يوحنَّا 11

١ 1 وَكَانَ إِنْسَانٌ مَرِيضًا وَهُوَ لِعَازَرُ، مِنْ بَيْتِ عَنْيَا مِنْ قَرْيَةِ مَرْيَمَ وَمَرْثَا أُخْتِهَا.

Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.

٢ 2 وَكَانَتْ مَرْيَمُ، ٱلَّتِي كَانَ لِعَازَرُ أَخُوهَا مَرِيضًا، هِيَ ٱلَّتِي دَهَنَتِ ٱلرَّبَّ بِطِيبٍ، وَمَسَحَتْ رِجْلَيْهِ بِشَعْرِهَا.

It was the Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

٣ 3 فَأَرْسَلَتِ ٱلْأُخْتَانِ إِلَيْهِ قَائِلَتَيْنِ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، هُوَذَا ٱلَّذِي تُحِبُّهُ مَرِيضٌ».

These sisters therefore sent to Him, saying, “Lord, one You love is sick!”

٤ 4 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ يَسُوعُ، قَالَ: «هَذَا ٱلْمَرَضُ لَيْسَ لِلْمَوْتِ، بَلْ لِأَجْلِ مَجْدِ ٱللهِ، لِيَتَمَجَّدَ ٱبْنُ ٱللهِ بِهِ».

When Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness won’t end in death, but for God’s glory, so that God’s Son may be glorified by it.”

٥ 5 وَكَانَ يَسُوعُ يُحِبُّ مَرْثَا وَأُخْتَهَا وَلِعَازَرَ.

Now Jesus sincerely loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

٦ 6 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَنَّهُ مَرِيضٌ مَكَثَ حِينَئِذٍ فِي ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ فِيهِ يَوْمَيْنِ.

Yet, when He heard that Lazarus was sick, Jesus stayed where He was for two more days.

٧ 7 ثُمَّ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ لِتَلَامِيذِهِ: «لِنَذْهَبْ إِلَى ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ أَيْضًا».

After this, He said to the disciples, “Let’s go back to Judea.”

٨ 8 قَالَ لَهُ ٱلتَّلَامِيذُ: «يَا مُعَلِّمُ، ٱلْآنَ كَانَ ٱلْيَهُودُ يَطْلُبُونَ أَنْ يَرْجُمُوكَ، وَتَذْهَبُ أَيْضًا إِلَى هُنَاكَ».

The disciples said to Him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just recently trying to stone You! Are You really going back there?”

٩ 9 أَجَابَ يَسُوعُ: «أَلَيْسَتْ سَاعَاتُ ٱلنَّهَارِ ٱثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ؟ إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَمْشِي فِي ٱلنَّهَارِ لَا يَعْثُرُ لِأَنَّهُ يَنْظُرُ نُورَ هَذَا ٱلْعَالَمِ،

Jesus answered, “Aren’t there twelve hours of daylight? Anyone who walks by day doesn’t stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

١٠ 10 وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَمْشِي فِي ٱللَّيْلِ يَعْثُرُ، لِأَنَّ ٱلنُّورَ لَيْسَ فِيهِ».

But anyone who walks by night stumbles, because the light isn’t in him.”

١١ 11 قَالَ هَذَا، وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ لَهُمْ: «لِعَازَرُ حَبِيبُنَا قَدْ نَامَ. لَكِنِّي أَذْهَبُ لِأُوقِظَهُ».

After He had said this, He told them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there to wake him up.”

١٢ 12 فَقَالَ تَلَامِيذُهُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، إِنْ كَانَ قَدْ نَامَ فَهُوَ يُشْفَى».

The disciples therefore said to Him, “Lord, if he is sleeping, he will recover.”

١٣ 13 وَكَانَ يَسُوعُ يَقُولُ عَنْ مَوْتِهِ، وَهُمْ ظَنُّوا أَنَّهُ يَقُولُ عَنْ رُقَادِ ٱلنَّوْمِ.

Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that He was talking about literal sleep.

١٤ 14 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ حِينَئِذٍ عَلَانِيَةً: «لِعَازَرُ مَاتَ.

So Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead,

١٥ 15 وَأَنَا أَفْرَحُ لِأَجْلِكُمْ إِنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ هُنَاكَ، لِتُؤْمِنُوا. وَلَكِنْ لِنَذْهَبْ إِلَيْهِ!».

and I am glad for your sakes that I wasn’t there, so that you may believe — but let’s go to him.”

١٦ 16 فَقَالَ تُومَا ٱلَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ ٱلتَّوْأَمُ لِلتَّلَامِيذِ رُفَقَائِهِ: «لِنَذْهَبْ نَحْنُ أَيْضًا لِكَيْ نَمُوتَ مَعَهُ!».

Therefore Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, “Let’s go, too, that we may die with Him.”

١٧ 17 فَلَمَّا أَتَى يَسُوعُ وَجَدَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ صَارَ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةُ أَيَّامٍ فِي ٱلْقَبْرِ.

When Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb four days.

١٨ 18 وَكَانَتْ بَيْتُ عَنْيَا قَرِيبَةً مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ نَحْوَ خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ غَلْوَةً.

Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia away,

١٩ 19 وَكَانَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ ٱلْيَهُودِ قَدْ جَاءُوا إِلَى مَرْثَا وَمَرْيَمَ لِيُعَزُّوهُمَا عَنْ أَخِيهِمَا.

and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

٢٠ 20 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ مَرْثَا أَنَّ يَسُوعَ آتٍ لَاقَتْهُ، وَأَمَّا مَرْيَمُ فَٱسْتَمَرَّتْ جَالِسَةً فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ.

When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary stayed home.

٢١ 21 فَقَالَتْ مَرْثَا لِيَسُوعَ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، لَوْ كُنْتَ هَهُنَا لَمْ يَمُتْ أَخِي!

Then Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.

٢٢ 22 لَكِنِّي ٱلْآنَ أَيْضًا أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ كُلَّ مَا تَطْلُبُ مِنَ ٱللهِ يُعْطِيكَ ٱللهُ إِيَّاهُ».

Even now I know that God will give you whatever You ask of Him.”

٢٣ 23 قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوعُ: «سَيَقُومُ أَخُوكِ».

Jesus told her, “Your brother will rise again.”

٢٤ 24 قَالَتْ لَهُ مَرْثَا: «أَنَا أَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ سَيَقُومُ فِي ٱلْقِيَامَةِ، فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْأَخِيرِ».

Martha replied, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.”

٢٥ 25 قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوعُ: «أَنَا هُوَ ٱلْقِيَامَةُ وَٱلْحَيَاةُ. مَنْ آمَنَ بِي وَلَوْ مَاتَ فَسَيَحْيَا،

Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me will live even if they die,

٢٦ 26 وَكُلُّ مَنْ كَانَ حَيًّا وَآمَنَ بِي فَلَنْ يَمُوتَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. أَتُؤْمِنِينَ بِهَذَا؟». (aiōn g165)

and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?” (aiōn g165)

٢٧ 27 قَالَتْ لَهُ: «نَعَمْ يَا سَيِّدُ. أَنَا قَدْ آمَنْتُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ ٱبْنُ ٱللهِ، ٱلْآتِي إِلَى ٱلْعَالَمِ».

“Yes, Lord,” she answered, “I have believed that You are the Christ, God’s Son, who was to come into the world.”

٢٨ 28 وَلَمَّا قَالَتْ هَذَا مَضَتْ وَدَعَتْ مَرْيَمَ أُخْتَهَا سِرًّا، قَائِلَةً: «ٱلْمُعَلِّمُ قَدْ حَضَرَ، وَهُوَ يَدْعُوكِ».

When she had said this, she went back and called Mary, her sister, saying secretly, “The Teacher is here, and is asking for you.”

٢٩ 29 أَمَّا تِلْكَ فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ قَامَتْ سَرِيعًا وَجَاءَتْ إِلَيْهِ.

When she heard this, she arose quickly, and went to Him.

٣٠ 30 وَلَمْ يَكُنْ يَسُوعُ قَدْ جَاءَ إِلَى ٱلْقَرْيَةِ، بَلْ كَانَ فِي ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي لَاقَتْهُ فِيهِ مَرْثَا.

Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha met Him.

٣١ 31 ثُمَّ إِنَّ ٱلْيَهُودَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَعَهَا فِي ٱلْبَيْتِ يُعَزُّونَهَا، لَمَّا رَأَوْا مَرْيَمَ قَامَتْ عَاجِلًا وَخَرَجَتْ، تَبِعُوهَا قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّهَا تَذْهَبُ إِلَى ٱلْقَبْرِ لِتَبْكِيَ هُنَاكَ».

The Jews who were with her in the house, consoling her, saw Mary get up quickly and go out. They followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there.”

٣٢ 32 فَمَرْيَمُ لَمَّا أَتَتْ إِلَى حَيْثُ كَانَ يَسُوعُ وَرَأَتْهُ، خَرَّتْ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ قَائِلَةً لَهُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، لَوْ كُنْتَ هَهُنَا لَمْ يَمُتْ أَخِي!».

When Mary came to where Jesus was, she saw Him, and fell at His feet, saying to Him, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.”

٣٣ 33 فَلَمَّا رَآهَا يَسُوعُ تَبْكِي، وَٱلْيَهُودُ ٱلَّذِينَ جَاءُوا مَعَهَا يَبْكُونَ، ٱنْزَعَجَ بِٱلرُّوحِ وَٱضْطَرَبَ،

When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, He groaned in the spirit and was troubled.

٣٤ 34 وَقَالَ: «أَيْنَ وَضَعْتُمُوهُ؟». قَالُوا لَهُ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، تَعَالَ وَٱنْظُرْ».

He asked, “Where have you laid him?” They replied, “Lord, come and see.”

٣٥ 35 بَكَى يَسُوعُ.

Jesus wept.

٣٦ 36 فَقَالَ ٱلْيَهُودُ: «ٱنْظُرُوا كَيْفَ كَانَ يُحِبُّهُ!».

So the Jews were saying, “See how He loved him!”

٣٧ 37 وَقَالَ بَعْضٌ مِنْهُمْ: «أَلَمْ يَقْدِرْ هَذَا ٱلَّذِي فَتَحَ عَيْنَيِ ٱلْأَعْمَى أَنْ يَجْعَلَ هَذَا أَيْضًا لَا يَمُوتُ؟».

But some of them said, “Couldn’t this man, who opened the eyes of the blind man, have kept this man from dying?”

٣٨ 38 فَٱنْزَعَجَ يَسُوعُ أَيْضًا فِي نَفْسِهِ وَجَاءَ إِلَى ٱلْقَبْرِ، وَكَانَ مَغَارَةً وَقَدْ وُضِعَ عَلَيْهِ حَجَرٌ.

Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a boulder was placed against the entrance.

٣٩ 39 قَالَ يَسُوعُ: «ٱرْفَعُوا ٱلْحَجَرَ!». قَالَتْ لَهُ مَرْثَا، أُخْتُ ٱلْمَيْتِ: «يَا سَيِّدُ، قَدْ أَنْتَنَ لِأَنَّ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةَ أَيَّامٍ».

Jesus said, “Take away the boulder.” Martha, the dead man’s sister, said to Him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, because he has been dead four days.”

٤٠ 40 قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوعُ: «أَلَمْ أَقُلْ لَكِ: إِنْ آمَنْتِ تَرَيْنَ مَجْدَ ٱللهِ؟».

Jesus told her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you would believe you would see God’s glory?”

٤١ 41 فَرَفَعُوا ٱلْحَجَرَ حَيْثُ كَانَ ٱلْمَيْتُ مَوْضُوعًا، وَرَفَعَ يَسُوعُ عَيْنَيْهِ إِلَى فَوْقُ، وَقَالَ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلْآبُ، أَشْكُرُكَ لِأَنَّكَ سَمِعْتَ لِي،

Then they took the boulder away from the place where the dead man was lying. Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard me.

٤٢ 42 وَأَنَا عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ تَسْمَعُ لِي. وَلَكِنْ لِأَجْلِ هَذَا ٱلْجَمْعِ ٱلْوَاقِفِ قُلْتُ، لِيُؤْمِنُوا أَنَّكَ أَرْسَلْتَنِي».

I know that You always hear me, but because of the people who are standing here I said this, that they may believe that You sent me.”

٤٣ 43 وَلَمَّا قَالَ هَذَا صَرَخَ بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ: «لِعَازَرُ، هَلُمَّ خَارِجًا!».

Now when He had said these things, He called loudly, “Lazarus, come out!”

٤٤ 44 فَخَرَجَ ٱلْمَيْتُ وَيَدَاهُ وَرِجْلَاهُ مَرْبُوطَاتٌ بِأَقْمِطَةٍ، وَوَجْهُهُ مَلْفُوفٌ بِمِنْدِيلٍ. فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «حُلُّوهُ وَدَعُوهُ يَذْهَبْ».

He who had died came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus told them, “Unbind him, and let him go.”

٤٥ 45 فَكَثِيرُونَ مِنَ ٱلْيَهُودِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَاءُوا إِلَى مَرْيَمَ، وَنَظَرُوا مَا فَعَلَ يَسُوعُ، آمَنُوا بِهِ.

Then many of the Jews who had come to Mary, and had seen the things Jesus did, believed in Him.

٤٦ 46 وَأَمَّا قَوْمٌ مِنْهُمْ فَمَضَوْا إِلَى ٱلْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ وَقَالُوا لَهُمْ عَمَّا فَعَلَ يَسُوعُ.

But some of them went away to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus did.

٤٧ 47 فَجَمَعَ رُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱلْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ مَجْمَعًا وَقَالُوا: «مَاذَا نَصْنَعُ؟ فَإِنَّ هَذَا ٱلْإِنْسَانَ يَعْمَلُ آيَاتٍ كَثِيرَةً.

Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said, “What are we doing? For this Man performs many signs.

٤٨ 48 إِنْ تَرَكْنَاهُ هَكَذَا يُؤْمِنُ ٱلْجَمِيعُ بِهِ، فَيَأْتِي ٱلرُّومَانِيُّونَ وَيَأْخُذُونَ مَوْضِعَنَا وَأُمَّتَنَا».

If we let Him go on like this, everyone will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”

٤٩ 49 فَقَالَ لَهُمْ وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمْ، وَهُوَ قَيَافَا، كَانَ رَئِيسًا لِلْكَهَنَةِ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّنَةِ: «أَنْتُمْ لَسْتُمْ تَعْرِفُونَ شَيْئًا،

Then a certain one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, told them, “You don’t know anything,

٥٠ 50 وَلَا تُفَكِّرُونَ أَنَّهُ خَيْرٌ لَنَا أَنْ يَمُوتَ إِنْسَانٌ وَاحِدٌ عَنِ ٱلشَّعْبِ وَلَا تَهْلِكَ ٱلْأُمَّةُ كُلُّهَا!».

nor do you take into account that it’s better for you that one man should die for the people, than for the whole nation to perish.”

٥١ 51 وَلَمْ يَقُلْ هَذَا مِنْ نَفْسِهِ، بَلْ إِذْ كَانَ رَئِيسًا لِلْكَهَنَةِ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّنَةِ، تَنَبَّأَ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ مُزْمِعٌ أَنْ يَمُوتَ عَنِ ٱلْأُمَّةِ،

He didn’t say this on his own initiative; but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation,

٥٢ 52 وَلَيْسَ عَنِ ٱلْأُمَّةِ فَقَطْ، بَلْ لِيَجْمَعَ أَبْنَاءَ ٱللهِ ٱلْمُتَفَرِّقِينَ إِلَى وَاحِدٍ.

and not for the nation only, but that Jesus might also gather together into one God’s children who are scattered abroad.

٥٣ 53 فَمِنْ ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ تَشَاوَرُوا لِيَقْتُلُوهُ.

So from that day on, they planned together to kill Jesus.

٥٤ 54 فَلَمْ يَكُنْ يَسُوعُ أَيْضًا يَمْشِي بَيْنَ ٱلْيَهُودِ عَلَانِيَةً، بَلْ مَضَى مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى ٱلْكُورَةِ ٱلْقَرِيبَةِ مِنَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، إِلَى مَدِينَةٍ يُقَالُ لَهَا أَفْرَايِمُ، وَمَكَثَ هُنَاكَ مَعَ تَلَامِيذِهِ.

Therefore Jesus stopped walking publicly among the Jews, but went away from there to the region near the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there He stayed with the disciples.

٥٥ 55 وَكَانَ فِصْحُ ٱلْيَهُودِ قَرِيبًا. فَصَعِدَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ ٱلْكُوَرِ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ قَبْلَ ٱلْفِصْحِ لِيُطَهِّرُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ.

Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went from the country up to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.

٥٦ 56 فَكَانُوا يَطْلُبُونَ يَسُوعَ وَيَقُولُونَ فِيمَا بَيْنَهُمْ، وَهُمْ وَاقِفُونَ فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ: «مَاذَا تَظُنُّونَ؟ هَلْ هُوَ لَا يَأْتِي إِلَى ٱلْعِيدِ؟».

Then they were looking for Jesus, and spoke among themselves as they stood in the temple, “What do you think? Isn’t He coming to the feast at all?”

٥٧ 57 وَكَانَ أَيْضًا رُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱلْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ قَدْ أَصْدَرُوا أَمْرًا أَنَّهُ إِنْ عَرَفَ أَحَدٌ أَيْنَ هُوَ فَلْيَدُلَّ عَلَيْهِ، لِكَيْ يُمْسِكُوهُ.

Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that anyone who knew where Jesus was should report it, that they might arrest Him.

Jesus at the House of Martha and Mary
