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

¹In gredoč mimo, ugleda človeka, ki je bil slep od rojstva.

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

²In vprašajo ga učenci njegovi, rekoč: Rabi, kdo je grešil: ta ali roditelji njegovi, da se je slep rodil?

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

³Jezus odgovori: Grešil ni ne ta, ne roditelji njegovi, temuč da se razodenejo dela Božja na njem.

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

⁴Jaz moram delati dela tega, ki me je poslal, dokler je dan; pride noč, ko nihče ne bo mogel delati.

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

⁵Dokler sem na svetu, sem luč sveta.

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

⁶Rekši to, pljune na zemljo in napravi blato iz sline in pomaže z blatom slepcu oči

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

⁷in mu reče: Pojdi, umij se v kopeli Siloamu (kar se tolmači: Poslan). Odide torej in se umije, ter se vrne z vidom.

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

⁸A sosedje, in kateri so ga prej videli, da je bil berač, govore: Ni li ta, ki je sedel in prosjačil?

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

⁹Drugi pravijo: On je; drugi pa: Ni, le podoben mu je. Sam pravi: Jaz sem.

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

¹⁰Reko mu torej: Kako pa so se ti odprle oči?

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.”

¹¹On odgovori: Človek, ki se imenuje Jezus, je napravil blato, in mi je pomazal oči in mi rekel: Pojdi v Siloam in umij se. Šel sem torej in se umil, in sem izpregledal.

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

¹²Reko mu: Kje je on? Reče: Ne vem.

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

¹³Peljejo ga k farizejem, tega, ki je bil nekdaj slep.

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

¹⁴Bila je pa sobota tisti dan, ko je Jezus naredil blato in mu odprl oči.

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.”

¹⁵Zdaj ga torej vprašujejo tudi farizeji, kako je izpregledal. On jim pa reče: Blato mi je dal na oči, in umil sem se in vidim.

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.

¹⁶Tedaj reko nekateri izmed farizejev: Ta človek ni od Boga, ker sobote ne posvečuje. Drugi pravijo: Kako more človek grešnik take čudeže delati? In razpor je bil med njimi.

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

¹⁷Zopet reko slepcu: Kaj ti praviš o njem, ker ti je odprl oči? On pa reče: Prorok je.

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,

¹⁸Judje torej niso verjeli, da je bil slep in da je izpregledal, dokler niso poklicali roditeljev tega, ki je izpregledal.

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

¹⁹In jih vprašajo, rekoč: Je li vaš ta sin, ki o njem pravite, da se je slep rodil? Kako pa sedaj vidi?

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

²⁰Odgovore jim roditelji njegovi in reko: Vemo, da je ta sin naš in da se je slep rodil;

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.”

²¹kako pa sedaj vidi, ne vemo, ali kdo mu je oči odprl, tudi ne vemo. Njega vprašajte, leta ima, naj govori sam zase.

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.

²²To so rekli roditelji njegovi zato, ker so se bali Judov; zakaj Judje so se bili že dogovorili, naj se izobči iz shodnice, kdor bi ga pripoznal za Kristusa.

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

²³Zato so roditelji njegovi rekli: Leta ima, njega vprašajte.

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.”

²⁴Pokličejo torej drugič človeka, ki je bil slep, in mu reko: Daj Bogu čast! mi vemo, da je ta človek grešnik.

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.”

²⁵On pa odgovori: Če je grešnik, ne vem; eno vem, da sem bil slep, in da sedaj vidim.

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

²⁶Reko mu torej: Kaj ti je storil? Kako ti je odprl oči?

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?”

²⁷Odgovori jim: Saj sem vam že povedal, in niste slišali; čemu hočete zopet slišati? Ali hočete tudi vi postati njegovi učenci?

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

²⁸Oni pa ga opsujejo in reko: Ti si njegov učenec; mi smo Mojzesovi učenci.

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

²⁹Mi vemo, da je z Mojzesom govoril Bog; za tega pa ne vemo, odkod je.

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

³⁰Človek odgovori in jim reče: To je pa res čudno, da vi ne veste, odkod je, in vendar mi je odprl oči!

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

³¹Vemo pa, da grešnikov Bog ne sliši, ampak če kdo časti Boga in izpolnjuje voljo njegovo, tega sliši.

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

³²Od vekomaj se ni slišalo, da bi bil kdo odprl oči od rojstva slepemu.

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

³³Ko ta ne bi bil od Boga, ne bi mogel ničesar storiti.

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

³⁴Odgovore in mu reko: Ves v grehih si se rodil, pa boš ti nas učil? In ga pahnejo ven.

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

³⁵Jezus zasliši, da so ga vrgli ven, in ko ga najde, mu reče: Veruješ li v Sina Božjega?

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

³⁶On odgovori in reče: In kdo je, Gospod, da bi veroval vanj?

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

³⁷Jezus mu reče: Videl si ga, in ki s teboj govori, ta je.

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

³⁸On pa reče: Verujem, Gospod! in ga moli.

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.”

³⁹In Jezus veli: Na sodbo sem prišel jaz na ta svet, da izpregledajo, kateri ne vidijo, in kateri vidijo, da oslepe.

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

⁴⁰In slišijo to izmed farizejev tisti, ki so bili ž njim, in mu reko: Ali smo tudi mi slepi?Jezus jim reče: Ko bi bili slepi, ne bi imeli greha; sedaj pa pravite: Vidimo; zato greh vaš ostaja.

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

⁴¹Jezus jim reče: Ko bi bili slepi, ne bi imeli greha; sedaj pa pravite: Vidimo; zato greh vaš ostaja.
