John 11
1 Now a certain man named Lazarus was sick. He was from 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 Mary who anointed the Lord with myrrh 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 then sent for Jesus, saying, “Lord, see, he whom you love 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 to death, but instead it is for the glory of God so that the Son of God may be glorified by 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 loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
Jesu ing Martha cingna ingkaw a napa ce lungna hy.
6 So when he heard that Lazarus was sick, Jesus stayed two more days in the place where he was.
Cehlai Lazaru ce tlo hy ti ang zaak awh, ce a hun awh khaw hih voei awmtaak hun hy.
7 Then after this, he said to the disciples, “Let us go to Judea again.”
Cekcoengawh a hubatkhqi venawh, “Jerusalem na cet tlaih hlah u sih nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
8 The disciples said to him, “Rabbi, right now the Jews are trying to stone you, and you are 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 Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of light in a day? If someone walks in the daytime, he will not stumble, because he sees by 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 However, if he walks at night, he will stumble because the light is not in him.”
Khaw amang dang dawngawh, khawmthan awh ni thlang ang bah hy,” tinak khqi hy.
11 He said these things, and after these things, he said to them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may wake him out of 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 The disciples therefore said to him, “Lord, if he has fallen 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 thought that he was speaking about the sleep of resting.
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 plainly, “Lazarus is dead.
Cedawngawh cekkhqi venawh ak zoei cana kqawn pek khqi tlaih hy, “Lazaru taw thi hawh hy.
15 I am glad, for your sakes, that I was not there so that you may believe. Let us go to him.”
Cawh am ka awm nangmih aham zeel nyng, cawh ni nangmih ing namik cangnaak hly,” tinak khqi hy.
16 Thomas, who was called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go so that we may die with Jesus.”
Cawh Thomas ing hubat ak changkhqi venawh, “Anih ing thih haih aham, ningnih awm cet lawt u sih cet uh,” tinak khqi hy.
17 When Jesus came, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days.
Ami pha awhtaw, Lazaru ce phyi khuiawh khaw phlinyn awm hawh hy, tice Jesu ing sim hy.
18 Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia away.
Bethani khaw taw Jerusalem khaw awhkawng meng hih am hla hy.
19 Many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them about 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, went to meet him, but Mary was sitting 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 Martha then said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
Martha ing Jesu a venawh, “Bawipa, nang mah na awm mantaw, ka napa am thi voei.
22 Even now, I know that whatever you ask from God, he will give 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 rise again.”
Jesu ing a venawh, “Na napa ce tho tlaih kaw,” tina hy.
24 Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on 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 the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me, even if he dies, will live;
Jesu ing a venawh, “Kai taw thawhtlaihnaak ingkaw hqingnaak na awm nyng. Kai anik cangnaak thlang taw thi seiawm hqing kaw.
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, I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming 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 When she had said this, she went away and called her sister Mary privately. She said, “The Teacher is here and is calling 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 When she heard this, she 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 yet come into the village but was still in the place 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 So when the Jews, who were with her in the house and who were comforting her, saw Mary getting up quickly and going out, they followed her, thinking that she was 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 Mary came to the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell down at his feet and said to him, “Lord, if you had 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 saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in his spirit and 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 he said, “Where have you laid him?” They said 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 the Jews said, “See how much he loved Lazarus!”
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 opened the eyes of a blind man, also have made this man not die?”
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, being deeply moved in himself, went to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against 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 said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of Lazarus, the one who had died, said to Jesus, “Lord, by this time the body will be decaying, for he has been dead for 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 believed, 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. Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, “Father, I thank you that you listened to 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 knew that you always listen to me, but it is because of the crowd that is standing around me that I said this, so that they may believe that you have 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 After he had said this, he cried out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”
Ve ak awi ak kqawn boet coengawh, Jesu ing khawteh na, “Lazaru cawn law hlah,” tina hy.
44 The dead man came out; his feet and hands were bound with cloths, and his face was bound about with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Untie 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 did, believed 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 away to the Pharisees and told them the things that Jesus had done.
Cehlai thlang vang tloek ce Farasikhqi venna cet unawh Jesu ing them a sai ce kqawn pe uhy.
47 Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered the council together and said, “What will we do? This man does many 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 leave him alone like this, all will believe in him; the Romans will come and take away both 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 However, a certain man among them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You 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 You do not consider that it is better for you that one man dies for the people than that the whole nation perishes.”
Rampum thlang a plawci naak anglakawhtaw thlang pynoet a thih nep bet hy tice am sim uhyk ti,” tinak khqi hy.
51 Now this he said not from himself. Instead, being high priest 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 only for the nation, but so that the children of God who are scattered would be gathered together into one.
ce a qam doeng ham am nawh ak plam Khawsa cakhqi ce cawi boeih nawh pynoet na a taaknaak ahamni.
53 So from that day onward they planned how to put Jesus to death.
Cedawngawh ce a nyn awhkawng him aham teng hawh uhy.
54 No longer did Jesus walk openly among the Jews, but he departed from there into the country near to the wilderness into a town called Ephraim. There he stayed 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 many went up to Jerusalem from 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 They were looking for Jesus, and speaking one with another as they stood in the temple, “What do you think? That he will not come to the festival?”
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 an order that if anyone knew where Jesus was, he should report it so that they might seize 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.
