1Erat autem quidam languens Lazarus a Bethania, de castello Mariæ et Marthæ sororis ejus.
1At this time a man named Lazarus was sick. He lived in Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
2(Maria autem erat quæ unxit Dominum unguento, et extersit pedes ejus capillis suis: cujus frater Lazarus infirmabatur.)
2(Mary, whose brother Lazarus was sick, was to anoint the Lord with perfume and wipe His feet with her hair.)
3Miserunt ergo sorores ejus ad eum dicentes: Domine, ecce quem amas infirmatur.
3So the sisters sent word to Jesus, “Lord, the one You love is sick.”
4Audiens autem Jesus dixit eis: Infirmitas hæc non est ad mortem, sed pro gloria Dei, ut glorificetur Filius Dei per eam.
4When Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”
5Diligebat autem Jesus Martham, et sororem ejus Mariam, et Lazarum.
5Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
6Ut ergo audivit quia infirmabatur, tunc quidem mansit in eodem loco duobus diebus;
6So on hearing that Lazarus was sick, He stayed where He was for two days,
7deinde post hæc dixit discipulis suis: Eamus in Judæam iterum.
7and then He said to the disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.”
8Dicunt ei discipuli: Rabbi, nunc quærebant te Judæi lapidare, et iterum vadis illuc?
8“Rabbi,” they replied, “the Jews just tried to stone You, and You are going back there?”
9Respondit Jesus: Nonne duodecim sunt horæ diei? Si quis ambulaverit in die, non offendit, quia lucem hujus mundi videt:
9Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? If anyone walks in the daytime, he will not stumble, because he sees by the light of this world.
10si autem ambulaverit in nocte, offendit, quia lux non est in eo.
10But if anyone walks at night, he will stumble, because he has no light.”
11Hæc ait, et post hæc dixit eis: Lazarus amicus noster dormit: sed vado ut a somno excitem eum.
11After He had said this, He told them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there to wake him up.”
12Dixerunt ergo discipuli ejus: Domine, si dormit, salvus erit.
12His disciples replied, “Lord, if he is sleeping, he will get better.”
13Dixerat autem Jesus de morte ejus: illi autem putaverunt quia de dormitione somni diceret.
13They thought that Jesus was talking about actual sleep, but He was speaking about the death of Lazarus.
14Tunc ergo Jesus dixit eis manifeste: Lazarus mortuus est:
14So Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead,
15et gaudeo propter vos, ut credatis, quoniam non eram ibi, sed eamus ad eum.
15and for your sake I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.”
16Dixit ergo Thomas, qui dicitur Didymus, ad condiscipulos: Eamus et nos, ut moriamur cum eo.
16Then Thomas called Didymus said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, so that we may die with Him.”
17Venit itaque Jesus: et invenit eum quatuor dies jam in monumento habentem.
17When Jesus arrived, He found that Lazarus had already spent four days in the tomb.
18(Erat autem Bethania juxta Jerosolymam quasi stadiis quindecim.)
18Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, a little less than two miles away,
19Multi autem ex Judæis venerant ad Martham et Mariam, ut consolarentur eas de fratre suo.
19and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them in the loss of their brother.
20Martha ergo ut audivit quia Jesus venit, occurrit illi: Maria autem domi sedebat.
20So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet Him; but Mary stayed at home.
21Dixit ergo Martha ad Jesum: Domine, si fuisses hic, frater meus non fuisset mortuus:
21Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.
22sed et nunc scio quia quæcumque poposceris a Deo, dabit tibi Deus.
22But even now I know that God will give You whatever You ask of Him.”
23Dicit illi Jesus: Resurget frater tuus.
23“Your brother will rise again,” Jesus told her.
24Dicit ei Martha: Scio quia resurget in resurrectione in novissimo die.
24Martha replied, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
25Dixit ei Jesus: Ego sum resurrectio et vita: qui credit in me, etiam si mortuus fuerit, vivet:
25Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me will live, even though he dies.
26et omnis qui vivit et credit in me, non morietur in æternum. Credis hoc?
26And everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this?”
27Ait illi: Utique Domine, ego credidi quia tu es Christus, Filius Dei vivi, qui in hunc mundum venisti.
27“Yes, Lord,” she answered, “I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.”
28Et cum hæc dixisset, abiit, et vocavit Mariam sororem suam silentio, dicens: Magister adest, et vocat te.
28After Martha had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside to tell her, “The Teacher is here and is asking for you.”
29Illa ut audivit, surgit cito, et venit ad eum;
29And when Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to Him.
30nondum enim venerat Jesus in castellum: sed erat adhuc in illo loco, ubi occurrerat ei Martha.
30Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met Him.
31Judæi 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.
31When the Jews who were in the house consoling Mary saw how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there.
32Maria ergo, cum venisset ubi erat Jesus, videns eum, cecidit ad pedes ejus, et dicit ei: Domine, si fuisses hic, non esset mortuus frater meus.
32When Mary came to Jesus and saw Him, she fell at His feet and said, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.”
33Jesus ergo, ut vidit eam plorantem, et Judæos, qui venerant cum ea, plorantes, infremuit spiritu, et turbavit seipsum,
33When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come with her also weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.
34et dixit: Ubi posuistis eum? Dicunt ei: Domine, veni, et vide.
34“Where have you put him?” He asked. “Come and see, Lord,” they answered.
35Et lacrimatus est Jesus.
35Jesus wept.
36Dixerunt ergo Judæi: Ecce quomodo amabat eum.
36Then the Jews said, “See how He loved him!”
37Quidam autem ex ipsis dixerunt: Non poterat hic, qui aperuit oculos cæci nati, facere ut hic non moreretur?
37But some of them asked, “Could not this man who opened the eyes of the blind also have kept Lazarus from dying?”
38Jesus ergo rursum fremens in semetipso, venit ad monumentum. Erat autem spelunca, et lapis superpositus erat ei.
38Jesus, once again deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance.
39Ait Jesus: Tollite lapidem. Dicit ei Martha, soror ejus qui mortuus fuerat: Domine, jam fœtet, quatriduanus est enim.
39“Take away the stone,” Jesus said. “Lord, by now he stinks,” said Martha, the sister of the dead man. “It has already been four days.”
40Dicit ei Jesus: Nonne dixi tibi quoniam si credideris, videbis gloriam Dei?
40Jesus replied, “Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?”
41Tulerunt ergo lapidem: Jesus autem, elevatis sursum oculis, dixit: Pater, gratias ago tibi quoniam audisti me.
41So they took away the stone. Then Jesus lifted His eyes upward and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.
42Ego autem sciebam quia semper me audis, sed propter populum qui circumstat, dixi: ut credant quia tu me misisti.
42I knew that You always hear Me, but I say this for the benefit of the people standing here, so they may believe that You sent Me.”
43Hæc cum dixisset, voce magna clamavit: Lazare, veni foras.
43After Jesus had said this, He called out in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”
44Et statim prodiit qui fuerat mortuus, ligatus pedes, et manus institis, et facies illius sudario erat ligata. Dixit eis Jesus: Solvite eum et sinite abire.
44The man who had been dead came out with his hands and feet bound in strips of linen, and his face wrapped in a cloth. “Unwrap him and let him go,” Jesus told them.
45Multi ergo ex Judæis, qui venerant ad Mariam, et Martham, et viderant quæ fecit Jesus, crediderunt in eum.
45Therefore many of the Jews who had come to Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, believed in Him.
46Quidam autem ex ipsis abierunt ad pharisæos, et dixerunt eis quæ fecit Jesus.
46But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.
47Collegerunt ergo pontifices et pharisæi concilium, et dicebant: Quid faciamus, quia hic homo multa signa facit?
47Then the chief priests and Pharisees convened the Sanhedrin and said, “What are we to do? This man is performing many signs.
48Si dimittimus eum sic, omnes credent in eum, et venient Romani, et tollent nostrum locum, et gentem.
48If we let Him go on like this, everyone will believe in Him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”
49Unus autem ex ipsis, Caiphas nomine, cum esset pontifex anni illius, dixit eis: Vos nescitis quidquam,
49But one of them, named Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all!
50nec cogitatis quia expedit vobis ut unus moriatur homo pro populo, et non tota gens pereat.
50You do not realize that it is better for you that one man die for the people than that the whole nation perish.”
51Hoc autem a semetipso non dixit: sed cum esset pontifex anni illius, prophetavit, quod Jesus moriturus erat pro gente,
51Caiaphas did not say this on his own. Instead, as high priest that year, he was prophesying that Jesus would die for the nation,
52et non tantum pro gente, sed ut filios Dei, qui erant dispersi, congregaret in unum.
52and not only for the nation, but also for the scattered children of God, to gather them together into one.
53Ab illo ergo die cogitaverunt ut interficerent eum.
53So from that day on they plotted to kill Him.
54Jesus ergo jam non in palam ambulabat apud Judæos, sed abiit in regionem juxta desertum, in civitatem quæ dicitur Ephrem, et ibi morabatur cum discipulis suis.
54As a result, Jesus no longer went about publicly among the Jews, but He withdrew to a town called Ephraim in an area near the wilderness. And He stayed there with the disciples.
55Proximum autem erat Pascha Judæorum, et ascenderunt multi Jerosolymam de regione ante Pascha, ut sanctificarent seipsos.
55Now the Jewish Passover was near, and many people went up from the country to Jerusalem to purify themselves before the Passover.
56Quærebant ergo Jesum, et colloquebantur ad invicem, in templo stantes: Quid putatis, quia non venit ad diem festum? Dederant autem pontifices et pharisæi mandatum ut si quis cognoverit ubi sit, indicet, ut apprehendant eum.
56They kept looking for Jesus and asking one another as they stood in the temple courts, “What do you think? Will He come to the feast at all?”

57But the chief priests and Pharisees had given orders that anyone who knew where He was must report it, so that they could arrest Him.
