John 11
1 A man named Lazarus was sick. He lived in Bethany with his sisters Mary and Martha.
Lajaras ngeh ih mih wasiit angta ah sat eta. Heh Bithani ni tongte angta, Bithani ah Meeri nyia heh no Martha tongta samthung angta. (
2 Mary was the one who had anointed the Lord with perfume and wiped his feet with her hair. It was her brother Lazarus who was sick.
Teesu lah ni phontum ih lok ano heh khoroon ih hut haatte ah Meeri angta; eno khoisatte Lajaras ah heh no angta.)
3 So the sisters sent a message to Jesus: “Lord, your close friend is sick.”
Heh jongsah anyi ih Jisu suh maatbaat nyuuta: [Teesu an joonte abah sat ela.]
4 When Jesus heard the news he said, “The end result of this sickness will not be death. Through this God's glory will be revealed so that the Son of God may be glorified.”
Jisu ih erah chaat ano, liita, [Lajaras khoisat ah tek esuh bah tabaam angka; erabah Rangte rangka suh ba angla, eno Rangte Sah rangka lampo ah erah ang ah.]
5 Even though Jesus loved Martha, Mary, and Lazarus,
Martha nyi soonah nyia nengnyi no Lajaras ah Jisu moongnook angjom rumta.
6 and had heard that Lazarus was sick, he remained where he was for two more days.
Lajaras khoisat ah chaat abah uh, heh tongta hah adi saanyi boot daktong thiinta
7 Then he told the disciples, “Let's return to Judea.”
Eno Jisu ih heliphante loong asuh liita, [Judia nah ngaakwang ih.]
8 The disciples replied, “Rabbi, just a few days ago the Jews were trying to stone you. Do you really want to go back there now?”
[Nyootte, ] heliphante loong ih ngaakbaat rumta, [Erah hah adi Jehudi loong ih jong ih taatpat taho ah halowah tah angla; eno erah ni ngaakkaat chung hu oh?]
9 “Aren't there twelve hours in a day?” Jesus replied.
Jisu ih ngaakbaat rumta, [Rangwuusiit di asih koonta nyi tanih angka? Erah raang ih rangwu di khoomte ah tabanbotka, tiimnge liidi heh ih mongrep dowa weephaak ah tup eha.
10 “If you walk during the day you don't stumble because you can see where you're going by the light of this world. But if you walk during the night you stumble because you have no light.”
Enoothong, rangphe doh weephaak mudoh khoom abah banbot ih ah.]
11 After telling them this, he said, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I'm going to go there and wake him up!”
Jisu erah jeng ano jangbaatkaat rumta, [Seng joonte Lajaras bah mokjup ela, eno ngah kah angno saatsiit ih kah ang.]
12 The disciples said, “Lord, if he's sleeping then he'll get better.”
Heliphante loong ah ih ngaakli rumta, [Teesu, heh mokjup ela bah, ede ih ah.]
13 Jesus had been referring to the death of Lazarus, but the disciples thought he meant actual sleep.
Jisu ih Lajaras jup ela liita ah tek asuh liita, enoothong neng ih mokjup tiit baat ha ngeh ih mok samthun rumta.
14 So Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead.
Erah raangtaan ih Jisu ih saasa ih dokbaat rumta, Lajaras ah tek ela,
15 For your sake I'm glad I wasn't there, because now you will be able to trust in me. Let's go and see him.”
enoothong ngah mudi emah angla thoidi sen loong raang ih eroon elang, erah thoidoh ba sen ih kok hanpi an. Heh jiinnah wang ih.]
16 Thomas, the Twin, said to his fellow-disciples, “Let's go too so we can die with him.”
Thomas (khaangpeh ngeh ih men rumta) ih Jisu liphante wahoh loong asuh liita, [Nyootte damdoh seng loong ah wakwang ih, seng loong ah uh heh damdoh toom roongti wang ih!]
17 When he arrived, Jesus learned that Lazarus had been in the tomb for four days.
Jisu thokta adi, Lajaras ah sa baji ngani dook bengkaat arah japtup wangta.
18 Bethany was just two miles from Jerusalem,
Jerusalem ah phaloong jom nang ih haniik angta,
19 and many Jews had come to console Mary and Martha at the loss of their brother.
Martha nyia Meeri no tek kano Jehudi nok hah loong ah nengnyi huudiip ra rumtaha.
20 When Martha found out that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him, but Mary stayed at home.
Martha ih Jisu wang ah japchaat ano heh damdi chomui suh dokkhoom kata, enoothong Meeri ah nok ni tangtongta.
21 Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you'd been here, my brother wouldn't have died.
Martha ih Jisu suh liita, [Teesu, an aanah angtu bah, nga no ah tatek thengta!
22 But I'm certain that even now God will give you whatever you ask.”
Enoothong ngah ih jat ehang, an ih amadoh Rangte jiin nawa tiim suh uh erah kot eho.]
23 Jesus told her, “Your brother will rise again.”
Jisu ih baatta, [An no tek nawa we ngaaksaat ih ah.]
24 “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day,” Martha answered.
Martha we ngaakjengta, [Ngah ih jaat ehang[ saathoon doh [heh ngaaksaat ih ah.]
25 Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who trust in me will live, even though they die.
Jisu ih heh suh baatta, [Ngah tek nawa ngaaksaattte nyia roidong, o ih ngah hanpi halang, erah mih ah etek ih abah uh ething ang ah;
eno o ih ngah hanpi hangno thing tongla erah mabah uh tatiika. Arah tiit ah hanpi tam ih hu?] (aiōn g165)
27 “Yes, Lord,” she replied, “I believe you are the Messiah, the Son of God, the one expected to come to this world.”
[En Teesu!] Martha ih ngaakbaatta. [Ngah ih hanpi ehala, arah mongrep adi kaatte, Rangte Sah Kristo ah anju.]
28 When she had said this, she went and told her sister Mary in private, “The Teacher's here, and asking to see you.”
Maratha ih erah baat lih ni, heh nah Meeri jiinni hotsu ih ngaakwang ano poonwangta, [Nyootte ah bah ani,” eno heh ih [an jam halu.]
29 As soon as she heard, Mary quickly got up and went to see him.
Meeri ih erah chaat ano, Jisu taang ni chomui suh seek ih saatsoon kata.
30 Jesus hadn't arrived in the village yet. He was still at the place where Martha had met him.
(Jisu erah hadaang adi maangthok angta, maradi Maratha chomui kata erah di thoktong roh eta.)
31 The Jews who had been comforting Mary in the home saw how she'd got up quickly and left. So they followed her, thinking she was going to the tomb to weep there.
Meeri ah seek ih saatsoon kano, henok ni heh huudiipte khoontongta Jehudi loong ah ih mokthun rumta mangbeng ni hu kala ngeh ah, eno helilih ih phanjoh karumta.
32 When Mary arrived at the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, “Lord, if you'd been here, my brother wouldn't have died.”
Meeri ah Jisu reeni thok ano, heh laan japtup roh eta, eno heh lakuh ni chooktong kata. Meeri ih liita, [Teesu[ [an anah angtu bah nga no ah tatek thengta!]
33 When Jesus saw her crying, and the Jews who had come with her crying as well, he was very troubled and upset.
Jisu ih Meeri nyia heh damdi roongkaatte, miloong hu ah tup ano, heh rapne ih thungthita.
34 “Where have you laid him?” he asked. They replied, “Lord, come and see.”
Jisu ih cheng rumta, [Heh mani bengkaat tan?] Miloong ah ih baat rumta, [Teesu, Sok ra thaak ho.]
35 Then Jesus cried too.
Jisu ah ehu eta.
36 “See how much he loved him,” the Jews said.
Miloong ah ih li rumta, [Taat sok thaak an, heh ih tiimthan minchanha!]
37 But some of them said, “If he could open the eyes of a blind man, couldn't he have kept Lazarus from dying?”
Enoothong Neng dung dowa mararah ih liita, [Heh ih edook nep tanih kaasiitta, tatam angka? Lajaras ah tek nawa taba jentang ka?]
38 Very troubled, Jesus went to the tomb. It was a cave with a large stone placed at the entrance.
Jisu we thungthih ano mangbeng ko ih kata, mangbenglu ah jonglo ih kepta.
39 “Remove the stone,” Jesus told them. But Martha, the dead man's sister, said, “Lord, by now there will be a terrible smell, for he's been dead for four days.”
Jisu ih baat rumta, [Jong ah dokloong an!] Martha, etek eta jongsah rah ih liita, [Nam bah nam ebaat ah Teesu. Erah bengta dowa ih sa baji dook angla!]
40 “Didn't I tell you that if you trusted me you would see God's glory?” Jesus replied.
Eno Jisu ih Martha suh liita, [hanpi ih ubah Rangte chaan aphaan ah tup ih uh ngeh ih tanih baat taha?]
41 So they removed the stone. Jesus looked heavenwards, and said, “Father, thank you for listening to me.
Neng loong ah ih jong ah dokloong rumta. Jisu rangko ih toonsokwan ano jengta, [Ewah, nga rangsoom ah chaat raangtaan ih lakookmi li hala.
42 I know you always listen to me. I said this because of the crowd standing here so that they will believe that you sent me.”
Ngah ih jaat ehang an ih saarookwet ih boichaat halang, enoothong arah liihang abah, aradi lomkhoon hala miloong ah ih, an ih daapkaat tahang ngeh ih toom hanpi rumhang.]
43 After saying this, Jesus shouted, “Lazarus, come out!”
Erah jengta lih adi, Jisu ih erongwah ih riipoonta, [Lajaras, dokkhoom ho!]
44 The dead man came out, his hands and feet bound with strips of linen, and with a cloth around his face. “Unbind him and set him free,” Jesus told them.
Eno dokkhoom taha, helak helah mang loop nyuh ih dekchoi nyia hethe hekhoh nyuh ih dek arah, dokkhoom taha. Jisu ih baat rumta, [Nyuh ah jaahaat an,” eno [Toomwang ah.]
45 Consequently many of the Jews who had come to comfort Mary and who saw what Jesus did put their trust in him.
Meeri taang ni dongwangte mih hantek ih, Jisu tiimjih reeraangta ah tup rum ano heh ah hanpi ih rumta.
46 But others went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.
Enoothong mararah Pharisi loong jiinni ngaakwang rum ano Jisu reeraangta loong ah baatwan rumta.
47 Then the chief priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the ruling council. “What shall we do?” they asked. “This man is doing many miracles.
Erah thoidi Pharisi nok hah nyia romwah phokhoh loong ah Ngoong awang loong damdi chothum rum ano roongwaan rumta, [Seng ih tiimjih ih?] Mih paatjaajih reeraangla loong ah sok thaak an!
48 If we allow him to continue, everybody will believe in him, and then the Romans will destroy both the Temple and our status as a nation.”
Seng ih emah jaatjaat ih reeraang thuk ebah, warep ih hanpiite angrumla, eno Room nok hah ngoong awang loong ih li ih baat he, eno seng Rangteenook nyia seng deek sengkaan uh thet haat ete ang hali!]
49 “You don't understand anything!” said Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
Neng changdi wasiit, heh men ah Kaiphas angta, erah paang adi heh Romwah Phokhothoon angta, eno heh ih li rumta, [Sen mamah jen ngakthak lan!
50 “Can't you see that it's better for you that one man die for the people so that the whole nation won't be destroyed?”
Sen ih tatam samthun kan deek akaan pan ih matnang ih noksong raangtaan ih wasiit rooptiila ah ese ang ah ngeh ah!]
51 He didn't say this on his own behalf, but as chief priest that year he was prophesying that Jesus would die for the nation.
Kaiphas ah hethung nawa ih tajengta, erah paang adi Romwah Phokhothoon ang kano, Jehudi noksong raang ih Jisu roopti ah ngeh ih chiilam laalam ni banjat eta,
52 And this was not just for the Jewish nation, but for all the scattered children of God so that they might be gathered together and be made into one.
eno neng loong raangtaan luulu tah angka, Rangte suh asah mathan phaang jaangta erah loong ah phunsiit saksiit ih khoonsiit suh nep angta.
53 From that time on they plotted how they might kill Jesus.
Erah sa dowa ih Jehudi ngoong awang loong ah ih Jisu tek haat suh chung rumta.
54 So Jesus did not travel openly among the Jews but went to a town called Ephraim in the region near the desert and stayed there with his disciples.
Erah thoidi Judia ni Jisu wuusa ni tanaan tupkhoomta, eno erah hah dowa doksoon ano, phisaang hah re dowa Ephraim samnuh ni heliphante loong damdi tong kata.
55 It was nearly time for the Jewish Passover, and many people went from the countryside to Jerusalem to purify themselves for the Passover.
Khopi Kuwaang lang nanah ang kano, miloong ah neng hah nawa Jerusalem ni Kuwaang maangdi khojoop karumta.
56 People were looking for Jesus and talking about him as they stood in the Temple. “What do you think?” they asked each other. “Isn't he coming to the festival?”
Neng ih Jisu jamsok rumta, eno neng loong ah Rangteenook ni thutthe rum adi, neng neng chengmui rumta, [Sen ih tiimjih thun han?] Jisu ah kuwaang adoh tajaatjaat tam wangra?]
57 The chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that anyone who knew where Jesus was should report it so they could arrest him.
Romwah phokhoh nyia Pharisi loong ih baat rumta, o ih Jisu japtup ah, heh ih chobaat etheng, neng ih jootkhak esuh ah.
