< John 11 >
1 Was now a certain [man] ailing, Lazarus of Bethany of the village of Mary and Martha the sister of her;
And a certain one was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister.
2 Was now Mary the [one] having anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and having wiped the feet of Him with the hair of her, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
And Mary was the one anointing the Lord with myrrh, and wiping His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
3 Sent therefore the sisters to Him saying; Lord, behold [he] whom You love was being sick.
Then the sisters sent to Him, saying, Lord, behold the one whom thou lovest is sick.
4 Having heard then Jesus said; This sickness not is unto death but for the glory of God that may be glorified the Son of God through it.
And Jesus hearing said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.
5 was loving now Jesus Martha and the sister of her and Lazarus.
Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus, with Divine love.
6 When therefore He heard that he is sick, then indeed He remained in which He was [the] place two days.
Therefore when He heard that he was sick, He then remained two days in the place in which He was.
7 Then after this He says to the disciples; Let us go into Judea again.
Then after this He says to the disciples, Let us go again unto Judea.
8 Say to Him the disciples; Rabbi, just now were seeking You to stone the Jews, and again You are going there?
The disciples said to Him, Master, the Jews were but now seeking to stone thee; dost thou go hither again?
9 Answered (*k*) Jesus; Surely twelve hours are there in the day? If anyone shall walk in the day, not he stumbles, because the light of the world this he sees.
Jesus responded, Are there not twelve hours of the day? If any one may walk in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world:
10 if however anyone shall walk in the night, he stumbles, because the light not is in him.
if any one may walk in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.
11 These things He said and after this He says to them; Lazarus the friend of us has fallen asleep; but I go that I may awaken him.
He spoke these things: and after this He says to them, Our friend Lazarus is asleep; and I go that I may awaken him.
12 Said therefore the disciples (to Him; *N(K)O*) Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will get well.
Then the disciples said to Him, Lord, if he is asleep, he will be saved.
13 Had spoken however Jesus of the death of him; they however thought that of the rest of sleep He speaks.
But Jesus spoke concerning his death: and they thought that He spoke concerning the rest of sleep.
14 Then therefore said to them Jesus plainly; Lazarus has died.
Then however Jesus spoke to them openly, Lazarus is dead,
15 And I rejoice for sake of you, in order that you may believe, that not I was there; But let us go to him.
and I rejoice on account of you that I was not there, in order that you may believe; but let us go to him.
16 Said therefore Thomas who is being named Didymus to the fellow disciples; Let us go also us that we may die with Him.
Then Thomas, called Didymus, said to his fellow-disciples; Let us go too, that we may die with Him.
17 Having come therefore Jesus found him four already days having been in the tomb.
Then Jesus having come, found him having four days in the sepulcher.
18 Was now Bethany near Jerusalem about away stadia fifteen.
But Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs.
19 (and *k*) Many (now *no*) of the Jews had come unto (*N(k)O*) (concerning *k*) Martha and Mary that they may console them concerning the brother (of them. *k*)
And many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, that they might comfort them concerning their brother.
20 Therefore Martha, when she heard that (*k*) Jesus is coming, met with Him; Mary however in the house was sitting.
Then Martha, when she heard that Jesus comes, went to meet Him: and Mary sat in the house.
21 Said then Martha to Jesus; Lord, if You had been here, not then would (be dead *N(k)O*) the brother of mine.
Then Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
22 Nevertheless even now I know that as much as maybe You may ask God will give You God.
And now I know that, whatsoever things you may ask of God, God will give to you.
23 Says to her Jesus; Will rise again the brother of you.
Jesus says to her, Thy brother will rise again.
24 Says to him (*no*) Martha; I know that he will rise again in the resurrection in the last day.
Martha says to Him, I know he will rise again in the resurrection in the last day.
25 Said to her Jesus; I myself am the resurrection and the life; the [one] believing in Me myself even if even if he shall die he will live,
Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection and the life; the one believing on me, though he may die, shall live: and
26 and everyone who is living and believing in Me myself certainly not he shall die to the age. Believe you this? (aiōn )
every one living and believing on me can never die: do you believe this? (aiōn )
27 She says to Him; Yes Lord; I myself have believed that You yourself are the Christ the Son of God the [One] into the world coming.
She says to Him, Yes, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, come into the world.
28 And (these things *N(k)O*) having said she went away and she called Mary the sister of her secretly having said; The Teacher is come and He calls you.
And having said this, she departed, and called her sister Mary, speaking secretly, The Teacher is present, and calls you.
29 She (then *no*) when she heard ([she] rose up *N(k)O*) quickly and (was coming *N(k)O*) to Him.
She, when she heard, arises quickly, and comes to Him:
30 Not yet now had come Jesus into the village, but was (still *no*) in the place where met with Him Martha.
Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was yet in the place where Martha met Him.
31 The then Jews who are being with her in the house and consoling her, having seen Mary that soon she rose up and went out, followed after her, (having supposed *N(K)O*) that she is going to the tomb that she may weep there.
Then the Jews being with her in the house, and comforting her, seeing Mary, that she arose up quickly and went out, followed her, thinking that she goes to the tomb in order that she may weep there.
32 Therefore Mary when she came to where was (*k*) Jesus, having seen Him she fell of Him (at *N(k)O*) the feet saying to Him; Lord, if You had been here, not then would my have died brother.
Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was, seeing Him, fell at His feet, saying to Him, Lord, if Thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
33 Jesus therefore when He saw her weeping and the having come with her Jews weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and troubled Himself
Then when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews, having come with her, weeping, He groaned in spirit, and troubled Himself,
34 And He said; Where have you laid him? They say to Him; Lord, do come and do see.
and said, Where have you laid him? They say to Him, Lord, come and see.
36 Were saying therefore the Jews; Behold how He was loving him!
Then the Jews were saying, Behold, how He loved him as a friend!
37 Some however of them said; Surely was able this [man] who having opened the eyes of the blind to have caused that also this one not may have died?
And some of them said, Was not this One, having opened the eyes of the blind, able to bring it to pass, that he indeed should not die?
38 Jesus therefore again being deeply moved in Himself He comes to the tomb; It was now a cave, and a stone was lying against it.
Then Jesus again groaning in Himself comes to the tomb; and it was a cave, and a stone was laid upon it.
39 Says Jesus; do take away the stone. Says to Him the sister of the [one] (having deceased *N(k)O*) Martha; Lord, already he stinks; four days for it is.
Jesus says; Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of the dead, says to Him; Lord, already he smelleth: for he is dead four days.
40 Says to her Jesus; Surely I said to you that if you shall believe you will see the glory of God?
Jesus says to her; Did I not tell thee, that, if thou canst believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?
41 They took away therefore the stone (where was who having died laid. *K*) Now Jesus lifted [His] eyes upwards and said; Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.
Then they took away the stone; and Jesus lifted up His eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee, because Thou hast heard Me.
42 I myself and knew that always Me You hear; but on account of the crowd which already standing around I said [it], that they may believe that You yourself Me sent.
I know that Thou dost always hear Me; but on account of the multitude standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that Thou didst send Me.
43 And these things having said in a voice loud He cried out; Lazarus, come forth.
And speaking these things, He cried out with a great voice, Lazarus, come forth.
44 (and *k*) Came forth the [one] having died bound the feet and the hands with linen strips, and the face of him in a headcloth had bound about. Says to them Jesus: do unbind him and do allow him to go.
And the dead came out, bound as to his feet and hands with graveclothes; and his face bound round with a napkin. Jesus says to them, Loose him, and let him go.
45 Many therefore of the Jews having come to Mary and having seen (what things *NK(o)*) He did (Jesus *k*) believed in Him.
Then many of the Jews, having come to Mary and seeing the things which He did, believed on Him:
46 some however of them went to the Pharisees and told to them what did (*ko*) Jesus.
but certain ones of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them the things which Jesus did.
47 Gathered therefore the chief priests and the Pharisees a council and they were saying; What are we to do? For this man many does signs!
Then the chief priests and Pharisees assembled the Sanhedrin, and continued to say, What are we doing? because this man is doing many miracles.
48 If we shall let him alone Him like this, all will believe in Him, and will come the Romans and will take away of us both the place and the nation.
If we thus let Him alone, all will believe on Him: and the Romans will come and take away our place and nation.
49 One however certain of them Caiaphas, high priest being on the year same, said to them; You yourselves not know no [thing],
But one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them,
50 nor (consider you *N(k)O*) that it is profitable (for you *N(K)O*) that one man may die for the people, and not all the nation may perish.
You know nothing, you do not consider that it is profitable to you, that one man may die for the people, and the whole nation perish not.
51 This now from himself not he said, but high priest being on the year that he prophesied that was about (*k*) Jesus to die for the nation,
And he spoke this not of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was about to die for the nation.
52 and not for the nation only but that also the children of God those scattered He may gather together into one.
And not only for the nation, but that He may gather into one the children of God dispersed abroad.
53 From that [very] therefore day (they plotted *N(k)O*) that they may kill Him.
Then from that day they passed the verdict, that they would kill Him.
54 (*no*) Therefore Jesus no longer no longer publicly was walking among the Jews, but went away from there into the region near the wilderness to Ephraim being named a city, And there And there (He stayed *N(k)O*) with the disciples (of him. *k*)
Therefore Jesus walked no more publicly among the Jews, but went away thence into the country near the desert, into a city called Ephraim; and there tarried with His disciples.
55 Was now near the Passover of the Jews, and went up many to Jerusalem out of the region before the Passover so that they may purify themselves.
And the passover of the Jews was nigh, and many came up out of the country into Jerusalem before the passover, in order that they might purify themselves.
56 They were seeking therefore Jesus and were saying among one another in the temple already standing; What does it seem to you, that certainly not He may come to the feast?
Then they were seeking Jesus, and standing in the temple, they were saying one with another, What seems to you; that He may not come to the feast?
57 Had given now (also *k*) the chief priests and the Pharisees (commands *N(K)O*) that if anyone shall know where He is he shall show [it], so that they may seize Him.
And both the high priests and Pharisees had given commandment, if any one should know where He is, he should communicate it, in order that they might arrest Him.
