Giovanni 9
La Nuova Diodati
9 Mentre passava, vide un uomo che era cieco fin dalla nascita.
2 E i suoi discepoli lo interrogarono, dicendo: «Maestro, chi ha peccato, lui o i suoi genitori, perché sia nato cieco?».
3 Gesú rispose: «Né lui né i suoi genitori hanno peccato, ma ciò è accaduto, affinché siano manifestate in lui le opere di Dio.
4 Bisogna che io compia le opere di colui che mi ha mandato, mentre è giorno; la notte viene in cui nessuno può operare.
5 Mentre sono nel mondo, io sono la luce del mondo».
6 Dopo aver detto queste cose, sputò in terra, con la saliva fece del fango e ne impiastrò gli occhi del cieco.
7 Poi gli disse: «Va
8 Allora i vicini e quelli che lo avevano visto prima cieco, dissero: «Non è questi colui che stava seduto a mendicare?».
9 Alcuni dicevano: «E' lui». Altri: «Gli assomiglia». Ed egli diceva: «Io sono».
10 Gli dissero dunque: «Come ti sono stati aperti gli occhi?».
11 Egli rispose e disse: «Un uomo, chiamato Gesú, ha fatto del fango, mi ha spalmato gli occhi e mi ha detto: "Va' alla piscina di Siloe e lavati". Ed io vi sono andato, mi sono lavato e ho recuperato la vista».
12 E quelli gli dissero: «Dov'è costui?». Egli rispose: «Non lo so».
13 Allora essi condussero dai farisei colui che prima era stato cieco.
14 Ora era sabato quando Gesú fece del fango e gli aperse gli occhi.
15 Anche i farisei dunque gli domandarono di nuovo come avesse recuperato la vista. Ed egli disse loro: «Mi ha messo del fango sugli occhi, mi sono lavato e ci vedo».
16 Allora alcuni farisei dicevano: «Quest'uomo non è da Dio, perché non osserva il sabato». Altri dicevano: «Come può un uomo peccatore compiere tali segni?». E c'era divisione tra di loro.
17 Chiesero dunque di nuovo al cieco: «E tu, che dici di lui per il fatto che ti ha aperto gli occhi?». Egli disse: «E' un profeta!».
18 Ma i Giudei non credettero che lui fosse stato cieco e avesse riacquistato la vista, finché ebbero chiamato i genitori di colui che aveva riacquistato la vista.
19 E chiesero loro: «E' questo il vostro figlio che voi dite esser nato cieco? Come mai ora ci vede?».
20 I suoi genitori, rispondendo loro dissero: «Noi sappiamo che costui è nostro figlio e che è nato cieco,
21 ma come ora ci veda, o chi gli abbia aperto gli occhi, noi non lo sappiamo domandatelo a lui; egli è adulto, parlerà lui stesso di sé».
22 Questo dissero i suoi genitori, perché avevano paura dei Giudei; infatti i Giudei avevano già stabilito che se uno avesse riconosciuto Gesú come il Cristo, sarebbe stato espulso dalla sinagoga.
23 Perciò i suoi genitori dissero: «E' adulto, chiedetelo a lui».
24 Essi dunque chiamarono di nuovo l'uomo che era stato cieco e gli dissero: «Da' gloria a Dio; noi sappiamo che quest'uomo è peccatore».
25 Egli allora rispose e disse: «Se sia peccatore, non lo so; ma una cosa so, che prima ero cieco e ora ci vedo».
26 Gli chiesero di nuovo: «Che cosa ti ha fatto? Come ti ha aperto gli occhi?».
27 Egli rispose loro: «Io ve l'ho già detto e voi non avete ascoltato, perché volete udirlo di nuovo? Volete forse diventare anche voi suoi discepoli?».
28 Essi perciò l'ingiuriarono e dissero: «Tu sei suo discepolo; ma noi siamo discepoli di Mosé.
29 Noi sappiamo che Dio ha parlato a Mosé, ma quanto a costui non sappiamo da dove venga».
30 Quell'uomo rispose e disse loro: «Ebbene, è molto strano che voi non sappiate da dove venga; eppure egli mi ha aperto gli occhi.
31 Or noi sappiamo che Dio non esaudisce i peccatori, ma se uno è pio verso Dio e fa la sua volontà, egli lo esaudisce.
32 Da che mondo è mondo non si è mai sentito dire che uno abbia aperto gli occhi ad un cieco nato.
33 Se costui non fosse da Dio, non avrebbe potuto fare nulla».
34 Essi risposero e gli dissero: «Tu sei nato completamente nei peccati e vuoi insegnare a noi?». E lo cacciarono fuori.
35 Gesú seppe che l'avevano cacciato fuori e, trovatolo, gli disse: «Credi tu nel Figlio di Dio?».
36 Egli rispose e disse: «Chi è, Signore, perché io creda in lui?».
37 E Gesú gli disse: «Tu l'hai visto, è proprio colui che ti sta parlando»
38 Allora egli disse: «lo credo, Signore»; e l'adorò.
39 Poi Gesú disse: «lo sono venuto in questo mondo per fare un giudizio, affinché quelli che non vedono vedano e quelli che vedono diventino ciechi».
40 Alcuni dei farisei che erano con lui udirono queste cose e gli dissero: «Siamo ciechi anche noi?».
41 Gesú rispose loro: «Se foste ciechi, non avreste alcun peccato; ma siccome dite: "Noi vediamo perciò il vostro peccato rimane».
John 9
King James Version
9 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.
2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.
6 When 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,
7 And 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.
8 The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?
9 Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.
10 Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?
11 He 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.
12 Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.
13 They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.
14 And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
15 Then 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.
16 Therefore 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.
17 They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.
18 But 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.
19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?
20 His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
21 But 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.
22 These 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.
23 Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.
24 Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.
25 He 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.
26 Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?
27 He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?
28 Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.
29 We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.
30 The 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.
31 Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.
32 Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.
33 If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.
34 They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.
35 Jesus 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?
36 He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?
37 And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.
38 And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.
39 And 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.
40 And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?
41 Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

New Living Translation
Jesus Heals a Man Born Blind
9 As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man who had been blind from birth. 2 “Rabbi,” his disciples asked him, “why was this man born blind? Was it because of his own sins or his parents’ sins?”
3 “It was not because of his sins or his parents’ sins,” Jesus answered. “This happened so the power of God could be seen in him. 4 We must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent us.[a] The night is coming, and then no one can work. 5 But while I am here in the world, I am the light of the world.”
6 Then he spit on the ground, made mud with the saliva, and spread the mud over the blind man’s eyes. 7 He told him, “Go wash yourself in the pool of Siloam” (Siloam means “sent”). So the man went and washed and came back seeing!
8 His neighbors and others who knew him as a blind beggar asked each other, “Isn’t this the man who used to sit and beg?” 9 Some said he was, and others said, “No, he just looks like him!”
But the beggar kept saying, “Yes, I am the same one!”
10 They asked, “Who healed you? What happened?”
11 He told them, “The man they call Jesus made mud and spread it over my eyes and told me, ‘Go to the pool of Siloam and wash yourself.’ So I went and washed, and now I can see!”
12 “Where is he now?” they asked.
“I don’t know,” he replied.
13 Then they took the man who had been blind to the Pharisees, 14 because it was on the Sabbath that Jesus had made the mud and healed him. 15 The Pharisees asked the man all about it. So he told them, “He put the mud over my eyes, and when I washed it away, I could see!”
16 Some of the Pharisees said, “This man Jesus is not from God, for he is working on the Sabbath.” Others said, “But how could an ordinary sinner do such miraculous signs?” So there was a deep division of opinion among them.
17 Then the Pharisees again questioned the man who had been blind and demanded, “What’s your opinion about this man who healed you?”
The man replied, “I think he must be a prophet.”
18 The Jewish leaders still refused to believe the man had been blind and could now see, so they called in his parents. 19 They asked them, “Is this your son? Was he born blind? If so, how can he now see?”
20 His parents replied, “We know this is our son and that he was born blind, 21 but we don’t know how he can see or who healed him. Ask him. He is old enough to speak for himself.” 22 His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders, who had announced that anyone saying Jesus was the Messiah would be expelled from the synagogue. 23 That’s why they said, “He is old enough. Ask him.”
24 So for the second time they called in the man who had been blind and told him, “God should get the glory for this,[b] because we know this man Jesus is a sinner.”
25 “I don’t know whether he is a sinner,” the man replied. “But I know this: I was blind, and now I can see!”
26 “But what did he do?” they asked. “How did he heal you?”
27 “Look!” the man exclaimed. “I told you once. Didn’t you listen? Why do you want to hear it again? Do you want to become his disciples, too?”
28 Then they cursed him and said, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses! 29 We know God spoke to Moses, but we don’t even know where this man comes from.”
30 “Why, that’s very strange!” the man replied. “He healed my eyes, and yet you don’t know where he comes from? 31 We know that God doesn’t listen to sinners, but he is ready to hear those who worship him and do his will. 32 Ever since the world began, no one has been able to open the eyes of someone born blind. 33 If this man were not from God, he couldn’t have done it.”
34 “You were born a total sinner!” they answered. “Are you trying to teach us?” And they threw him out of the synagogue.
Spiritual Blindness
35 When Jesus heard what had happened, he found the man and asked, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?[c]”
36 The man answered, “Who is he, sir? I want to believe in him.”
37 “You have seen him,” Jesus said, “and he is speaking to you!”
38 “Yes, Lord, I believe!” the man said. And he worshiped Jesus.
39 Then Jesus told him,[d] “I entered this world to render judgment—to give sight to the blind and to show those who think they see[e] that they are blind.”
40 Some Pharisees who were standing nearby heard him and asked, “Are you saying we’re blind?”
41 “If you were blind, you wouldn’t be guilty,” Jesus replied. “But you remain guilty because you claim you can see.

約 翰 福 音 9
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
耶稣治愈一个天生盲人
9 耶稣行走时，看到一个生来就眼瞎的人， 2 门徒问道∶“拉比（老师），天生眼瞎的人，是谁的罪过呢？是他本人，还是他父母的呢？”
3 耶稣回答说∶“既不是这个人的罪过，也不是他父母的罪过。他天生失明，目的是要显示出上帝的力量。 4 趁着白天，我们必须做派我来的那位的工作；黑夜一来，就没有人能工作了。 5 我在这个世上的时候，就是世上的光。”
6 说完，耶稣朝地上吐了一口唾沫，和了点泥，然后，把泥抹在那盲人的眼睛上， 7 对他说∶“去西罗亚池里洗洗，”（西罗亚的意思是派遣。）于是盲人便去洗了，回来时，他已能看见了。
8 他的邻居们，还有过去看见他乞讨的人说∶“这不是以前坐在那里讨饭的那个人吗？”
9 有些人说∶“是他！”可也有些人说∶“不，他只不过长得像他罢了。”
被治愈的那人说道∶“我就是那个人。”
10 人们便问他∶“你的眼睛是怎样睁开的呢？”
11 他回答他们道∶“一个叫耶稣的人和了点泥，抹在我的眼睛上，然后告诉我∶‘去西罗亚池洗洗。’我去洗了，就可以看见了。”
12 他们问∶“这人在哪里？”
他说∶“我不知道。”
法利赛人的提问
13 人们把获得视力的人带到法利赛人那里。 14 （耶稣和泥治病是在一个安息日做的。） 15 法利赛人问他是怎么获得视力的。
他告诉他们∶“他把泥抹在我眼睛上，然后我去洗掉，就可以看见了。”
16 一些法利赛人开始说∶“这人不是从上帝那里来的，因为，他不守安息日的规定。”
另一些人却说∶“一个罪人怎么能做出这样的奇迹来呢？”因此，他们之间有了争执。
17 他们又问被治好的那个盲人∶“他治好了你们的眼睛，你说他是什么人呢？”
那人说∶“他是先知。”
18 犹太人不相信那人以前是瞎子，现在获得了视力，他们便找来他的父母， 19 问道∶“这是你们的儿子吗？你们说他生来就瞎，那么他现在怎么会看见呢？”
20 他父母说∶“我们知道他是我们儿子，我们知道他天生失明， 21 可是他现在是怎么看见的，又是谁让他睁开了眼晴，我们却不知道。问他去吧！他不是小孩子，会自己说的。” 22 他父母这么说，是因为害怕犹太首领们，因为犹太首领们已经一致同意，凡是承认耶稣是基督的人，都将被开除会堂，所以他父母才说∶ 23 “他不是小孩子，问他去吧！”
24 于是，犹太人又叫来以前瞎眼的那个人，说∶“在上帝面前，说实话。我们知道这个人是罪人。”
25 被治好的那个人说∶“他是不是罪人，我不知道，我只知道一件事情，那就是我以前是瞎子，现在可以看见了！”
26 然后，他们问∶“他对你做了些什么？他怎么让你睁开眼睛的？”
27 那人说∶“我已经告诉过你们了，可是你们根本不听，你们为什么还要再听一遍呢？你们也想做他的门徒吗？”
28 那些人辱骂他道∶“你才是他的门徒呢，我们是摩西的门徒， 29 我们知道上帝曾对摩西说过话，但是，至于这个人，我们不知道他是从哪里来的！”
30 那人回答他们说∶“真是奇怪，你们不知道他从哪里来，可他却让我睁开了眼睛！ 31 我们知道上帝不会听罪人的话，他只垂听献身于他、并遵从他的意愿的人。 32 从来还没听说过，有谁能使天生盲人获得光明呢。 33 这人如果不是来自上帝，他什么事也做不成。”
34 那些人对他说∶“你一生下来就浑身是罪，还想教训我们吗？”于是，他们把他赶出了会堂。
灵上的盲目
35 耶稣听说他们把他赶出了会堂，便找到他，对他说∶“你信仰人子吗？”
那人问： 36 “先生，他是谁？告诉我，好让我信仰他。”
37 耶稣说∶“你已经见到他了，他就是正在和你说话的人。”
38 那人说∶“主，我信。”并跪在地上，拜他。
39 耶稣说∶“我到这世上来是为了审判，好让那些看不见的人 [a]能看见，让看得见的人变成瞎子。”
40 和耶稣一起的一些法利赛人听见这话，便对他说∶“难道我们也瞎眼了吗？”
41 耶稣对他们说∶“如果你们是瞎子，就不会有罪了，但是，现在你们说∶‘我们看得见，’所以，你们的罪仍然在。”
