John 11
1 And a certaine man was sicke, named Lazarus of Bethania, the towne of Marie, and her sister Martha.
Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister.
2 (And it was that Mary which anointed the Lord with oyntment, and wiped his feete with her heare, whose brother Lazarus was sicke.)
And Mary was she who anointed the Lord with perfume, and wiped his feet with her hair—whose brother Lazarus was sick.
3 Therefore his sisters sent vnto him, saying, Lord, beholde, he whome thou louest, is sicke.
The sisters, therefore, sent out unto him, saying—Lord, see! he whom thou tenderly lovest, is sick.
4 When Iesus heard it, he saide, This sickenes is not vnto death, but for the glorie of God, that the Sonne of God might be glorified thereby.
But Jesus hearing, said—This sickness, is not unto death, but for the glory of God, —that the Son of God may be glorified thereby.
5 Nowe Iesus loued Martha and her sister, and Lazarus.
Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
6 And after he had heard that he was sicke, yet abode hee two dayes still in the same place where he was.
When, therefore, he heard that he was sick, then, indeed, he abode in the place where he was, two days.
7 Then after that, said he to his disciples, Let vs goe into Iudea againe.
Then, after this, he saith unto the disciples—Let us be leading on into Judaea, again.
8 The disciples saide vnto him, Master, the Iewes lately sought to stone thee, and doest thou goe thither againe?
The disciples say unto him—Rabbi! just now, were the Jews seeking to stone thee—and, again, goest thou thither?
9 Iesus answered, Are there not twelue houres in the day? If a man walke in the day, hee stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
Jesus answered—Are there not, twelve hours, in the day? If one walk in the day, he doth no stumble, because, the light of this world, he seeth;
10 But if a man walke in the night, hee stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
But, if one walk in the night, he stumbleth, because, the light, is not in him.
11 These things spake he, and after, he said vnto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth: but I goe to wake him vp.
These things, he said, and, after this, he saith unto them—Lazarus, our dear friend, hath fallen asleep; but I am going, that I may awake him.
12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleepe, he shalbe safe.
The disciples, therefore, said unto him—Lord! if he have fallen asleep, he will recover.
13 Howbeit, Iesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of the naturall sleepe.
But Jesus had spoken concerning his death; whereas, they, supposed that, concerning the taking of rest in sleep, he had been speaking.
14 Then saide Iesus vnto them plainely, Lazarus is dead.
Jesus, therefore, then, said unto them, plainly, —Lazarus, died;
15 And I am glad for your sakes, that I was not there, that ye may beleeue: but let vs go vnto him.
and I rejoice, for your sake—that ye may believe, —that I was not there; but let us be going unto him.
16 Then saide Thomas (which is called Didymus) vnto his felow disciples, Let vs also goe, that we may die with him.
Thomas, therefore, the one called Didymus, said unto his fellow-disciples—Let, us also, be going, that we may die with him.
17 Then came Iesus, and found that he had lien in the graue foure dayes alreadie.
Jesus, therefore, coming, found that, four days already, had he been in the tomb.
18 (Nowe Bethania was neere vnto Hierusalem, about fifteene furlongs off.)
Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off;
19 And many of ye Iewes were come to Martha and Marie to comfort them for their brother.
and, many from among the Jews, had come unto Martha and Mary, that they might console them concerning their brother.
20 Then Martha, when shee heard that Iesus was comming, went to meete him: but Mary sate still in the house.
Martha, therefore, when she heard that Jesus was coming, went to meet him; but, Mary, in the house, remained sitting.
21 Then said Martha vnto Iesus, Lord, if thou hadst bene here, my brother had not bene dead.
Martha, therefore, said unto Jesus—Lord! if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died;
22 But now I know also, that whatsoeuer thou askest of God, God will giue it thee.
And, now, I know, that, whatsoever thou shalt ask of God, God, will give unto thee.
23 Iesus said vnto her, Thy brother shall rise againe.
Jesus saith unto her—Thy brother shall rise.
24 Martha said vnto him, I know that he shall rise againe in the resurrection at the last day.
Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise, in the resurrection, in the last day.
25 Iesus saide vnto her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that beleeueth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he liue.
Jesus said unto her—I, am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth on me, even though he die, shall live again!
And, no one who liveth again and believeth on me, shall in anywise die, unto times age-abiding. Believest thou this? (aiōn g165)
27 She said vnto him, Yea, Lord, I beleeue that thou art that Christ that Sonne of God, which should come into the world.
She saith unto him—Yea, Lord! I, have believed, that, thou, art the Christ, the Son of God, —He who, into the world, should come.
28 And when she had so saide, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.
And this saying, she went away, and called Mary her sister, secretly, saying—The teacher, is present, and calleth thee.
29 And when she heard it, shee arose quickly, and came vnto him.
And, she, when she heard, was roused up quickly, and was coming unto him.
30 For Iesus was not yet come into the towne, but was in the place where Martha met him.
Not yet, however, had Jesus come into the village, but was still in the place where, Martha, met him.
31 The Iewes then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they sawe Marie, that she rose vp hastily, and went out, folowed her, saying, She goeth vnto the graue, to weepe there.
The Jews, therefore, who were with her in the house and consoling her, seeing Mary, that quickly she arose and went out, followed her, supposing that she was withdrawing unto the tomb, that she might weep there.
32 Then when Mary was come where Iesus was, and sawe him, she fell downe at his feete, saying vnto him, Lord, if thou haddest bene here, my brother had not bene dead.
Mary, therefore, when she came where Jesus was, seeing him, fell at his feet, saying unto him—Lord! if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
33 When Iesus therefore saw her weepe, and the Iewes also weepe which came with her, hee groned in the spirit, and was troubled in himselfe,
Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, was indignant in the spirit, and troubled himself,
34 And saide, Where haue ye layde him? They said vnto him, Lord, come and see.
and said—Where have ye laid him? They say unto him—Lord! come and see.
35 And Iesus wept.
Jesus wept.
36 Then saide the Iewes, Beholde, how he loued him.
The Jews, therefore, were saying—See! how tenderly he loved him!
37 And some of them saide, Coulde not he, which opened the eyes of the blinde, haue made also, that this man should not haue died?
But, some from among them, said—Could not this man, who opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that, this one also, should not have died?
38 Iesus therefore againe groned in himselfe, and came to the graue. And it was a caue, and a stone was layde vpon it.
Jesus, therefore, again, being indignant within himself, cometh unto the tomb. Now it was a cave, and, a stone, was lying thereon.
39 Iesus saide, Take ye away the stone. Martha the sister of him that was dead, said vnto him, Lord, he stinketh alreadie: for he hath bene dead foure dayes.
Jesus, saith, Take ye away the stone! Martha, the sister of the deceased, saith unto him—Lord! by this time, he stinketh, for it is, four days.
40 Iesus saide vnto her, Saide I not vnto thee, that if thou diddest beleeue, thou shouldest see the glorie of God?
Jesus saith unto her—Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldst believe, thou shouldst see the glory of God?
41 Then they tooke away the stone from the place where the dead was layde. And Iesus lift vp his eyes, and saide, Father, I thanke thee, because thou hast heard me.
So they took away the stone. And, Jesus, lifted up his eyes on high, and said—Father! I thank thee, thou didst hear me:
42 I knowe that thou hearest me alwayes, but because of the people that stand by, I said it, that they may beleeue, that thou hast sent me.
I, indeed, knew that, always, unto me, thou dost hearken; but, for the sake of the multitude standing around, I spake, —that they might believe that, thou, didst send me forth.
43 As hee had spoken these things, hee cried with a loude voyce, Lazarus, come foorth.
And, these things, having said, with a loud voice, he cried out—Lazarus! Come forth!
44 Then he that was dead, came forth, bound hande and foote with bandes, and his face was bound with a napkin. Iesus said vnto them, Loose him, and let him goe.
He that was dead came forth, bound feet and hands with bandages, and, his face, with a napkin, was bound about. Jesus saith unto them—Loose him, and let him go.
45 Then many of the Iewes, which came to Mary, and had seene the thinges, which Iesus did, beleeued in him.
Many therefore from among the Jews, who had come unto Mary, and gazed on what he did, believed on him
46 But some of them went their way to the Pharises, and told them what things Iesus had done.
but, certain from among them, went away unto the Pharisees, and told them what Jesus had done.
47 Then gathered the hie Priests, and the Pharises a councill, and said, What shall we doe? For this man doeth many miracles.
The High-priests and Pharisees, therefore, brought together a high-council, and were saying—What are we to do, in that, this man, doeth, many signs?
48 If we let him thus alone, all men will beleeue in him, and the Romanes will come and take away both our place, and the nation.
If we let him alone thus, all, will believe on him, and the Romans will come, and take away, both our place and nation.
49 Then one of them named Caiaphas, which was the hie Priest that same yere, said vnto them, Ye perceiue nothing at all,
But, a certain one from among them, Caiaphas, being, High-priest, for that year, said unto them—Ye, know, nothing at all;
50 Nor yet doe you consider that it is expedient for vs, that one man die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.
nor do ye take into account, that it is profitable for you that, one man, should die for the people, and not, the whole nation, perish.
51 This spake hee not of himselfe: but being hie Priest that same yere, he prophecied that Iesus should die for that nation:
This, however, from himself, he spake not, but, being, High-priest, for that year, he prophesied, that Jesus was about to die for the nation;
52 And not for that nation onely, but that he shoulde gather together in one the children of God, which were scattered.
and, not for the nation only, but that, the scattered children of God also, he might gather together into one.
53 Then from that day foorth they consulted together, to put him to death.
From that day, therefore, they took counsel, that they might put him to death.
54 Iesus therefore walked no more openly among the Iewes, but went thence vnto a countrey neere to the wildernes, into a citie called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.
Jesus, therefore, no longer openly, was walking among the Jews, but departed thence, into the country near the desert, unto a city called, Ephraim; and, there, abode, with his disciples.
55 And the Iewes Passeouer was at hande, and many went out of the countrey vp to Hierusalem before the Passeouer, to purifie themselues.
Now the passover of the Jews was at hand, and many went up unto Jerusalem, out of the country, before the passover, that they might purify themselves.
56 Then sought they for Iesus, and spake among themselues, as they stoode in the Temple, What thinke ye, that he cometh not to the feast?
They were therefore seeking Jesus, and were saying one to another, in the temple, standing—How seemeth it unto you? that he will in nowise come unto the feast?
57 Now both the high Priestes and the Pharises had giuen a commandement, that if any man knew where he were, he should shew it, that they might take him.
Now the High-priests and the Pharisees had given commands, that, if anyone came to know where he was, he should inform [them], so that they might seize him.
