John 12
1 Jesus, however, six days before the Passover, came to Bethany, where Lazarus was whom He had raised from the dead.
Therfor Jhesus bifor sixe daies of pask cam to Bethanye, where Lazarus hadde be deed, whom Jhesus reiside.
2 So they gave a dinner there in honour of Jesus, at which Martha waited at table, but Lazarus was one of the guests who were with Him.
And thei maden to hym a soopere there, and Martha mynystride to hym; and Lazarus was oon of men that saten at the mete with hym.
3 Availing herself of the opportunity, Mary took a pound weight of pure spikenard, very costly, and poured it over His feet, and wiped His feet with her hair, so that the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
Therfor Marie took a pound of oynement of trewe narde precious, and anoyntide the feet of Jhesu, and wipte hise feet with hir heeris; and the hous was fulfillid of the sauour of the oynement.
4 Then said Judas (the Iscariot, one of the Twelve--the one who afterwards betrayed Jesus),
Therfor Judas Scarioth, oon of hise disciplis, that was to bitraye hym,
5 "Why was not that perfume sold for 300 shillings and the money given to the poor?"
seide, Whi is not this oynement seeld for thre hundrid pens, and is youun to nedi men?
6 The reason he said this was not that he cared for the poor, but that he was a thief, and that being in charge of the money-box, he used to steal what was put into it.
But he seide this thing, not for it perteynede to hym of nedi men, but for he was a theef, and he hadde the pursis, and bar tho thingis that weren sent.
7 But Jesus interposed. "Do not blame her," He said, "allow her to have kept it for the time of my preparation for burial.
Therfor Jhesus seide, Suffre ye hir, that in to the day of my biriyng sche kepe that;
8 For the poor you always have with you, but you have not me always."
for ye schulen euermore haue pore men with you, but ye schulen not euermore haue me.
9 Now it became widely known among the Jews that Jesus was there; but they came not only on His account, but also in order to see Lazarus whom He had brought back to life.
Therfore myche puple of Jewis knew, that Jhesus was there; and thei camen, not oonli for Jhesu, but to se Lazarus, whom he hadde reisid fro deth.
10 The High Priests, however, consulted together to put Lazarus also to death,
But the princis of prestis thouyten to sle Lazarus,
11 for because of him many of the Jews left them and became believers in Jesus.
for manye of the Jewis wenten awei for him, and bileueden in Jhesu.
12 The next day a great crowd of those who had come to the Festival, hearing that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
But on the morew a myche puple, that cam togidere to the feeste dai, whanne thei hadden herd, that Jhesus cam to Jerusalem,
13 took branches of the palm trees and went out to meet Him, shouting as they went, "God save him! Blessings on him who comes in the name of the Lord--even on the King of Israel!"
token braunchis of palmes, and camen forth ayens hym, and crieden, Osanna, blessid is the kyng of Israel, that cometh in the name of the Lord.
14 And Jesus, having procured a young ass, sat upon it, just as the Scripture says,
And Jhesus foond a yonge asse, and sat on hym,
15 "Fear not, Daughter of Zion! See, thy King is coming riding on an ass's colt."
as it is writun, The douytir of Syon, nyle thou drede; lo! thi kyng cometh, sittynge on `an asse fole.
16 The meaning of this His disciples did not understand at the time; but after Jesus was glorified they recollected that this was written about Him, and that they had done this to Him.
Hise disciplis knewen not first these thingis, but whanne Jhesus was glorified, thanne thei hadden mynde, for these thingis weren writun of hym, and these thingis thei diden to hym.
17 The large number of people, however, who had been present when He called Lazarus out of the tomb and brought him back to life, related what they had witnessed.
Therfor the puple bar witnessyng, that was with hym, whanne he clepide Lazarus fro the graue, and reiside hym fro deth.
18 This was also why the crowd came to meet Him, because they had heard of His having performed that miracle.
And therfor the puple cam, and mette with hym, for thei herden that he hadde don this signe.
19 The result was that the Pharisees said among themselves, "Observe how idle all your efforts are! The world is gone after him!"
Therfor the Farisees seiden to hem silf, Ye seen, that we profiten no thing; lo! al the world wente aftir hym.
20 Now some of those who used to come up to worship at the Festival were Greeks.
And there weren summe hethene men, of hem that hadden come vp to worschipe in the feeste dai.
21 They came to Philip, of Bethsaida in Galilee, with the request, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus."
And these camen to Filip, that was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and preieden hym, and seiden, Sire, we wolen se Jhesu.
22 Philip came and told Andrew: Andrew and Philip told Jesus.
Filip cometh, and seith to Andrew; eft Andrew and Filip seiden to Jhesu.
23 His answer was, "The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
And Jhesus answerde `to hem, and seide, The our cometh, that mannus sone be clarified.
24 In most solemn truth I tell you that unless the grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains what it was--a single grain; but that if it dies, it yields a rich harvest.
Treuli, treuli, Y seie to you, but a corn of whete falle in to the erthe, and be deed, it dwellith aloone; but if it be deed, it bryngith myche fruyt.
25 He who holds his life dear, is destroying it; and he who makes his life of no account in this world shall keep it to the Life of the Ages. (aiōnios g166)
He that loueth his lijf, schal leese it; and he that hatith his lijf in this world, kepith it in to euerlastynge lijf. (aiōnios g166)
26 If a man wishes to be my servant, let him follow me; and where I am, there too shall my servant be. If a man wishes to be my servant, the Father will honour him.
If ony man serue me, sue he me; and where Y am, there my mynystre schal be. If ony man serue me, my fadir schal worschipe hym.
27 Now is my soul full of trouble; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But for this purpose I have come to this hour.
Now my soule is troublid, and what schal Y seie? Fadir, saue me fro this our; but therfor Y cam in to this our;
28 Father, glorify Thy name." Thereupon there came a voice from the sky, "I have glorified it and will also glorify it again."
fadir, clarifie thi name. And a vois cam fro heuene, and seide, And Y haue clarified, and eft Y schal clarifie.
29 The crowd that stood by and heard it, said that there had been thunder. Others said, "An angel spoke to him."
Therfor the puple that stood, and herde, seide, that `thundur was maad; othere men seide, an aungel spak to hym.
30 "It is not for my sake," said Jesus, "that that voice came, but for your sakes.
Jhesus answerde, and seide, This vois cam not for me, but for you.
31 Now is a judgement of this world: now will the Prince of this world be driven out.
Now is the doom of the world, now the prince of this world schal be cast out.
32 And I-- if I am lifted up from the earth--will draw all men to me."
And if Y schal be enhaunsid fro the erthe, Y schal drawe alle thingis to my silf.
33 He said this to indicate the kind of death He would die.
And he seide this thing, signifiynge bi what deth he `was to die.
34 The crowd answered Him, "We have heard out of the Law that the Christ remains for ever. In what sense do you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is that Son of Man?" (aiōn g165)
And the puple answeride to hym, We han herd of the lawe, that Crist dwellith with outen ende; and hou seist thou, It bihoueth mannys sone to be arerid? Who is this mannus sone? (aiōn g165)
35 "Yet a little while," He replied, "the light is among you. Be faithful to the light that you have, for fear darkness should overtake you; for a man who walks in the dark does not know where he is going.
And thanne Jhesus seith to hem, Yit a litil liyt is in you; walke ye, the while ye han liyt, that derknessis catche you not; he that wandrith in derknessis, woot nere whidur he goith.
36 In the degree that you have light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of Light." Jesus said this, and went away and hid Himself from them.
While ye han liyt, bileue ye in liyt, that ye be the children of liyt. Jhesus spak these thingis, and wente, and hidde hym fro hem.
37 But though He had performed such great miracles in their presence, they did not believe in Him--
And whanne he hadde don so many myraclis bifor hem, thei bileueden not `in to hym;
38 in order that the words of Isaiah the Prophet might be fulfilled, "Lord, who has believed our preaching? And the arm of the Lord--to whom has it been unveiled?"
that the word of Ysaie, the prophete, schulde be fulfillid, which he seide, Lord, who bileuede to oure heryng, and to whom is the arm of the Lord schewid?
39 For this reason they were unable to believe--because Isaiah said again,
Therfor thei myyten not bileue, for eft Ysaye seide,
40 "He has blinded their eyes and made their minds callous, lest they should see with their eyes and perceive with their minds, and should turn, and I should heal them."
He hath blyndid her iyen, and he hath maad hard the herte of hem, that thei se not with iyen, and vndurstonde with herte; and that thei be conuertid, and Y heele hem.
41 Isaiah uttered these words because he saw His glory; and he spoke of Him.
Ysaye seide these thingis, whanne he say the glorie of hym, and spak of hym.
42 Nevertheless even from among the Rulers many believed in Him. But because of the Pharisees they did not avow their belief, for fear they should be shut out from the synagogue.
Netheles `of the pryncis manye bileueden in hym, but for the Farisees thei knowlechiden not, that thei schulden not be put out of the synagoge;
43 For they loved the glory that comes from men rather than the glory that comes from God.
for thei loueden the glorie of men, more than the glorie of God.
44 But Jesus cried aloud, "He who believes in me, believes not so much in me, as in Him who sent me;
And Jhesus criede, and seide, He that bileueth in me, bileueth not in me, but in hym that sente me.
45 and he who sees me sees Him who sent me.
He that seeth me, seeth hym that sente me.
46 I have come like light into the world, in order that no one who believes in me may remain in the dark.
Y liyt cam in to the world, that ech that bileueth in me, dwelle not in derknessis.
47 And if any one hears my teachings and regards them not, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.
And if ony man herith my words, and kepith hem, Y deme hym not; for Y cam not, that Y deme the world, but that Y make the world saaf.
48 He who sets me at naught and does not receive my teachings is not left without a judge: the Message which I have spoken will judge him on the last day.
He that dispisith me, and takith not my wordis, hath hym that schal iuge hym; thilke word that Y haue spokun, schal deme hym in the last dai.
49 Because I have not spoken on my own authority; but the Father who sent me, Himself gave me a command what to say and in what words to speak.
For Y haue not spokun of my silf, but thilke fadir that sente me, yaf to me a maundement, what Y schal seie, and what Y schal speke.
