John 11
1 At this time a man named Lazarus was sick. He lived in Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
Bethany ah a teang Lazarus a kici khat sia a cina hi, tua Bethany sia Mary le a suapui nu Martha te i khuapi a hihi.
2 (Mary, whose brother Lazarus was sick, was to anoint the Lord with perfume and wipe His feet with her hair.)
Hi Mary sia Topa sathau namtui buak in, taciang a sam taw a peang a nawlsak nu hi a, a suapuipa Lazarus sia a cina hi.
3 So the sisters sent word to Jesus, “Lord, the one You love is sick.”
Tua ahikom a suapui nu in ngual paisak a, Topa, en in, na it bel pa a cina hi, ci hi.
4 When Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”
Tua thu Jesus in a zakciang in, Hi natna sia thi natu natna hi ngawl hi, ahihang Pathian minthanna tu hi a, tua tungtawn in Pathian Tapa in minthanna nga tu hi, ci hi.
5 Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
Jesus in Martha, a suapui nu le Lazarus te it hi.
6 So on hearing that Lazarus was sick, He stayed where He was for two days,
Lazarus a cina, ci thu za hi kale, a omna ah ni ni sung taam lai hi.
7 and then He said to the disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.”
Tua zawkciang a nungzui te kung ah, Judah ngam sung ah paikik tawng, ci hi.
8 “Rabbi,” they replied, “the Jews just tried to stone You, and You are going back there?”
A nungzui te in, Syapa awng, Judah mite in tu nung hiat ma in, suangtum taw den tu in hong zong uh a; tua mun ah paikik tu ni ziam? ci uh hi.
9 Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? If anyone walks in the daytime, he will not stumble, because he sees by the light of this world.
Jesus in, Nikhat sung ah nai sawm le nai ni om hi ngawl ziam? Khatpo sia sun hun in a vakle lutu ngawl hi, banghangziam cile ama in hi leitung khuavak mu hi.
10 But if anyone walks at night, he will stumble, because he has no light.”
Ahihang khatpo in zan in a vak le, lutu tu hi, banghangziam cile ama sung ah khuavak om ngawl hi, ci in zo hi.
11 After He had said this, He told them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there to wake him up.”
Hi thu te a son zawkciang in, Jesus in amate tung ah, I lawmpa Lazarus mu hi; ahihang keima ka pai tu a, a mut na pan in ka phong tu hi, ci hi.
12 His disciples replied, “Lord, if he is sleeping, he will get better.”
A nungzui te in, Topa awng, mu a hile, dam tu hi, ci uh hi.
13 They thought that Jesus was talking about actual sleep, but He was speaking about the death of Lazarus.
Ahihang Jesus in a thi na thu a son a hihi: hi kamale amate in tawlnga in mu hi ci bang in ngasun uh hi.
14 So Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead,
Tua zawkciang in Jesus in amate tung ah son thiang a, Lazarus thi hi.
15 and for your sake I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.”
Taciang, na up thei natu uh in tua mun ah ka om ngawl sia note atu in ka angtang hi; hi kale a kung ah pai tek tawng, ci hi.
16 Then Thomas called Didymus said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, so that we may die with Him.”
Tua zawkciang in, Didymus a kici Thomas in, a nungzui pui te kung ah, Ama taw thi khawm tu in eite zong pai tek tawng, ci hi.
17 When Jesus arrived, He found that Lazarus had already spent four days in the tomb.
Jesus a thet ciang in, Lazarus sia than ah a phum zawk ni li hi zo ci he hi.
18 Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, a little less than two miles away,
Bethany sia Jerusalem nai na ah om a, tai ni dektak pha hi:
19 and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them in the loss of their brother.
Martha le Mary te sia a suapuipa taw kisai, amate a heneam tu in Judah mi tampi te hongpai uh hi.
20 So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet Him; but Mary stayed at home.
Tua zawkciang in, Martha in Jesus hongpai hi, ci a zak po ciang, pai in muak hi: ahihang Mary sia innsung ah to nginge hi.
21 Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.
Martha in Jesus kung ah, Topa awng, himun ah om hile te, ka suapui pa thi ngawl tu hi.
22 But even now I know that God will give You whatever You ask of Him.”
Ahihang, tu zong in Pathian tung ah na nget theampo Pathian in hong pia tu hi, ci ka he hi, ci hi.
23 “Your brother will rise again,” Jesus told her.
Jesus in Martha kung ah, Na suapuipa thokik tu hi, ci hi.
24 Martha replied, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
Martha in Jesus kung ah, thawkikna ni tawpkhak ni ciang in thokik tu hi, ci ka he hi, ci hi.
25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me will live, even though he dies.
Jesus in ama kung ah, Keima in thawkikna le nuntakna ka hihi: keima hong um peuma, a thi zong in nungta tu hi:
Taciang in a kuamapo nungta a, keima hong um peuma sia bangmahun in thi nawn ngawl tu uh hi. Hi thu na um ziam? ci hi. (aiōn g165)
27 “Yes, Lord,” she answered, “I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.”
Martha in, Hi hi, Topa awng: nangma in leitung ah hongpai tu Pathian Tapa, Christ na hihi, ci ka um hi, ci hi.
28 After Martha had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside to tell her, “The Teacher is here and is asking for you.”
Martha sia tateng a pau zawkciang pai hi, taciang a nau Mary samku a, Syapa hongpai hi, taciang nangma hong sam hi, ci hi.
29 And when Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to Him.
Tua thu Mary in a zak pociang manlangtak in ding a, Jesus kung ah pai hi.
30 Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met Him.
Tu in Jesus sia khuapi sung ah tum ngawllai a, Martha i a mu na mun ah omlai hi.
31 When the Jews who were in the house consoling Mary saw how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there.
Mary inn ah a om Judah mite le ama a heneam te in, Mary manlangtak in ding a, a pusua a mu uh ciang, zui kheukho uh a, than ah a kap tu in pai hi, ci uh hi.
32 When Mary came to Jesus and saw Him, she fell at His feet and said, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.”
Jesus kung ah Mary a thet ciang in, Jesus mu a, a peang ah bok in, Topa awng, nangma himun ah om le te, ka suapuipa thi ngawl tu hi, ci hi.
33 When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come with her also weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.
Tua ahikom Jesus in Mary kakap in le, ama taw hongpai Judah mite zong a kakap a mu ciang in, a thaa in thuak hak sa in, tau a,
34 “Where have you put him?” He asked. “Come and see, Lord,” they answered.
Koisung ah phum nu ziam? ci hi. Amate in, Topa awng, hongpai tan a, en in, ci uh hi.
35 Jesus wept.
Jesus kap hi.
36 Then the Jews said, “See how He loved him!”
Tua zawkciang in Judah mite in, en vun, Lazarus bangza in it ziam! ci uh hi.
37 But some of them asked, “Could not this man who opened the eyes of the blind also have kept Lazarus from dying?”
Taciang pawlkhat te in, mittaw te khua a musak hisia pa in, Lazarus thi ngawl tu in vawt thei ngawl a hi tam? ci uh hi.
38 Jesus, once again deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance.
Tua ahikom Jesus a thinsung pan tau kawm in than ah pai hi. Hi than sia suanghawng hi a, a tung ah suangtum khat taw huk hi.
39 “Take away the stone,” Jesus said. “Lord, by now he stinks,” said Martha, the sister of the dead man. “It has already been four days.”
Jesus in, A suangtum khin vun, ci hi. Mithi pa suapui nu Martha in, Topa awng, tu in ui zo tu hi: banghangziam cile a thi zawk ni li hi zo hi, ci hi.
40 Jesus replied, “Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?”
Jesus in ama tung ah, Na umle, Pathian vangletna na mu tu hi, hong ci zo hi ngawl khi ziam? ci hi.
41 So they took away the stone. Then Jesus lifted His eyes upward and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.
Tua zawkciang in amate in suangtum sia mithi ki sial na pan in khin uh hi. Taciang Jesus in a tungsang ento a, Pa awng, nangma in hong za zo na hikom in lungdam kong ko hi.
42 I knew that You always hear Me, but I say this for the benefit of the people standing here, so they may believe that You sent Me.”
Taciang a tawntung in nong za hi, ci ka he hi: ahihang ka kiim ah a ding mihing te in, nangma in keima nong sawl hi, ci a up thei natu uh in kong ci a hihi, ci hi.
43 After Jesus had said this, He called out in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”
Tabang in a ci zawkciang, Jesus sia aw ngingtak taw, Lazarus, pusuak tan, ci hi.
44 The man who had been dead came out with his hands and feet bound in strips of linen, and his face wrapped in a cloth. “Unwrap him and let him go,” Jesus told them.
Taciang Lazarus hong pusuak a, a khut le a peang te sia mithi tunna puan taw ki tuam hi: taciang a mai zong dial no taw kituam hi. Jesus in amate tung ah, Sut vun a, paisak vun, ci hi.
45 Therefore many of the Jews who had come to Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, believed in Him.
Tua zawkciang in Mary kung ah hongpai Judah mi tampi te in, Jesus i vawt te a mu uh ciang in, Ama um uh hi.
46 But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.
Ahihang pawlkhat sia Pharisee te kung ah pai uh a, Jesus i sep teng son uh hi.
47 Then the chief priests and Pharisees convened the Sanhedrin and said, “What are we to do? This man is performing many signs.
Tua zawkciang in thiampi lian te le Pharisee te sia thu kikum tu in ki kaikhawm uh a, bangba hi tu hi ziam? banghangziam cile hisia pa in nalamdang tampi vawt hi.
48 If we let Him go on like this, everyone will believe in Him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”
Hibang in i en thong a hile, mi theampo in Ama um tu uh a: Rome mite in i mun le i ngam teng hong sut siat tu hi, ci uh hi.
49 But one of them, named Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all!
Taciang amate sung pan khat, Caiaphas a kici pa, ama sia tua kum ciang in thiampi sang hi a, note bangma he ngawl nu hi,
50 You do not realize that it is better for you that one man die for the people than that the whole nation perish.”
Minam bup i lalcip ngawl natu in, mi khat mipi atu in thi le, eite atu in phazaw tu hi, ci zong ngaisun ngawl nu hi, ci hi.
51 Caiaphas did not say this on his own. Instead, as high priest that year, he was prophesying that Jesus would die for the nation,
Taciang hi thu sia ama thu in a pau hi ngawl hi: ahihang tua kum atu in thiampi sang ahikom in, Jesus sia tua minam atu in a thi natu mailamthu sonkhol a hihi:
52 and not only for the nation, but also for the scattered children of God, to gather them together into one.
Taciang hi minam atu bek hi ngawl in, ngam theampo ah a ki thethang Pathian tate a ki kaikhop natu thu zong a son a hihi.
53 So from that day on they plotted to kill Him.
Tua ni pan kipan in Ama bangbang in thatlum thei tu ci ngaisun uh hi.
54 As a result, Jesus no longer went about publicly among the Jews, but He withdrew to a town called Ephraim in an area near the wilderness. And He stayed there with the disciples.
Tua ahikom Jesus sia Judah mite sung ah a kilang in vak nawn ngawl a; senneal ngam nai khuano sang, Ephraim a kici khua sang ah a nungzui te taw om uh hi.
55 Now the Jewish Passover was near, and many people went up from the country to Jerusalem to purify themselves before the Passover.
Judah mite paisanpoai hong nai zo hi: taciang mi tampi te khuano sang pan in Jerusalem ah paisanpoai ma, amate le amate ki thiansua tu in pai tek uh hi.
56 They kept looking for Jesus and asking one another as they stood in the temple courts, “What do you think? Will He come to the feast at all?”
Tua zawkciang in amate in Jesus zong uh a, biakinn sung ah a dinkawm in kikum uh a, Jesus sia poai ah hongpai ngawl tu hi, bang na ngaisun uh ziam? ci uh hi.
57 But the chief priests and Pharisees had given orders that anyone who knew where He was must report it, so that they could arrest Him.
Tu in, mihing khatpo in Jesus sia koisung a om ziam, ci a he le a omna mun lak tu a, man tu in thiampi lian te le Pharisee te in thupia uh hi.
