

⁶Huchibanga a gen khitin, leiah chil a sia a, chilin tungman a bawla, huan tungman tuh a mit ah a nuha, huan, a kiangah, Siloam dil ah vasil in, a chi a. (Siloam tuh, Sawl, chihna a hi)

⁶When he had said this, he spat on the ground, made mud with the saliva, anointed the blind man’s eyes with the mud,

⁷Huan, avapaia, a sila, mitvakin a hongkik nawnta hi.

⁷and said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which means “Sent”). So he went away, washed, and came back seeing.

⁸Huchiin, a vengte leh tumaa khutdoha mumuten, Hiai mi tu kawma khutdoh dohpa ahi ka hia? a chi ua.

⁸The neighbors therefore, and those who saw that he was blind before, said, “Isn’t this he who sat and begged?”

⁹Midangin, Amah ahi vo oi, a chi ua. Midangin, A hi kei, a kibatpih ahi jaw, a chi ua. Aman, Huai amah ka hi, a chi a.

⁹Others were saying, “It is he.” Still others were saying, “He looks like him.” He said, “I am he.”

¹⁰Huan, amau a kiangah, Na mit bangchin ahia a hong vak? a chi ua.

¹⁰They therefore were asking him, “How were your eyes opened?”

¹¹Aman, Jesu a chih un tungman a bawla, ka mitah a nuih a, Siloam dil ah vahoh in silin, a honchi a, huchiin, ka vahoha, ka sil a, mitvakna ka muta ahi, a chi.

¹¹He answered, “A man called Jesus made mud, anointed my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash.’ So I went away and washed, and I received sight.”

¹²Huan, amau a kiangah, Amah kaw om ahia? a chi ua. Aman, Ka theikei, a chi a.

¹²Then they asked him, “Where is he?” He said, “I don’t know.”

¹³Huai maa mittopa tuh Pharisaite kiangah a honpi ua.

¹³They brought him who had been blind to the Pharisees.

¹⁴Jesun tungman a bawla, a mit a hihvak ni Khawlni ahi a.

¹⁴It was a Sabbath when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.

¹⁵Huchiin, Pharisaiten a mit a hongvak takdan a dong nawn ua. Aman a kiang uah, Ka mit ah tungman a koiha, ka sil, ka mu theita maimah hi, a chi a.

¹⁵Again therefore the Pharisees also asked him how he received his sight. He said to them, “He put mud on my eyes, I washed, and I see.”

¹⁶Huan, Pharisai khenkhatin, Huai mi tuh Khawlni a tan louh jiakin, Pathiana kipan ahi kei, a chi ua. Khenkhatin bel, Mi khialin bangchin hichi bang thillamdang a hih thei dia? a chi ua. Huan, a kikhen ua, a kilangta uh.

¹⁶Some therefore of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, because he doesn’t keep the Sabbath.” Others said, “How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?” There was division among them.

¹⁷Huan, mittopa kiangah, Na mit a hihvak, nang bangchi bangin amah na ngaihtuah? a chi nawn ua. Huan, aman, Jawlnei ahi, a chi a.

¹⁷Therefore they asked the blind man again, “What do you say about him, because he opened your eyes?” He said, “He is a prophet.”

¹⁸Himahleh, Judaten a mit hongvak ta nu leh pa a sap masiah uh, mittaw a nahi hima, a mit a hongvakta chih, a tungtang thu a taksang kei uh.

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 who had received his sight,

¹⁹Huan, a nu leh a pa kiangah, Hiai mi, na tapa uh mitto saa piang ahi na chih uh ahi hia? Bangchin ahia tua a muh theih tak? Chiin a dong ua.

¹⁹and asked them, “Is this your son, whom you say was born blind? How then does he now see?”

²⁰Huan, a nu leh a pan. Hiai tuh ka tapa uh ahi chih ka thei uh, mitto sain a piang chih leng ka thei uh;

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

²¹himahleh, bangchin ahia tua honmuh theih tak chih ka theikei uh, a mit hihvakpa leng ka thei sam kei uh; amah dong un; piching a hina; amah thu aman gen leh ake, a chi ua, a dawng uh.

²¹but how he now sees, we don’t know; or who opened his eyes, we don’t know. He is of age. Ask him. He will speak for himself.”

²²Judate a kihtak jiak un a nu leh a pan tuh huai thute a gen uhi; Judaten, huai ma himin leng, Amah jaw Kris ahi, chia gum a om leh, kikhopna in a nong ding chih a lemsa chit ngal ua.

²²His parents said these things because they feared the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if any man would confess him as Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.

²³Huai jiakin ahi, a nu leh a pan, Piching ahi, amah dong un, a chih uh.

²³Therefore his parents said, “He is of age. Ask him.”

²⁴Huchiin, mittopa a sam nawn ua, a kiangah, Pathian phatin hiai mi jaw mi khial ahi chih ka thei uh, a chi ua.

²⁴So they called the man who was blind a second time, and said to him, “Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.”

²⁵Huan, aman, Mi khial ahi hia hi lou ka theikei, thu khat ka thei, tumain ka mit a taw a, tuin ka mu theita hi, a chi a, a dawng a.

²⁵He therefore answered, “I don’t know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know: that though I was blind, now I see.”

²⁶Huan, amau a kiang ah, Na tungah bangchin ahia a hih? Na mit bangchin ahia a hihvak? a chi ua.

²⁶They said to him again, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”

²⁷Huan, aman a kiang uah, Denin kon hilhta a ka, na thei nuam ngal kei ua; bang achia thei nuam nawn na hi ua? Nou leng a nungjuite hihsam na ut ua hia? Chiin, a dawng a.

²⁷He answered them, “I told you already, and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t also want to become his disciples, do you?”

²⁸Huan, amau atai ua, Nang amah nungjui na hi, kou jaw Mosi nungjuite ka hi uh.

²⁸They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

²⁹Pathianin Mosi a houpih chih ka thei uh, hiai mi phiangsan koia hongkipan ahia ka theihsak kei uh, a chi ua.

²⁹We know that God has spoken to Moses. But as for this man, we don’t know where he comes from.”

³⁰Huan, huai min a kiang uah, Huaipen tak ahi, a lamdanna, koia hongkipan ahia na theih louh uh, kamit lah a hihvak ngei ngala.

³⁰The man answered them, “How amazing! You don’t know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes.

³¹Pathianin mi khial thu a ngaikhe kei nak chih I thei uh; himahleh, kuapeuhin Pathian a limsaka, a deihlam a hih leh, Pathianin amah a ngaikhe nak hi.

³¹We know that God doesn’t listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshipper of God, and does his will, he listens to him. Psalm 66:18, Proverbs 15:29; 28:9

³²Khovel om tunga kipan kuaman mitto saa piang mit a hihvak nawn chih a kithei ngei kei.

³²Since the world began it has never been heard of that anyone opened the eyes of someone born blind.

³³Hiai mi Pathian kianga pawt a hih keileh, bangmah a hih theikei ding, a chi a, a dawnga.

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

³⁴Huan, amau a kiangah, Nang khial lumleta piang naka, nang non hilh vial maw? a chi ua, a dawng ua. Huchiin, amah tuh a delhkhe ta uh.

³⁴They answered him, “You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?” They threw him out.

³⁵Huan, a delh khia uh chih Jesun a naja a; huan, a zong khia a, Pathian Tapa na gingta hia? a chi a.

³⁵Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, and finding him, he said, “Do you believe in the Son of God?”

³⁶Huan, aman, Pu, amah kua ahia, ka gintak theihna din? a chi a, a dawnga.

³⁶He answered, “Who is he, Lord, that I may believe in him?”

³⁷Jesun a kiangah, Amah na mu khinta a, nang honhoupihpa ahi, a chi a.

³⁷Jesus said to him, “You have both seen him, and it is he who speaks with you.”

³⁸Huan, aman, Toupa, ka gingta hi, a chi a, amah a bia a.

³⁸He said, “Lord, I believe!” and he worshiped him.

³⁹Huan, Jesun, Thukhen dingin hiai khovel ah hong ka hi, mittawte a mit uh a hong vakna ding leh, mitvakte a mit uh a hongtawtna dingin, a chi a.

³⁹Jesus said, “I came into this world for judgment, that those who don’t see may see; and that those who see may become blind.”

⁴⁰Huan, a kianga Pharisai omten, huai thu a jak un, a kiangah, Kou leng mittaw ka hi sam u maw? a chi ua.Huan, Jesun a kiang uah, Mittaw anahi tale uchiin khelhna na neikei ding uh, himahleh, Ka mu thei uh, tuin na chih jiakun na khelhna uh a om gige hi.

⁴⁰Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him, “Are we also blind?”

⁴¹Huan, Jesun a kiang uah, Mittaw anahi tale uchiin khelhna na neikei ding uh, himahleh, Ka mu thei uh, tuin na chih jiakun na khelhna uh a om gige hi.

⁴¹Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, ‘We see.’ Therefore your sin remains.
