< John 11 >

1 Now a certain man, named Lazarus, of Bethany, was lying ill-- Bethany being the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
Betanitse beyirwo Alazari eteets ash iko shoodtni b́ tesh, Bitaniya eteyru man Mariyamnat bmish Martan bo beyru galuni b tesh.
2 (It was the Mary who poured the perfume over the Lord and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.)
Mariyami etetsmanwere doonzo tufats shitwo futat b took s'iron firtsuni, shodirúwonu bi eshu Alazari b́ tesh.
3 So the sisters sent to Him to say, "Master, he whom you hold dear is ill."
Mish gitwotswre, «Doonzono! n shunfo shoodwtsere» ett Iyesusok woshbok'ri.
4 Jesus received the message and said, "This illness is not to end in death, but is to promote the glory of God, in order that the Son of God may be glorified by it."
Iyesusu man b́ shishtsok'on, «Shodan k'irosh betsitkaliye, s'uznmó Ik'osh mango b́ wotitwok'onat Ik' na'o bín b́ mangishe» bíet.
5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
Iyesus Martanat bmish Mariyamna bo eshu Alazarnowere, shuna b́ shunfo.
6 When, however, He heard that Lazarus was ill, He still remained two days in that same place.
Mansh Alazar shodo b́ shishiyakon b́beyrmanok git aawo k'az b́ jin.
7 Then, after that, He said to the disciples, "Let us return to Judaea."
Maniyakon b́ danifwotssh, «Woore Yhud datsats ando aanar amone» boeti.
8 "Rabbi," exclaimed the disciples, "the Jews have just been trying to stone you, and do you think of going back there again?"
B́ danifwotsu, «Danifono! ayhudiwots karn aawotse shútson neen jot'oshe bogeyri bo teshi, eshe nee ando manmaantsan amooshe ngeyiri?» boet.
9 "Are there not twelve hours in the day?" replied Jesus. "If any one walks in the daytime, he does not stumble--because he sees the light of this world.
Iyesus hanek'o ett boosh bí aani, «Ik aawotse tatse git sa'atosha? Aawon shairwo datsan shááno b́ bek'irwosh t'ugo bín dikratse.
10 But if a man walks by night, he does stumble, because the light is not in him."
Ernmó t'úwon sha'irwo shááno b́gitsotse b́deshawosh t'ugo bíne b́dikiti.»
11 He said this, and afterwards He added, "Our friend Lazarus is sleeping, but I will go and wake him."
Iyesus man boosh b́keewiyakon, «No mash Alazar tokrwtsere, taamo bín tokrotse tuzosh ametuwe» bíet.
12 "Master," said the disciples, "if he is asleep he will recover."
B́danifwotstswere, «Doonzono! tokratni b́fa'oni wotiyal bére shamp'itwe etee» boeti.
13 Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought He referred to the rest taken in ordinary sleep.
Iyesus man b́keewirwe Alazar K'iri jangosha b́ tesh, ernmó b́ tokeri jango b́keewirwok'owa boosh bíari,
14 So then He told them plainly,
Mansh Iyesus kitsdek't́ sháánon hank'o ett boosh b́ keewi, «Alazar k'irre,
15 "Lazarus is dead; and for your sakes I am glad I was not there, in order that you may believe. But let us go to him."
It it amanitwok'o taa manoke ti aalo itsh taan geneúshre, andmó b́ maants amone.»
16 "Let us go also," Thomas, the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, "that we may die with him."
Manoor Didimosi eteetso Tomas b́ danif k'oshwotswere, «Bínton no k'iritwok'o nowoor amone» boet.
17 On His arrival Jesus found that Lazarus had already been three days in the tomb.
Iyesus manok b́ bodtsok'on Alazari duketsi awd aawo b́ jiniyakon amt b́daatsi.
18 Bethany was near Jerusalem, the distance being a little less than two miles;
Betaniya Iyerusalematse keez kilo metrok'oyi bwoki.
19 and a considerable number of the Jews were with Martha and Mary, having come to express sympathy with them on the death of their brother.
Ayhudiyotsitse aywots Martanat Mariyamn boeshu b́ k'irtsosh boon kup'iyosh bowok waatni bo tesh.
20 Martha, however, as soon as she heard the tidings, "Jesus is coming," went to meet Him; but Mary remained sitting in the house.
Marta Iyesus woo b shishtsok'on bín dek'osh bweyi, Mariyammó mootsa btesh.
21 So Martha came and spoke to Jesus. "Master, if you had been here," she said, "my brother would not have died.
Marta Iyesussh, «Doonzono! nee hanoka nfa'oni wotink'e ti eshu k'irrawnk'e b́teshi,
22 And even now I know that whatever you ask God for, God will give you."
Ernmó andoru nk'onitu jamo Ik'o neesh b́imetwok'o danefe» bí et.
23 "Your brother shall rise again," replied Jesus.
Iyesuswere «Ni eshu k'irotse aaniy tuwitwe» bíet.
24 "I know," said Martha, "that he will rise again at the resurrection, on the last day."
Martawere, «Dúr s'úwatse k'irtswots k'iro da'ar bo tuwor bíwere k'irotse b́ tuwitwok'o danfee» bí et.
25 "I am the Resurrection and the Life," said Jesus; "he who believes in me, even if he has died, he shall live;
Iyesuswere, «K'ir tuwonat kashon taane, taan amantso b́k'iriyaloru kashone b́beeti,
26 and every one who is living and is a believer in me shall never, never die. Do you believe this?" (aiōn g165)
Kashon befetst taan amants jamo k'irratse, han amanitwiya?» bíet. (aiōn g165)
27 "Yes, Master," she replied; "I thoroughly believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."
Bíwere, «Ee doonzono! nee datsats waatso Krstosi Ik' na'o nwottsok'o amanitwe» bíet.
28 After saying this, she went and called her sister Mary privately, telling her, "The Rabbi is here and is asking for you."
Marta han bkeewiyakon b mishsh amaat «Danifo waat neene b́ s'eegiri» etaat shashkon b s'eegi.
29 So she, on hearing that, rose up quickly to go to Him.
Mariyam man b shishtsok'on kááron tuwat bíyok bíami.
30 Now Jesus was not yet come into the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met Him.
Manoor Iyesus Marta bín bbek'ori b́beyirwoka bako galots kindrafa'e b́tesh.
31 So the Jews who were with Mary in the house sympathizing with her, when they saw that she had risen hastily and had gone out, followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep aloud there.
Mariyami kup'iyosh waat́ mootse binton towat beyiru ayhudiwots Mariyam kaaron tuwat bkesho bek't Alazar doowo maants amr biepetwok'o boosh bíarere b shuutso bo tuwi.
32 Mary then, when she came to Jesus and saw Him, fell at His feet and exclaimed, "Master, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."
Mariyam Iyesus beyirwok waat bín bbek'tsok'on b́ gubrats dihat, «Doonzono, nee hanoke fa'ane wotink'e ti eshu k'irrawk'ee b́ teshi» bi'eti.
33 Seeing her weeping aloud, and the Jews in like manner weeping who had come with her, Jesus, curbing the strong emotion of His spirit,
Iyesuswere bínton waatswotswere boepfere b́bek'tsok'on b́ shayiri fayon shiyanat,
34 though deeply troubled, asked them, "Where have you laid him?" "Master, come and see," was their reply.
«Aawoke bín it duuki?» bíet. Bowere, «Doonzono! waa s'iile» boet.
35 Jesus wept.
Iyesuswere bí áác'uwo b́kuut'i.
36 "See how dear he held him," said the Jews.
Mansh Ayhudiwots, «Aawk'o bín b́shunfok'o s'iilere» boet.
37 But others of them asked, "Was this man who opened the blind man's eyes unable to prevent this man from dying?"
Boyitsi ik ikwotsmo, «Ááwdogo ááwo kashitsan, ashaan b́k'irrawok'o woshomawiyank'a b́teshi?» bo eti.
38 Jesus, however, again restraining His strong feeling, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone had been laid against the mouth of it.
Iyesus ayidek't shiyanefere doowo maants bíami, dowonwere shútson ipeek shúts gop'a b́tesh.
39 "Take away the stone," said Jesus. Martha, the sister of the dead man, exclaimed, "Master, by this time there is a foul smell; for it is three days since he died."
Iyesus, «Shútsman k'aa'úbayere» bí eti. K'irtso mish Martaá, «Doonzono b́ k'irihakon awd aawo wotere, and b́ sháák'o shok'etwe» biet.
40 "Did I not promise you," replied Jesus, "that if you believe, you shall see the glory of God?"
Iyesuswere, «Niamaniyalee Ik'o mangone bek'etune eratstáá neesha?» bíet.
41 So they removed the stone. Then Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, "Father, I thank Thee that Thou hast heard me.
Ashuwotswere shútso k'aaú bobazi, maniyere hakon Iyesus dambaan s'iilt, «Nihono! taan n shishtsosh mango neesh boree,
42 I know that Thou always hearest me; but for the sake of the crowd standing round I have said this--that they may believe that Thou didst send me."
Jam aawonor taan nshishetwok'o danfee, ernmó han ti et, hanoke need'iru ashuwots taan nee nwoshtsok'o bo amanisha etaatniye» bíet.
43 After speaking thus, He called out in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out."
Iyesus man b́keeswihakon «Alazaroo! waa kee!» ett k'áári eenon b́keewi.
44 The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped in cloths, and his face wrapped round with a towel. "Untie him," said Jesus, "and let him go free."
K'irtso Alazarwere b́ kishwotsnat b́ tufwotsn duuni tahon bo t'at'etsok'on dowootse b́ keshi, b́shitsonwere tahon b́t'at'etsok'ona botesh, Iyesuswere, «Bín bish k'rore, amee!» bí eti.
45 Thereupon a considerable number of the Jews--namely those who had come to Mary and had witnessed His deeds--became believers in Him;
Mariyami ang kup'iyosh wáát teshts ayhudi wotsitse ayuwots b́k'altso bek't Iyesusn boamani.
46 though some of them went off to the Pharisees and told them what He had done.
Ik ikwotsmo ferisawino eteefwotsok amt́ Iyesus b́ k'altso boosh bo keewi.
47 Therefore the High Priests and the Pharisees held a meeting of the Sanhedrin. "What steps are we taking?" they asked one another; "for this man is performing a great number of miracles.
Mansh kahni naashwotsnat ferisawino eteefwots moosh mooshirwotsi kakudek't hank'o boet, «Ashaan ay adits keewwotsi b́ finirwotse awuk'o nok'alink'e k'úna b́k'aniti?
48 If we leave him alone in this way, everybody will believe in him, and the Romans will come and blot out both our city and our nation."
S'ker hank'on bín k'aynok'riyalo ashjamo bín amanitwe, Rom dats ashuwots wáár no beyokonat no ash jamo ishbazetune.»
49 But one of them, named Caiaphas, being High Priest that year, said, "You know nothing about it.
Ernmó boyitsi iko mandúr kahni naashwotsatsi k'aabo K'eyaf hank'owa bíet, «It eegor danatste,
50 You do not reflect that it is to your interest that one man should die for the people rather than the whole nation perish."
Ashjamo b́t'afoniyere ik asho ashjami shegro b́k'iro itsh b́k'anitwok'o b́jamon t'iwintsratsteya?»
51 It was not as a mere man that he thus spoke. But being High Priest that year he was inspired to declare that Jesus was to die for the nation,
Bí man b́ keew b́ took danonali b́tesh, mandúr bí kahni naash abaatsi k'aabo b́teshtsotsena, Iyesus ayhudi ashuwots shegro b́k'irtwok'o kitsosha bek'han b́keewi.
52 and not for the nation only, but in order to unite into one body all the far-scattered children of God.
B́k'iritwere ayhudiwots mec'rosh b́woterawo, bad'ts Ik'inana'úwotsnowere ikok kakwosha b́tesh.
53 So from that day forward they planned and schemed in order to put Him to death.
Mansh manots aawotstson Iyesusi bo'úd'itwok'o shiyebowts.
54 Therefore Jesus no longer went about openly among the Jews, but He left that neighbourhood and went into the district near the Desert, to a town called Ephraim, and remained there with the disciples.
Maniyakon Iyesus ayhudiwots dagotse be'at anaaneratse b́tesh, ernmó manoke kesht worwi ganoke fa'a Efremi eteef kitu maants bíami, manokno b́danifwotsnton k'az b́ oori.
55 The Jewish Passover was coming near, and many from that district went up to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.
Ayhudi Fazig baaliyo t'intnib́teshi, boyitsi ayuwotswere fazigi baliyiman b́bodfetso botoko s'ayintsosh gat'ariyon Iyerusalem maants bowáá.
56 They therefore looked out for Jesus, and asked one another as they stood in the Temple, "What do you think? --will he come to the Festival at all?"
Bowere Ik' mootse need'dek't Iyesus b́wááfetso bokotfotse, «Eebi it asaabiri? Baliyoke areratsa itsha?» Ett boatsatsewo bo aatefrera botesh.
57 Now the High Priests and the Pharisees had issued orders that if any one knew where He was, he should give information, so that they might arrest Him.
