Now
a certain
man was sick ,
Lazarus
from
Bethany, of
the village of Mary and her sister ,
Martha.
At
this
time
a man named
Lazarus
was sick .
He
lived
in
Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
It
was
that
Mary who
had
anointed
the Lord with ointment,
and wiped
his feet with her hair ,
whose
brother,
Lazarus,
was
sick
.
(
Mary ,
whose
brother
Lazarus
was
sick,
was
to
anoint
the Lord with perfume
and wipe
His feet with her hair. )
The sisters therefore
sent to him,
saying
, "
Lord, behold,
he
for
whom
you have
great
affection
is sick. "
So
the sisters sent word
to Jesus
, “
Lord, the
one
You love
is sick. ”
But
when Jesus 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. "
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. ”
Now Jesus loved Martha ,
and her sister ,
and Lazarus.
Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
When
therefore
he
heard
that he
was sick, he stayed two
days
in
the
place
where he was .
So
on
hearing
that Lazarus
was sick, He stayed where He was for
two
days,
Then after
this
he said to the disciples, "Let's
go into
Judea again
. "
and
then He said to the disciples, “Let
us
go back
to
Judea. ”
The
disciples
told
him,
"
Rabbi, the Jews were
just trying
to stone you, and are
you going there again
? "
“
Rabbi, ”
they
replied,
“
the Jews just tried
to stone You, and You are
going back
there? ”
Jesus answered, "Aren't
there twelve hours of daylight? If a
man
walks in the day
, he doesn't
stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
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.
But if a
man
walks in
the
night, he stumbles
, because the
light isn't
in
him
. "
But if anyone
walks at
night, he will
stumble
, because he
has
no
light. ”
He said these
things,
and
after
that
, he said
to
them, "
Our friend ,
Lazarus ,
has fallen asleep, but I am going so
that
I
may
awake
him out
of
sleep
. "
After
He had
said this
, He told
them, “
Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there
to
wake
him up
. ”
The
disciples therefore
said
, "
Lord, if he has
fallen
asleep
, he will recover
. "
His
disciples replied
, “
Lord, if he is
sleeping
, he will get
better
. ”
Now
Jesus
had
spoken
of
his
death,
but
they thought that he spoke
of taking
rest
in
sleep
.
They thought that Jesus
was
talking
about
actual
sleep,
but
He was
speaking
about
the
death
of Lazarus
.
So Jesus said
to
them plainly then
, "
Lazarus is dead .
So Jesus told
them plainly, “
Lazarus is dead ,
I am glad for
your
sakes
that
I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless,
let's
go to him. "
and
for
your
sake
I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But
let
us
go to him. ”
Thomas therefore,
who
is
called Didymus ,
said to his fellow disciples, "Let's
go
also, that we may die with him. "
Then
Thomas called Didymus said to his fellow disciples, “Let
us
also go
, so
that we may die with Him. ”
So
when Jesus came
, he found that he
had been
in the tomb four
days
already
.
When Jesus arrived
, He found that Lazarus
had already
spent
four
days
in the tomb.
Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about
fifteen
stadia
away .
Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, a
little
less
than
two
miles
away ,
Many of the Jews had joined
the
women
around
Martha and Mary ,
to console them concerning
their brother.
and
many of the Jews had come
to
Martha and Mary to console them in
the
loss
of
their brother.
Then
when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and
met
him ,
but Mary stayed in
the
house
.
So
when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out
to
meet
Him ;
but Mary stayed at
home
.
Therefore
Martha said to Jesus, "
Lord, if you would
have
been here, my brother wouldn't
have died.
Martha said to Jesus, “
Lord, if You had
been here, my brother would
not
have died.
Even now I know that ,
whatever
you
ask
of
God ,
God
will give you. "
But
even now I know that God will give You whatever
You
ask
of
Him
. ”
Jesus
said
to
her,
"
Your brother will rise again. "
“
Your brother will rise again ,”
Jesus
told
her
.
Martha said
to
him
, "
I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day. "
Martha replied
, “
I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day. ”
Jesus said to her, "
I am the resurrection and the life. He
who
believes in me, though he die,
yet
will
he
live
.
Jesus said to her, “
I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever
believes in Me will
live
, even
though he dies
.
Whoever
lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this? "
And
everyone
who
lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this? ”
She
said
to
him,
"
Yes, Lord .
I have
come
to
believe that you are the Christ, God's
Son, he
who comes
into the world. "
“
Yes, Lord ,”
she
answered,
“
I believe that You are the Christ, the
Son of
God
, who was
to
come
into the world. ”
When
she
had said this, she went away,
and called Mary,
her sister ,
secretly,
saying
, "
The Teacher is here ,
and is calling
you. "
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. ”
When she
heard this, she arose
quickly ,
and went to him.
And
when Mary
heard this, she got
up
quickly and went to Him.
Now Jesus had not yet come
into
the village, but was in
the place where Martha met him.
Now Jesus had not yet entered
the village, but was still
at
the place where Martha had
met Him.
Then
the Jews who were with
her
in the house ,
and
were
consoling her,
when
they
saw
Mary ,
that
she rose
up quickly
and went out, followed her, saying,
"
She is
going to the tomb to weep
there. "
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.
Therefore
when Mary came to where
Jesus 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. "
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. ”
When Jesus therefore
saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping
who came
with her, he groaned
in the
spirit ,
and was
troubled ,
When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had
come
with her also
weeping
, He was
deeply
moved
in spirit and troubled .
and
said,
"
Where have you laid
him? "
They
told
him,
"Lord,
come and see. "
“
Where have you put
him? ”
He
asked.
“
Come and see ,
Lord,”
they
answered
.
Jesus wept.
Jesus wept.
The Jews therefore
said, "
See how much
affection
he had
for
him! "
Then
the Jews said, “
See how He loved
him! ”
Some of them said
, "Couldn't
this man ,
who opened the eyes of him
who
was
blind ,
have
also kept this
man
from dying? "
But
some of them asked
, “Could
not
this man who opened the eyes of the
blind also have
kept Lazarus
from dying? ”
Jesus therefore
, again groaning
in
himself
, came to the tomb. Now
it was a cave ,
and
a stone lay
against
it
.
Jesus, once
again deeply
moved
, came to the tomb. It was a cave with
a stone laid
across
the
entrance
.
Jesus
said,
"
Take away the stone. "
Martha, 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. "
“
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. ”
Jesus said
to
her
, "Didn't
I tell you that if you believed, you would see God's
glory? "
Jesus replied
, “Did
I not
tell you that if you believed, you would see the
glory of
God
? ”
So they took away the stone from
the
place
where
the
dead
man
was
lying
. Jesus lifted up
his eyes ,
and said, "
Father, I thank you that you listened
to
me.
So they took away the stone. Then
Jesus lifted His eyes upward
and said, “
Father, I thank You that You have
heard
Me.
I know
that you always listen
to
me, but because
of
the
multitude
that
stands
around
I said
this, that
they may believe that you sent me. "
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. ”
When
he
had said this, he cried
with
a loud voice, "
Lazarus, come out! "
After
Jesus
had said this, He called
out
in
a loud voice, “
Lazarus, come out! ”
He
who was
dead came out ,
bound
hand
and
foot
with wrappings
, and his face was
wrapped around
with
a cloth. Jesus
said
to
them,
"Free
him ,
and let him go. "
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
.
Therefore many of the Jews ,
who came
to Mary and saw
what Jesus did, believed in him.
Therefore many of the Jews who had
come
to Mary ,
and had
seen
what Jesus did, believed in Him.
But some of them went away
to the Pharisees ,
and told them the
things
which
Jesus had done.
But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what
Jesus had done.
The chief priests therefore
and the
Pharisees gathered
a
council,
and said, "
What are we doing
? For
this man does
many signs.
Then
the chief priests and Pharisees convened
the
Sanhedrin
and said, “
What are we to
do
? This man is
performing
many signs.
If we leave
him alone
like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation. "
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. ”
But a
certain
one of them, Caiaphas, being
high priest that year, said to them, "
You know nothing at all ,
But one of them, named
Caiaphas, who
was
high priest that year, said to them, “
You know nothing at all !
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. "
You do
not
realize
that it is better
for you
that one man die for the people than
that the whole nation perish. ”
Now
he
didn't
say this of
himself
, but
being
high priest that year, he prophesied
that Jesus would die for the nation,
Caiaphas
did
not
say this on
his
own.
Instead
, as
high priest that year, he was
prophesying
that Jesus would die for the nation,
and not for the nation only
, but that
he
might
also gather
together
into
one
the children of God who
are
scattered
abroad
.
and not only
for the nation, but also for
the scattered
children of God ,
to
gather
them
together
into
one
.
So from that day forward
they
took
counsel
that
they might
put
him
to death
.
So from that day on
they plotted
to kill
Him
.
Jesus therefore
walked
no more
openly
among the Jews, but departed
from
there
into
the
country
near
the
wilderness,
to a city
called Ephraim. He stayed there with his
disciples.
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.
Now the Passover of
the
Jews
was at
hand.
Many went up from the country to Jerusalem before
the
Passover,
to purify themselves.
Now the Jewish
Passover was near,
and
many people
went up from the country to Jerusalem to purify themselves before
the
Passover
.
Then
they sought
for Jesus and spoke
one with
another ,
as they stood in the temple, "
What do you think --that
he isn't
coming
to the feast at all? "
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? ”
Now
the chief priests and the
Pharisees had commanded
that if
anyone knew where he was ,
he
should
report it, that they might
seize
him.
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.
