K. Jezus pīceļ nu myrūnim Lazari.
1 Lazars nu Betanijas, Marijas un jōs mōsas Martas mīsteņa, beja slyms. 2 Marija beja tei, kura Kungu apsvaideja ar smōrdeigu eleju un ar sovim motim apslauceja Jō kōjas. Tōs brōļs Lazars beja slyms. 3 Mōsas nūsyuteja Jam paziņōtu: Kungs, raug, tys, kuru Tu mīļoj, ir slyms. 4 Tū izdzērdis, Jezus saceja: Šitei slimeiba navā uz nōvi, bet gon dēļ Dīva gūda, ka caur tū tyktu slaveits Dīva Dāls.
5 Jezus mīļōja Martu, jōs mōsu (Mariju) un Lazari. 6 Lai gon izdzērda, ka slymoj, tūmār palyka tamā vītā vēļ pat divi dīnas. 7 Pēc tam Jys saceja sovim mōceklim: Īsim otkon uz Judeu. 8 Mōcekli saceja: Mōceitōj, jūdi vēļ naseņ gribēja Tevi nūmātōt ar akminim, un Tu otkon uz turīni īsi? 9 Jezus atbiļdēja: Vai tad dīna navā divpadsmit stuņžu? Kas dīnā īt, tys nasadūrsteis, jo jys redz šō pasauļa gaismu. 10 Bet kas naktī ītu, tys gon dūrsteitūs, jo jamā navā gaismas. 11 Tū pasacejis, Jys jim runōja tōļōk: Myusu draugs Lazars aizmyga, Es īšu jō nu mīga uzmūdynōtu. 12 Mōcekli Jam saceja: Kungs, jo aizmyga, tad byus vasals. 13 Jezus runōja par jō nōvi, bet jī dūmōja, ka runoj par parostū mīgu. 14 Tad Jezus jim saceja atklōti: Lazars nūmyra. 15 Un jyusu dēļ, ka jyus tycātu, Es prīcojūs, ka tur nabeju. Īsim uz jū.
16 Tomass, Dydymus sauktais, saceja citim mōceklim: Īsim ari mes, lai ar Jū reizē nūmērtu.
17 Jezus, aizgōjis, atroda jū jau četras dīnas kopā guļūt. 18 Betanija nu Jeruzalemas beja daudz moz pīcpadsmit stadiju attōļumā. 19 Tōdēļ uz Martu un Mariju atgōja daudzi jūdu, lai brōļa dēļ jōs prīcynōtu.
20 Izdzērduse par Jezus atīšonu, Marta steidzēs Jam prīškā, bet Marija palyka sātā. 21 Marta saceja Jezum: Kungs, jo Tu šite byutu bejis, muns brōļs nabyutu nūmiris, 22 bet ari tagad zynu: Kū tik vīn nu Dīva palyugsi, Dīvs Tev dūs. 23 Jezus jai saceja: Tovs brōļs ceļsīs augšan. 24 Marta atbiļdēja: Es zynu, ka jys pīsaceļs augšamceļšonā, postora dīnā.
25 Jezus jai saceja: Es asmu augšamceļšonōs un dzeive. Kas ikš Manis tic, tys, lai ari nūmiris byutu, dzeivōs; 26 un ikvīns, kurs dzeivoj un tic ikš Manis, namērs myužam. Vai tu šytam tici? 27 Jei atbiļdēja: Jā, Kungs, es tycu, ka Tu esi Kristus, Dzeivō Dīva Dāls, kuram vajadzēja uz šū pasauli atīt. 28 Tad jei aizgōjuse pasauce sovu mōsu Mariju un kluseņom jai saceja: Mōceitōjs ir šite un tevis sauc.
29 Šytū izdzērduse, jei tyuleņ pīsacēle un ōtri aizasteidze pi Jō, 30 jo Jezus vēļ nabeja mīsteņā īgōjis, bet uzaturēja tamā pat vītā, kur Jū satyka Marta. 31 Jūdi, kas reizē ar jū mōjōs sēdēja un jū mīrynōja, radzādami, ka Marija ōtri pīsacēle un izgōja ōrā, dūmōja, ka jei īt pi kopa raudōtu, un izgōja jai pakaļ. 32 Marija, atgōjuse uz turīni, kur beja Jezus, un, Jū īraudzejuse, pakryta pi Jō kōjom un Jam saceja: Kungs, jo Tu šite byutu bejis, muns brōļs nabyutu nūmiris. 33 Jezus, radzādams jū un jūdus, kas ar jū beja atgōjuši, raužūt, tyka aizgrōbts un pats sevī sakustynōts. 34 Jys pavaicōja: Kur jū nūlykot? Jam atbiļdēja: Kungs, ej un apskot. 35 Jezus aizraudōja. 36 Tad jūdi saceja: Raug, kai jū ir mīļōjis. 37 Bet daži saceja: Vai tad Jys, kas oklajam atdareja acis, navarēja padareit, ka jys nanūmērtu?
38 Nu jauna sevī sakustynōts, Jezus aizgōja uz kopu; tys beja olā, un vērs jō gulēja akmiņs. 39 Jezus saceja: Atvelit nūst akmini. Bet Marta, nūmyrušō mōsa, saceja: Kungs, nu jō jau īt smoka, tadei jau catūrta dīna, kai nūmyra. 40 Jezus tai atbiļdēja: Vai tad Es tev nasaceju: Jo tu ticēsi, redzēsi Dīva gūdu? 41 Tai jī atvēle akmini. Jezus, pacēlis acis, lyudzēs: Tāvs, Es pateicu Tev, ka Tu Mani izklauseji. 42 Es gon zynu, ka vysod Mani izklausi; šytū Es soku apleikstōvūšūs ļaužu dēļ, lai jī tycātu, ka Tu Mani esi syutejis. 43 Pēc šytūs vōrdu Jys sauce styprā bolsā: Lazar, ej ōrā! 44 Nūmyrušais, bantem sasītom rūkom un kōjom un ar dvīli apsagtu vaigu, izgōja ōrā. Jezus jim saceja: Izraisit jū un ļaunit īt.
45 Daudzejī jūdi, kas beja pi Marijas (un Martas) atgōjuši un redzēja, kū (Jezus) padareja, Jam īticēja. 46 Bet citi, aizgōjuši uz farizejim, izstōsteja tim, kū Jezus padareja.
Augstōs padūmes lāmums.
47 Tad goreidznīku prīkšnīki un farizeji sasauce augstū padūmi un saceja: Kas mums doroms? Šytys Cylvāks tadei dora daudzi breinumu. 48 Jo mes jū tai palaissim, tad Jam īticēs visi; tad atīs romīši un atjims nu mums i zemi, i tautu. 49 Vīns nu tim, Kaifass vōrdā, kurs tū god beja par vērsgoreidznīku, jim saceja: Jyus nikō ni zynot, 50 ni apdūmojat, mums tadei byus lobōk, ka par tautu nūmērst vīns cylvāks, na kai vysa tauta iznykst. 51 Bet šytō jys pats nu sevis napasaceja, jys, kai tō gods vērsgoreidznīks, pravītōja, ka Jezus nūmērs par tautu. 52 Un Jam vajadzēja mērt na tikai par tautu vīn, bet ari, lai sakūpōtu un savīnōtu izkaiseitūs Dīva bārnus.
53 Nu tōs dīnas jim beja nūlamts Jū nūnōvēt.
54 Tōpēc Jezus vairs atklōti storp jūdim nastaigōja; Jys aizgōja uz apgobolu, kas ir tyvu pi tuksneša, uz mīsteņu, sauktu Efrem, un tur reizē ar sovim mōceklim apstōja.
55 Jūdu Leldines gōja klōtu. Tai tad daudzeji nu apkōrtnes pyrms Leldinem aizgōja uz Jeruzalemu sevis škeisteitu. 56 Jī meklēja Jezus un, svētneicā byudami, cyts cyta sovstarpeigi vaicōja: Kai jums līkās? Vai tad Jys pavysam uz svātkim naatīs?
57 Vērsgoreidznīki un farizeji beja pavēlējuši: Jo kas izzynōtu, kur Jys apstōja, lai tyuleņ paziņoj, ka jī varātu Jū apcītynōt.
The Death of Lazarus
1 A man named Lazarus, who lived in Bethany, became sick. Bethany was the town where Mary and her sister Martha lived. ( 2 This Mary was the one who poured the perfume on the Lord's feet and wiped them with her hair; it was her brother Lazarus who was sick.) 3 The sisters sent Jesus a message: “Lord, your dear friend is sick.”
4 When Jesus heard it, he said, “The final result of this sickness will not be the death of Lazarus; this has happened in order to bring glory to God, and it will be the means by which the Son of God will receive glory.”
5 Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. 6 Yet when he received the news that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was for two more days. 7 Then he said to the disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.”
8 “Teacher,” the disciples answered, “just a short time ago the people there wanted to stone you; and are you planning to go back?”
9 Jesus said, “A day has twelve hours, doesn't it? So those who walk in broad daylight do not stumble, for they see the light of this world. 10 But if they walk during the night they stumble, because they have no light.” 11 Jesus said this and then added, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I will go and wake him up.”
12 The disciples answered, “If he is asleep, Lord, he will get well.”
13 Jesus meant that Lazarus had died, but they thought he meant natural sleep. 14 So Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead, 15 but for your sake I am glad that I was not with him, so that you will believe. Let us go to him.”
16 Thomas (called the Twin) said to his fellow disciples, “Let us all go along with the Teacher, so that we may die with him!”
Jesus the Resurrection and the Life
17 When Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had been buried four days before. 18 Bethany was less than two miles from Jerusalem, 19 and many Judeans had come to see Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother's death.
20 When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary stayed in the house. 21 Martha said to Jesus, “If you had been here, Lord, my brother would not have died! 22 But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask him for.”
23 “Your brother will rise to life,” Jesus told her.
24 “I know,” she replied, “that he will rise to life on the last day.”
25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me will live, even though they die; 26 and those who live and believe in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
27 “Yes, Lord!” she answered. “I do believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.”
Jesus Weeps
28 After Martha said this, she went back and called her sister Mary privately. “The Teacher is here,” she told her, “and is asking for you.” 29 When Mary heard this, she got up and hurried out to meet him. ( 30 Jesus had not yet arrived in the village, but was still in the place where Martha had met him.) 31 The people who were in the house with Mary comforting her followed her when they saw her get up and hurry out. They thought that she was going to the grave to weep there.
32 Mary arrived where Jesus was, and as soon as she saw him, she fell at his feet. “Lord,” she said, “if you had been here, my brother would not have died!”
33 Jesus saw her weeping, and he saw how the people with her were weeping also; his heart was touched, and he was deeply moved. 34 “Where have you buried him?” he asked them.
“Come and see, Lord,” they answered.
35 Jesus wept. 36 “See how much he loved him!” the people said.
37 But some of them said, “He gave sight to the blind man, didn't he? Could he not have kept Lazarus from dying?”
Lazarus Is Brought to Life
38 Deeply moved once more, Jesus went to the tomb, which was a cave with a stone placed at the entrance. 39 “Take the stone away!” Jesus ordered.
Martha, the dead man's sister, answered, “There will be a bad smell, Lord. He has been buried four days!”
40 Jesus said to her, “Didn't I tell you that you would see God's glory if you believed?” 41 They took the stone away. Jesus looked up and said, “I thank you, Father, that you listen to me. 42 I know that you always listen to me, but I say this for the sake of the people here, so that they will believe that you sent me.” 43 After he had said this, he called out in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!” 44 He came out, his hands and feet wrapped in grave cloths, and with a cloth around his face. “Untie him,” Jesus told them, “and let him go.”
The Plot against Jesus
(Matthew 26.1-5Mark 14.1Mark 2Luke 22.1Luke 2)45 Many of the people who had come to visit Mary saw what Jesus did, and they believed in him. 46 But some of them returned to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done. 47 So the Pharisees and the chief priests met with the Council and said, “What shall we do? Look at all the miracles this man is performing! 48 If we let him go on in this way, everyone will believe in him, and the Roman authorities will take action and destroy our Temple and our nation!”
49 One of them, named Caiaphas, who was High Priest that year, said, “What fools you are! 50 Don't you realize that it is better for you to have one man die for the people, instead of having the whole nation destroyed?” 51 Actually, he did not say this of his own accord; rather, as he was High Priest that year, he was prophesying that Jesus was going to die for the Jewish people, 52 and not only for them, but also to bring together into one body all the scattered people of God.
53 From that day on the Jewish authorities made plans to kill Jesus. 54 So Jesus did not travel openly in Judea, but left and went to a place near the desert, to a town named Ephraim, where he stayed with the disciples.
55 The time for the Passover Festival was near, and many people went up from the country to Jerusalem to perform the ritual of purification before the festival. 56 They were looking for Jesus, and as they gathered in the Temple, they asked one another, “What do you think? Surely he will not come to the festival, will he?” 57 The chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where Jesus was, he must report it, so that they could arrest him.
