¹Seorang yang bernama Lazarus tinggal di Betania bersama-sama dengan saudaranya Maria dan Marta.

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

²Maria ialah wanita yang menuang minyak wangi ke kaki Tuhan, dan menyekanya dengan rambutnya. Suatu ketika Lazarus jatuh sakit.

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

³Kedua saudaranya mengabarkan kepada Yesus, "Tuhan, saudara kami yang Tuhan kasihi itu sakit."

³The sisters therefore sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

⁴Ketika Yesus mendengar kabar itu, Ia berkata, "Penyakit ini tidak akan menyebabkan kematian. Ini terjadi supaya Allah diagungkan, dan supaya karenanya Anak Allah juga diagungkan."

⁴But when Jesus heard it, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified thereby.

⁵Yesus mengasihi Marta, Maria dan Lazarus.

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

⁶Tetapi ketika Yesus mendapat berita bahwa Lazarus sakit, Ia sengaja tinggal di tempat-Nya dua hari lagi.

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

⁷Sesudah itu baru Ia berkata kepada pengikut-pengikut-Nya, "Mari kita kembali ke Yudea."

⁷Then after this he saith to the disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.

⁸Mereka menjawab, "Bapak Guru, baru saja orang-orang Yahudi mau melempari Bapak dengan batu dan sekarang Bapak mau kembali lagi ke sana?"

⁸The disciples say unto him, Rabbi, the Jews were but now seeking to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?

⁹"Bukankah siang hari lamanya dua belas jam?" kata Yesus. "Orang yang berjalan di waktu siang, tidak tersandung sebab ia melihat terang dunia ini.

⁹Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If a man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.

¹⁰Tetapi orang yang berjalan di waktu malam tersandung, sebab tidak ada terang padanya."

¹⁰But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.

¹¹Begitulah kata Yesus. Kemudian Ia berkata lagi, "Sahabat kita Lazarus sudah tidur, tetapi Aku akan pergi membangunkan dia."

¹¹These things spake he: and after this he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus is fallen asleep; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.

¹²Pengikut-pengikut Yesus berkata, "Tuhan, kalau Lazarus tidur, nanti ia akan sembuh."

¹²The disciples therefore said unto him, Lord, if he is fallen asleep, he will recover.

¹³Maksud Yesus ialah bahwa Lazarus sudah mati. Tetapi mereka menyangka maksud Yesus adalah bahwa Lazarus tidur biasa.

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

¹⁴Karena itu Yesus berkata kepada mereka dengan terus terang, "Lazarus sudah mati.

¹⁴Then Jesus therefore said unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

¹⁵Tetapi Aku senang juga Aku tidak ada di sana, sebab lebih baik untuk kalian, supaya kalian dapat percaya. Marilah kita pergi sekarang kepada Lazarus."

¹⁵And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.

¹⁶Tomas yang disebut "Si Kembar" berkata kepada teman-temannya pengikut-pengikut Yesus, "Mari kita ikut, biar kita mati bersama Dia!"

¹⁶Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said unto his fellow-disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

¹⁷Ketika Yesus sampai di tempat itu, Lazarus sudah empat hari lamanya dikubur.

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

¹⁸Betania dekat Yerusalem, kira-kira tiga kilometer jauhnya.

¹⁸Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off;

¹⁹Banyak orang Yahudi telah datang mengunjungi Marta dan Maria untuk menghibur mereka karena kematian saudaranya.

¹⁹and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.

²⁰Ketika Marta mendengar Yesus datang, ia keluar untuk menyambut Yesus, sedangkan Maria tinggal di rumah.

²⁰Martha therefore, when she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary still sat in the house.

²¹Kata Marta kepada Yesus, "Tuhan, sekiranya Tuhan ada di sini waktu itu, pasti saudara saya tidak meninggal.

²¹Martha therefore said unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

²²Namun begitu saya tahu bahwa sekarang ini juga Allah akan memberi apa saja yang Tuhan minta kepada-Nya."

²²And even now I know that, whatsoever thou shalt ask of God, God will give thee.

²³"Saudaramu akan hidup kembali," kata Yesus kepada Marta.

²³Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.

²⁴Marta menjawab, "Saya tahu Lazarus akan hidup kembali bila orang mati dibangkitkan pada Hari Kiamat."

²⁴Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.

²⁵"Akulah yang memberi hidup dan membangkitkan orang mati," kata Yesus kepada Marta. "Orang yang percaya kepada-Ku akan hidup, walaupun ia sudah mati.

²⁵Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth on me, though he die, yet shall he live;

²⁶Dan orang hidup yang percaya kepada-Ku, selama-lamanya tidak akan mati. Percayakah engkau akan hal itu?"

²⁶and whosoever liveth and believeth on me shall never die. Believest thou this?

²⁷"Tuhan," jawab Marta, "saya percaya Tuhan Anak Allah, Raja Penyelamat yang akan datang ke dunia ini."

²⁷She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I have believed that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, [even] he that cometh into the world.

²⁸Setelah Marta berkata begitu, ia pergi memanggil Maria, saudaranya dan berbisik kepadanya, "Bapak Guru ada di sini; Ia menanyakan engkau."

²⁸And when she had said this, she went away, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Teacher is her, and calleth thee.

²⁹Mendengar itu, Maria cepat-cepat bangun, lalu pergi menemui Yesus.

²⁹And she, when she heard it, arose quickly, and went unto him.

³⁰Waktu itu, Yesus belum masuk ke desa. Ia masih di tempat Marta menjumpai-Nya.

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

³¹Orang-orang Yahudi yang sedang menghibur Maria di rumah, melihat Maria bangun dan cepat-cepat keluar; jadi mereka pergi mengikuti dia, sebab mereka menyangka ia pergi ke kubur untuk menangis.

³¹The Jews then 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, supposing that she was going unto the tomb to weep there.

³²Waktu Maria sampai di tempat Yesus dan melihat Dia, berlututlah Maria di depan-Nya dan berkata, "Tuhan, sekiranya Tuhan ada di sini waktu itu, pasti saudara saya tidak meninggal."

³²Mary therefore, when she came where Jesus was, and saw him, fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

³³Ketika Yesus melihat Maria menangis, dan orang-orang Yahudi yang datang bersama Maria itu juga menangis, hati-Nya sedih, dan Ia tampak terharu sekali.

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

³⁴Maka bertanyalah Ia kepada mereka, "Di mana kalian menguburkan dia?" "Mari lihat, Tuhan," jawab mereka.

³⁴and said, Where have ye laid him? They say unto him, Lord, come and see.

³⁵Lalu Yesus menangis.

³⁵Jesus wept.

³⁶Maka orang-orang Yahudi itu berkata, "Lihat, bukan main kasih-Nya kepada Lazarus!"

³⁶The Jews therefore said, Behold how he loved him!

³⁷Tetapi ada di antara mereka yang berkata, "Ia membuat orang buta melihat, mengapa Ia tidak bisa mencegah supaya Lazarus jangan mati?"

³⁷But some of them said, Could not this man, who opened the eyes of him that was blind, have caused that this man also should not die?

³⁸Yesus sangat terharu lagi, lalu pergi ke kuburan. Kuburan itu adalah sebuah gua yang ditutup dengan batu besar.

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

³⁹"Singkirkan batu itu," kata Yesus. Marta, saudara orang yang meninggal itu, menjawab, "Tetapi, Tuhan, ia sudah empat hari dikubur. Tentu sudah berbau busuk!"

³⁹Jesus saith, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time the body decayeth; for he hath been [dead] four days.

⁴⁰Yesus berkata kepada Marta, "Bukankah sudah Kukatakan kepadamu: Kalau engkau percaya, engkau akan melihat betapa besar kuasa Allah!"

⁴⁰Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou believedst, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

⁴¹Maka mereka menyingkirkan batu itu. Kemudian Yesus menengadah ke langit dan berkata, "Terima kasih, Bapa, karena Engkau telah mendengarkan Aku.

⁴¹So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou heardest me.

⁴²Aku tahu Engkau selalu mendengarkan Aku, tetapi Aku mengatakan ini, untuk orang-orang yang ada di sini; supaya mereka percaya bahwa Engkaulah yang mengutus Aku."

⁴²And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the multitude that standeth around I said it, that they may believe that thou didst send me.

⁴³Sesudah berkata begitu, Yesus berseru dengan suara keras, "Lazarus, keluar!"

⁴³And when he had thus spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

⁴⁴Maka keluarlah orang yang sudah mati itu. Tangan dan kakinya masih terbungkus kain kafan, dan mukanya tertutup dengan kain penutup muka. "Lepaskan kain kafannya supaya ia bebas berjalan," kata Yesus kepada orang-orang di situ.

⁴⁴He that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave-clothes; and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.

⁴⁵Banyak dari orang-orang Yahudi yang datang mengunjungi Maria, percaya kepada Yesus waktu mereka melihat kejadian itu.

⁴⁵Many therefore of the Jews, who came to Mary and beheld that which he did, believed on him.

⁴⁶Tetapi beberapa di antara mereka pergi kepada orang Farisi dan melaporkan apa yang sudah dilakukan oleh Yesus.

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

⁴⁷Karena itu orang-orang Farisi dan imam-imam kepala mengadakan rapat dengan Mahkamah Agama. Mereka berkata, "Kita harus berbuat apa? Orang ini membuat banyak keajaiban!

⁴⁷The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many signs.

⁴⁸Kalau kita membiarkan Dia terus begini semua orang akan percaya kepada-Nya. Dan akhirnya penguasa Roma akan datang dan menghancurkan Rumah Tuhan dan seluruh bangsa kita!"

⁴⁸If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.

⁴⁹Seorang dari mereka yang bernama Kayafas, imam agung pada tahun itu, berkata, "Kalian tidak tahu apa-apa.

⁴⁹But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,

⁵⁰Apakah kalian tidak menyadari bahwa demi rakyat, lebih baik satu orang mati daripada seluruh bangsa hancur?"

⁵⁰nor do ye take account that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.

⁵¹Sebenarnya Kayafas mengatakan itu, bukan dari pikirannya sendiri. Tetapi sebagai imam agung tahun itu ia menubuatkan bahwa Yesus akan mati untuk bangsa Yahudi.

⁵¹Now this he said not of himself: but, being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation;

⁵²Dan bukan untuk bangsa Yahudi saja, tetapi juga untuk mengumpulkan dan mempersatukan anak-anak Allah yang tercerai-berai.

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

⁵³Mulai hari itu para penguasa Yahudi bersekongkol untuk membunuh Yesus.

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

⁵⁴Karena itu Yesus tidak lagi tampil di muka umum di kalangan orang Yahudi. Ia meninggalkan Yudea, lalu pergi ke kota yang bernama Efraim dekat padang gurun. Di situ Ia tinggal bersama pengikut-pengikut-Nya.

⁵⁴Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews, but departed thence into the country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim; and there he tarried with the disciples.

⁵⁵Pada waktu itu sudah dekat Hari Raya Paskah Yahudi. Banyak orang dari desa-desa sudah pergi ke Yerusalem untuk menjalankan upacara pembersihan diri sebelum perayaan itu.

⁵⁵Now the passover of the Jews was at hand: and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the passover, to purify themselves.

⁵⁶Mereka mencari Yesus, dan waktu berkumpul di Rumah Tuhan, mereka berkata satu sama lain, "Bagaimana pendapatmu? Mungkin Ia tidak datang ke perayaan ini."

⁵⁶They sought therefore for Jesus, and spake one with another, as they stood in the temple, What think ye? That he will not come to the feast?

⁵⁷Mereka mengatakan itu sebab imam-imam kepala dan orang-orang Farisi sudah mengeluarkan perintah bahwa orang yang tahu di mana Yesus berada, harus melaporkannya supaya Ia dapat ditangkap.

⁵⁷Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given commandment, that, if any man knew where he was, he should show it, that they might take him.
