Yochanan 11
1 Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Miriam and her sister, Martha.
Now a certain [man] was sick, [named] Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
2 It was that Miriam who had anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother, Lazarus, was sick.
(It was [that] Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)
3 The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, "Lord, look, the one you love is sick."
Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.
4 But when Yeshua heard it, he said, "This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that God's Son may be glorified by it."
When Jesus heard [that], he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.
5 Now Yeshua loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
6 When therefore he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days in the place where he was.
When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.
7 Then after this he said to the talmidim, "Let us go into Judea again."
Then after that saith he to [his] disciples, Let us go into Judæa again.
8 The talmidim told him, "Rabbi, the Jewish leaders were just trying to stone you, and are you going there again?"
[His] disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?
9 Yeshua answered, "Are there not twelve hours of daylight? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
10 But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him."
But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
11 He said these things, and after that, he said to them, "Our friend, Lazarus, has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep."
These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.
12 Then the talmidim said to him, "Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover."
Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.
13 Now Yeshua had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep.
Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
14 So Yeshua said to them plainly then, "Lazarus is dead.
Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
15 I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless, let us go to him."
And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.
16 Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow talmidim, "Let us go also, that we may die with him."
Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.
17 So when Yeshua came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already.
Then when Jesus came, he found that he had [lain] in the grave four days already.
18 Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles away.
Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:
19 Many of the Jewish people had come to Martha and Miriam, to console them concerning their brother.
And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.
20 Then when Martha heard that Yeshua was coming, she went and met him, but Miriam stayed in the house.
Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat [still] in the house.
21 Therefore Martha said to Yeshua, "Lord, if you would have been here, my brother would not have died.
Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
22 Even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you."
But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give [it] thee.
23 Yeshua said to her, "Your brother will rise again."
Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.
24 Martha said to him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."
Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.
25 Yeshua said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.
Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? (aiōn g165)
27 She said to him, "Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, he who comes into the world."
She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.
28 And when she had said this, she went away, and called Miriam, her sister, secretly, saying, "The Teacher is here, and is calling you."
And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.
29 When she heard this, she arose quickly, and went to him.
As soon as she heard [that], she arose quickly, and came unto him.
30 Now Yeshua had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha met him.
Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.
31 Then the Judeans who were with her in the house, and were consoling her, when they saw Miriam, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there.
The Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.
32 Therefore when Miriam came to where Yeshua was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, "Lord, if you would have been here, my brother would not have died."
Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
33 When Yeshua therefore saw her weeping, and the Judeans weeping who came with her, he was deeply moved in spirit and was troubled,
When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,
34 and said, "Where have you put him?" They told him, "Lord, come and see."
And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.
35 Yeshua wept.
Jesus wept.
36 The Judeans therefore said, "See how he loved him."
Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!
37 But some of them said, "Could not this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?"
And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?
38 So Yeshua, deeply moved again, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.
39 Yeshua said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days."
Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been [dead] four days.
40 Yeshua said to her, "Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see God's glory?"
Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
41 So they took away the stone. And Yeshua lifted up his eyes, and said, "Father, I thank you that you listened to me.
Then they took away the stone [from the place] where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up [his] eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
42 I know that you always listen to me, but because of the crowd that stands around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me."
And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said [it], that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
43 When he had said this, he shouted with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out."
And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.
44 The man who had died came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Yeshua said to them, "Free him, and let him go."
And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.
45 Therefore many of the Judeans, who came to Miriam and had seen the things which he did, believed in him.
Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.
46 But some of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them the things which Yeshua had done.
But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done.
47 The chief cohanim therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, "What are we doing? For this man does many signs.
Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.
48 If we leave him alone like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation."
If we let him thus alone, all [men] will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation.
49 But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being cohen hagadol that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all,
And one of them, [named] Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,
50 nor do you consider that it is advantageous for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish."
Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.
51 Now he did not say this of himself, but being cohen hagadol that year, he prophesied that Yeshua would die for the nation,
And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation;
52 and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.
And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.
53 So from that day on they plotted to kill him.
Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death.
54 Yeshua therefore walked no more openly among the Judeans, but departed from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim; and stayed there with his talmidim.
Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.
55 Now the Jewish Passover was near, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.
And the Jews’ passover was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.
56 Then they sought for Yeshua and spoke one with another, as they stood in the temple, "What do you think—that he is not coming to the feast at all?"
Then sought they for Jesus, and spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?
57 Now the chief cohanim and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, that they might arrest him.
Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he were, he should shew [it], that they might take him.
