< John 11 >

1 Ara ọkùnrin kan kò sì dá, Lasaru, ará Betani, tí í ṣe ìlú Maria àti Marta arábìnrin rẹ̀.
Was now a certain [man] ailing, Lazarus of Bethany of the village of Mary and Martha the sister of her;
2 Maria náà ni ẹni tí ó fi òróró ìkunra kun Olúwa, tí ó sì fi irun orí rẹ̀ nù ún, arákùnrin rẹ̀ ni Lasaru í ṣe, ara ẹni tí kò dá.
Was now Mary the [one] having anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and having wiped the feet of Him with the hair of her, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
3 Nítorí náà, àwọn arábìnrin rẹ̀ ránṣẹ́ sí i, wí pé, “Olúwa, wò ó, ara ẹni tí ìwọ fẹ́ràn kò dá.”
Sent therefore the sisters to Him saying; Lord, behold [he] whom You love was being sick.
4 Nígbà tí Jesu sì gbọ́, ó wí pé, “Àìsàn yìí kì í ṣe sí ikú, ṣùgbọ́n fún ògo Ọlọ́run, kí a lè yin Ọmọ Ọlọ́run lógo nípasẹ̀ rẹ̀.”
Having heard then Jesus said; This sickness not is unto death but for the glory of God that may be glorified the Son of God through it.
5 Jesu sì fẹ́ràn Marta, àti arábìnrin rẹ̀ àti Lasaru.
was loving now Jesus Martha and the sister of her and Lazarus.
6 Nítorí náà, nígbà tí ó ti gbọ́ pé, ara rẹ̀ kò dá, ó gbé ọjọ́ méjì sí i níbìkan náà tí ó gbé wà.
When therefore He heard that he is sick, then indeed He remained in which He was [the] place two days.
7 Ǹjẹ́ lẹ́yìn èyí ni ó wí fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a tún padà lọ sí Judea.”
Then after this He says to the disciples; Let us go into Judea again.
8 Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ sì wí fún un pé, “Rabbi, ní àìpẹ́ yìí ni àwọn Júù ń wá ọ̀nà láti sọ ọ́ ní òkúta; ìwọ sì tún padà lọ síbẹ̀?”
Say to Him the disciples; Rabbi, just now were seeking You to stone the Jews, and again You are going there?
9 Jesu dáhùn pé, “Wákàtí méjìlá kọ́ ni ó bẹ nínú ọ̀sán kan bí? Bí ẹnìkan bá rìn ní ọ̀sán, kì yóò kọsẹ̀, nítorí tí ó rí ìmọ́lẹ̀ ayé yìí.
Answered (*k*) Jesus; Surely twelve hours are there in the day? If anyone shall walk in the day, not he stumbles, because the light of the world this he sees.
10 Ṣùgbọ́n bí ẹnìkan bá rìn ní òru, yóò kọsẹ̀, nítorí tí kò sí ìmọ́lẹ̀ nínú rẹ̀.”
if however anyone shall walk in the night, he stumbles, because the light not is in him.
11 Nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni ó sọ, lẹ́yìn èyí nì ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Lasaru ọ̀rẹ́ wa sùn; ṣùgbọ́n èmi ń lọ kí èmi kí ó lè jí i dìde nínú orun rẹ̀.”
These things He said and after this He says to them; Lazarus the friend of us has fallen asleep; but I go that I may awaken him.
12 Nítorí náà àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ wí fún un pé, “Olúwa, bí ó bá ṣe pé ó sùn, yóò sàn.”
Said therefore the disciples (to Him; *N(K)O*) Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will get well.
13 Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu ń sọ ti ikú rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n rò pé, ó ń sọ ti orun sísùn.
Had spoken however Jesus of the death of him; they however thought that of the rest of sleep He speaks.
14 Nígbà náà ni Jesu wí fún wọn gbangba pé, “Lasaru ti kú.
Then therefore said to them Jesus plainly; Lazarus has died.
15 Èmi sì yọ̀ nítorí yín, tí èmi kò sí níbẹ̀. Kí ẹ le gbàgbọ́; ṣùgbọ́n ẹ jẹ́ kí a lọ sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.”
And I rejoice for sake of you, in order that you may believe, that not I was there; But let us go to him.
16 Nítorí náà Tomasi, ẹni tí à ń pè ní Didimu, wí fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn ẹgbẹ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí àwa náà lọ, kí a lè bá a kú pẹ̀lú.”
Said therefore Thomas who is being named Didymus to the fellow disciples; Let us go also us that we may die with Him.
17 Nítorí náà nígbà tí Jesu dé, ó rí i pé a ti tẹ́ ẹ sínú ibojì ní ọjọ́ mẹ́rin ná,
Having come therefore Jesus found him four already days having been in the tomb.
18 ǹjẹ́ Betani súnmọ́ Jerusalẹmu tó ibùsọ̀ mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún.
Was now Bethany near Jerusalem about away stadia fifteen.
19 Ọ̀pọ̀ nínú àwọn Júù sì wá sọ́dọ̀ Marta àti Maria láti tù wọ́n nínú nítorí ti arákùnrin wọn.
(and *k*) Many (now *no*) of the Jews had come unto (*N(k)O*) (concerning *k*) Martha and Mary that they may console them concerning the brother (of them. *k*)
20 Nítorí náà, nígbà tí Marta gbọ́ pé Jesu ń bọ̀ wá, ó jáde lọ pàdé rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n Maria jókòó nínú ilé.
Therefore Martha, when she heard that (*k*) Jesus is coming, met with Him; Mary however in the house was sitting.
21 Nígbà náà, ni Marta wí fún Jesu pé, “Olúwa, ìbá ṣe pé ìwọ ti wà níhìn-ín, arákùnrin mi kì bá kú.
Said then Martha to Jesus; Lord, if You had been here, not then would (be dead *N(k)O*) the brother of mine.
22 Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí náà, mo mọ̀ pé, ohunkóhun tí ìwọ bá béèrè lọ́wọ́ Ọlọ́run, Ọlọ́run yóò fi fún ọ.”
Nevertheless even now I know that as much as maybe You may ask God will give You God.
23 Jesu wí fún un pé, “Arákùnrin rẹ yóò jíǹde.”
Says to her Jesus; Will rise again the brother of you.
24 Marta wí fún un pé, “Mo mọ̀ pé yóò jíǹde ní àjíǹde ìkẹyìn.”
Says to him (*no*) Martha; I know that he will rise again in the resurrection in the last day.
25 Jesu wí fún un pé, “Èmi ni àjíǹde àti ìyè, ẹni tí ó bá gbà mí gbọ́, bí ó tilẹ̀ kú, yóò yè.
Said to her Jesus; I myself am the resurrection and the life; the [one] believing in Me myself even if even if he shall die he will live,
26 Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó ń bẹ láààyè, tí ó sì gbà mí gbọ́, kì yóò kú láéláé ìwọ gbà èyí gbọ́?” (aiōn g165)
and everyone who is living and believing in Me myself certainly not he shall die to the age. Believe you this? (aiōn g165)
27 Ó wí fún un pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, Olúwa, èmi gbàgbọ́ pé, ìwọ ni Kristi náà Ọmọ Ọlọ́run, ẹni tí ń bọ̀ wá sí ayé.”
She says to Him; Yes Lord; I myself have believed that You yourself are the Christ the Son of God the [One] into the world coming.
28 Nígbà tí ó sì ti wí èyí tan, ó lọ, ó sì pe Maria arábìnrin rẹ̀ sẹ́yìn wí pé, “Olùkọ́ dé, ó sì ń pè ọ́.”
And (these things *N(k)O*) having said she went away and she called Mary the sister of her secretly having said; The Teacher is come and He calls you.
29 Nígbà tí ó gbọ́, ó dìde lọ́gán, ó sì wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.
She (then *no*) when she heard ([she] rose up *N(k)O*) quickly and (was coming *N(k)O*) to Him.
30 Jesu kò tí ì wọ ìlú, ṣùgbọ́n ó wà ní ibi kan náà tí Marta ti pàdé rẹ̀.
Not yet now had come Jesus into the village, but was (still *no*) in the place where met with Him Martha.
31 Nígbà tí àwọn Júù tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ nínú ilé, tí wọ́n ń tù ú nínú rí Maria tí ó dìde kánkán, tí ó sì jáde, wọ́n tẹ̀lé, wọ́n ṣe bí ó ń lọ sí ibojì láti sọkún níbẹ̀.
The then Jews who are being with her in the house and consoling her, having seen Mary that soon she rose up and went out, followed after her, (having supposed *N(K)O*) that she is going to the tomb that she may weep there.
32 Nígbà tí Maria sì dé ibi tí Jesu wà, tí ó sì rí i, ó wólẹ̀ lẹ́bàá ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀, ó wí fún un pé, “Olúwa, ìbá ṣe pé ìwọ ti wà níhìn-ín, arákùnrin mi kì bá kú.”
Therefore Mary when she came to where was (*k*) Jesus, having seen Him she fell of Him (at *N(k)O*) the feet saying to Him; Lord, if You had been here, not then would my have died brother.
33 Nígbà tí Jesu rí i, tí ó ń sọkún, àti àwọn Júù tí ó bá a wá ń sọkún pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ó kérora nínú ẹ̀mí, inú rẹ̀ sì bàjẹ́.
Jesus therefore when He saw her weeping and the having come with her Jews weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and troubled Himself
34 Ó sì wí pé, “Níbo ni ẹ̀yin gbé tẹ́ ẹ sí?” Wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Olúwa, wá wò ó.”
And He said; Where have you laid him? They say to Him; Lord, do come and do see.
35 Jesu sọkún.
Wept Jesus.
36 Nítorí náà àwọn Júù wí pé, “Sá wò ó bí ó ti fẹ́ràn rẹ̀ tó!”
Were saying therefore the Jews; Behold how He was loving him!
37 Àwọn kan nínú wọn sì wí pé, “Ọkùnrin yìí, ẹni tí ó la ojú afọ́jú, kò lè ṣe é kí ọkùnrin yìí má kú bí?”
Some however of them said; Surely was able this [man] who having opened the eyes of the blind to have caused that also this one not may have died?
38 Nígbà náà ni Jesu tún kérora nínú ara rẹ̀, ó wá sí ibojì, ó sì jẹ́ ihò, a sì gbé òkúta lé ẹnu rẹ̀.
Jesus therefore again being deeply moved in Himself He comes to the tomb; It was now a cave, and a stone was lying against it.
39 Jesu wí pé, “Ẹ gbé òkúta náà kúrò!” Marta, arábìnrin ẹni tí ó kú náà wí fún un pé, “Olúwa, ó ti ń rùn nísinsin yìí, nítorí pé ó di ọjọ́ kẹrin tí ó tí kú.”
Says Jesus; do take away the stone. Says to Him the sister of the [one] (having deceased *N(k)O*) Martha; Lord, already he stinks; four days for it is.
40 Jesu wí fún un pé, “Èmi kò ti wí fún ọ pé, bí ìwọ bá gbàgbọ́, ìwọ yóò rí ògo Ọlọ́run?”
Says to her Jesus; Surely I said to you that if you shall believe you will see the glory of God?
41 Nígbà náà ni wọ́n gbé òkúta náà kúrò (níbi tí a tẹ́ ẹ sí). Jesu sì gbé ojú rẹ̀ sókè, ó sì wí pé, “Baba, mo dúpẹ́ lọ́wọ́ rẹ nítorí tí ìwọ gbọ́ tèmi.
They took away therefore the stone (where was who having died laid. *K*) Now Jesus lifted [His] eyes upwards and said; Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.
42 Èmi sì ti mọ̀ pé, ìwọ a máa gbọ́ ti èmi nígbà gbogbo, ṣùgbọ́n nítorí ìjọ ènìyàn tí ó dúró yìí ni mo ṣe wí i, kí wọn ba à lè gbàgbọ́ pé ìwọ ni ó rán mi.”
I myself and knew that always Me You hear; but on account of the crowd which already standing around I said [it], that they may believe that You yourself Me sent.
43 Nígbà tí ó sì wí bẹ́ẹ̀ tan, ó kígbe lóhùn rara pé, “Lasaru, jáde wá.”
And these things having said in a voice loud He cried out; Lazarus, come forth.
44 Ẹni tí ó kú náà sì jáde wá, tí a fi aṣọ òkú dì tọwọ́ tẹsẹ̀ a sì fi gèlè dì í lójú. Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ tú u, ẹ sì jẹ́ kí ó máa lọ!”
(and *k*) Came forth the [one] having died bound the feet and the hands with linen strips, and the face of him in a headcloth had bound about. Says to them Jesus: do unbind him and do allow him to go.
45 Nítorí náà ni ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn Júù tí ó wá sọ́dọ̀ Maria, tí wọ́n rí ohun tí Jesu ṣe, ṣe gbà á gbọ́.
Many therefore of the Jews having come to Mary and having seen (what things *NK(o)*) He did (Jesus *k*) believed in Him.
46 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ẹlòmíràn nínú wọn tọ àwọn Farisi lọ, wọ́n sì sọ fún wọn ohun tí Jesu ṣe.
some however of them went to the Pharisees and told to them what did (*ko*) Jesus.
47 Nígbà náà ni àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn Farisi pe ìgbìmọ̀ jọ. Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Kín ni yóò jẹ àṣeyọrí wa? Nítorí ọkùnrin yìí ń ṣe ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ iṣẹ́ àmì.
Gathered therefore the chief priests and the Pharisees a council and they were saying; What are we to do? For this man many does signs!
48 Bí àwa bá fi í sílẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀, gbogbo ènìyàn ni yóò gbà á gbọ́, àwọn ará Romu yóò sì wá gba ilẹ̀ àti orílẹ̀-èdè wa pẹ̀lú.”
If we shall let him alone Him like this, all will believe in Him, and will come the Romans and will take away of us both the place and the nation.
49 Ṣùgbọ́n Kaiafa, ọ̀kan nínú wọn, ẹni tí í ṣe olórí àlùfáà ní ọdún náà, ó wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ̀yin kò mọ ohunkóhun rárá!
One however certain of them Caiaphas, high priest being on the year same, said to them; You yourselves not know no [thing],
50 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ kò sì ronú pé, ó ṣàǹfààní fún wa, kí ènìyàn kan kú fún àwọn ènìyàn kí gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè má ba à ṣègbé.”
nor (consider you *N(k)O*) that it is profitable (for you *N(K)O*) that one man may die for the people, and not all the nation may perish.
51 Kì í ṣe fún ara rẹ̀ ni ó sọ èyí ṣùgbọ́n bí ó ti jẹ́ olórí àlùfáà ní ọdún náà, ó sọtẹ́lẹ̀ pé, Jesu yóò kú fún orílẹ̀-èdè náà,
This now from himself not he said, but high priest being on the year that he prophesied that was about (*k*) Jesus to die for the nation,
52 kì sì í ṣe kìkì fún orílẹ̀-èdè náà nìkan, ṣùgbọ́n fún àwọn ọmọ Ọlọ́run tí ó fọ́nká kiri, kí ó le kó wọn papọ̀, kí ó sì sọ wọ́n di ọ̀kan.
and not for the nation only but that also the children of God those scattered He may gather together into one.
53 Nítorí náà, láti ọjọ́ náà lọ ni wọ́n ti jọ gbìmọ̀ pọ̀ láti pa á.
From that [very] therefore day (they plotted *N(k)O*) that they may kill Him.
54 Nítorí náà Jesu kò rìn ní gbangba láàrín àwọn Júù mọ́; ṣùgbọ́n ó ti ibẹ̀ lọ sí ìgbèríko kan tí ó súnmọ́ aginjù, sí ìlú ńlá kan tí a ń pè ní Efraimu, níbẹ̀ ni ó sì wà pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀.
(*no*) Therefore Jesus no longer no longer publicly was walking among the Jews, but went away from there into the region near the wilderness to Ephraim being named a city, And there And there (He stayed *N(k)O*) with the disciples (of him. *k*)
55 Àjọ ìrékọjá àwọn Júù sì súnmọ́ etílé, ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ láti ìgbèríko sì gòkè lọ sí Jerusalẹmu ṣáájú ìrékọjá, láti ya ara wọn sí mímọ́.
Was now near the Passover of the Jews, and went up many to Jerusalem out of the region before the Passover so that they may purify themselves.
56 Nígbà náà ni wọ́n ń wá Jesu, wọ́n sì ń bá ara wọn sọ̀, bí wọ́n ti dúró ní tẹmpili, wí pé, “Kín ni ẹyin ti rò ó sí pé kì yóò wá sí àjọ?”
They were seeking therefore Jesus and were saying among one another in the temple already standing; What does it seem to you, that certainly not He may come to the feast?
57 Ǹjẹ́ àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn Farisi ti pàṣẹ pé bí ẹnìkan bá mọ ibi tí ó gbé wà, kí ó fi í hàn, kí wọn ba à lè mú un.
Had given now (also *k*) the chief priests and the Pharisees (commands *N(K)O*) that if anyone shall know where He is he shall show [it], so that they may seize Him.
