John 11
1 Now there was a certain sick man, Lazarus of Bethania, from the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
Ήτο δε τις ασθενής Λάζαρος από Βηθανίας, εκ της κώμης της Μαρίας και Μάρθας της αδελφής αυτής.
2 And Mary was the one who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair; her brother Lazarus was sick.
Η δε Μαρία ήτο η αλείψασα τον Κύριον με μύρον και σπογγίσασα τους πόδας αυτού με τας τρίχας αυτής, της οποίας ο αδελφός Λάζαρος ησθένει.
3 Therefore, his sisters sent to him, saying: “Lord, behold, he whom you love is sick.”
Απέστειλαν λοιπόν αι αδελφαί προς αυτόν, λέγουσαι· Κύριε, ιδού, εκείνος τον οποίον αγαπάς, ασθενεί.
4 Then, upon hearing this, Jesus said to them: “This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified by it.”
Και ακούσας ο Ιησούς είπεν· Αύτη η ασθένεια δεν είναι προς θάνατον, αλλ' υπέρ της δόξης του Θεού, διά να δοξασθή ο Υιός του Θεού δι' αυτής.
5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister Mary, and Lazarus.
Ηγάπα δε ο Ιησούς την Μάρθαν και την αδελφήν αυτής και τον Λάζαρον.
6 Even so, after he heard that he was sick, he then still remained in the same place for two days.
Καθώς λοιπόν ήκουσεν ότι ασθενεί, τότε μεν έμεινε δύο ημέρας εν τω τόπω όπου ήτο·
7 Then, after these things, he said to his disciples, “Let us go into Judea again.”
έπειτα μετά τούτο λέγει προς τους μαθητάς· Ας υπάγωμεν εις την Ιουδαίαν πάλιν.
8 The disciples said to him: “Rabbi, the Jews are even now seeking to stone you. And would you go there again?”
Λέγουσι προς αυτόν οι μαθηταί· Ραββί, τώρα εζήτουν να σε λιθοβολήσωσιν οι Ιουδαίοι, και πάλιν υπάγεις εκεί;
9 Jesus responded: “Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the daylight, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
Απεκρίθη ο Ιησούς· Δεν είναι δώδεκα αι ώραι της ημέρας; εάν τις περιπατή εν τη ημέρα, δεν προσκόπτει, διότι βλέπει το φως του κόσμου τούτου·
10 But if he walks in the nighttime, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”
εάν τις όμως περιπατή εν τη νυκτί, προσκόπτει, διότι το φως δεν είναι εν αυτώ.
11 He said these things, and after this, he said to them: “Lazarus our friend is sleeping. But I am going, so that I may awaken him from sleep.”
Ταύτα είπε, και μετά τούτο λέγει προς αυτούς· Λάζαρος ο φίλος ημών εκοιμήθη· αλλά υπάγω διά να εξυπνήσω αυτόν.
12 And so his disciples said, “Lord, if he is sleeping, he shall be healthy.”
Είπον λοιπόν οι μαθηταί αυτού· Κύριε, αν εκοιμήθη, θέλει σωθή.
13 But Jesus had spoken about his death. Yet they thought that he spoke about the repose of sleep.
Αλλ' ο Ιησούς είχεν ειπεί περί του θανάτου αυτού· εκείνοι όμως ενόμισαν ότι λέγει περί της κοιμήσεως του ύπνου.
14 Therefore, Jesus then said to them plainly, “Lazarus has died.
Τότε λοιπόν είπε προς αυτούς ο Ιησούς παρρησία· Ο Λάζαρος απέθανε.
15 And I am glad for your sake that I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.”
Και χαίρω διά σας, διά να πιστεύσητε, διότι δεν ήμην εκεί· αλλ' ας υπάγωμεν προς αυτόν.
16 And then Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us go, too, so that we may die with him.”
Είπε δε ο Θωμάς, ο λεγόμενος Δίδυμος προς τους συμμαθητάς· Ας υπάγωμεν και ημείς, διά να αποθάνωμεν μετ' αυτού.
17 And so Jesus went. And he found that he had already been in the tomb for four days.
Ελθών λοιπόν ο Ιησούς εύρεν αυτόν τέσσαρας ημέρας έχοντα ήδη εν τω μνημείω.
18 (Now Bethania was near Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia. )
Ήτο δε η Βηθανία πλησίον των Ιεροσολύμων, απέχουσα ως δεκαπέντε στάδια.
19 And many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, so as to console them over their brother.
Και πολλοί εκ των Ιουδαίων είχον ελθεί προς την Μάρθαν και Μαρίαν, διά να παρηγορήσωσιν αυτάς περί του αδελφού αυτών.
20 Therefore, Martha, when she heard that Jesus was arriving, went out to meet him. But Mary was sitting at home.
Η Μάρθα λοιπόν, καθώς ήκουσεν ότι ο Ιησούς έρχεται, υπήντησεν αυτόν· η δε Μαρία εκάθητο εν τω οίκω.
21 And then Martha said to Jesus: “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
Είπε λοιπόν η Μάρθα προς τον Ιησούν· Κύριε, εάν ήσο εδώ, ο αδελφός μου δεν ήθελεν αποθάνει.
22 But even now, I know that whatever you will request from God, God will give to you.”
Πλην και τώρα εξεύρω ότι όσα ζητήσης παρά του Θεού, θέλει σοι δώσει ο Θεός.
23 Jesus said to her, “Your brother shall rise again.”
Λέγει προς αυτήν ο Ιησούς· Ο αδελφός σου θέλει αναστηθή.
24 Martha said to him, “I know that he shall rise again, at the resurrection on the last day.”
Λέγει προς αυτόν η Μάρθα· Εξεύρω ότι θέλει αναστηθή εν τη αναστάσει εν τη εσχάτη ημέρα.
25 Jesus said to her: “I am the Resurrection and the Life. Whoever believes in me, even though he has died, he shall live.
Είπε προς αυτήν ο Ιησούς· Εγώ είμαι η ανάστασις και η ζωή· ο πιστεύων εις εμέ, και αν αποθάνη, θέλει ζήσει·
26 And everyone who lives and believes in me shall not die for eternity. Do you believe this?” (aiōn g165)
και πας όστις ζη και πιστεύει εις εμέ δεν θέλει αποθάνει εις τον αιώνα. Πιστεύεις τούτο; (aiōn g165)
27 She said to him: “Certainly, Lord. I have believed that you are the Christ, the Son of the living God, who has come into this world.”
Λέγει προς αυτόν· Ναι, Κύριε, εγώ επίστευσα ότι συ είσαι ο Χριστός, ο Υιός του Θεού, ο ερχόμενος εις τον κόσμον.
28 And when she had said these things, she went and called her sister Mary quietly, saying, “The Teacher is here, and he is calling you.”
Και αφού είπε ταύτα, υπήγε και εφώναξε Μαρίαν την αδελφήν αυτής κρυφίως και είπεν· Ο Διδάσκαλος ήλθε και σε κράζει.
29 When she heard this, she rose up quickly and went to him.
Εκείνη, καθώς ήκουσε, σηκόνεται ταχέως και έρχεται προς αυτόν.
30 For Jesus had not yet arrived in the town. But he was still at that place where Martha had met him.
Δεν είχε δε ελθεί ο Ιησούς έτι εις την κώμην, αλλ' ήτο εν τω τόπω, όπου υπήντησεν αυτόν η Μάρθα.
31 Therefore, the Jews who were with her in the house and who were consoling her, when they had seen that Mary rose up quickly and went out, they followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb, so that she may weep there.”
Οι Ιουδαίοι λοιπόν, οι όντες μετ' αυτής εν τη οικία και παρηγορούντες αυτήν, ιδόντες την Μαρίαν ότι εσηκώθη ταχέως και εξήλθεν, ηκολούθησαν αυτήν, λέγοντες ότι υπάγει εις το μνημείον, διά να κλαύση εκεί.
32 Therefore, when Mary had arrived to where Jesus was, seeing him, she fell down at his feet, and she said to him. “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”
Η Μαρία λοιπόν καθώς ήλθεν όπου ήτο ο Ιησούς, ιδούσα αυτόν έπεσεν εις τους πόδας αυτού, λέγουσα προς αυτόν· Κύριε, εάν ήσο εδώ, ο αδελφός μου δεν ήθελεν αποθάνει.
33 And then, when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had arrived with her weeping, he groaned in spirit and became troubled.
Ο δε Ιησούς, καθώς είδεν αυτήν κλαίουσαν και τους ελθόντας μετ' αυτής Ιουδαίους κλαίοντας, εστέναξεν εν τη ψυχή αυτού και εταράχθη,
34 And he said, “Where have you laid him?” They said to him, “Lord, come and see.”
και είπε· Που εβάλετε αυτόν; Λέγουσι προς αυτόν· Κύριε, ελθέ και ίδε.
35 And Jesus wept.
Εδάκρυσεν ο Ιησούς.
36 Therefore, the Jews said, “See how much he loved him!”
Έλεγον λοιπόν οι Ιουδαίοι· Ιδέ πόσον ηγάπα αυτόν.
37 But some of them said, “Would not he who opened the eyes of one born blind have been able to cause this man not to die?”
Τινές δε εξ αυτών είπον· Δεν ηδύνατο ούτος, όστις ήνοιξε τους οφθαλμούς του τυφλού, να κάμη ώστε και ούτος να μη αποθάνη;
38 Therefore, Jesus, again groaning from within himself, went to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone had been placed over it.
Ο Ιησούς λοιπόν, πάλιν στενάζων εν εαυτώ, έρχεται εις το μνημείον· ήτο δε σπήλαιον, και έκειτο λίθος επ' αυτού.
39 Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of him who had died, said to him, “Lord, by now it will smell, for this is the fourth day.”
Λέγει ο Ιησούς· Σηκώσατε τον λίθον. Λέγει προς αυτόν η αδελφή του αποθανόντος η Μάρθα· Κύριε, όζει ήδη· διότι είναι τεσσάρων ημερών.
40 Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you believe, you shall see the glory of God?”
Λέγει προς αυτήν ο Ιησούς· Δεν σοι είπον ότι εάν πιστεύσης, θέλεις ιδεί την δόξαν του Θεού;
41 Therefore, they took away the stone. Then, lifting up his eyes, Jesus said: “Father, I give thanks to you because you have heard me.
Εσήκωσαν λοιπόν τον λίθον, όπου έκειτο ο αποθανών. Ο δε Ιησούς, υψώσας τους οφθαλμούς άνω, είπε· Πάτερ, ευχαριστώ σοι ότι μου ήκουσας.
42 And I know that you always hear me, but I have said this for the sake of the people who are standing nearby, so that they may believe that you have sent me.”
Και εγώ εγνώριζον ότι πάντοτε μου ακούεις· αλλά διά τον όχλον τον περιεστώτα είπον τούτο, διά να πιστεύσωσιν ότι συ με απέστειλας.
43 When he had said these things, he cried in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out.”
Και ταύτα ειπών, μετά φωνής μεγάλης εκραύγασε· Λάζαρε, ελθέ έξω.
44 And immediately, he who had been dead went forth, bound at the feet and hands with winding bands. And his face was bound with a separate cloth. Jesus said to them, “Release him and let him go.”
Και εξήλθεν ο τεθνηκώς, δεδεμένος τους πόδας και τας χείρας με τα σάβανα, και το πρόσωπον αυτού ήτο περιδεδεμένον με σουδάριον. Λέγει προς αυτούς ο Ιησούς· Λύσατε αυτόν και αφήσατε να υπάγη.
45 Therefore, many of the Jews, who had come to Mary and Martha, and who had seen the things that Jesus did, believed in him.
Πολλοί λοιπόν εκ των Ιουδαίων, οίτινες είχον ελθεί εις την Μαρίαν και είδον όσα έκαμεν ο Ιησούς, επίστευσαν εις αυτόν.
46 But certain ones among them went to the Pharisees and told them the things that Jesus had done.
Τινές δε εξ αυτών απήλθον προς τους Φαρισαίους και είπον προς αυτούς όσα έκαμεν ο Ιησούς.
47 And so, the high priests and the Pharisees gathered a council, and they were saying: “What can we do? For this man accomplishes many signs.
Συνεκρότησαν λοιπόν συνέδριον οι αρχιερείς και οι Φαρισαίοι και έλεγον· Τι κάμνομεν, διότι ούτος ο άνθρωπος πολλά θαύματα κάμνει.
48 If we leave him alone, in this way all will believe in him. And then the Romans will come and take away our place and our nation.”
Εάν αφήσωμεν αυτόν ούτω, πάντες θέλουσι πιστεύσει εις αυτόν, και θέλουσιν ελθεί οι Ρωμαίοι και αφανίσει και τον τόπον ημών και το έθνος.
49 Then one of them, named Caiaphas, since he was the high priest that year, said to them: “You do not understand anything.
Εις δε τις εξ αυτών, ο Καϊάφας, όστις ήτο αρχιερεύς του ενιαυτού εκείνου, είπε προς αυτούς· Σεις δεν εξεύρετε τίποτε,
50 Nor do you realize that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the entire nation should not perish.”
ουδέ συλλογίζεσθε ότι μας συμφέρει να αποθάνη εις άνθρωπος υπέρ του λαού και να μη απολεσθή όλον το έθνος.
51 Yet he did not say this from himself, but since he was the high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation.
Τούτο δε αφ' εαυτού δεν είπεν, αλλ' αρχιερεύς ων του ενιαυτού εκείνου προεφήτευσεν ότι έμελλεν ο Ιησούς να αποθάνη υπέρ του έθνους,
52 And not only for the nation, but in order to gather together as one the children of God who have been dispersed.
και ουχί μόνον υπέρ του έθνους, αλλά και διά να συνάξη εις εν τα τέκνα του Θεού τα διεσκορπισμένα.
53 Therefore, from that day, they planned to put him to death.
Απ' εκείνης λοιπόν της ημέρας συνεβουλεύθησαν, διά να θανατώσωσιν αυτόν.
54 And so, Jesus no longer walked in public with the Jews. But he went into a region near the desert, to a city which is called Ephraim. And he lodged there with his disciples.
Όθεν ο Ιησούς δεν περιεπάτει πλέον παρρησία μεταξύ των Ιουδαίων, αλλ' ανεχώρησεν εκείθεν εις τον τόπον πλησίον της ερήμου, εις πόλιν λεγομένην Εφραΐμ, και εκεί διέτριβε μετά των μαθητών αυτού.
55 Now the Passover of the Jews was near. And many from the countryside ascended to Jerusalem before the Passover, so that they might sanctify themselves.
Επλησίαζε δε το πάσχα των Ιουδαίων, και πολλοί ανέβησαν εκ του τόπου εκείνου εις Ιεροσόλυμα προ του πάσχα, διά να καθαρίσωσιν εαυτούς.
56 Therefore, they were seeking Jesus. And they conferred with one another, while standing in the temple: “What do you think? Will he come to the feast day?”
Εζήτουν λοιπόν τον Ιησούν και έλεγον προς αλλήλους ιστάμενοι εν τω ιερώ· Τι σας φαίνεται ότι δεν θέλει ελθεί εις την εορτήν;
57 And the high priests and Pharisees had given an order, so that if anyone would know where he may be, he should reveal it, so that they might apprehend him.
Είχον δε δώσει προσταγήν και οι αρχιερείς και οι Φαρισαίοι, εάν τις μάθη που είναι, να μηνύση, διά να πιάσωσιν αυτόν.
