< John 11 >

1 Was now a certain [man] ailing, Lazarus of Bethany of the village of Mary and Martha the sister of her;
A certayne man was sicke named Lazarus of Bethania the toune of Mary and her sister Martha.
2 Was now Mary the [one] having anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and having wiped the feet of Him with the hair of her, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
It was that Mary which annoynted Iesus with oyntment and wyped his fete with her heere whose brother Lazarus was sicke
3 Sent therefore the sisters to Him saying; Lord, behold [he] whom You love was being sick.
and his sisters sent vnto him sayinge. Lorde behold he whom thou lovest is sicke.
4 Having heard then Jesus said; This sickness not is unto death but for the glory of God that may be glorified the Son of God through it.
When Iesus hearde yt he sayd: this infirmite is not vnto deth but for ye laude of God that the sonne of God myght be praysed by the reason of it.
5 was loving now Jesus Martha and the sister of her and Lazarus.
Iesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
6 When therefore He heard that he is sick, then indeed He remained in which He was [the] place two days.
After he hearde that he was sicke then aboode he two dayes still in the same place where he was.
7 Then after this He says to the disciples; Let us go into Judea again.
Then after that sayd he to his disciples: let us goo into Iewry agayne.
8 Say to Him the disciples; Rabbi, just now were seeking You to stone the Jews, and again You are going there?
His disciples sayde vnto him. Master the Iewes lately sought meanes to stone the and wilt thou goo thyther agayne?
9 Answered Jesus; Surely twelve hours are there in the day? If anyone shall walk in the day, not he stumbles, because the light of the world this he sees.
Iesus answered: are ther not twelve houres in ye daye? Yf a man walke in ye daye he stombleth not because he seith the lyght of this worlde.
10 if however anyone shall walk in the night, he stumbles, because the light not is in him.
But yf a ma walke in ye nyght he stombleth because ther is no lyght in him.
11 These things He said and after this He says to them; Lazarus the friend of us has fallen asleep; but I go that I may awaken him.
This sayde he and after yt he sayde vnto the: oure frende Lazarus slepeth but I goo to wake him out of slepe.
12 Said therefore the disciples (to Him; *N+KO) Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will get well.
Then sayde his disciples: Lorde yf he slepe he shall do well ynough.
13 Had spoken however Jesus of the death of him; they however thought that of the rest of sleep He speaks.
How be it Iesus spake of his deeth: but they thought yt he had spoke of ye naturall slepe.
14 Then therefore said to them Jesus plainly; Lazarus has died.
Then sayde Iesus vnto the playnly Lazarus is deed
15 And I rejoice for sake of you, in order that you may believe, that not I was there; But let us go to him.
and I am glad for youre sakes yt I was not there because ye maye beleve. Neverthelesse let vs go vnto him.
16 Said therefore Thomas who is being named Didymus to the fellow disciples; Let us go also us that we may die with Him.
Then sayde Thomas which is called Dydimus vnto ye disciples: let vs also goo that we maye dye wt him
17 Having come therefore Jesus found him four already days having been in the tomb.
Then went Iesus and founde that he had lyne in his grave foure dayes already.
18 Was now Bethany near Jerusalem about away stadia fifteen.
Bethanie was nye vnto Ierusalem aboute. xv. furlonges of
19 (and *k) Many (now *no) of the Jews had come unto (concerning *k) Martha and Mary that they may console them concerning the brother (of them. *k)
and many of the Iewes were come to Martha and Mary to comforte them over their brother.
20 Therefore Martha, when she heard that Jesus is coming, met with Him; Mary however in the house was sitting.
Martha assone as she hearde yt Iesus was comynge went and met him: but Mary sate still in the housse.
21 Said then Martha to Jesus; Lord, if You had been here, not then would (be dead *N+kO) the brother of mine.
Then sayde Martha vnto Iesus: Lorde yf thou haddest bene here my brother had not bene deed:
22 Nevertheless even now I know that as much as maybe You may ask God will give You God.
but neverthelesse I knowe that whatsoever thou axest of God God will geve it the.
23 Says to her Jesus; Will rise again the brother of you.
Iesus sayde vnto her: Thy brother shall ryse agayne.
24 Says to him Martha; I know that he will rise again in the resurrection in the last day.
Martha sayde vnto him: I knowe that he shall ryse agayne in the resurreccion at the last daye.
25 Said to her Jesus; I myself am the resurrection and the life; the [one] believing in Me myself even if even if he shall die he will live,
Iesus sayde vnto her: I am the resurreccion and the lyfe: He that beleveth on me ye though he were deed yet shall he lyve.
26 and everyone who is living and believing in Me myself certainly not he shall die to the age. Believe you this? (aiōn g165)
And whosoever lyveth and belevest on me shall never dye. Beleveth thou this? (aiōn g165)
27 She says to Him; Yes Lord; I myself have believed that You yourself are the Christ the Son of God the [One] into the world coming.
She sayde vnto him: ye Lorde I beleve that thou arte Christ the sonne of god which shuld come into the worlde.
28 And (these things *N+kO) having said she went away and she called Mary the sister of her secretly having said; The Teacher is come and He calls you.
And assone as she had so sayde she went her waye and called Marie her sister secretly sayinge: The master is come and calleth for the
29 She (then *no) when she heard ([she] rose up *N+kO) quickly and (was coming *N+kO) to Him.
And she assone as she hearde that arose quickly and came vnto him.
30 Not yet now had come Jesus into the village, but was (still *no) in the place where met with Him Martha.
Iesus was not yet come into the toune: but was in the place where Martha met him.
31 The then Jews who are being with her in the house and consoling her, having seen Mary that soon she rose up and went out, followed after her, (having supposed *N+KO) that she is going to the tomb that she may weep there.
The Iewes then which were with her in the housse and comforted her when they sawe Mary that she rose vp hastely and went out folowed her saying: She goeth vnto the grave to wepe there.
32 Therefore Mary when she came to where was Jesus, having seen Him she fell of Him (at *N+kO) the feet saying to Him; Lord, if You had been here, not then would my have died brother.
Then when Mary was come where Iesus was and sawe him she fell doune at his fete sayinge vnto him: Lorde yf thou haddest bene here my brother had not bene deed.
33 Jesus therefore when He saw her weeping and the having come with her Jews weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and troubled Himself
When Iesus sawe her wepe and ye Iewes also wepe which came wt her he groned in ye sprete and was troubled in him selfe
34 And He said; Where have you laid him? They say to Him; Lord, do come and do see.
and sayde: Where have ye layed him? They sayde vnto him: Lorde come and se.
35 Wept Jesus.
And Iesus wept.
36 Were saying therefore the Jews; Behold how He was loving him!
Then sayde the Iewes: Beholde howe he loved him.
37 Some however of them said; Surely was able this [man] who having opened the eyes of the blind to have caused that also this one not may have died?
And some of the sayde: coulde not he which openned the eyes of the blynde have made also that this man shuld not have dyed?
38 Jesus therefore again being deeply moved in Himself He comes to the tomb; It was now a cave, and a stone was lying against it.
Iesus agayne groned in him selfe and came to the grave. It was a caue and a stone layde on it.
39 Says Jesus; do take away the stone. Says to Him the sister of the [one] (having deceased *N+kO) Martha; Lord, already he stinks; four days for it is.
And Iesus sayd: take ye awaye the stone. Martha the sister of him that was deed sayd vnto him: Lorde by this tyme he stinketh. For he hath bene deed foure dayes:
40 Says to her Jesus; Surely I said to you that if you shall believe you will see the glory of God?
Iesus sayde vnto her: Sayde I not vnto the yt if thou didest beleve thou shuldest se ye glory of God.
41 They took away therefore the stone (where was who having died laid. *K) Now Jesus lifted [His] eyes upwards and said; Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.
Then they toke awaye ye stone from ye place where the deed was layde. And Iesus lyfte vp his eyes and sayde: Father I thanke the because that thou hast hearde me.
42 I myself and knew that always Me You hear; but on account of the crowd which already standing around I said [it], that they may believe that You yourself Me sent.
I wot that thou hearest me all wayes: but because of the people that stonde by I sayde it yt they maye beleve that thou hast sent me.
43 And these things having said in a voice loud He cried out; Lazarus, come forth.
And when he thus had spoken he cryed wt a loud voyce. Lazarus come forthe.
44 (and *k) Came forth the [one] having died bound the feet and the hands with linen strips, and the face of him in a headcloth had bound about. Says to them Jesus: do unbind him and do allow him to go.
And he that was deed came forth bounde hand and fote with grave bondes and his face was bounde with a napkin. Iesus sayde vnto the: loowse him and let him goo.
45 Many therefore of the Jews having come to Mary and having seen (what things *NK+o) He did (Jesus *k) believed in Him.
Then many of the Iewes which came to Mary and had sene the thinges which Iesus dyd beleved on him.
46 some however of them went to the Pharisees and told to them what did Jesus.
But some of them went their wayes to the Pharises and tolde them what Iesus had done.
47 Gathered therefore the chief priests and the Pharisees a council and they were saying; What are we to do? For this man many does signs!
Then gadered the hye prestes and the Pharises a counsell and sayde: what do we? This ma doeth many miracles.
48 If we shall let him alone Him like this, all will believe in Him, and will come the Romans and will take away of us both the place and the nation.
Yf we let him scape thus all men will beleve on him and ye Romaynes shall come and take awaye oure countre and the people.
49 One however certain of them Caiaphas, high priest being on the year same, said to them; You yourselves not know no [thing],
And one of them named Cayphas which was the hieprest yt same yeare sayde vnto them: Ye perceave nothinge at all
50 nor (consider you *N+kO) that it is profitable (for you *N+KO) that one man may die for the people, and not all the nation may perish.
nor yet consider that it is expedient for vs that one man dye for the people and not that all the people perisshe.
51 This now from himself not he said, but high priest being on the year that he prophesied that was about Jesus to die for the nation,
This spake he not of him selfe but beinge hye preste that same yeare he prophesied that Iesus shulde dye for the people
52 and not for the nation only but that also the children of God those scattered He may gather together into one.
and not for the people only but that he shuld gader to geder in one the chyldren of God which were scattered abroode.
53 From that [very] therefore day (they plotted *N+kO) that they may kill Him.
From that daye forth they held a counsell to geder for to put him to deeth.
54 Therefore Jesus no longer no longer publicly was walking among the Jews, but went away from there into the region near the wilderness to Ephraim being named a city, And there And there (He stayed *N+kO) with the disciples (of him. *k)
Iesus therfore walked no more opely amoge the Iewes: but wet his waye thence vnto a coutre nye to a wildernes into a cite called Ephraim and there hauted with his disciples.
55 Was now near the Passover of the Jews, and went up many to Jerusalem out of the region before the Passover so that they may purify themselves.
And the Iewes ester was nye at hand and many went out of the countre vp to Ierusalem before the ester to purify them selves.
56 They were seeking therefore Jesus and were saying among one another in the temple already standing; What does it seem to you, that certainly not He may come to the feast?
Then sought they for Iesus and spake bitwene the selves as they stode in the teple: What thinke ye seynge he cometh not to the feast.
57 Had given now (also *k) the chief priests and the Pharisees (commands *N+KO) that if anyone shall know where He is he shall show [it], so that they may seize Him.
The hye prestes and Pharises had geven a comaundemet that yf eny man knew where he were he shuld shewe it that they myght take him.
