< John 11 >

1 And a certaine man was sicke, named Lazarus of Bethania, the towne of Marie, and her sister Martha.
Erat autem quidem languens Lazarus a Bethania, de castello Mariæ, et Marthæ sororis eius.
2 (And it was that Mary which anointed the Lord with oyntment, and wiped his feete with her heare, whose brother Lazarus was sicke.)
(Maria autem erat, quæ unxit Dominum unguento, et extersit pedes eius capillis suis: cuius frater Lazarus infirmabatur.)
3 Therefore his sisters sent vnto him, saying, Lord, beholde, he whome thou louest, is sicke.
Miserunt ergo sorores eius ad eum dicentes: Domine, ecce quem amas infirmatur.
4 When Iesus heard it, he saide, This sickenes is not vnto death, but for the glorie of God, that the Sonne of God might be glorified thereby.
Audiens autem Iesus dixit eis: Infirmitas hæc non est ad mortem, sed pro gloria Dei, ut glorificetur Filius Dei per eam.
5 Nowe Iesus loued Martha and her sister, and Lazarus.
Diligebat autem Iesus Martham, et sororem eius Mariam, et Lazarum.
6 And after he had heard that he was sicke, yet abode hee two dayes still in the same place where he was.
Ut ergo audivit quia infirmabatur, tunc quidem mansit in eodem loco duobus diebus.
7 Then after that, said he to his disciples, Let vs goe into Iudea againe.
deinde post hæc dixit discipulis suis: Eamus in Iudæam iterum.
8 The disciples saide vnto him, Master, the Iewes lately sought to stone thee, and doest thou goe thither againe?
Dicunt ei discipuli: Rabbi, nunc quærebant te Iudæi lapidare, et iterum vadis illuc?
9 Iesus answered, Are there not twelue houres in the day? If a man walke in the day, hee stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
Respondit Iesus: Nonne duodecim sunt horæ diei? Si quis ambulaverit in die, non offendit, quia lucem huius mundi videt:
10 But if a man walke in the night, hee stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
si autem ambulaverit in nocte, offendit, quia lux non est in eo.
11 These things spake he, and after, he said vnto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth: but I goe to wake him vp.
Hæc ait, et post hæc dixit eis: Lazarus amicus noster dormit: sed vado ut a somno excitem eum.
12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleepe, he shalbe safe.
Dixerunt ergo discipuli eius: Domine, si dormit, salvus erit.
13 Howbeit, Iesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of the naturall sleepe.
Dixerat autem Iesus de morte eius: illi autem putaverunt quia de dormitione somni diceret.
14 Then saide Iesus vnto them plainely, Lazarus is dead.
Tunc ergo Iesus dixit eis manifeste: Lazarus mortuus est:
15 And I am glad for your sakes, that I was not there, that ye may beleeue: but let vs go vnto him.
et gaudeo propter vos, ut credatis, quoniam non eram ibi. sed eamus ad eum.
16 Then saide Thomas (which is called Didymus) vnto his felow disciples, Let vs also goe, that we may die with him.
Dixit ergo Thomas, qui dicitur Didymus, ad condiscipulos: Eamus et nos, ut moriamur cum eo.
17 Then came Iesus, and found that he had lien in the graue foure dayes alreadie.
Venit itaque Iesus: et invenit eum quattuor dies iam in monumento habentem.
18 (Nowe Bethania was neere vnto Hierusalem, about fifteene furlongs off.)
(Erat autem Bethania iuxta Ierosolymam quasi stadiis quindecim.)
19 And many of ye Iewes were come to Martha and Marie to comfort them for their brother.
Multi autem ex Iudæis venerant ad Martham, et Mariam, ut consolarentur eas de fratre suo.
20 Then Martha, when shee heard that Iesus was comming, went to meete him: but Mary sate still in the house.
Martha ergo ut audivit quia Iesus venit, occurrit illi: Maria autem domi sedebat.
21 Then said Martha vnto Iesus, Lord, if thou hadst bene here, my brother had not bene dead.
Dixit ergo Martha ad Iesum: Domine, si fuisses hic, frater meus non fuisset mortuus:
22 But now I know also, that whatsoeuer thou askest of God, God will giue it thee.
Sed et nunc scio quia quæcumque poposceris a Deo, dabit tibi Deus.
23 Iesus said vnto her, Thy brother shall rise againe.
Dicit illi Iesus: Resurget frater tuus.
24 Martha said vnto him, I know that he shall rise againe in the resurrection at the last day.
Dicit ei Martha: Scio quia resurget in resurrectione in novissimo die.
25 Iesus saide vnto her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that beleeueth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he liue.
Dixit ei Iesus: Ego sum resurrectio, et vita: qui credit in me, etiam si mortuus fuerit, vivet:
26 And whosoeuer liueth, and beleeueth in me, shall neuer die: Beleeuest thou this? (aiōn g165)
et omnis, qui vivit, et credit in me, non morietur in æternum. Credis hoc? (aiōn g165)
27 She said vnto him, Yea, Lord, I beleeue that thou art that Christ that Sonne of God, which should come into the world.
Ait illi: Utique Domine, ego credidi, quia tu es Christus filius Dei vivi, qui in hunc mundum venisti.
28 And when she had so saide, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.
Et cum hæc dixisset, abiit, et vocavit Mariam sororem suam silentio, dicens: Magister adest, et vocat te.
29 And when she heard it, shee arose quickly, and came vnto him.
Illa ut audivit, surgit cito, et venit ad eum:
30 For Iesus was not yet come into the towne, but was in the place where Martha met him.
nondum enim venerat Iesus in castellum: sed erat adhuc in illo loco, ubi occurrerat ei Martha.
31 The Iewes then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they sawe Marie, that she rose vp hastily, and went out, folowed her, saying, She goeth vnto the graue, to weepe there.
Iudæi ergo, qui erant cum ea in domo, et consolabantur eam, cum vidissent Mariam quia cito surrexit, et exiit, secuti sunt eam dicentes: Quia vadit ad monumentum, ut ploret ibi.
32 Then when Mary was come where Iesus was, and sawe him, she fell downe at his feete, saying vnto him, Lord, if thou haddest bene here, my brother had not bene dead.
Maria ergo, cum venisset ubi erat Iesus, videns eum, cecidit ad pedes eius, et dicit ei: Domine, si fuisses hic, non esset mortuus frater meus.
33 When Iesus therefore saw her weepe, and the Iewes also weepe which came with her, hee groned in the spirit, and was troubled in himselfe,
Iesus ergo, ut vidit eam plorantem, et Iudæos, qui venerant cum ea, plorantes, infremuit spiritu, et turbavit seipsum,
34 And saide, Where haue ye layde him? They said vnto him, Lord, come and see.
et dixit: Ubi posuistis eum? Dicunt ei: Domine, veni, et vide.
35 And Iesus wept.
Et lacrymatus est Iesus.
36 Then saide the Iewes, Beholde, how he loued him.
Dixerunt ergo Iudæi: Ecce quomodo amabat eum.
37 And some of them saide, Coulde not he, which opened the eyes of the blinde, haue made also, that this man should not haue died?
Quidam autem ex ipsis dixerunt: Non poterat hic, qui aperuit oculos cæci nati, facere ut hic non moreretur?
38 Iesus therefore againe groned in himselfe, and came to the graue. And it was a caue, and a stone was layde vpon it.
Iesus ergo rursum fremens in semetipso, venit ad monumentum. erat autem spelunca: et lapis superpositus erat ei.
39 Iesus saide, Take ye away the stone. Martha the sister of him that was dead, said vnto him, Lord, he stinketh alreadie: for he hath bene dead foure dayes.
Ait Iesus: Tollite lapidem. Dicit ei Martha soror eius, qui mortuus fuerat: Domine, iam fœtet, quatriduanus est enim.
40 Iesus saide vnto her, Saide I not vnto thee, that if thou diddest beleeue, thou shouldest see the glorie of God?
Dicit ei Iesus: Nonne dixi tibi quoniam si credideris, videbis gloriam Dei?
41 Then they tooke away the stone from the place where the dead was layde. And Iesus lift vp his eyes, and saide, Father, I thanke thee, because thou hast heard me.
Tulerunt ergo lapidem: Iesus autem elevatis sursum oculis, dixit: Pater gratias ago tibi quoniam audisti me.
42 I knowe that thou hearest me alwayes, but because of the people that stand by, I said it, that they may beleeue, that thou hast sent me.
ego autem sciebam quia semper me audis, sed propter populum, qui circumstat, dixi: ut credant quia tu me misisti.
43 As hee had spoken these things, hee cried with a loude voyce, Lazarus, come foorth.
Hæc cum dixisset, voce magna clamavit: Lazare veni foras.
44 Then he that was dead, came forth, bound hande and foote with bandes, and his face was bound with a napkin. Iesus said vnto them, Loose him, and let him goe.
Et statim prodiit qui fuerat mortuus, ligatus pedes, et manus institis, et facies illius sudario erat ligata. Dixit eis Iesus: Solvite eum, et sinite abire.
45 Then many of the Iewes, which came to Mary, and had seene the thinges, which Iesus did, beleeued in him.
Multi ergo ex Iudæis, qui venerant ad Mariam, et Martham, et viderant quæ fecit Iesus, crediderunt in eum.
46 But some of them went their way to the Pharises, and told them what things Iesus had done.
Quidam autem ex ipsis abierunt ad Pharisæos, et dixerunt eis quæ fecit Iesus.
47 Then gathered the hie Priests, and the Pharises a councill, and said, What shall we doe? For this man doeth many miracles.
Collegerunt ergo Pontifices et Pharisæi concilium, et dicebant: Quid faciamus, quia hic homo multa signa facit?
48 If we let him thus alone, all men will beleeue in him, and the Romanes will come and take away both our place, and the nation.
Si dimittimus eum sic, omnes credent in eum: et venient Romani, et tollent nostrum locum, et gentem.
49 Then one of them named Caiaphas, which was the hie Priest that same yere, said vnto them, Ye perceiue nothing at all,
Unus autem ex ipsis Caiphas nomine, cum esset Pontifex anni illius, dixit eis: Vos nescitis quidquam,
50 Nor yet doe you consider that it is expedient for vs, that one man die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.
nec cogitatis quia expedit vobis ut unus moriatur homo pro populo, et non tota gens pereat.
51 This spake hee not of himselfe: but being hie Priest that same yere, he prophecied that Iesus should die for that nation:
Hoc autem a semetipso non dixit: sed cum esset Pontifex anni illius, prophetavit, quod Iesus moriturus erat pro gente,
52 And not for that nation onely, but that he shoulde gather together in one the children of God, which were scattered.
et non tantum pro gente, sed ut filios Dei, qui erant dispersi, congregaret in unum.
53 Then from that day foorth they consulted together, to put him to death.
Ab illo ergo die cogitaverunt ut interficerent eum.
54 Iesus therefore walked no more openly among the Iewes, but went thence vnto a countrey neere to the wildernes, into a citie called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.
Iesus ergo iam non in palam ambulabat apud Iudæos, sed abiit in regionem iuxta desertum, in civitatem, quæ dicitur Ephrem, et ibi morabatur cum discipulis suis.
55 And the Iewes Passeouer was at hande, and many went out of the countrey vp to Hierusalem before the Passeouer, to purifie themselues.
Proximum autem erat Pascha Iudæorum: et ascenderunt multi Ierosolymam de regione ante Pascha, ut sanctificarent se ipsos.
56 Then sought they for Iesus, and spake among themselues, as they stoode in the Temple, What thinke ye, that he cometh not to the feast?
Quærebant ergo Iesum: et colloquebantur ad invicem, in templo stantes: Quid putatis, quia non venit ad diem festum?
57 Now both the high Priestes and the Pharises had giuen a commandement, that if any man knew where he were, he should shew it, that they might take him.
Dederant autem Pontifices, et Pharisæi mandatum, ut si quis cognoverit ubi sit, indicet, ut apprehendant eum.
