¹A bol istý nemocný, Lazar z Betánie, z mestečka Márie a Marty, jej sestry.

¹And there was a certain one ailing, Lazarus, from Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister —

²To bola tá Mária, ktorá pomazala Pána masťou a poutierala jeho nohy svojimi vlasmi, ktorej brat, Lazar, bol teraz nemocný.

²and it was Mary who did anoint the Lord with ointment, and did wipe his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ailing —

³Vtedy poslaly k nemu tie sestry a odkázaly mu: Pane, hľa, ten, ktorého máš rád, je nemocný.

³therefore sent the sisters unto him, saying, `Sir, lo, he whom thou dost love is ailing;`

⁴A keď to počul Ježiš, povedal: Tá nemoc nie je na smrť, ale na slávu Božiu, aby ňou bol Syn Boží oslávený.

⁴and Jesus having heard, said, `This ailment is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.`

⁵A Ježiš miloval Martu i jej sestru i Lazara.

⁵And Jesus was loving Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus,

⁶Ako tedy počul, že je nemocný, vtedy zostal na mieste, na ktorom bol, dva dni.

⁶when, therefore, he heard that he is ailing, then indeed he remained in the place in which he was two days,

⁷Až potom povedal učeníkom: Poďme zase do Judska.

⁷then after this, he saith to the disciples, `We may go to Judea again;`

⁸A učeníci mu povedali: Rabbi, len teraz ťa hľadali Židia ukameňovať, a zase ta ideš?

⁸the disciples say to him, `Rabbi, now were the Jews seeking to stone thee, and again thou dost go thither!`

⁹Ježiš odpovedal: Či nie je dvanásť hodín dňa? Ak niekto chodí vodne, nezavadí, lebo vidí svetlo tohoto sveta;

⁹Jesus answered, `Are there not twelve hours in the day? if any one may walk in the day, he doth not stumble, because the light of this world he doth see;

¹⁰ale ak niekto chodí vnoci, zavadí, lebo niet v ňom svetla.

¹⁰and if any one may walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.`

¹¹To povedal a potom im riekol: Lazar, náš priateľ, usnul; ale idem, aby som ho zobudil zo sna.

¹¹These things he said, and after this he saith to them, `Lazarus our friend hath fallen asleep, but I go on that I may awake him;`

¹²Vtedy mu povedali učeníci: Pane, ak usnul, ozdravie.

¹²therefore said his disciples, `Sir, if he hath fallen asleep, he will be saved;`

¹³Ale Ježiš povedal o jeho smrti, a oni sa domnievali, že hovorí o spánku sna.

¹³but Jesus had spoken about his death, but they thought that about the repose of sleep he speaketh.

¹⁴A tak vtedy im povedal Ježiš otvorene: Lazar zomrel,

¹⁴Then, therefore, Jesus said to them freely, `Lazarus hath died;

¹⁵a radujem sa pre vás, že som tam nebol, aby ste uverili. Ale poďme za ním!

¹⁵and I rejoice, for your sake, (that ye may believe,) that I was not there; but we may go to him;`

¹⁶Vtedy povedal Tomáš, zvaný Didymus, spoluučeníkom: Poďme aj my, aby sme zomreli s ním!

¹⁶therefore said Thomas, who is called Didymus, to the fellow-disciples, `We may go — we also, that we may die with him,`

¹⁷A tak keď prišiel Ježiš, našiel ho už štyri dni ležať v hrobe.

¹⁷Jesus, therefore, having come, found him having been four days already in the tomb.

¹⁸A Betánia bola blízko Jeruzalema, nejakých pätnásť honov.

¹⁸And Bethany was nigh to Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off,

¹⁹A mnohí zo Židov boli prišli k Marte a Márii, aby ich potešili ohľadom ich brata.

¹⁹and many of the Jews had come unto Martha and Mary, that they might comfort them concerning their brother;

²⁰Vtedy Marta, ako počula, že ide Ježiš, vyšla proti nemu, ale Mária sedela doma.

²⁰Martha, therefore, when she heard that Jesus doth come, met him, and Mary kept sitting in the house.

²¹Vtedy povedala Marta Ježišovi: Pane, keby si tu bol býval, môj brat by nebol zomrel.

²¹Martha, therefore, said unto Jesus, `Sir, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died;

²²Ale aj teraz viem, že všetko, za čokoľvek by si požiadal Boha, dá ti Bôh.

²²but even now, I have known that whatever thou mayest ask of God, God will give to thee;`

²³Ježiš jej povedal: Tvoj brat vstane.

²³Jesus saith to her, `Thy brother shall rise again.`

²⁴A Marta mu povedala: Viem, že vstane pri vzkriesení, v posledný deň.

²⁴Martha saith to him, `I have known that he will rise again, in the rising again in the last day;`

²⁵Ježiš jej povedal: Ja som vzkriesenie i život; ten, kto verí vo mňa, aj keby zomrel, žiť bude.

²⁵Jesus said to her, `I am the rising again, and the life; he who is believing in me, even if he may die, shall live;

²⁶A nikto, kto žije a verí vo mňa, nezomrie na veky; či veríš tomu?

²⁶and every one who is living and believing in me shall not die — to the age;

²⁷Riekla mu: Áno, pane; ja som uverila, že si ty Kristus, ten Syn Boží, ktorý mal prijsť na svet.

²⁷believest thou this?` she saith to him, `Yes, sir, I have believed that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming to the world.`

²⁸A keď to povedala, odišla a zavolala Máriu, svoju sestru, tajne, povediac: Učiteľ je tu a volá ťa.

²⁸And these things having said, she went away, and called Mary her sister privately, saying, `The Teacher is present, and doth call thee;`

²⁹A tá, jako to počula, vstala rýchle a išla za ním.

²⁹she, when she heard, riseth up quickly, and doth come to him;

³⁰A Ježiš nebol ešte prišiel do mestečka, ale bol ešte na mieste, kde bola vyšla proti nemu Marta.

³⁰and Jesus had not yet come to the village, but was in the place where Martha met him;

³¹Vtedy Židia, ktorí boli s ňou v dome a tešili ju, vidiac Máriu, že vstala rýchle a vyšla, išli za ňou domnievajúc sa, že ide k hrobu, aby tam plakala.

³¹the Jews, therefore, who were with her in the house, and were comforting her, having seen Mary that she rose up quickly and went forth, followed her, saying — `She doth go away to the tomb, that she may weep there.`

³²Vtedy Mária, ako prišla ta, kde bol Ježiš, a videla ho, padla k jeho nohám a povedala mu: Pane, keby si tu bol býval, môj brat by nebol zomrel.

³²Mary, therefore, when she came where Jesus was, having seen him, fell at his feet, saying to him, `Sir, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died;`

³³Vtedy Ježiš, keď ju videl, že plače, aj Židov, ktorí prišli s ňou, že plačú, zovrel duchom a zachvel sa

³³Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, did groan in the spirit, and troubled himself, and he said,

³⁴a povedal: Kde ste ho položili? A oni mu povedali: Pane, poď a pozri!

³⁴`Where have ye laid him?` they say to him, `Sir, come and see;`

³⁵A Ježiš zaplakal.

³⁵Jesus wept.

³⁶Vtedy vraveli Židia: Hľa, jako ho mal rád!

³⁶The Jews, therefore, said, `Lo, how he was loving him!`

³⁷A niektorí z nich povedali: Či nemohol tento, ktorý otvoril oči slepého, učiniť aj to, aby tento nezomrel?

³⁷and certain of them said, `Was not this one, who did open the eyes of the blind man, able to cause that also this one might not have died?`

³⁸Vtedy znova zovrel v sebe Ježiš a prišiel k hrobu. A bola to jaskyňa, a kameň ležal na nej.

³⁸Jesus, therefore, again groaning in himself, cometh to the tomb, and it was a cave, and a stone was lying upon it,

³⁹Ježiš povedal: Zodvihnite kameň! A Marta, sestra zomrelého, mu povedala: Pane, už smrdí, lebo je už štyri dni v hrobe.

³⁹Jesus saith, `Take ye away the stone;` the sister of him who hath died — Martha — saith to him, `Sir, already he stinketh, for he is four days dead;`

⁴⁰Na to jej riekol Ježiš: Či som ti nepovedal, že ak budeš veriť, uvidíš slávu Božiu?

⁴⁰Jesus saith to her, `Said I not to thee, that if thou mayest believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?`

⁴¹Vtedy zodvihli kameň, kde ležal mŕtvy. A Ježiš pozdvihol oči hore a povedal: Otče, ďakujem ti, že si ma počul.

⁴¹They took away, therefore, the stone where the dead was laid, and Jesus lifted his eyes upwards, and said, `Father, I thank Thee, that Thou didst hear me;

⁴²No, ja som vedel, že ma vždy čuješ, ale pre zástup, stojaci okolo, som to povedal, aby uverili, že si ma ty poslal.

⁴²and I knew that Thou always dost hear me, but, because of the multitude that is standing by, I said [it], that they may believe that Thou didst send me.`

⁴³A keď to povedal, zavolal veľkým hlasom: Lazare, poď von!

⁴³And these things saying, with a loud voice he cried out, `Lazarus, come forth;`

⁴⁴A zomrelý vyšiel majúc poviazané nohy aj ruky pohrabnými povojmi, a jeho tvár bola ovinutá znojníkom. A Ježiš im povedal: Rozviažte ho a nechajte ho odísť!

⁴⁴and he who died came forth, being bound feet and hands with grave-clothes, and his visage with a napkin was bound about; Jesus saith to them, `Loose him, and suffer to go.`

⁴⁵Vtedy mnohí zo Židov, ktorí boli prišli za Máriou a videli, čo učinil Ježiš, uverili v neho.

⁴⁵Many, therefore, of the Jews who came unto Mary, and beheld what Jesus did, believed in him;

⁴⁶Ale niektorí z nich odišli k farizeom a povedali im, čo učinil Ježiš.

⁴⁶but certain of them went away unto the Pharisees, and told them what Jesus did;

⁴⁷Vtedy svolali najvyšší kňazi a farizeovia vysokú radu a hovorili: Čo to robíme, že ten človek robí tak mnohé divy?

⁴⁷the chief priests, therefore, and the Pharisees, gathered together a sanhedrim, and said, `What may we do? because this man doth many signs?

⁴⁸Ak ho necháme takto, všetci uveria v neho, a prijdú Rimania a vezmú i naše miesto i náš národ.

⁴⁸if we may let him alone thus, all will believe in him; and the Romans will come, and will take away both our place and nation.`

⁴⁹A jeden, ktorýsi z nich, Kaifáš, ktorý bol toho roku najvyšším kňazom, im povedal: Vy neviete ničoho

⁴⁹and a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being chief priest of that year, said to them, `Ye have not known anything,

⁵⁰ani nemyslíte, že nám je užitočné, aby zomrel jeden človek za ľud, a nie aby zahynul celý národ.

⁵⁰nor reason that it is good for us that one man may die for the people, and not the whole nation perish.`

⁵¹A však toho nepovedal sám od seba, ale súc toho roku najvyšším kňazom zaprorokoval, že Ježiš mal zomrieť za národ.

⁵¹And this he said not of himself, but being chief priest of that year, he did prophesy that Jesus was about to die for the nation,

⁵²No, nie len za národ, ale aby aj rozptýlené deti Božie shromaždil v jedno.

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

⁵³A tak od toho dňa sa uradili, aby ho zabili.

⁵³From that day, therefore, they took counsel together that they may kill him;

⁵⁴Preto už viacej nechodil Ježiš verejne medzi Židmi, ale odišiel odtiaľ do kraja blízko púšte, do mesta, zvaného Efraim, a tam sa zdržoval so svojimi učeníkmi.

⁵⁴Jesus, therefore, was no more freely walking among the Jews, but went away thence to the region nigh the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there he tarried with his disciples.

⁵⁵A bola blízko Veľká noc Židov, a mnohí išli z toho kraja pred Veľkou nocou hore do Jeruzalema, aby sa očistili.

⁵⁵And the passover of the Jews was nigh, and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the passover, that they might purify themselves;

⁵⁶Vtedy hľadali Ježiša a shovárali sa jeden s druhým stojac v chráme: Čo sa vám zdá? Že naozaj neprijde na sviatok?

⁵⁶they were seeking, therefore, Jesus, and said one with another, standing in the temple, `What doth appear to you — that he may not come to the feast?`

⁵⁷A jako najvyšší kňazi tak i farizeovia boli už vydali rozkaz, aby to, keby niekto zvedel, kde je, oznámil, aby ho chytili.

⁵⁷and both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if any one may know where he is, he may shew [it], so that they may seize him.
