John 11
1 Now a certain man named Lazarus was ill; he was of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
Lazaru ak mingnaak thlang pynoet taw tlo hy. Anih taw Meri ingkaw a naa Martha a awmnaak Bethani khaw awhkaw thlang na awm hy.
2 (The Mary whose brother Lazarus was ill, was the Mary who put perfumed oil on the Lord and made his feet dry with her hair.)
Vawhkaw Meri vetaw ak tlo Lazaru a nanu, bawktui ing Bawipa ce syp nawh a Lusam ing a khaw ak thut peekkung ce ni.
3 So the sisters sent to him, saying, Lord, your dear friend is ill.
Cedawngawh cekqawi cingna ing Jesu ce awi cah hy nih, “Bawipa, nang ing na lungnaak thlang ce tlo hy,” tina hy nih.
4 When this came to his ears, Jesus said, The end of this disease is not death, but the glory of God, so that the Son of God may have glory because of it.
Ce ak awi ce Jesu ing ang zaak awh, “Vawhkaw tlawhnaak ve thihnaak hly kawi am ni. Ve a tlohnaak ak caming Khawsa Capa taw kyihcahna awm kaw,” tina qawi hy.
5 Now Jesus had love in his heart for Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
Jesu ing Martha cingna ingkaw a napa ce lungna hy.
6 So when the news came to him that Lazarus was ill, he did not go from the place where he was for two days.
Cehlai Lazaru ce tlo hy ti ang zaak awh, ce a hun awh khaw hih voei awmtaak hun hy.
7 Then after that time he said to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.
Cekcoengawh a hubatkhqi venawh, “Jerusalem na cet tlaih hlah u sih nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
8 The disciples said to him, Master, the Jews were attempting only the other day to have you stoned, and are you going back there again?
Cekkhqi ing, “Ikawmyihna cawngpyikung, tihhin ca awh ni Judahkhqi ing lung ing khawng aham ami ni teng ka ti, ceh ham nang cai bai nawh nu?” tina uhy.
9 Then Jesus said in answer, Are there not twelve hours in the day? A man may go about in the day without falling, because he sees the light of this world.
Jesu ing, “Khawnghi hypoet awh khawnoek pahqa hlaihih awm hy ka ti my? Ve khawmdek vang na ce awm nawh khaw a huh thai dawngawh, khawdai awh ak cet thlang taw am bah kaw.
10 But if a man goes about in the night, he may have a fall because the light is not in him.
Khaw amang dang dawngawh, khawmthan awh ni thlang ang bah hy,” tinak khqi hy.
11 These things said he: and after that he said to them, Lazarus our friend is at rest; but I go so that I may make him come out of his sleep.
Ve ak awi ak kqawn boeih coengawh cekkhqi venawh, “Ni pyi Lazaru taw ip hawh hy; cehlai cet nyngsaw thawh tlaih kawng nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
12 Then his disciples said to him, Lord, if he is resting he will get well.
A hubatkhqi ing, “Bawipa, anih ce a ih awhtaw leek lawt bit kaw,” tina uhy.
13 Jesus, however, was talking of his death: but they had the idea that he was talking about taking rest in sleep.
Jesu ing a thihnaak akawng ni ak kqawn hlai hy, a hubatkhqi ing taw ih mailai ni ak kqawn namih hy, tina poek uhy.
14 Then Jesus said to them clearly, Lazarus is dead.
Cedawngawh cekkhqi venawh ak zoei cana kqawn pek khqi tlaih hy, “Lazaru taw thi hawh hy.
15 And because of you I am glad I was not there, so that you may have faith; but let us go to him.
Cawh am ka awm nangmih aham zeel nyng, cawh ni nangmih ing namik cangnaak hly,” tinak khqi hy.
16 Then Thomas, who was named Didymus, said to the other disciples, Let us go so that we may be with him in death.
Cawh Thomas ing hubat ak changkhqi venawh, “Anih ing thih haih aham, ningnih awm cet lawt u sih cet uh,” tinak khqi hy.
17 Now when Jesus came, he made the discovery that Lazarus had been put into the earth four days before.
Ami pha awhtaw, Lazaru ce phyi khuiawh khaw phlinyn awm hawh hy, tice Jesu ing sim hy.
18 Now Bethany was near to Jerusalem, about two miles away;
Bethani khaw taw Jerusalem khaw awhkawng meng hih am hla hy.
19 And a number of Jews had come to Martha and Mary to give them comfort about their brother.
A napa a thih dawngawh Meri ingkaw Martha ce hloep aham thlang khawzah law uhy.
20 When Martha had the news that Jesus was on the way, she went out to him, but Mary did not go from the house.
Jesu law hy tice Martha ing ang zaak awh, ak do na ce cet hy, Meri taw im awh awm hy.
21 Then Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if you had been here my brother would not be dead.
Martha ing Jesu a venawh, “Bawipa, nang mah na awm mantaw, ka napa am thi voei.
22 But I am certain that, even now, whatever request you make to God, God will give it to you.
Cehlai tuh awm Khawsa avenawh na thoeh a saqui ce ni pe kaw, tice sim nyng,” tina hy.
23 Jesus said to her, Your brother will come to life again.
Jesu ing a venawh, “Na napa ce tho tlaih kaw,” tina hy.
24 Martha said to him, I am certain that he will come to life again when all come back from the dead at the last day.
Martha ing, khawnghi dyt nawh thawh tlaihnaak tym a pha awhtaw, tho tlaih kaw, tice sim nyng,” tina hy.
25 Jesus said to her, I am myself that day and that life; he who has faith in me will have life even if he is dead;
Jesu ing a venawh, “Kai taw thawhtlaihnaak ingkaw hqingnaak na awm nyng. Kai anik cangnaak thlang taw thi seiawm hqing kaw.
26 And no one who is living and has faith in me will ever see death. Is this your faith? (aiōn g165)
U awm hqing nawh kai anik cangnaak taw ityk awm am thi voel kaw. Ve ve nak cangnaak aw?” tina hy. (aiōn g165)
27 She said to him, Yes, Lord: my faith is that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.
Anih ing, “Oeih, Bawipa, nang taw Khrih, khawmdek awh ak law hly kawi Khawsa Capa ni, tice nik cangna nyng,” tina hy.
28 And having said this, she went away and said secretly to her sister Mary, The Master is here and has sent for you.
Ce ak awi ce ak kqawn coengawh, cet nawh a naa Meri ce a venna khy hy. “Cawngpyikung law hawh hy, nang nik thoem hy,” tina hy.
29 And Mary, hearing this, got up quickly and went to him.
Meri ing ce ak awi ce ang zaak awh, ang tawnna tho nawh a venna cet hy.
30 Now Jesus had not at this time come into the town, but was still in the place where Martha had seen him.
Cawh Jesu ce khawk khuina lut hlan hy, Martha ing ang hqumnaak a hun awh ni a awm hyn hy.
31 Then the Jews who were with her in the house, comforting her, when they saw Mary get up quickly and go out, went after her in the belief that she was going to the place of the dead and would be weeping there.
Im awh Meri amik hloep Judakhqi ing, tho hqoet nawh a ceh ce ami huh awh hquut uhy, phyi na ak kqah na cet vang, tina mih hy tina poek uhy.
32 When Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she went down at his feet, saying, Lord, if you had been here my brother would not be dead.
Meri ing Jesu a awmnaak hun ce pha nawh anih ce a huh awh, a khawkung awh koep nawh, “Bawipa, nang na awm mantaw ka napa amak thi hly,” tina hy.
33 And when Jesus saw her weeping, and saw the Jews weeping who came with her, his spirit was moved and he was troubled,
Anih ang kqang ingkaw anih mi amik law haih Judahkhqi ang kqang ce a huh awh, ak khuina kqang nawh kawsee hy.
34 And said, Where have you put him? They said, Come and see, Lord.
“Hana nami soei?” tinak khqi hy. Cekkhqi ing, “Bawipa, law nawhtaw toek lah,” tina uhy.
35 And Jesus himself was weeping.
Jesu kqang hy.
36 So the Jews said, See how dear he was to him!
Judahkhqi ing, “Toek lah uh, i ikawmyih aih na nu a lungnaak ce!” ti uhy.
37 But some of them said, This man, who made open the eyes of the blind man, was he not able to keep his friend from death?
Cehlai thlang vang ing, “Mikhyp ak qoei sakkung ve ak thlang ing anih ve ama thihnaak aham am sai hly thai nawh hy voei nu?” ti uhy.
38 So Jesus, deeply troubled in heart, came to the place of the dead. It was a hole in the rock, and a stone was over the opening.
Jesu taw ak kawkhuiawh ak kawseet doena phyi ce pha hy. Ce a phyi taw luk kawk na awm nawh lungpei ing tleng uhy.
39 Jesus said, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said, Lord, by this time the body will be smelling, for he has been dead four days.
“Lungpei ce thoeng uh, tinak khqi hy. Cehlai thlak thi a nanu Martha ing, “Bawipa, tuhtaw a baw khqim hawh hy voei, phlinyn di hawh nawh,” tina hy.
40 Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you had faith you would see the glory of God?
Jesu ing, “Nak cangnaak awhtaw Khawsa a boeimangnaak hu kawp tinawh am ka ti nawh aw?” tina hy.
41 So they took away the stone. And Jesus, looking up to heaven, said, Father, I give praise to you for hearing me.
Cedawngawh lungpei ce thoeng pe uhy. Cawh Jesu ing hak toek nawh, “Ka Pa, kak awi ning ngaih pe tik saw zeel nyng.
42 I was certain that your ears are at all times open to me, but I said it because of these who are here, so that they may see that you sent me.
Kak awi ning ngai pe poepa hyk ti tice sim nyng. Nang ing kai ni tyi hyk ti tice vawhkaw ak dyi thlangkhqi ing amik cangnaak thai aham ve ak awi ve kqawn nyng,” tina hy.
43 Then he said in a loud voice, Lazarus, come out!
Ve ak awi ak kqawn boet coengawh, Jesu ing khawteh na, “Lazaru cawn law hlah,” tina hy.
44 And he who was dead came out, with linen bands folded tightly about his hands and feet, and a cloth about his face. Jesus said to them, Make him free and let him go.
Cawh thlak thi taw a kut a khaw hi ing a zeen doena cawn law nawh, a haai awm hi ing a zeen khoep na awm saw, Jesu ing, “Hi ce hlam pe unawh ceh sak uh,” tinak khqi hy.
45 Then a number of the Jews who had come to Mary and had seen the things which Jesus did had belief in him.
Meri ak hqip law Juda thlang khawzah ing, Jesu a them sai ce ami huh awh, ak khanawh cangnaak ce ta uhy.
46 But some of them went to the Pharisees with the news of what Jesus had done.
Cehlai thlang vang tloek ce Farasikhqi venna cet unawh Jesu ing them a sai ce kqawn pe uhy.
47 Then the high priests and the Pharisees had a meeting and said, What are we doing? This man is doing a number of signs.
Cawh khawsoeih boeikhqi ingkaw Farasikhqi ing Sanhedrin ngawihcunnaak ce sai uhy. “Ikaw ni sai lah voei uh? Ve ak thlang ing kawpoek kyi ik-oeih khawzah sai hawh hy.
48 If we let him go on in this way, everybody will have belief in him and the Romans will come and take away our place and our nation.
Vemyihna ni hlah mantaw, thlang boeih ing cangna hawh kawm uh, cawh Rom thlangkhqi law kawm usaw ni tui ni khaw ve lo law hawh kawm uh,” ti uhy.
49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, You have no knowledge of anything;
Cawh, a mingmih anglakawh Kaiapha ak mingnaak thlang pynoet, ce a kum awh khawsoeih boei khyt na ak awm ing, “Ikaw awm am sim uhyk ti!
50 You do not see that it is in your interest for one man to be put to death for the people, so that all the nation may not come to destruction.
Rampum thlang a plawci naak anglakawhtaw thlang pynoet a thih nep bet hy tice am sim uhyk ti,” tinak khqi hy.
51 He did not say this of himself, but being the high priest that year he said, as a prophet, that Jesus would be put to death for the nation;
Ve ak awi ve amah poek awh ap kqawn hy, ce a kum awh khawsoeih boei khyt na a awm amyihna Juda thlangkhqi ham Jesu thi kaw tice lamnaa na ak kqawn hawh ni,
52 And not for that nation only, but for the purpose of uniting in one body the children of God all over the world.
ce a qam doeng ham am nawh ak plam Khawsa cakhqi ce cawi boeih nawh pynoet na a taaknaak ahamni.
53 And from that day they took thought together how to put him to death.
Cedawngawh ce a nyn awhkawng him aham teng hawh uhy.
54 So Jesus no longer went about publicly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near to the waste land, to a town named Ephraim, where he was for some time with the disciples.
Cedawngawh Jesu taw Juda thlang kqeng anglakawh ang dang qoeng na am cet voel hy. Qamkoh a venawh kaw ak awm Ephraim khaw a venawh cet nawh, cawh ce a hubatkhqi mi awm uhy.
55 Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and numbers of people went up from the country to Jerusalem to make themselves clean before the Passover.
Judahkhqi a Loentak Poei a pha tawm awhtaw cehtaak Poei hlanawh silh qu aham thlang khawzah ing khaw a qam awhkawng Jerusalem na ce cet uhy.
56 They were looking for Jesus and saying to one another while they were in the Temple, What is your opinion? Will he not come to the feast?
Cawh Jesu ce sui unawh, bawkim khuiawh dyih unawh doet qu uhy, “Ikawmyihna nak poek? Poei awh am law hly nawh nu?” ti uhy.
57 Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone had knowledge where he was, he was to give them word, so that they might take him.
Cehlai khawsoeih boeikhqi ingkaw Farasikhqi ing, u ingawm Jesu ce a huh awhtaw, a mingmih a venawh kqawn pe nawh, tu aham awi pe hyt uhy.
