¹Aga keegi mees oli haige, Laatsarus Betaaniast, Maarja ja tema õe Marta külast;

¹Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Mary and her sister, Martha.

²Maarja oli aga see, kes võidis Issandat salviga ja kuivatas ta jalgu oma juustega; tema vend Laatsarus oligi haige.

²It was that Mary who had anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother, Lazarus, was sick.

³Õed saatsid nüüd Jeesusele sõna: 'Issand, vaata, su sõber on haige.'

³The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, “Lord, behold, he for whom you have great affection is sick.”

⁴Seda kuulnud, ütles Jeesus: 'See haigus ei ole surmaks, vaid Jumala austuseks, et selle läbi austataks Jumala Poega.'

⁴But when Jesus heard it, he said, “This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that God’s Son may be glorified by it.”

⁵Aga Jeesus armastas Martat ja ta õde ja Laatsarust.

⁵Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

⁶Kui ta nüüd kuulis, et Laatsarus on haige, jäi ta veel kaheks päevaks sinna, kus ta oli.

⁶When therefore he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days in the place where he was.

⁷Pärast seda ütles ta jüngritele: 'Läki jälle Juudamaale!'

⁷Then after this he said to the disciples, “Let’s go into Judea again.”

⁸Jüngrid ütlesid talle: 'Rabi, alles nüüdsama otsisid juudid võimalust sind kividega surnuks visata, ja sina lähed jälle sinna?'

⁸The disciples told him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just trying to stone you, and are you going there again?”

⁹Jeesus vastas: 'Eks päeval ole kaksteist tundi? Kui keegi kõnnib päeval, siis ta ei komista, sest ta näeb selle maailma valgust.

⁹Jesus answered, “Aren’t there twelve hours of daylight? If a man walks in the day, he doesn’t stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

¹⁰Kui aga keegi kõnnib öösel, siis ta komistab, sest temas ei ole valgust.'

¹⁰ But if a man walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light isn’t in him.”

¹¹Nii ta rääkis ja jätkas siis: 'Meie sõber Laatsarus magab, kuid ma lähen teda unest äratama.'

¹¹He said these things, and after that, he said to them, “Our friend, Lazarus, has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep.”

¹²Siis ütlesid jüngrid talle: 'Issand, kui ta magab, siis ta saab terveks.'

¹²The disciples therefore said, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.”

¹³Ent Jeesus oli kõnelnud ta surmast, nemad aga arvasid, et ta kõneleb unne suikumisest.

¹³Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep.

¹⁴Nüüd siis ütles Jeesus neile täie selgusega: 'Laatsarus on surnud,

¹⁴So Jesus said to them plainly then, “Lazarus is dead.

¹⁵ja ma rõõmustan teie pärast, et mind ei olnud seal, et te võiksite uskuda. Kuid läki tema juurde!'

¹⁵ I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless, let’s go to him.”

¹⁶Siis ütles Toomas, keda nimetatakse Kaksikuks, kaasjüngritele: 'Lähme meiegi, et temaga koos surra!'

¹⁶Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, “Didymus” means “Twin” said to his fellow disciples, “Let’s go also, that we may die with him.”

¹⁷Kui nüüd Jeesus sinna jõudis, leidis ta, et Laatsarus oli juba neli päeva hauas olnud.

¹⁷So when Jesus came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already.

¹⁸Betaania on aga Jeruusalemma lähedal, umbes paari miili kaugusel,

¹⁸Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia 15 stadia is about 2.8 kilometers or 1.7 miles away.

¹⁹ja palju juute oli tulnud linnast Marta ja Maarja juurde neid lohutama venna pärast.

¹⁹Many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.

²⁰Kui nüüd Marta kuulis, et Jeesus tuleb, läks ta kohe talle vastu, aga Maarja jäi koju.

²⁰Then when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary stayed in the house.

²¹Siis ütles Marta Jeesusele: 'Issand, kui sina oleksid olnud siin, siis mu vend ei oleks surnud.

²¹Therefore Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.

²²Aga ma tean nüüdki, et Jumal annab sulle, mida sa iganes Jumalalt palud.'

²²Even now I know that, whatever you ask of God, God will give you.”

²³Jeesus ütles talle: 'Sinu vend tõuseb üles.'

²³Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”

²⁴Marta ütles talle: 'Ma tean, et ta tõuseb üles ülestõusmises viimsel päeval.'

²⁴Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”

²⁵Jeesus ütles talle: 'Mina olen ülestõusmine ja elu. Kes minusse usub, see elab, isegi kui ta sureb.

²⁵Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.

²⁶Ükski, kes elab ja usub minusse, ei sure alatiseks. Kas sa usud seda?'

²⁶ Whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?”

²⁷Marta ütles talle: 'Jah, Issand, ma usun, et sina oled Messias, Jumala Poeg, kes peab maailma tulema.'

²⁷She said to him, “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, God’s Son, he who comes into the world.”

²⁸Ja kui Marta seda oli öelnud, läks ta ja kutsus salaja oma õde Maarjat: 'Õpetaja on siin ja kutsub sind.'

²⁸When she had said this, she went away, and called Mary, her sister, secretly, saying, “The Teacher is here, and is calling you.”

²⁹Seda kuuldes tõusis Maarja otsekohe ja tuli tema juurde,

²⁹When she heard this, she arose quickly, and went to him.

³⁰sest Jeesus ei olnud jõudnud külasse, vaid oli alles seal paigas, kus Marta oli talle vastu tulnud.

³⁰Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha met him.

³¹Kui nüüd juudid, kes olid ta juures kodus teda lohutamas, nägid Maarjat kiiruga tõusvat ja väljuvat, järgnesid nad talle, arvates, et ta läheb hauale nutma.

³¹Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and were consoling her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there.”

³²Kui nüüd Maarja jõudis sinna, kus oli Jeesus, langes ta teda nähes ta jalge ette maha ja ütles talle: 'Issand, kui sina oleksid olnud siin, siis mu vend ei oleks surnud.'

³²Therefore when Mary came to where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.”

³³Kui nüüd Jeesus nägi teda ja temaga kaasa tulnud juute nutmas, ärritus ta vaimus ja võpatas

³³When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping who came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,

³⁴ja ütles: 'Kuhu te olete ta pannud?' Nad ütlesid talle: 'Issand, tule ja vaata!'

³⁴and said, “Where have you laid him?” They told him, “Lord, come and see.”

³⁵Jeesus nuttis.

³⁵Jesus wept.

³⁶Siis juudid ütlesid: 'Vaata, kuidas ta teda armastas!'

³⁶The Jews therefore said, “See how much affection he had for him!”

³⁷Aga mõned nende seast ütlesid: 'Kas see, kes on avanud pimeda silmad, ei oleks suutnud teha, et ka tema poleks surnud?'

³⁷Some of them said, “Couldn’t this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?”

³⁸Siis Jeesus ärritus eneses taas ja tuli haua juurde. Aga see oli koobas ja kivi oli selle peal.

³⁸Jesus therefore, again groaning in himself, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.

³⁹Jeesus ütles: 'Tõstke kivi ära!' Surnu õde Marta ütles talle: 'Issand, ta lehkab juba, sest on juba neljas päev.'

³⁹Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.”

⁴⁰Jeesus ütles talle: 'Kas ma ei öelnud sulle, et kui sa usuksid, näeksid sa Jumala kirkust?'

⁴⁰Jesus said to her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believed, you would see God’s glory?”

⁴¹Siis nad veeretasid kivi ära. Aga Jeesus tõstis silmad üles ja ütles: 'Ma tänan sind, Isa, et sa oled mind kuulnud.

⁴¹So they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. NU omits “from the place where the dead man was lying.” Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, “Father, I thank you that you listened to me.

⁴²Mina küll teadsin, et sa kuuled mind alati, kuid ma ütlesin seda minu ümber seisva rahvahulga pärast, et nad võiksid uskuda, et sina oled minu läkitanud.'

⁴² I know that you always listen to me, but because of the multitude that stands around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me.”

⁴³Ja seda öelnud, hõikas ta valju häälega: 'Laatsarus, tule välja!'

⁴³When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”

⁴⁴Surnu tuli välja, jalad ja käed mähistega mähitud, ja ta silmade ümber oli seotud higirätik. Jeesus ütles neile: 'Päästke ta lahti ning laske tal minna!'

⁴⁴He who was dead came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Free him, and let him go.”

⁴⁵Nüüd hakkasid Jeesusesse uskuma paljud juudid, kes olid tulnud Maarja juurde ja näinud, mis ta oli teinud.

⁴⁵Therefore many of the Jews, who came to Mary and saw what Jesus did, believed in him.

⁴⁶Aga mõned neist läksid variseride juurde ja teatasid neile, mis Jeesus oli teinud.

⁴⁶But some of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them the things which Jesus had done.

⁴⁷Seepeale kutsusid ülempreestrid ja variserid kokku Suurkohtu koosoleku ja ütlesid: 'Mis me teeme? See inimene teeb palju tunnustähti.

⁴⁷The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, “What are we doing? For this man does many signs.

⁴⁸Kui me jätame ta rahule, hakkavad kõik temasse uskuma, ning siis tulevad roomlased ja võtavad ära nii meie pühapaiga kui ka rahva.'

⁴⁸If we leave him alone like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”

⁴⁹Aga üks neist, Kaifas, kes oli tolle aasta ülempreester, ütles neile: 'Teie ei tea mitte midagi

⁴⁹But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all,

⁵⁰ega mõtle, et teile on parem, et üks inimene sureb rahva eest, kui et kogu rahvas hukkub.'

⁵⁰nor do you consider that it is advantageous for us that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish.”

⁵¹Aga seda ta ei öelnud iseenesest, vaid tolle aasta ülempreestrina kuulutas prohvetlikult, et Jeesusel tuleb surra rahva eest.

⁵¹Now he didn’t say this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,

⁵²Aga Jeesus ei pidanud surema üksnes selle rahva eest, vaid et koguda ka hajali elavaid Jumala lapsi ühtekokku.

⁵²and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.

⁵³Sellest päevast peale võtsid nad siis nõuks Jeesus ära tappa.

⁵³So from that day forward they took counsel that they might put him to death.

⁵⁴Nüüd ei käinud Jeesus enam juutide keskel avalikult, vaid läks sealt ära kõrbelähedasse paika, Efraimi-nimelisse linna ning viibis seal koos jüngritega.

⁵⁴Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews, but departed from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim. He stayed there with his disciples.

⁵⁵Aga juutide paasapühad olid ligi ning maalt läksid paljud üles Jeruusalemma end paasapühade jaoks puhastama.

⁵⁵Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand. Many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.

⁵⁶Siis nad otsisid Jeesust ja pärisid pühakojas seistes üksteiselt: 'Mis te arvate? Vaevalt ta tuleb pühadeks?'

⁵⁶Then they sought for Jesus and spoke one with another, as they stood in the temple, “What do you think—that he isn’t coming to the feast at all?”

⁵⁷Aga ülempreestrid ja variserid olid andnud käsu, et kui keegi peaks teadma, kus Jeesus on, siis see annaks ta üles, et nad saaksid ta vahistada.

⁵⁷Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had commanded that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, that they might seize him.
