John 11
1 [One time] there was a man whose name was Lazarus who was [very] sick. He lived in Bethany [village], where his [older] sisters Mary and Martha also lived.
Bijaše neki bolesnik, Lazar iz Betanije, iz sela Marije i sestre joj Marte.
2 Mary was the woman who [later] poured perfume on the feet of the Lord [Jesus], and then wiped his feet with her hair.
Marija bijaše ono pomazala Gospodina pomašću i otrla mu noge svojom kosom. Njezin dakle brat Lazar bijaše bolestan.
3 So the two sisters sent [someone to tell] Jesus [about Lazarus], saying, “Lord, the one you love [very much] is very sick.”
Sestre stoga poručiše Isusu: “Gospodine, evo onaj koga ljubiš, bolestan je.”
4 [They hoped that Jesus would come], but when Jesus heard the message, he said, “His being sick will not end in his dying. Instead, it will result in [people realizing] how great God is, and that I, God’s son, may be honored {that people may honor me, God’s son}, because of [what I will do].”
Čuvši to, Isus reče: “Ta bolest nije na smrt, nego na slavu Božju, da se po njoj proslavi Sin Božji.”
5 Jesus loved Martha and her [younger] sister [Mary] and Lazarus.
A Isus ljubljaše Martu i njezinu sestru i Lazara.
6 But when Jesus heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed [where he was] for two more days.
Ipak, kad je čuo za njegovu bolest, ostade još dva dana u onome mjestu gdje se nalazio.
7 But Jesus [wanted to see Lazarus]. So he said to us disciples, “Let’s go back to Judea.”
Istom nakon toga reče učenicima: “Pođimo opet u Judeju!”
8 We said, “Teacher, just a short while ago the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] wanted to [kill you by] throwing stones at you. So ([we think that you should not] go back there again!/[are you sure that you want to] go back there again?) [RHQ]”
Kažu mu učenici: “Učitelju, Židovi su sad tražili da te kamenuju, pa da opet ideš onamo?”
9 [To show us that nothing bad could happen to him until the time that God had chosen] [MET], Jesus replied, “There are [RHQ] twelve hours in the daytime, [which is enough time to do what God wants us to do]. People who walk in the daytime will not stumble [over things they cannot see], because they see things by the light from the sun.
Odgovori Isus: “Nema li dan dvanaest sati? Hodi li tko danju, ne spotiče se jer vidi svjetlost ovoga svijeta.
10 It is when people walk in the nighttime that they stumble over things, because they have no light.”
Hodi li tko noću, spotiče se jer nema svjetlosti u njemu.”
11 After he said that, he told us, “Our friend Lazarus has gone to sleep. But I will go there so that I can wake him up.”
To reče, a onda im dometnu: “Lazar, prijatelj naš, spava, no idem probuditi ga.”
12 So we said to him, “Lord, if he is sleeping, he will get well. [So you do not need to risk your life by going there].”
Rekoše mu nato učenici: “Gospodine, ako spava, ozdravit će.”
13 Jesus was speaking [figuratively] about Lazarus’ death, but we thought that he was talking about really being asleep.
No Isus to reče o njegovoj smrti, a oni pomisliše da govori o spavanju, o snu.
14 So then he told us plainly, “Lazarus is dead.
Tada im Isus reče posve otvoreno: “Lazar je umro.
15 But for your sake I am glad that I was not there [when he died], because I want you to believe [more firmly that I] ([am the Messiah/came from God]). So now, [instead of staying here], let’s go to him.”
Ja se radujem što ne bijah ondje, i to poradi vas - da uzvjerujete. Nego pođimo k njemu!”
16 Then Thomas, who was {whom they} called ‘The Twin’, said to the rest of us disciples, “Let’s all go, so that we may die with Jesus [when his enemies kill him].”
Nato Toma zvani Blizanac reče suučenicima: “Hajdemo i mi da umremo s njime!”
17 When we arrived [close to Bethany], someone told Jesus that Lazarus [had died and had been buried and his body had] been in the tomb for four days.
Kad je dakle Isus stigao, nađe da je onaj već četiri dana u grobu.
18 Bethany is less than (two miles/three kilometers) from Jerusalem.
Betanija bijaše blizu Jeruzalema otprilike petnaest stadija.
19 Many Jews had come [from Jerusalem] to console Martha and Mary over [the death of] their [younger] brother.
A mnogo Židova bijaše došlo tješiti Martu i Mariju zbog brata njihova.
20 When Martha heard [someone say] that Jesus was coming, she went [along the road] to meet him. But Mary stayed in the house.
Kad Marta doču da Isus dolazi, pođe mu u susret dok je Marija ostala u kući.
21 When Martha [got to where Jesus was], she said to him, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died [because you would have healed him]!
Marta reče Isusu: “Gospodine, da si bio ovdje, brat moj ne bi umro.
22 But I know that even now God will do for you whatever you ask [concerning my brother].”
Ali i sada znam: što god zaišteš od Boga, dat će ti.”
23 Jesus said to her, “Your brother will become alive again!”
Kaza joj Isus: “Uskrsnut će brat tvoj!”
24 Martha said to him, “I know that he will become alive again when all people become alive again on the [Judgment] day.”
A Marta mu odgovori: “Znam da će uskrsnuti o uskrsnuću, u posljednji dan.”
25 Jesus said to her, “I am the one who [enables people to] become alive again and who [causes people to] live [eternally]. Those who believe in me, even if they die, will live [again].
Reče joj Isus: “Ja sam uskrsnuće i život: tko u mene vjeruje, ako i umre, živjet će.
26 Furthermore, all those who believe in me while they are alive, [their souls] will not die [forever]. Do you believe that?” (aiōn g165)
I tko god živi i vjeruje u mene, neće umrijeti nikada. Vjeruješ li ovo?” (aiōn g165)
27 She said to him, “Yes, Lord! I believe that you are the Messiah, (the Son of God/the man who is also God). You are the one [God promised to send] into the world!”
Odgovori mu: “Da, Gospodine! Ja vjerujem da si ti Krist, Sin Božji, Onaj koji dolazi na svijet!”
28 After she said that, she returned [to the house] and took her [younger] sister, Mary, aside and said to her, “The Teacher is close [to our village], and he wants to talk to you.”
Rekavši to ode, zovnu svoju sestru Mariju i reče joj krišom: “Učitelj je ovdje i zove te.”
29 When Mary heard that, she got up quickly and went to him.
A ona, čim doču, brzo ustane i pođe k njemu.
30 Jesus had not yet entered the village; he was still at the place where Martha met him.
Isus još ne bijaše ušao u selo, nego je dotada bio na mjestu gdje ga je Marta susrela.
31 The Jews who were in the house with Mary, consoling her, saw Mary get up quickly and go outside. So they followed her, thinking that she was going to the tomb [where they had buried Lazarus], in order to cry there.
Kad Židovi, koji su s Marijom bili u kući i tješili je, vidješe kako je brzo ustala i izišla, pođoše za njom; mišljahu da ide na grob plakati.
32 When Mary got to where Jesus was and saw him, she prostrated herself at his feet and said, “Lord, if you had been here, my [younger] brother would not have died!”
A kad Marija dođe onamo gdje bijaše Isus i kad ga ugleda, baci mu se k nogama govoreći: “Gospodine, da si bio ovjde, brat moj ne bi umro.”
33 When Jesus saw her crying, and saw that the Jews who had come with her were also crying, he was very angry [that Satan had caused Lazarus to die] (OR, very troubled) and disturbed in his spirit.
Kad Isus vidje kako plače ona i Židovi koji je dopratiše, potresen u duhu i uzbuđen
34 He said, “Where have you buried (him/his body)?” They said to him, “Lord, come and see.”
upita: “Kamo ste ga položili?” Odgovoriše mu: “Gospodine, dođi i pogledaj!”
35 Jesus began to cry.
I zaplaka Isus.
36 Then [some of] the Jews said, “Look how much he loved Lazarus!”
Nato su Židovi govorili: “Gle, kako ga je ljubio!”
37 But some others said, “He enabled a blind man to see. So (he should have been able to [heal this man so that] he did not die!/why did he not [heal this man so that] he did not die?) [RHQ]”
A neki između njih rekoše: “Zar on, koji je slijepcu otvorio oči, nije mogao učiniti da ovaj ne umre?”
38 Within himself Jesus was again very angry [about Lazarus dying] (OR, very troubled). He came to the tomb. It was a cave. The entrance had been covered with a large stone.
Isus onda, ponovno potresen, pođe grobu. Bila je to pećina, a na nju navaljen kamen.
39 Jesus said, “Take away the stone!” Martha, [who, as I mentioned before, was an older] sister of the man who had died, said, “Lord, his [body] has been [in the tomb] for four days, so now there will be a bad smell!”
Isus zapovjedi: “Odvalite kamen!” Kaže mu pokojnikova sestra Marta: “Gospodine, već zaudara. Ta četvrti je dan.”
40 Jesus said to her, “I told [RHQ] you that if you believed [in] ([me/what I can do]), you would see how great God is! Have [you forgotten that]?”
Kaže joj Isus: “Nisam li ti rekao: budeš li vjerovala, vidjet ćeš slavu Božju?”
41 So they took away the stone. Then Jesus looked up [toward heaven] and said, “My Father, I thank you that you heard me [when I prayed about this earlier].
Odvališe dakle kamen. A Isus podiže oči i reče: “Oče, hvala ti što si me uslišao.
42 I know that you always hear me [when I pray]. But instead [of just praying silently], I said that for the sake of the people who are standing here. I want them to believe that you sent me.”
Ja sam znao da me svagda uslišavaš; no rekoh to zbog nazočnog mnoštva: da vjeruju da si me ti poslao.”
43 After he said that, he shouted, “Lazarus, come out!”
Rekavši to povika iza glasa: “Lazare, izlazi!”
44 The man who [had been] dead came out! The strips of cloth were still wrapped around his [hands and feet], and a cloth was still around his face, [but he came out]! Jesus said to them, “Take off the cloths so that he can walk easily!” [So they did that].
I mrtvac iziđe, noge mu i ruke bile povezane povojima, a lice omotano ručnikom. Nato Isus reče: “Odriješite ga i pustite neka ide!”
45 As a result, many of the Jews who had come to [see] Mary and who had seen what Jesus did, believed that he ([was the Messiah/had come from God]).
Tada mnogi Židovi koji bijahu došli k Mariji, kad vidješe što Isus učini, povjerovaše u nj.
46 But some of the [others] went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.
A neki od njih odu farizejima i pripovjede im što Isus učini.
47 So the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered all the members of the [Jewish] Council together. They started saying [to each other], “What are we going to do [about Jesus]? He is performing many miracles!
Stoga glavari svećenički i farizeji sazvaše Vijeće. Govorili su: “Što da radimo? Ovaj čovjek čini mnoga znamenja.
48 If we allow him to keep [doing this], everyone will believe (in him/that he [is the Messiah]), [and they will make him their king]. Then the Roman [army] will come and destroy our Temple and our whole nation of Israel!”
Ako ga pustimo tako, svi će povjerovati u nj pa će doći Rimljani i oduzeti nam ovo mjesto i narod!”
49 One of the [Jewish Council] members was Caiaphas. He was the Jewish high priest that year. [Hinting that they should get rid of Jesus], he said to them, “You [talk as though you] do not know anything [HYP]!
A jedan od njih - Kajfa, veliki svećenik one godine - reče im: “Vi ništa ne znate.
50 You do not realize that it would be much better for us if one man died for the sake of the people rather than that [the Romans kill] all the [people of our Jewish] nation.”
I ne mislite kako je za vas bolje da jedan čovjek umre za narod, nego da sav narod propadne!”
51 He said that, not because he thought of it himself. Instead, since he was the high priest that year, he was prophesying that Jesus would die for the whole [Jewish] nation.
To ne reče sam od sebe, nego kao veliki svećenik one godine prorokova da Isus ima umrijeti za narod;
52 But he was also prophesying that Jesus would die, not just for the Jews, but for all the people living in other lands who [would belong] to God, in order that he would unite [all of them into] one [group].
ali ne samo za narod nego i zato da raspršene sinove Božje skupi u jedno.
53 So from that day the [Jewish leaders] started to make plans how they could kill Jesus.
Toga dana dakle odluče da ga ubiju.
54 Because of that, Jesus no longer traveled around publicly among the Jewish people. Instead, he left [Jerusalem, along] with us disciples, and went to a village called Ephraim, in an area near the desolate region. We stayed there [for a while].
Zbog toga se Isus više nije javno kretao među Židovima, nego je odatle otišao u kraj blizu pustinje, u grad koji se zove Efrajim. Tu se zadržavao s učenicima.
55 When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover [celebration], many [Jews] went up to Jerusalem from other places in the country. They went there to perform the rituals to make themselves acceptable [to God] before the Passover [celebration started].
Bijaše blizu židovska Pasha i mnogi iz toga kraja uziđoše prije Pashe u Jeruzalem da se očiste.
56 The Jewish chief priests and Pharisees issued an order that if anyone found out where Jesus was, that person should report it to them, in order that they could seize him. [So the people thought that Jesus would] probably [not dare to come to the celebration]. But they kept looking for him, and as they were standing in the Temple [courtyard] they were saying to each other, “What do you think? He will not come to the celebration, will he?”
Iskahu dakle Isusa te se stojeći u Hramu zapitkivahu: “Što vam se čini? Zar on ne kani doći na Blagdan?”
A glavari svećenički i farizeji izdadoše naredbu: ako tko sazna gdje je, neka dojavi da ga uhvate.
