Jon 11
1 Nyi ako aminv Lajaras vnamgo, nw Betani lo doonvgo lvvma toku. Betani vnamsi bangguv hoka Meri okv ninyigv bormv Marta dooto.
At this time a man named Lazarus was sick. He lived in Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
2 So gv Meri angv si Jisunyi nampunv tvli lvpa lo piaknv okv um ninyigv dumpo dwmw lokv tipwnv angv; lvvmanv angv Lajaras ninyigv boru bv rito.
(Mary, whose brother Lazarus was sick, was to anoint the Lord with perfume and wipe His feet with her hair.)
3 Anyibormv nyingv Jisunyi gaamgo milwk toku, “Ahtu, no gv ayanam ajin hv lvvma pvkv.”
So the sisters sent word to Jesus, “Lord, the one You love is sick.”
4 Vdwlo Jisu um tvvpa tokudw, nw minto, “So gv lvvma angv gv anyung ngv Lajarasnyi sinam gubv rimare; so rinam si Pwknvyarnvnyi kaimonam lvgabv, okv so si vbvrinam hv Pwknvyarnv gv Kuunyilo ngvka hartvnam paare.”
When Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”
5 Jisu Marta nyila ninyigv anyinyi okv Lajarasnyi paktoku.
Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
6 Vbvrijvka vdwlo hv Lajaras lvvmapvkv vnam yunying nga tvvtolaka ninyigv dooku hoka hv alu lonyi godv doodv toku.
So on hearing that Lazarus was sick, He stayed where He was for two days,
7 Vbvrikunamv nw ninyigv lvbwlaksu vdwa minto, “Klai ngonu Judia bv vngkur lakuju.”
and then He said to the disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.”
8 “Tamsarnv,” lvbwlaksu vdwv mirwkto, “Vjak mego ayungjvma nga nyi vdwv nam hoka vlwng ngv ordubv mvngnyato; no vngkur dukubv vla mvngdui?”
“Rabbi,” they replied, “the Jews just tried to stone You, and You are going back there?”
9 Jisu minto, “Aluv gunta vring gola anyigo doodu, dooma dunvre? Vkvlvgabv yvvdw alu pua lo vngkar dunv hv pokmap madunv, hv nyiamooku gv lounglo kaapa kunam lvgabv.
Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? If anyone walks in the daytime, he will not stumble, because he sees by the light of this world.
10 Vbvritola hv ayu rinyi vngkar bolo hv pokmapdo, ogulvgavbolo hv loung dooma.”
But if anyone walks at night, he will stumble, because he has no light.”
11 Jisu sum minto, okv vbvrikunamv mindvto, “Ngonu ajin Lajaras yupvku, vbvritola ngo vngla okv ninyi muu riku.”
After He had said this, He told them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there to wake him up.”
12 Lwbwlaksu vdwv mirwkto, “Ahtu, nw yupdung dvnvlo hv alvriku.”
His disciples replied, “Lord, if he is sleeping, he will get better.”
13 Jisu gv minam v manv Lajaras sipvku vla, vbvritola bunu hv yupching bv yuppv nvgo vla mvngto.
They thought that Jesus was talking about actual sleep, but He was speaking about the death of Lazarus.
14 Vkvlvgabv Jisu bunua jvjvbv mintam jitoku, “Lajaras siroku,
So Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead,
15 vbvritola nonugv lvgabv ngo mvngpudo ngo ninyia lvkobv dooma toku, vkvlvga nonu ho mvngjwng dukubv. Klvi hv gvlo vnglaju.”
and for your sake I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.”
16 Tomas (Bvngpiam vla minam) ninyigv ajin vdwa minto, “Klvi ngonu mvnwngngv Tamsarbonyi lvkobv vngming gvlaju, ngonuka ninyia lvkobv sikulo simi gvnam lvgabv!”
Then Thomas called Didymus said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, so that we may die with Him.”
17 Vdwlo Jisu vngchi tokudw, Lajarasnyi nyibung riku namv alu loopi dukubv hv paatoku.
When Jesus arrived, He found that Lazarus had already spent four days in the tomb.
18 Betani ngv Jerusalem lokv lvtw aom gubv rito,
Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, a little less than two miles away,
19 okv Judia gv nyi achialvgo Meri okv Marta bunyigv boru sikunam lvgalo mvngdwk mabvkv vla mimbv okv kaalwkbv aanyatoku.
and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them in the loss of their brother.
20 Jisu aariku vla vdwlo Marta tvvpa tokudw, nw kaarwk sidubv vnglintoku, vbvritola Meri naam lo dootoku.
So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet Him; but Mary stayed at home.
21 Marta Jisunyi mintoku, “Ahtu, no so doonv guilo ngoogv boruv sima dvnvpv!
Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.
22 Vbvritola ngo chindu vjakka no ninyia ogugo koodudw Pwknvyarnv nam jire.”
But even now I know that God will give You whatever You ask of Him.”
23 Jisu ninyia mintam toku, “No gv boruv turkur reku.”
“Your brother will rise again,” Jesus told her.
24 Marta mirwksito, “Ngo chindu, hv ataranya alulo turkur reku.”
Martha replied, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
25 Jisu ninyia minto, “Turkurkunam vla singnam v ngo. Yvvdw nga mvngjwng dunv hv turre, hv sikujeka;
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me will live, even though he dies.
26 okv yvvdw singdunv okv ngam mvngjwng dunv hv vdwloka simare. No sum mvngjwng dunvre?” (aiōn g165)
And everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this?” (aiōn g165)
27 Hv mirwkto, “Vkv, Ahtu! ngo mvngjwng dunv no Kristo, Pwknvyarnv gv Kuunyilo, yvvdw nyiamooku so aajikunv ngv.”
“Yes, Lord,” she answered, “I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.”
28 Marta sum minro kochingbv nw vngkur toku, okv ninyigv anyi Merinyi minsila minjito. “Tamsarbo si doodu,” hv anyia minjitoku, “okv nam tvvkadu.”
After Martha had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside to tell her, “The Teacher is here and is asking for you.”
29 Vdwlo Meri sum tvvpa tokudw, hv gudung toku okv ninyia kaarwk sudubv baapubv vnglintoku.
And when Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to Him.
30 Jisu vjaklodvbv nampumlo aachi madvto, vbvritola Marta gv ninyia kaarwk suku mookulo doobwngto.
Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met Him.
31 Nyi vdwv naam lo Merinyi lvkobv doonv vdwv ninyia mvngdwk mabvkv vnyato, ninyia vngming gvnyato, vdwlo bunu ninyia baapubv gudungdanv agumbv vnglin nama kaato kudw, bunu ninyia nyibung lo kapdubv vngji nvgo vla mvngnyato.
When the Jews who were in the house consoling Mary saw how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there.
32 Jisu ogolo doopvdw hoka Meri vngchi toku, okv hv baapubv ninyia kaapa danam gula, hv Jisu gv lvpa lo gipv toku. “Ahtu,” hv minto, “No so doonv guilo, ngoogv boruv sima dvnvpv!”
When Mary came to Jesus and saw Him, she fell at His feet and said, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.”
33 Jisu ninyia kapdubv kaatoku, okv ninyia lvkobv rinv vdwvka oguaingbv kapdudw umka kaatoku; vbvrinam hv ninyigv haapok ka mvsit la, okv achialvbv mvngdwk motoku.
When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come with her also weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.
34 Hv bunua tvvkato, “Nonu ninyia ogolo nyibung riipvnv?” Bunu mirwkto, “Ahtu, Aala okv kaatoka.”
“Where have you put him?” He asked. “Come and see, Lord,” they answered.
35 Jisu kapto.
Jesus wept.
36 Nyi vdwv minto, “Kaatoka, ninyia achialvbv pakdu!”
Then the Jews said, “See how He loved him!”
37 Vbvritola bunu megonv minto, “Hv nyikching nvnga kaapa dukubv mvtoku, nw mvmma pvnvre? Nw Lajarasnyi sima dubv mvnyu mapv nvdw?”
But some of them asked, “Could not this man who opened the eyes of the blind also have kept Lazarus from dying?”
38 Lvkodv mvngdwk hilok laikula dooku mabvku, Jisu nyibung lo vngtoku hv lvngpwk bv rito agi aagia nga vlwng ajap nvgo jootum kunam go.
Jesus, once again deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance.
39 Jisu minto, “Vlwng nga dvato!” Marta, sinv nyi angv gv anyiv, mirwkto, “Ahtu, hoka naya amokrikv. Ninyia nyibung riikunamv alu loopi roku!”
“Take away the stone,” Jesus said. “Lord, by now he stinks,” said Martha, the sister of the dead man. “It has already been four days.”
40 Jisu ninyia minto, “Ngo nam mimapvnvre, no mvngjwng bolo Pwknvyarnv gv jwkrw nga kaapare vla?”
Jesus replied, “Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?”
41 Bunu vlwng nga dva toku. Jisu aobv kaadungto okv minto, “Abu, ngo nam umbonyikv, no nga tvvyadu.
So they took away the stone. Then Jesus lifted His eyes upward and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.
42 Ngo chindu no lokia ngam tvvyadu, vbvritola ngo sung mindu so nyi vdw so gv lvgabv, ogulvgavbolo so nyi vdw si no ngam vngmupvnv vla mvngjwng dukubv.”
I knew that You always hear Me, but I say this for the benefit of the people standing here, so they may believe that You sent Me.”
43 Hv vbv minro kochingbv, hv gamtv rungbv gokto, “Lajaras, lintokuka!”
After Jesus had said this, He called out in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”
44 Hv nyibung lokv lintoku, ninyigv lvpa laak ha vji puching dvdubv, okv nyukmu haka puching dvdubv. Jisu bunua minto, “Ninyia paksok la, okv vngmu tokuka.”
The man who had been dead came out with his hands and feet bound in strips of linen, and his face wrapped in a cloth. “Unwrap him and let him go,” Jesus told them.
45 Nyi achialvgo Merinyi kaalwkla aanv vdwv Jisu ogugo ripvkudw kaanya toku okv bunu ninyia mvngjwng nyatoku.
Therefore many of the Jews who had come to Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, believed in Him.
46 Vbvritola megonv bunu Parisis vdwgvlo vngkur toku okv Jisu ogugo ripvkudw minpa toku.
But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.
47 Vkvlvgabv Parisis vdwv, okv nyibu butvnv vdwv Kvba vdwa lvkobv kaarwksuto okv minto, “Ngonu oguridukubv? Kaatokuka so nyi gv lamrwpanam kaatamnam ma!
Then the chief priests and Pharisees convened the Sanhedrin and said, “What are we to do? This man is performing many signs.
48 Ngonu so nyi sum svbv ribwng mobolo, nyichar mvnwngngv ninyia mvngjwng riku, okv Roman nyi kainv vdwv tvvchar kayarre okv ngonugv Pwknvyarnvnaam ha mvyakmvchak riku okv ngonugv haalung ngakka!”
If we let Him go on like this, everyone will believe in Him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”
49 Bunugv lokv akonv, aminv Kayapas, yvvdw ho anying hoka Nyibu Butvyachok nvbv rinv angv, minto, “Nonu ogu pvcha pvnvri!
But one of them, named Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all!
50 Nonu mvngdi malare, haalung gv yaktv svnga, nonugv lvgabv alvyanvngv, nyi akin gonv nyi vdwgv lvgabv siria monam si?”
You do not realize that it is better for you that one man die for the people than that the whole nation perish.”
51 Minjvjvbolo hv sung atuv mvngsula mimato; vmabvya hv ho anying gv Nyibu Butvyachok nvbv rinam lvgabv, hv nyikrw kaala Jisu Jius nyi vdwgv lvgabv siria tvdu vla,
Caiaphas did not say this on his own. Instead, as high priest that year, he was prophesying that Jesus would die for the nation,
52 okv bunua mvngchikma, vbvritola Pwknvyarnvnyi mooku mvnwnglo doosik kunv vdwa akin gubvku naadumsidu kubvka.
and not only for the nation, but also for the scattered children of God, to gather them together into one.
53 Ho alu lokv Jius nyi kainv vdwv Jisunyi mvkidubv rungtoku.
So from that day on they plotted to kill Him.
54 Vkvlvgabv Jisu Judia mookulo nyi kaagialo vngkar matoku, vbvritola vngyu toku okv chukrimooku nvchi mooku gulo vngtoku, Epraim vnam banggu gulo hoka ninyigv lvbwlaksu vdwa lvkobv doolwk toku.
As a result, Jesus no longer went about publicly among the Jews, but He withdrew to a town called Ephraim in an area near the wilderness. And He stayed there with the disciples.
55 Vngbokunam Pumja dvdw ngv nvchi toku, nyi achialv go mooku lokv pumja rima dwbv ridar kakdar koodubv vla Jerusalem lo aanya toku.
Now the Jewish Passover was near, and many people went up from the country to Jerusalem to purify themselves before the Passover.
56 Bunu Jisunyi kaakarnyato, okv bunu Pwknvyarnvnaam lo vngkum nyatoku, bunu akonv ako nvnga tvvka minsuto, “No ogubv mvngdu? Hv pumja so aarung mare, ma aaridw?”
They kept looking for Jesus and asking one another as they stood in the temple courts, “What do you think? Will He come to the feast at all?”
57 Nyibu butvnv vdwv okv Parisis vdwv orto jipvpv yvvdw Jisu ogolo doopvdw um chinv ngv, hv minpa laka, vkvlvgavbolo bunu ninyia naatung nyudukubv.
But the chief priests and Pharisees had given orders that anyone who knew where He was must report it, so that they could arrest Him.
