John 11
1 NOW there was a sick man, Lazarus, of Bethany, the village 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 (It was the Mary who had anointed the Lord with the balm, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)
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 The sisters therefore sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.
Cedawngawh cekqawi cingna ing Jesu ce awi cah hy nih, “Bawipa, nang ing na lungnaak thlang ce tlo hy,” tina hy nih.
4 When Jesus heard it, he said, This sickness is not for death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified thereby.
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 loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
Jesu ing Martha cingna ingkaw a napa ce lungna hy.
6 Then, though he heard he was ill, yet notwithstanding he abode in the same place where he was two days.
Cehlai Lazaru ce tlo hy ti ang zaak awh, ce a hun awh khaw hih voei awmtaak hun hy.
7 But after that he saith to his disciples, Let us go again into Judea.
Cekcoengawh a hubatkhqi venawh, “Jerusalem na cet tlaih hlah u sih nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
8 The disciples say unto him, Rabbi, the Jews have just now sought to stone thee; and art thou going thither 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 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he doth not stumble, because he seeth 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 walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light with him.
Khaw amang dang dawngawh, khawmthan awh ni thlang ang bah hy,” tinak khqi hy.
11 These things said he: and after that he saith to them, Our friend Lazarus is asleep; but I go to waken him up.
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 said his disciples, Lord, if he is asleep, he will recover.
A hubatkhqi ing, “Bawipa, anih ce a ih awhtaw leek lawt bit kaw,” tina uhy.
13 Now Jesus had spoken of his death: but they apprehended that he spake of 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 therefore told them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
Cedawngawh cekkhqi venawh ak zoei cana kqawn pek khqi tlaih hy, “Lazaru taw thi hawh hy.
15 And I rejoice on your account that I was not there, in order that ye may believe; 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 said Thomas, (called Didymus, the twin, ) to his fellow-disciples, Let us go too, that we may die with him.
Cawh Thomas ing hubat ak changkhqi venawh, “Anih ing thih haih aham, ningnih awm cet lawt u sih cet uh,” tinak khqi hy.
17 Then Jesus, when he came; found that he had already lain in the tomb four days.
Ami pha awhtaw, Lazaru ce phyi khuiawh khaw phlinyn awm hawh hy, tice Jesu ing sim hy.
18 Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:
Bethani khaw taw Jerusalem khaw awhkawng meng hih am hla hy.
19 and many of the Jews had come with the women who were about Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.
A napa a thih dawngawh Meri ingkaw Martha ce hloep aham thlang khawzah law uhy.
20 Then Martha, when she heard that Jesus was coming, met him: but Mary sat in the house.
Jesu law hy tice Martha ing ang zaak awh, ak do na ce cet hy, Meri taw im awh awm hy.
21 And Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
Martha ing Jesu a venawh, “Bawipa, nang mah na awm mantaw, ka napa am thi voei.
22 But even now I know, that whatsoever things thou shalt ask of God, God will give thee.
Cehlai tuh awm Khawsa avenawh na thoeh a saqui ce ni pe kaw, tice sim nyng,” tina hy.
23 Jesus saith to her, Thy brother shall rise again.
Jesu ing a venawh, “Na napa ce tho tlaih kaw,” tina hy.
24 Martha saith to him, I know that he shall rise at the resurrection in 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 unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
Jesu ing a venawh, “Kai taw thawhtlaihnaak ingkaw hqingnaak na awm nyng. Kai anik cangnaak thlang taw thi seiawm hqing kaw.
26 and every one who is alive, and believeth in me, shall never die to eternity. Believest thou this? (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 saith to him, Yes, Lord I believe that thou art the Messiah, the Son of God, who cometh 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 So when she had thus spoken, she went away, and called her sister Mary privately, saying, The Master is near at hand, and calleth for thee.
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 As soon as she heard it, she rose hastily, and came to him.
Meri ing ce ak awi ce ang zaak awh, ang tawnna tho nawh a venna cet hy.
30 Now Jesus was not yet come into the village, but was on the spot where Martha had met 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, and comforting her, observing Mary, that she rose up hastily, and went out, followed her, saying, She is going to the tomb, to weep 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 therefore Mary was come where Jesus was, beholding him, she fell at his feet, saying to him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother would not have died!
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 When Jesus then saw her weeping, and all the Jews who came with her lamenting, he groaned in spirit, and was himself greatly agitated:
Anih ang kqang ingkaw anih mi amik law haih Judahkhqi ang kqang ce a huh awh, ak khuina kqang nawh kawsee hy.
34 and he said, Where have ye laid him? They say to him, Lord, come and see.
“Hana nami soei?” tinak khqi hy. Cekkhqi ing, “Bawipa, law nawhtaw toek lah,” tina uhy.
35 Jesus wept.
Jesu kqang hy.
36 Then said the Jews, Behold, how he loved him!
Judahkhqi ing, “Toek lah uh, i ikawmyih aih na nu a lungnaak ce!” ti uhy.
37 But some of them said, Could not this man, who openeth the eyes of the blind, have caused that this person should not have died?
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 Then Jesus again groaning in himself, cometh to the sepulchre. It was an excavation, and a stone lay upon it.
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 saith, Remove the stone. The sister of the deceased, Martha, said to him, Lord, he is by this time putrid: for he hath 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 saith unto her, Did I not tell thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?
Jesu ing, “Nak cangnaak awhtaw Khawsa a boeimangnaak hu kawp tinawh am ka ti nawh aw?” tina hy.
41 Then they removed the stone where the deceased was lying. And Jesus lifted his eyes upwards, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard 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 And I knew that thou always dost hear me: but for the sake of the multitude standing by I spake, that they may believe that thou hast 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 And when he had thus spoken, with a loud voice he cried, Lazarus, come forth!
Ve ak awi ak kqawn boet coengawh, Jesu ing khawteh na, “Lazaru cawn law hlah,” tina hy.
44 And the deceased came forth, his feet and his hands wrapped with the linen swathes; and his face bound round with a napkin. Jesus saith to them, Loose him, 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 many of the Jews who came to Mary, and saw what Jesus had done, believed on 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, and told them what things Jesus had done.
Cehlai thlang vang tloek ce Farasikhqi venna cet unawh Jesu ing them a sai ce kqawn pe uhy.
47 The chief priests and Pharisees therefore called the sanhedrim together, and said, What are we about? for this man is doing many miracles.
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 suffer him to go on thus, all men will believe on him: and the Romans will come, and take away both our place and 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 Then one particular person of them, Caiaphas, being the high-priest of that year, said unto them, Ye know nothing,
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 nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation be not destroyed.
Rampum thlang a plawci naak anglakawhtaw thlang pynoet a thih nep bet hy tice am sim uhyk ti,” tinak khqi hy.
51 And this he spake not from himself: but being the high-priest of that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die 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 that he should collect into one body the children of God wherever dispersed.
ce a qam doeng ham am nawh ak plam Khawsa cakhqi ce cawi boeih nawh pynoet na a taaknaak ahamni.
53 Then from that day they consulted together how they might kill him.
Cedawngawh ce a nyn awhkawng him aham teng hawh uhy.
54 Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews, but went thence into the country bordering on the desert, to a city called Ephraim, and there he abode with his 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 many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the passover, in order to purify themselves.
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 Then they sought for Jesus, and said one to another, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will 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 both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given commandment, that, if any person knew where he was, they should declare it, that they might apprehend 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.
