John 11
1 Sie mukul pangpang Lazarus su muta Bethany, el masak. Bethany pa siti srisrik se ma Mary ac Martha, tamtael lal, muta we.
Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus [Help of God] from Bethany [House of affliction], of the village of Mary [Rebellion] and her sister, Martha [Lady mistress, Strong bitterness].
2 (Mary se inge pa tuh ukuiya ono se nu ke nien Leum ac sang aunsifal eela. Lazarus se ma mas inge ma wial.)
It was that Mary [Rebellion] who had anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother, Lazarus [Help of God], was sick.
3 Tamtael se inge supwala kas nu sin Jesus ac fahk, “Leum, mwet kawuk saok lom el mas.”
The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, “Lord, behold, he for whom you phileo ·affectionately love, have high regard for· is sick.”
4 Ke Jesus el lohngak el fahk, “Mas se inge tia ma nu ke misa, a ma in nawela God, oayapa Wen nutin God fah eis wolana kac.”
But when Yeshua [Salvation] heard it, he said, “This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that God’s Son may be glorified by it.”
5 Jesus el lungse Martha ac Mary, su ma wial, ac Lazarus.
Now Yeshua [Salvation] had agapao ·total devotion love· towards Martha [Lady mistress, Strong bitterness], and her sister, and Lazarus [Help of God].
6 Tusruktu ke el lohng lah Lazarus el mas, el mutana yen el muta we ke len luo pac.
When therefore he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days in the place where he was.
7 Toko el fahk nu sin mwet tumal lutlut, “Kut folokla nu Judea.”
Then after this he said to the disciples, “Let’s go into Judea [Praise] again.”
8 A mwet tumal lutlut elos fahk, “Mwet Luti, in pacl na fototo se somla, mwet in acn we tuh srike in tungal kom. Ya kom nunku kom in folok nu we?”
The disciples told him, “Rabbi ·Teacher·, the Jews [Praisers] were just trying to stone you, and are you going there again?”
9 Jesus el topuk, “Ya tia oasr ao singoul luo ke len se? Ke ma inge kutena mwet su fahsr ke len el ac tia tukulkul, mweyen el liye kalem lun faclu.
Yeshua [Salvation] answered, “Are not there twelve hours of daylight? If a man walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
10 A el fin fahsr ke fong el tukulkul, mweyen wangin kalem yorol.”
But if a man walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”
11 Jesus el fahk ma inge na el sifil fahk, “Lazarus, kawuk lasr, el motulla, tusruktu nga ac som okasulak.”
He said these things, and after that, he said to them, “Our friend, Lazarus [Help of God], has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep.”
12 Mwet tumal lutlut elos topuk ac fahk, “Leum, el fin motul, el ac kwela.”
The disciples therefore said, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.”
13 Kalmen ma Jesus el fahk uh pa Lazarus el misa, a elos nunku mu el kaskas ke motul in mongla.
Now Yeshua [Salvation] had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep.
14 Ke ma inge Jesus el fahkang nu selos ke kas na kalem, “Lazarus el misa,
So Yeshua [Salvation] said to them plainly then, “Lazarus [Help of God] is dead.
15 tusruktu ke sripowos nga wokin lah nga wangin yorol, tuh kowos fah lulalfongi. Kut som nu yorol.”
I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may trust. Nevertheless, let’s go to him.”
16 Thomas (su pangpang Fak) el fahk nu sin mwet lutlut wial, “Fahsru, kut nukewa welul som, tuh kut in wi pacna Mwet Luti misa!”
Thomas [Seeker of truth] therefore, who is called Didymus [Twin] in Greek, said to his fellow disciples, “Let’s go also, that we may die with him.”
17 Ke Jesus el sun acn we, el lohngak lah Lazarus el pukpuki len akosr lac tari.
So when Yeshua [Salvation] came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already.
18 Tia sun mael luo Bethany nu Jerusalem,
Now Bethany [House of affliction] was near Jerusalem [City of peace], about fifteen stadia away [2 mi; 2.8 km].
19 ac mwet puspis tuku liki acn Judea in akpwaryal Martha ac Mary ke misa lun mukul se wialtal inge.
Many of the Jews [Praisers] had joined the women around Martha [Lady mistress, Strong bitterness] and Mary [Rebellion], to console them concerning their brother.
20 Ke Martha el lohngak lah Jesus el tuku, el illa som in osun nu sel, a Mary el mutana in lohm ah.
Then when Martha [Lady mistress, Strong bitterness] heard that Yeshua [Salvation] was coming, she went and met him, but Mary [Rebellion] stayed in the house.
21 Martha el fahk nu sel Jesus, “Leum, kom funu oasr inge, mukul se wiuk inge lukun tia misa!
Therefore Martha [Lady mistress, Strong bitterness] said to Yeshua [Salvation], “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.
22 Tusruktu finne inge pacna, nga etu lah God El ac sot nu sum kutena ma kom siyuk sel.”
Even now I know that, whatever you ask of God, God will give you.”
23 Jesus el fahk nu sel, “Ma wiom el ac sifil moulyak.”
Yeshua [Salvation] said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”
24 Martha el topuk, “Nga etu lah el ac sifil moulyak ke len safla.”
Martha [Lady mistress, Strong bitterness] said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
25 Jesus el fahk nu sel, “Nga pa akmoulyauk mwet uh liki misa nu ke moul. Kutena mwet su lulalfongi in nga fah moul, el finne misa.
Yeshua [Salvation] said to her, “Ena Na [I AM (the Living God)] the resurrection and the life. He who trusts in me will still live, even if he dies.
26 Ac kutena mwet su moul ac lulalfongiyu fah tiana misa. Ya kom lulalfongi ma se inge?” (aiōn g165)
Whoever lives and trusts in me will never die. Do you trust this?” (aiōn g165)
27 Martha el topuk, “Aok, Leum! Nga lulalfongi lah kom pa Christ, Wen nutin God, el su God El wulela kac mu ac tuku nu faclu.”
She said to him, “Yes, Lord. I have come to trust that you are the Messiah [Anointed one], God’s Son, he who comes into the world.”
28 Tukun Martha el fahk ma inge, el folokla ac mahma nu sel Mary, tamtael lal, ac fahk, “Mwet Luti el oasr inge, ac el siyuk kom.”
When she had said this, she went away, and called Mary [Rebellion], her sister, secretly, saying, “The Rabbi ·Teacher· is here, and is calling you.”
29 Ke Mary el lohng, el tuyak ac sulaklak som in osun nu sel. (
When she heard this, she arose quickly, and went to him.
30 Jesus el soenna tuku nu yen mwet uh walil we, a el srakna oasr yen se Martha el sonol we ah.)
Now Yeshua [Salvation] had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha [Lady mistress, Strong bitterness] met him.
31 Mwet ma muta lohm ah yorol Mary in akpwaryal, ke elos liye lah el tuyak ac sulaklak tufoki som, elos ukwalla mweyen elos nunku mu el ac som in tung ke kulyuk ah.
Then the Jews [Praisers] who were with her in the house, and were consoling her, when they saw Mary [Rebellion], that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there.”
32 Mary el tuku nu yen Jesus el muta we, na ke el liyalak Jesus, el putati nu ke nial ac fahk, “Leum, kom funu muta inge, mukul se wiuk inge lukun tia misa!”
Therefore when Mary [Rebellion] came to where Yeshua [Salvation] was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.”
33 Jesus el liye lah el tung, oayapa mwet ma welul elos wi pac tung, na insial arulana asor ac el liksreni na oela.
When Yeshua [Salvation] therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews [Praisers] weeping who came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,
34 El siyuk selos, “Kowos piknilya oya?” Elos topuk, “Leum, fahsru liye.”
and said, “Where have you laid him?” They told him, “Lord, come and see.”
35 Jesus el tung.
Yeshua [Salvation] wept.
36 Ac mwet uh fahk, “Liye lupan nunak lal kacl!”
The Jews [Praisers] therefore said, “See how much phileo ·affectionate love, high regard· he had for him!”
37 A kutu selos fahk, “El tuh sang liyaten nu sin mwet kun sac, na efu ku elan kofla in oru tuh Lazarus elan tia misa?”
Some of them said, “Couldn’t this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?”
38 Jesus el srakna asor yohk, na el som nu ke kulyuk ah, sie luf oan pe eol ah ac eot se itukyang kosrala mutun luf sac.
Yeshua [Salvation] therefore, again groaning in himself, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
39 Jesus el fahk, “Eisla eot sacn!” Martha, su ma wien mas sac, el fahk, “Leum, ac arulana koluk fohlo, mweyen el pukpuki len akosr lac!”
Yeshua [Salvation] said, “Take away the stone.” Martha [Lady mistress, Strong bitterness], the sister of him who was dead, said to him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.”
40 Jesus el fahk nu sel, “Mea, nga tia fahk nu sum tari lah kom fin lulalfongi kom ac liye wolana lun God?”
Yeshua [Salvation] said to her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you trusted, you would see God’s glory?”
41 Elos eisla eot sac nu saya. Na Jesus el ngetak nu lucng ac fahk, “Papa, nga kulo nu sum tuh kom porongeyu.
So they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. Yeshua [Salvation] lifted up his eyes, and said, “Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, I thank you that you listened to me.
42 Nga etu lah kom porongeyu pacl nukewa, tusruktu nga fahk ma inge tuh mwet inge in lulalfongi lah kom supweyume.”
I know that you always listen to me, but because of the multitude that stands around I said this, that they may trust that you sent me.”
43 Tukun el fahk ma inge, el pang ke pusra lulap, “Lazarus, ilme!”
When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus [Help of God], come out!”
44 Na el ilme. Paol ac nial srakna pihpla ke nuknuk in misa, ac ipin nuknuk se pwelah mutal. Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Tulala nuknuk in misa lal lukel, ac lela elan som.”
He who was dead came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “Free him, and let him go.”
45 Mwet puspis sin mwet Jew ma tuku nu yorol Mary elos liye ma Jesus el oru, ac elos lulalfongi kacl.
Therefore many of the Jews [Praisers], who came to Mary [Rebellion] and saw what Yeshua [Salvation] did, trusted in him.
46 Tusruktu kutu selos folokla nu yurin mwet Pharisee ac fahkak nu selos ma Jesus el oru.
But some of them went away to the Pharisees [Separated], and told them the things which Yeshua [Salvation] had done.
47 Ke ma inge mwet tol fulat ac mwet Pharisee elos osun yurin Un Mwet Pwapa Fulat ac fahk, “Mea kut ac oru, ke arulana pus mwenmen ma mwet se inge orala?
The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees [Separated] gathered a council, and said, “What are we doing? For this man does many signs.
48 Kut fin fuhlela elan oru na lumah inge, mwet nukewa ac lulalfongel lac, ac mwet leum lun acn Rome elos ac sroang nu kac, ac kunausla Tempul lasr oayapa mutunfacl sesr.”
If we leave him alone like this, everyone will trust in him, and the Romans [People from Town of flowing waters] will come and take away both our place and our nation.”
49 Sie selos pangpang Caiaphas, su tuh Mwet Tol Fulat ke yac sac, el fahk, “Efu kowos ku lalfon fuk?
But a certain one of them, Caiaphas [Rock that hollows itself out], being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all,
50 Kowos tia akilen lah ac wo nu suwos tuh mwet se na in misa ke mwet uh, liki mutunfacl nufon se in kunausyukla?”
nor do you consider that it is advantageous for us that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish.”
51 Pwayeiya uh, Caiaphas el tia fahk ma inge ke nunak na lal, a ke sripen el pa Mwet Tol Fulat ke yac sac el fahk kas in palye kacl Jesus lah el ac misa ke sripen mwet Jew,
Now he didn’t say this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Yeshua [Salvation] would die for the nation,
52 ac tia kaclos mukena, a oayapa in eisani nu sie mwet nukewa lun God su fahsrelik nu yen nukewa uh.
and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.
53 Tukun len sac lac, mwet fulat lun mwet Jew elos suk na oreya in unilya Jesus.
So from that day forward they took counsel that they might put him to death.
54 Ke ma inge Jesus el tia sifil fahsr lemtulauk inmasrlon mwet Jew, a el som nu ke sie acn apkuran nu yen mwesis, nu ke sie siti srisrik pangpang Ephraim, ac el muta we yurin mwet tumal lutlut.
Yeshua [Salvation] therefore walked no more openly among the Jews [Praisers], but departed from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim [Fruit]. He stayed there with his disciples.
55 Inge apkuran me pacl in Kufwen Alukela, ac mwet puspis fahsryak liki acn selos nu Jerusalem in aknasnasyalosla fal nu ke oakwuk lun Ma Sap meet liki kufwa uh.
Now the Judean [Person from Praise] festival of Pesac ·Passover· was at hand, (the start of Nissan). Many went up from the country to Jerusalem [City of peace] before the Pesac ·Passover·, to purify themselves.
56 Elos sokol Jesus, ac ke elos tukeni in Tempul elos asiyuki sie sin sie, “Mea kowos nunku? El ac tuku nu ke kufwa uh ku tia?”
Then they sought for Yeshua [Salvation] and spoke one with another, as they stood in the temple, “What do you think— that he is not coming to the feast at all?”
57 Mwet tol fulat ac mwet Pharisee elos sapkin mu kutena mwet fin etu acn Jesus el oasr we, elan tuku akkalemye tuh elos in sruokilya.
Now the chief priests and the Pharisees [Separated] had commanded that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, that they might seize him.
