Jesus Heals a Blind Man
1 While he was walking along, he saw a man [who had been] blind since his birth. 2 His disciples asked him, “Teacher, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” 3 Jesus answered, “Neither he nor his parents sinned, but he was born blind so that the works of God might be seen in him. 4 As long as it's daytime, we must do the work of the one who sent me. Night will come, and no one will be able to work at that [time]. 5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
عيسى يشفي الأعمى
1 وَبَيْنَمَا هُوَ سَائِرٌ رَأَى رَجُلًا أَعْمَى مُنْذُ وِلَادَتِهِ. 2 فَسَأَلَهُ تَلَامِيذُهُ: ”يَا مُعَلِّمُ، مَنْ أَخْطَأَ، هَذَا الرَّجُلُ أَمْ وَالِدَاهُ حَتَّى وُلِدَ أَعْمَى؟“ 3 أَجَابَ عِيسَى: ”لَا هُوَ أَخْطَأَ وَلَا وَالِدَاهُ، وَلَكِنَّهُ وُلِدَ أَعْمَى لِكَيْ تَظْهَرَ فِيهِ أَعْمَالُ اللهِ. 4 مَا دَامَ الْوَقْتُ نَهَارًا، فَيَجِبُ أَنْ نَعْمَلَ أَعْمَالَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَنِي. سَيَأْتِي اللَّيْلُ، وَلَا يَقْدِرُ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَعْمَلَ فِيهِ. 5 مَا دُمْتُ فِي الْعَالَمِ فَأَنَا نُورُ الْعَالَمِ.“
6 When he had said this, he spit on the ground, made mud with the saliva, and put the mud on the blind man's eyes. 7 Then he said to him, “Go and wash in the Pool of Siloam.*” (This means “Messenger.”) So he went and washed, and he came back able to see.
6 وَلَمَّا قَالَ هَذَا، بَصَقَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ، وَصَنَعَ طِينًا مِنَ الْبُصَاقِ، وَوَضَعَ الطِّينَ عَلَى عَيْنَيِ الرَّجُلِ، 7 وَقَالَ لَهُ: ”اِذْهَبْ وَاغْتَسِلْ فِي بِرْكَةِ سِلْوَانَ.“* أَيْ رَسُولٍ. فَذَهَبَ وَاغْتَسَلَ، وَرَجَعَ مُبْصِرًا.
8 The neighbors and those who had known him as a beggar said, “Isn't this the man who used to sit and beg?” 9 Some said, “Yes,” and others said, “No, however, he does look like him.” As for him, he said, “I am he.” 10 They said to him, “Then how were your eyes opened?” 11 He answered, “The man called Jesus made mud, put it on my eyes, and said to me, ‘Go to Siloam and wash.’ So I went and washed, and I could see.” 12 They said to him, “Where is he?” He said, “I don't know.”
8 فَالْجِيرَانُ وَالَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَعْرِفُونَ مِنْ قَبْلُ أَنَّهُ شَحَّاتٌ قَالُوا: ”أَلَيْسَ هَذَا هُوَ الرَّجُلَ الَّذِي كَانَ يَقْعُدُ وَيَتَسَوَّلُ؟“ 9 قَالَ الْبَعْضُ: ”نَعَمْ.“ وَقَالَ آخَرُونَ: ”لَا، بَلْ يُشْبِهُهُ.“ أَمَّا هُوَ فَقَالَ: ”أَنَا هُوَ.“ 10 فَقَالُوا لَهُ: ”إِذَنْ كَيْفَ انْفَتَحَتْ عَيْنَاكَ؟“ 11 أَجَابَ: ”الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي اسْمُهُ عِيسَى، صَنَعَ طِينًا وَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى عَيْنَيَّ وَقَالَ لِي: ’اِذْهَبْ إِلَى سِلْوَانَ وَاغْتَسِلْ.‘ فَذَهَبْتُ وَاغْتَسَلْتُ وَأَصْبَحْتُ أَرَى.“ 12 فَقَالُوا لَهُ: ”أَيْنَ هُوَ؟“ قَالَ: ”لَا أَعْرِفُ.“
The Pharisees Interrogate the Man
13 They took the man who had been blind to the Pharisees. 14 Now, the day on which Jesus had made the mud and opened the blind man's eyes was a Saturday. 15 The Pharisees as well asked him how he could see. He said to them, “He put mud on my eyes, and I washed, and [now] I can see.” 16 Some of the Pharisees said, “This man [Jesus] is not from God, because he violates the law [to rest on] Saturday.”* Others said, “How could it be possible for a sinful man to do miraculous signs like these?” So a dispute occurred among them.
الفريسيون يستجوبون الرجل
13 فَأَخَذُوا الَّذِي كَانَ أَعْمَى إِلَى الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ. 14 وَكَانَ الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي عَمِلَ فِيهِ عِيسَى الطِّينَ وَفَتَحَ عَيْنَيِ الْأَعْمَى، هُوَ يَوْمَ سَبْتٍ. 15 فَسَأَلَهُ الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ أَيْضًا كَيْفَ أَصْبَحَ يَرَى. قَالَ لَهُمْ: ”وَضَعَ طِينًا عَلَى عَيْنَيَّ وَاغْتَسَلْتُ، فَأَنَا أَرَى.“ 16 فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ: ”هَذَا الرَّجُلُ لَيْسَ مِنَ اللهِ لِأَنَّهُ يُخَالِفُ شَرِيعَةَ السَّبْتِ.“* وَقَالَ آخَرُونَ: ”كَيْفَ يُمْكِنُ لِرَجُلٍ خَاطِئٍ أَنْ يَعْمَلَ مِثْلَ هَذِهِ الْآيَاتِ؟“ فَوَقَعَ الْخِلَافُ بَيْنَهُمْ.
17 They asked the blind man again, “And you, since he has opened your eyes, what's your opinion of him?” He answered, “He's a prophet.” 18 But the Jewish leaders didn't believe that he had been blind and became able to see, so they summoned his parents 19 and asked them, “Is this your son that you say was born blind? How can he see now?” 20 His parents answered, “We know that this is our son and that he was born blind, 21 but as for how he can see now and who opened his eyes, we don't know. Ask him; he can answer for himself, since he's an adult.”
17 فَسَأَلُوا الْأَعْمَى مَرَّةً أُخْرَى: ”وَأَنْتَ بِمَا أَنَّهُ فَتَحَ عَيْنَيْكَ، مَا رَأْيُكَ فِيهِ؟“ أَجَابَ: ”إِنَّهُ نَبِيٌّ.“ 18 لَكِنَّ قَادَةَ الْيَهُودِ لَمْ يُصَدِّقُوا أَنَّهُ كَانَ أَعْمَى وَأَصْبَحَ يَرَى، حَتَّى اسْتَدْعَوْا وَالِدَيْهِ 19 وَسَأَلُوهُمَا: ”هَلْ هَذَا ابْنُكُمَا الَّذِي تَقُولَانِ إِنَّهُ وُلِدَ أَعْمَى؟ فَكَيْفَ يَرَى الْآنَ؟“ 20 أَجَابَ وَالِدَاهُ: ”نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا ابْنُنَا، وَأَنَّهُ وُلِدَ أَعْمَى. 21 أَمَّا كَيْفَ يَرَى الْآنَ، وَمَنْ فَتَحَ عَيْنَيْهِ، فَلَا نَعْلَمُ. اِسْأَلُوهُ هُوَ، فَهُوَ يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يُجَاوِبَ عَنْ نَفْسِهِ لِأَنَّهُ بَالِغٌ.“
22 His parents said this due to their fear of the Jewish leaders, because the leaders had agreed together that whoever testified that Jesus was the Messiah would be banned from the house of worship. 23 That's why his parents said, “Ask him, since he's an adult.”
22 قَالَ وَالِدَاهُ هَذَا لِخَوْفِهِمَا مِنْ قَادَةِ الْيَهُودِ، لِأَنَّ الْقَادَةَ اتَّفَقُوا مَعًا أَنَّ مَنْ يَشْهَدُ بِأَنَّ عِيسَى هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ، يُمْنَعُ مِنْ بَيْتِ الْعِبَادَةِ. 23 وَلِهَذَا قَالَ وَالِدَاهُ: ”اِسْأَلُوهُ هُوَ لِأَنَّهُ بَالِغٌ.“
24 For the second time, the Pharisees summoned the man who had been blind and said to him, “We put you under oath by God to tell the truth. We know that this man is a sinner.” 25 He answered, “Sinner or not — I don't know. But I do know one thing: I was blind, and now I see.” 26 They said to him, “What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?”
24 وَلِلْمَرَّةِ الثَّانِيَةِ اسْتَدْعَى الْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ الرَّجُلَ الَّذِي كَانَ أَعْمَى وَقَالُوا لَهُ: ”نُحَلِّفُكَ بِاللّٰهِ أَنْ تَقُولَ الْحَقَّ. نَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ خَاطِئٌ.“ 25 أَجَابَ: ”خَاطِئٌ أَوْ غَيْرُ خَاطِئٍ، أَنَا لَا أَعْلَمُ. إِنَّمَا أَعْلَمُ شَيْئًا وَاحِدًا: أَنِّي كُنْتُ أَعْمَى وَالْآنَ أَرَى.“ 26 قَالُوا لَهُ: ”مَاذَا عَمِلَ لَكَ؟ كَيْفَ فَتَحَ عَيْنَيْكَ؟“
27 He answered them, “I told you, but you didn't listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you wish to become his disciples, too?” 28 They insulted him and said, “You are his disciple; as for us, we are disciples of Moses. 29 We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this person, we don't know where he's from.”
27 أَجَابَهُمْ: ”قُلْتُ لَكُمْ وَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا. لِمَاذَا تُرِيدُونَ أَنْ تَسْتَمِعُوا مَرَّةً ثَانِيَةً؟ هَلْ أَنْتُمْ أَيْضًا تَرْغَبُونَ فِي أَنْ تَكُونُوا تَلَامِيذَهُ؟“ 28 فَشَتَمُوهُ وَقَالُوا: ”أَنْتَ تِلْمِيذُهُ أَمَّا نَحْنُ فَتَلَامِيذُ مُوسَى. 29 نَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ مُوسَى كَلَّمَهُ اللهُ، أَمَّا هَذَا الشَّخْصُ فَلَا نَعْلَمُ مِنْ أَيْنَ هُوَ.“
30 The man answered them, “Amazing! You don't know where he's from, even though he opened my eyes! 31 We know that God grants the requests of anyone who is godly and does his will, but he doesn't grant the requests of sinners. 32 We have never heard about anyone in all of history who opened the eyes of a person born blind. 33 So if this man weren't from God, he would not have been able to do a thing.” 34 They answered him, “You have been full of sins from your birth, and you want to teach us?” Then they threw him out.
30 أَجَابَهُمُ الرَّجُلُ: ”عَجَبًا! أَنْتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ مِنْ أَيْنَ هُوَ مَعَ أَنَّهُ فَتَحَ عَيْنَيَّ! 31 نَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ اللهَ يَسْتَجِيبُ لِمَنِ اتَّقَاهُ وَعَمِلَ إِرَادَتَهُ، وَلَا يَسْتَجِيبُ لِلْخَاطِئِينَ. 32 وَلَمْ نَسْمَعْ فِي التَّارِيخِ كُلِّهِ عَنْ وَاحِدٍ فَتَحَ عَيْنَيْ شَخْصٍ وُلِدَ أَعْمَى. 33 فَلَوْ كَانَ هَذَا الرَّجُلُ لَيْسَ مِنَ اللهِ، لَمَا اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ يَعْمَلَ شَيْئًا.“ 34 فَأَجَابُوهُ: ”أَنْتَ مَمْلُوءٌ بِالذُّنُوبِ مُنْذُ وِلَادَتِكَ، وَتُرِيدُ أَنْ تُعَلِّمَنَا؟“ وَطَرَدُوهُ خَارِجًا.
Spiritual Blindness
35 Jesus heard that they had thrown him out. He found him and said to him, “Do you believe in the One Who Became Man?” 36 [The man] replied, “Who is he, sir, so that I may believe in him?” 37 Jesus said to him, “You have seen him, and he is the one speaking to you.” 38 He said, “I believe, Master.” And he bowed down to him. 39 Jesus said, “I have come to this world to render the judgment that those who don't see will [now] see, and those who [now] see will become blind.”
العمى الروحي
35 وَسَمِعَ عِيسَى أَنَّهُمْ طَرَدُوهُ، وَلَقِيَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ: ”أَتُؤْمِنُ بِالَّذِي صَارَ بَشَرًا؟“ 36 أَجَابَهُ: ”مَنْ هُوَ يَا سَيِّدِي، لِكَيْ أُؤْمِنَ بِهِ؟“ 37 قَالَ لَهُ عِيسَى: ”أَنْتَ رَأَيْتَهُ، وَهُوَ الَّذِي يُكَلِّمُكَ.“ 38 قَالَ: ”آمَنْتُ يَا سَيِّدِي.“ وَسَجَدَ لَهُ. 39 فَقَالَ عِيسَى: ”جِئْتُ إِلَى هَذَا الْعَالَمِ لِكَيْ أَحْكُمَ بِأَنْ يَرَى الَّذِينَ لَا يَرَوْنَ، وَيَعْمَى الَّذِينَ يَرَوْنَ!“
40 Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard him and said, “Are you saying that we are blind as well?” 41 Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would not be guilty; but you say, ‘We see,’ so you are responsible for your guilt.
40 فَسَمِعَهُ بَعْضُ الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَعَهُ، فَقَالُوا: ”هَلْ تَقُولُ إِنَّنَا نَحْنُ أَيْضًا عُمْيٌ؟“ 41 قَالَ لَهُمْ عِيسَى: ”لَوْ كُنْتُمْ عُمْيًا لَمَا كَانَ عَلَيْكُمْ ذَنْبٌ. وَلَكِنَّكُمْ تَقُولُونَ: ’نَحْنُ نَرَى.‘ إِذَنْ فَأَنْتُمْ مَسْؤولُونَ عَنْ ذَنْبِكُمْ.

*9:16 the law [to rest on] Saturday: One of the ten commandments that God gave to Moses said that people should dedicate the seventh day of the week to God and not work on that day (Torah Deuteronomy 5:12-14). The Pharisees expanded this commandment into a large set of religious laws. Jesus did not agree with their laws and did not comply with them, and this angered the Pharisees.
*9:16 شَرِيعَةَ السَّبْتِ: إحدى الوصايا العشر التي سلّمها الله لموسى تنصّ على أنَّه ينبغي للشعب تخصيص اليوم السابع من الأسبوع لله وعدم العمل فيه (التوراة، تثنية 5:12–14). ثُمَّ توسّع الفريسيون في هذه الوصية وجعلوا منها مجموعة كبيرة من الشرائع الدينية. إِلاَّ أنَّ عيسى لم يوافق على شرائعهم ولم يأخذ بها، مِمَّا أثار غضبهم.
