Yoḥanan (John) 11
11
1And a certain one was sick, El‛azar from Bĕyth Anyah, the village of Miryam and her sister Martha.
2(Now it was Miryam who anointed the Master with perfume and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother El‛azar was sick).
3Therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, “Master, see, he whom You love is sick.”
4But when יהושע heard, He said, “This sickness is not unto death, but for the esteem of Elohim, so that the Son of Elohim might be esteemed by it.”
5Now יהושע loved Martha and her sister and El‛azar.
6Therefore, when He heard that he was sick, then indeed He stayed at the place where He was, two more days.
7Then after this He said to the taught ones, “Let us go back to Yehuḏah.”
8The taught ones said to Him, “Rabbi, the Yehuḏim were but now seeking to stone You, and are You going back there?”
9יהושע answered, “Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
10But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.
11He said this, and after that He said to them, “Our friend El‛azar has fallen asleep, but I am going there, to wake him up.”
12Therefore the taught ones said to Him, “Master, if he has fallen asleep he shall recover.”
13But יהושע had spoken about his death, whereas they thought that He spoke of taking rest in sleep.
14So then יהושע said to them plainly, “El‛azar has died.
15And for your sake I am glad I was not there, in order for you to believe. But let us go to him.
16T’oma, who is called the Twin, then said to his fellow taught ones, “Let us also go, so that we die with Him.”
17Therefore, when יהושע arrived, He found that he had already been four days in the tomb.
18Now Bĕyth Anyah was near Yerushalayim, about fifteen stadia#About 3 kilometres or 2 miles. away.
19And many of the Yehuḏim had come to Martha and Miryam, to comfort them concerning their brother.
20Martha, then, when she heard that יהושע was coming, met Him, but Miryam was sitting in the house.
21Martha, then, said to יהושע, “Master, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.
22But even now I know that whatever You might ask of Elohim, Elohim shall give You.
23יהושע said to her, “Your brother shall rise again.”
24Martha said to Him, “I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
25יהושע said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he dies, he shall live.
26And everyone that is living and believing in Me shall never die at all. Do you believe this?
27She said to Him, “Yes, Master, I believe that You are the Messiah, the Son of Elohim, who is coming into the world.”
28And having said this she went away and called her sister Miryam secretly, saying, “The Teacher is here and calls you.”
29When she heard, she rose up quickly and came to Him.
30And יהושע had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha met Him.
31Therefore the Yehuḏim who were with her in the house, and were comforting her, when they saw that Miryam rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there.”
32Miryam, therefore, when she came where יהושע was, and saw Him, she fell down at His feet, saying to Him, “Master, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.”
33יהושע, therefore, when He saw her weeping, and the Yehuḏim who came with her weeping, He groaned in the spirit and was troubled,
34and said, “Where have you laid him?” They said to Him, “Master, come and see.”
35יהושע wept.
36The Yehuḏim therefore said, “See how He loved him!”
37And some of them said, “Was this One, who opened the eyes of the blind, not also able to prevent this one from dying?”
38יהושע, therefore, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
39יהושע said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of him who had died, said to Him, “Master, already he smells, for it is four days.”
40יהושע said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you believe, you shall see the esteem of Elohim?”
41So they took away the stone where the dead man was laid. And יהושע lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.
42And I know that You always hear Me, but because of the crowd standing by I said this, in order that they believe that You sent Me.
43And when He had said this, He cried with a loud voice, “El‛azar, come out!”
44And he who died came out bound feet and hands with wrappings, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. יהושע said to them, “Loosen him, and let him go.”
45Therefore many of the Yehuḏim who had come to Miryam, and had seen what יהושע did, believed in Him.
46But some of them went away to the Pharisees and told them what יהושע did.
47So the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said, “What shall we do? Because this Man does many signs.
48If we let Him alone like this, they all shall believe in Him, and the Romans shall come and take away from us both our place and nation.
49And one of them, Qayapha, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know naught,
50neither do you consider that it is better for us that one man die for the people than that the entire nation should perish.”
51But he did not say this from himself, but being high priest that year he prophesied that יהושע was about to die for the nation,
52and not for the nation only, but to gather together into one the children of Elohim who were scattered abroad.
53So from that day on they plotted to kill Him.
54יהושע therefore no longer went openly among the Yehuḏim, but went from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephrayim, and remained there with His taught ones.
55Now the Pĕsaḥ of the Yehuḏim was near, and many went from the country up to Yerushalayim before the Pĕsaḥ, to set themselves apart.
56And so they were seeking יהושע, and spoke among one another, standing in the Set-apart Place, “What do you think? Is He not coming to the festival at all?”
57And both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if anyone knew where He was, he should disclose it, in order for them to seize Him.

John 11
1¶ Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
2(It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair whose brother Lazarus was sick.)
3Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.
4When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.
5Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
6When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.
7Then after that he said to his disciples, Let us go into Judea again.
8 His disciples said unto him, Rabbi, the Jews of late sought to stone thee, and goest thou there again?
9Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble because he sees the light of this world.
10But he who walks in the night stumbles because there is no light in him.
11Having said that he said unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleeps, but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.
12Then his disciples said, Lord, if he sleeps, he shall be saved.
13But Jesus had spoken of his death, and they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
14Then Jesus said unto them plainly, Lazarus has died.
15And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, in order that ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.
16Then Thomas said, who is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us go also, that we may die with him.
17¶ Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.
18Now Bethany was near unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off;
19and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them concerning their brother.
20Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him; but Mary sat still in the house.
21Then Martha said unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother would not have died.
22But I know that even now whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it unto thee.
23Jesus said unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.
24Martha said unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection in the last day.
25Jesus said unto her, I AM the resurrection and the life; he that believes in me, though he is dead, yet shall he live;
26and whosoever lives and believes in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
27She said unto him, Yes, Lord, I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, who should come into the world.
28And having said this, she went away and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calls for thee.
29As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly and came unto him.
30(Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.)
31Then the Jews who were with her in the house and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goes unto the grave to weep there.
32Then when Mary was come where Jesus was and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother would not have died.
33¶ When Jesus therefore saw her weeping and the Jews also weeping who came with her, he became enraged in the Spirit and stirred himself up
34and said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.
35Jesus wept.
36Then the Jews said, Behold how he loved him!
37And some of them said, Could not this man, who opened the eyes of the blind, have also caused that this man should not have died?
38Jesus therefore, becoming enraged again in himself, came to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.
39Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that had died, said unto him, Lord, by this time he stinks, for he has been dead four days.
40Jesus said unto her, Did I not say unto thee that if thou wouldest believe thou shalt see the glory of God?
41Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus, lifting up his eyes, said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
42And I knew that thou hearest me always, but because of the people who stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
43And having said these things, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.
44Then he that had been dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus said unto them, Loose him, and let him go.
45¶ Then many of the Jews who had come to Mary and had seen what Jesus did believed on him.
46But some of them went unto the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.
47Then the high priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said, What shall we do? for this man does many signs.
48If we let him thus alone, everyone will believe on him, and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and the nation.
49And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all
50nor consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation be lost.
51And this he spoke not of himself; but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation;
52and not for that nation only, but that he should also gather together in one the sons of God that were scattered abroad.
53So that from that day forth they took counsel together to kill him.
54Jesus therefore no longer walked openly among the Jews, but went from there unto a country near to the wilderness into a city called Ephraim and there continued with his disciples.
55And the passover of the Jews was now at hand, and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover to purify themselves;
56and they sought for Jesus and spoke among themselves as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?
57Now both the high priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that if anyone knew where he was he should show it, that they might take him.
