< John 11 >

1 And there was a certain one ailing, Lazarus, from Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister—
ⲁ̅ⲛⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁ ⲇⲉ ϣⲱⲛⲉ ϫⲉ ⲗⲁⲍⲁⲣⲟⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲃⲏⲑⲁⲛⲓⲁ ⲡϯⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲑⲁ ⲧⲉⲥⲥⲱⲛⲉ.
2 and it was Mary who anointed the LORD with ointment, and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ailing—
ⲃ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲧⲉⲛⲧⲁⲥⲧⲉϩⲥ̅ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲥⲟϭⲛ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲥϥⲉⲧⲛⲉϥⲟⲩⲉⲣⲏⲧⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲥϥⲱ ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲉⲣⲉⲡⲉⲥⲥⲟⲛ ⲗⲁⲍⲁⲣⲟⲥ ϣⲱⲛⲉ.
3 therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, “Lord, behold, he whom You cherish is ailing”;
ⲅ̅ⲁⲩϫⲟⲟⲩ ϭⲉ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲉϥⲥⲱⲛⲉ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲉⲓⲥϩⲏⲏⲧⲉ ϥϣⲱⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲉⲧⲕ̅ⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ.
4 and Jesus having heard, said, “This ailment is not to death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”
ⲇ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲓ̈ϣⲱⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲡⲙⲟⲩ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲉ ϫⲓⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ.
5 And Jesus was loving Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus,
ⲉ̅ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲑⲁ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲧⲉⲥⲥⲱⲛⲉ ⲛⲙⲗⲁⲍⲁⲣⲟⲥ.
6 when, therefore, He heard that he is ailing, then indeed He remained in the place in which He was two days,
ⲋ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ϭⲉ ϫⲉ ϥϣⲱⲛⲉ. ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲁϥϭⲱ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲥⲛⲁⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲛⲉϥⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅.
7 then after this, He says to the disciples, “We may go to Judea again”;
ⲍ̅ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲛ ⲟⲛ ⲉϯⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓⲁ.
8 the disciples say to Him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just seeking to stone You, and again You go there?”
ⲏ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ. ϫⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲃⲃⲉⲓ. ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁϩⲓⲱⲛⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲕ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲛ ⲕⲛⲁⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲙⲁⲩ.
9 Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone may walk in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world;
ⲑ̅ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲙⲏ ⲙⲛ̅ⲙⲛⲧⲥ̅ⲛⲟⲟⲩⲥ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ. ⲉⲣϣⲁⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲉϥϫⲓϫⲣⲟⲡ ϫⲉ ϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ.
10 and if anyone may walk in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”
ⲓ̅ⲉⲣϣⲁⲟⲩⲁ ⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩϣⲏ. ϣⲁϥϫⲓϫⲣⲟⲡ ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲟⲓ̈ⲛ ϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲁⲛ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅.
11 He said these things, and after this He says to them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I go on that I may awake him”;
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲁϥϫⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲗⲁⲍⲁⲣⲟⲥ ⲡⲉⲛϣⲃⲏⲣ ⲁϥⲛ̅ⲕⲟⲧⲕ̅. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϯⲛⲁⲃⲱⲕ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲉ͡ⲓⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲟⲥϥ̅.
12 therefore His disciples said, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will be saved”;
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ ϭⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲉϣϫⲉⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥⲛ̅ⲕⲟⲧⲕ̅. ϥⲛⲁⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ.
13 but Jesus had spoken about his death, but they thought that He speaks about the repose of sleep.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲉϥⲙⲟⲩ. ⲛⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲙⲉⲩⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉϥϫⲉⲡⲉⲛⲕⲟⲧⲕ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲱⲃϣ.
14 Then, therefore, Jesus said to them freely, “Lazarus has died;
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ϭⲉ ⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲁⲣⲣⲏⲥⲓⲁ. ϫⲉ ⲗⲁⲍⲁⲣⲟⲥ ⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ
15 and I rejoice, for your sake (that you may believe), that I was not there; but we may go to him”;
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ϯⲣⲁϣⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲓ̈ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲛ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ.
16 therefore Thomas, who is called Didymus, said to the fellow-disciples, “We may go—we also, that we may die with Him,”
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲑⲱⲙⲁⲥ ⲡⲉϣⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲇⲓⲇⲩⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥϣⲃⲣ̅ⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲛ ϩⲱⲱⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲛⲉⲙⲟⲩ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ
17 Jesus, therefore, having come, found him having already been four days in the tomb.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲉ͡ⲓ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁϥϩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲡⲉϥϥⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲉϥϩⲙ̅ⲡⲧⲁⲫⲟⲥ.
18 And Bethany was near to Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia off,
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲃⲏⲑⲁⲛⲓⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲥϩⲏⲛ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲑⲓⲉⲣⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲏⲙ ⲛ̅ⲁⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲏ ⲛ̅ⲥⲧⲁⲇⲓⲟⲛ.
19 and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, that they might comfort them concerning their brother;
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲛⲉⲁⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲡⲉ ϣⲁⲙⲁⲣⲑⲁ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ϫⲉ ⲉⲩⲉⲥⲗ̅ⲥⲱⲗⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲉⲩⲥⲟⲛ.
20 Martha, therefore, when she heard that Jesus comes, met Him, and Mary kept sitting in the house.
ⲕ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲑⲁ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲥⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ϫⲉ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲏⲩ. ⲁⲥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲏⲧϥ̅. ⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲏⲉ͡ⲓ.
21 Martha, therefore, said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother had not died;
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲙⲁⲣⲑⲁ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅. ϫⲉ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ. ⲉⲛⲉⲕⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲙⲁ. ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲡⲁⲥⲟⲛ ⲛⲁⲙⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ.
22 but even now, I have known that whatever You may ask of God, God will give to You”;

23 Jesus says to her, “Your brother will rise again.”
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲡⲟⲩⲥⲟⲛ ⲛⲁⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛϥ̅.
24 Martha says to Him, “I have known that he will rise again in the resurrection in the last day”;
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲙⲁⲣⲑⲁ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ϯⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ϥⲛⲁⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ϩⲙ̅ⲡϩⲁⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ.
25 Jesus said to her, “I AM the resurrection, and the life; he who is believing in Me, even if he may die, will live;
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥⲧⲁⲥⲓⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲱⲛϩ. ⲡⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲉ͡ⲓ. ⲕⲁⲛ ⲉϥϣⲁⲛⲙⲟⲩ ϥⲛⲁⲱⲛϩ.
26 and everyone who is living and believing in Me will not die—throughout the age; (aiōn g165)

27 do you believe this?” She says to Him, “Yes, Lord, I have believed that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming into the world.”
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁⲥ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲥⲉ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ. ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϯⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ.
28 And having said these things, she went away, and called Mary her sister privately, saying, “The Teacher is present, and calls you”;
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲥϫⲉⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲥⲃⲱⲕ ⲁⲥⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲧⲉⲥⲥⲱⲛⲉ ⲉⲥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲥ ⲛ̅ϫⲓⲟⲩⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁⲡⲥⲁϩ ⲉ͡ⲓ ⲁⲩⲱ ϥⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲟ.
29 she, when she heard, rises up quickly, and comes to Him;
ⲕ̅ⲑ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲥⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅. ⲁⲥⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛⲥ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϭⲉⲡⲏ ⲁⲥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϣⲁⲣⲟϥ.
30 and Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha met Him;
ⲗ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲧϥ̅ⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡϯⲙⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲧⲓ ⲛⲉϥϩⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲙⲁⲣⲑⲁ ⲧⲱⲙⲛ̅ⲧ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅.
31 the Jews, therefore, who were with her in the house, and were comforting her, having seen Mary that she rose up quickly and went forth, followed her, saying, “She goes away to the tomb, that she may weep there.”
ⲗ̅ⲁ̅ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ϭⲉ ⲉⲧϩⲙ̅ⲡⲏⲓ̈ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲧⲥⲟⲗⲥⲗ̅ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ϫⲉ ⲁⲥⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛⲥ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϭⲉⲡⲏ ⲁⲥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ⲁⲩⲟⲩⲁϩⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲥ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲉⲥⲛⲁⲃⲱⲕʾ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲡⲧⲁⲫⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲥⲉⲣⲓⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ.
32 Mary, therefore, when she came where Jesus was, having seen Him, fell at His feet, saying to Him, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother had not died”;
ⲗ̅ⲃ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲛⲉⲣⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅. ⲁⲥⲛⲟϫⲥ̅ ϩⲁⲛⲉϥⲟⲩⲉⲣⲏⲧⲉ ⲉⲥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ. ϫⲉ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ. ⲉⲛⲉⲕⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲉ͡ⲓⲙⲁ. ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲡⲁⲥⲟⲛ ⲛⲁⲙⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ.
33 Jesus, therefore, when He saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, groaned in the spirit, and troubled Himself, and He said,
ⲗ̅ⲅ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϭⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲉⲥⲣⲓⲙⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲥ ⲉⲩⲣⲓⲙⲉ. ⲁϥϣⲧⲟⲣⲧⲣ̅ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡⲛ̅ⲁ ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧ
34 “Where have you laid him?” They say to Him, “Lord, come and see”;

35 Jesus wept.
ⲗ̅ⲉ̅ⲁϥⲣⲓⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅.
36 The Jews, therefore, said, “Behold, how He was cherishing him!”
ⲗ̅ⲋ̅ⲛⲉⲩϫⲱ ϭⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲑⲉ ⲉⲧϥ̅ⲙⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ.
37 And certain of them said, “Was not this One, who opened the eyes of the blind man, also able to cause that this one might not have died?”
ⲗ̅ⲍ̅ϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲡⲉϫⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⲛ̅ⲃ̅ⲃⲁⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲃⲗ̅ⲗⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉ ⲛⲉⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲟⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲧⲣⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲙⲟⲩ.
38 Jesus, therefore, again groaning in Himself, comes to the tomb, and it was a cave, and a stone was lying on it,
ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϭⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲉϥⲟⲟⲧ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧϥ̅ ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲡⲧⲁⲫⲟⲥ. ⲛⲉⲟⲩⲥⲡⲏⲗⲁⲓⲟⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩⲱⲛⲉ ϩⲓⲣⲱϥ.
39 Jesus says, “Take away the stone”; the sister of him who has died—Martha—says to Him, “Lord, he already stinks, for he is four days dead”;
ⲗ̅ⲑ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ϥⲓⲡⲱⲛⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ. ⲡⲉϫⲉⲙⲁⲣⲑⲁ ⲛⲁϥ ⲧⲥⲱⲛⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲏⲇⲏ ⲁϥⲣ̅ⲥⲧⲟⲓ̈ ⲡⲉϥϥⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ.
40 Jesus says to her, “Did I not say to you that if you may believe, you will see the glory of God?”
ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲛⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲁⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡⲉⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
41 Therefore they took away the stone where the dead was laid, and Jesus lifted His eyes upwards, and said, “Father, I thank You that You heard Me;
ⲙ̅ⲁ̅ⲁⲩϥⲓⲡⲱⲛⲉ ϭⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ. ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϥⲓⲛⲉϥⲃⲁⲗ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲡⲉ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ⲱⲧ ϯϣⲡ̅ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧⲕ̅ ϫⲉ ⲁⲕⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲣⲟⲉ͡ⲓ.
42 and I knew that You always hear Me, but because of the multitude that is standing by, I said [it], that they may believe that You sent Me.”

43 And saying these things, He cried out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!”
ⲙ̅ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϫⲉⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲁϥⲁϣⲕⲁⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲛ̅ⲥⲙⲏ ϫⲉ ⲗⲁⲍⲁⲣⲉ ⲁⲙⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
44 And he who died came forth, feet and hands being bound with grave-clothes, and his face was bound around with a napkin; Jesus says to them, “Loose him, and permit to go.”
ⲙ̅ⲇ̅ⲁϥⲉ͡ⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⲉϥⲙⲏⲣ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϥⲟⲩⲉⲣⲏⲧⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲛⲉϥϭⲓϫ ϩⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲉⲣⲉⲁ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲉϥϩⲟ ⲙⲏⲣ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲩⲇⲁⲣⲓⲟⲛ. ⲡⲉϫⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ⲃⲟⲗϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲕⲁⲁϥ ⲛϥ̅ⲃⲱⲕ.
45 Many, therefore, of the Jews who came to Mary, and beheld what Jesus did, believed in Him;
ⲙ̅ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲉ͡ⲓ ϣⲁⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲁⲁϥ. ⲁⲩⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
46 but certain of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them what Jesus did;
ⲙ̅ⲋ̅ϩⲟⲓ̈ⲛⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲃⲱⲕ ϣⲁⲛⲉⲫⲁⲣⲓⲥⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲁⲁⲩ.
47 the chief priests, therefore, and the Pharisees, gathered together [the] Sanhedrin and said, “What may we do? Because this Man does many signs?

48 If we may leave Him alone thus, all will believe in Him; and the Romans will come, and will take away both our place and nation.”

49 And a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being chief priest of that year, said to them, “You have not known anything,
ⲙ̅ⲑ̅ⲟⲩⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲕⲁⲓⲫⲁⲥ ⲉⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲙⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ.
50 nor reason that it is good for us that one man may die for the people, and not the whole nation perish.”
ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲗⲟⲅⲓⲍⲉ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲥⲣ̅ⲛⲟϥⲣⲉ ⲛⲁⲛ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲡⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲡϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣϥ̅ ϩⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
51 And he did not say this of himself, but being chief priest of that year, he prophesied that Jesus was about to die for the nation,
ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥϫⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲛ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩⲁⲁϥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲉⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲙⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲁϥⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲣⲉⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲁⲡϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ
52 and not for the nation only, but that also the children of God, who have been scattered abroad, He may gather together into one.

53 From that day, therefore, they took counsel together that they may kill Him;

54 Jesus, therefore, was no longer freely walking among the Jews, but went away from there into the region near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there He tarried with His disciples.
