< John 12 >
1 Then Iesus sixe dayes before ester came to Bethany where Lazarus was which was deed and who Iesus raysed from deeth.
Then Jesus, six days before the passover came into Bethany, where Lazarus, whom Jesus raised from the dead, was,
2 There they made him a supper and Martha served: But Lazarus was one of them that sate at the table with him.
Then they made a supper for Him there: and Martha was serving; and Lazarus was one of those sitting at the table with Him.
3 Then toke Mary a pounde of oyntmet called Nardus perfecte and precious and anoynted Iesus fete and wipt his fete with her heer and the housse was filled of the savre of the oyntmet.
Then Mary taking a pound of myrrh of spikenard, estimated very valuable, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odor of the myrrh.
4 Then sayde one of his disciples name Iudas Iscariot Simos sonne which afterwarde betrayed him:
Then Judas Iscariot, one of His disciples, the one about to betray Him, says:
5 why was not this oyntmet solde for thre hondred pence and geve to the poore?
Why was not this myrrh sold for three hundred denaria, and given to the poor?
6 This sayde he not that he cared for the pooer: but because he was a thefe and kept the bagge and bare that which was geven.
And He spoke this, not because there was a care to him for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the purse, and was carrying those things cast in.
7 Then sayde Iesus: Let her alone agaynst the daye of my buryinge she kept it.
Then Jesus said, Let her alone; she hath reserved this unto the day of my burial;
8 The poore all wayes shall ye have with you but me shall ye not all wayes have.
for you have the poor always with you; but you have not me always.
9 Moche people of the Iewes had knowledge that he was there. And they came not for Iesus sake only but yt they myght se Lazarus also whom he raysed from deeth.
then a great multitude of the Jews came not only on account of Jesus, but that they might see Lazarus, whom He raised from the dead; because he was there.
10 The hye prestes therfore held a counsell that they myght put Lazarus to deeth also
But the chief priest passed an edict that they would also slay Lazarus;
11 because that for his sake many of the Iewes went awaye and beleved on Iesus.
because through him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.
12 On the morowe moche people that were come to the feast when they hearde yt Iesus shuld come to Ierusalem
On the following day a great multitude having come to the feast, hearing that Jesus comes into Jerusalem,
13 toke braunches of palme trees and went and met him and cryed: Hosanna blessed is he that in the name of the Lorde commeth kynge of Israel.
They took the branches of the palm-trees, and went out to meet Him, and continued to cry out, Hosanna: blessed is He that cometh, in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel.
14 And Iesus got a yonge asse and sate thero accordinge to that which was writte:
And Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat upon him, as has been written,
15 feare not doughter of Sio beholde thy kynge cometh sittinge on an asses coolte.
Fear not, daughter of Zion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting upon the colt of a donkey.
16 These thinges vnderstode not his disciples at ye fyrst: but when Iesus was gloryfied then remembryd they that soche thinges were written of him and that soche thinges they had done vnto him.
But His disciples at first did not understand these things: but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written in reference to Him, and they did them to Him.
17 The people that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave and raysed him from deeth bare recorde.
Then the multitude being with Him witnessed that He called Lazarus out of the sepulcher, and raised him from the dead.
18 Therfore met him the people be cause they hearde yt he had done soche a myracle.
Therefore the multitude also went to meet Him, because they heard that He had wrought this miracle.
19 The Pharises therfore sayde amonge them selves: perceave ye how we prevayle no thinge? beholde the worlde goth awaye after him.
Then the Pharisees said to one another, You see, that you are prevailing as to nothing: behold, the world has gone away after Him.
20 Ther were certayne Grekes amoge them that came to praye at the feast:
And there was certain Greeks of those having come up that they might worship at the feast:
21 the same cam to Philip which was of Bethsayda a cyte in Galile and desired him sayinge: Syr we wolde fayne se Iesus.
then they came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and requested him, saying, Sir, we wish to see Jesus.
22 Philip came and tolde Andrew. And agayne Andrew and Philip tolde Iesus.
Philip comes and tells Andrew: Andrew and Philip go, and speak to Jesus.
23 And Iesus answered them sayinge: the houre is come yt the sonne of ma must be glorified.
And Jesus responds to them, saying, The hour has come, that the Son of man may be glorified.
24 Verely verely I saye vnto you except ye wheate corne fall into the grounde and dye it bydeth alone. Yf it dye it brengeth forth moche frute.
Truly, truly, I say unto you, Unless the grain of wheat having fallen into the ground may die, it remains alone; but if it may die, it produces much fruit.
25 He that loveth his lyfe shall destroye it: and he yt hateth his lyfe in this worlde shall kepe it vnto lyfe eternall. (aiōnios )
The one loving his soul shall lose it; but the one that hateth his soul in this world will preserve it unto eternal life. (aiōnios )
26 If eny man mynister vnto me let him folowe me and where I am there shall also my minister be. And yf eny man minister vnto me him will my father honoure.
If any one may minister unto me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall my minister be: if any one may minister unto me, the Father will honor him.
27 Now is my soule troubled and what shall I saye? Father delyver me from this houre: but therfore came I vnto this houre
Now my soul is troubled; and what do I say? Father, save me from this hour. But on this account I came to this hour.
28 Father glorify thy name. Then came ther a voyce fro heaven: I have glorified it and will glorify it agayne.
Father, glorify thy name. Then a voice came from heaven, I have indeed glorified thee, and will glorify thee again.
29 Then sayd the people yt stode by and hearde: it thoundreth. Other sayde an angell spake to him.
Then the multitudes standing, hearing, said, That it was thunder; others said, An angel has spoken to Him.
30 Iesus answered and sayde: this voyce cam not because of me but for youre sakes.
Jesus responded and said, This voice was not on account of me, but on account of you.
31 Now is the iudgement of this worlde: now shall ye prince of this worlde be cast out.
Now is the judgment of this world: now the prince of this world shall be cast out.
32 And I yf I were lifte vp from the erthe will drawe all men vnto me.
And if I may be lifted up from the earth, I will draw all men towards me.
33 This sayde Iesus signifyinge what deeth he shuld dye.
And He spoke this, signifying by what death He was about to die.
34 The people answered him: We have hearde of ye lawe yt Christ bydeth ever: and how sayest thou then that the sonne of man must be lifte vp? who is yt sonne of ma? (aiōn )
Then the multitude responded to Him; We have heard from the law that Christ abideth forever; and how do You say, That it behooveth the Son of man to be lifted up? who is this Son of man? (aiōn )
35 Then Iesus sayde vnto them: yet a lytell whyle is the light wt you. Walke whill ye have light lest the darcknes come on you. He that walketh in the darke wotteth not whither he goeth.
Then Jesus said to them, Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk about as you have the light, in order that the darkness may not overtake you: and he that walketh about in darkness does not know where he is going.
36 Whyll ye have light beleve on the light that ye maye be the chyldren of light. These thinges spake Iesus and departed and hyd him silfe fro them.
While you have the light, believe in the light, in order that you may be the sons of light. And Jesus spoke these things, and having gone out was hidden from them.
37 And though he had done so many myracles before them yet beleved not they on him
And He having done so many miracles in their presence, they were not believing on Him,
38 yt the sayinge of Esayas the Prophet myght be fulfilled yt he spake. Lorde who shall beleve oure sayinge? And to whom ys the arme of ye Lorde opened?
in order that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke, Lord, who hath believed our report? And to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
39 Therfore coulde they not beleve because yt Esaias sayth agayne:
Wherefore were they not able to believe, because Isaiah again said,
40 he hath blinded their eyes and hardened their hertes that they shuld not se with their eyes and vnderstonde with their hertes and shuld be converted and I shuld heale the.
He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; in order that they may not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and turn, and I shall heal them.
41 Soche thinges sayde Esaias when he sawe his glory and spake of him.
Isaiah said these things, because he saw His glory; and spoke concerning Him.
42 Neverthelesse amoge ye chefe rulers many beleved on him. But because of the pharises they wolde not be a knowen of it lest they shuld be excommunicate.
Nevertheless indeed many of the rulers also believed on Him; but they were not confessing Him on account of the Pharisees, in order that they might not be put out of the synagogues:
43 For they loved the prayse yt is geven of men more then the prayse that cometh of God.
for they loved the glory of the people more than the glory of God.
44 And Iesus cryed and sayde: he that beleveth on me beleveth not on me but on him yt sent me.
But Jesus cried out and said; The one believing on me, believes not on me, but on Him that sent me,
45 And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.
and the one seeing me, sees the one that sent me.
46 I am come a light into the worlde that whosoever beleveth on me shuld not byde in darcknes.
I have come a light into the world, in order that every one believing on me may not abide in darkness.
47 And yf eny man heare my wordes and beleve not I iudge him not. For I came not to iudge the worlde: but to save ye worlde.
And if any one may hear my words, and not keep them, I do not judge him: for I came not that I may judge the world, but that I may save the world.
48 He that refuseth me and receaveth not my wordes hath one that iudgeth him. The wordes that I have spoken they shall iudge him in ye last daye.
He that rejects me, and receiving not my words, has one judging him: the word which I have spoken, it will judge him in the last day.
49 For I have not spoken of my selfe: but the father which sent me he gave me a commaundemet what I shuld saye and what I shuld speake.
Because I have not spoken of Myself; but the Father Himself having sent me, gave me commandment, what I shall speak, and what I shall say.
50 And I knowe that this comaundement is lyfe everlastinge. Whatsoever I speake therfore eve as the father bade me so I speake. (aiōnios )
And I know that His commandment is eternal life. Now whatsoever thing I say, as the Father has spoken unto me, so I say. (aiōnios )
