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

¹¶ Na kei te mate tetahi tangata, a Raharuhi o Petani, te kainga o Meri raua ko tona tuakana, ko Mata.

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

²Ko taua Meri tenei nana nei i whakawahi te Ariki ki te hinu, i muru hoki i ona waewae ki ona makawe; a he tungane nona a Raharuhi i mate nei.

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

³Na ka tono tangata nga tuahine ki a ia, ka mea, E te Ariki, tenei kei te mate tau tangata e aroha nei.

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.”

⁴I te rongonga ia o Ihu, ka mea ia, Ehara tenei i te mate e mate rawa ai ia, engari hei mea mo te kororia o te Atua; ma tenei hoki ka whai kororia ai te Tama a te Atua.

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

⁵Na i aroha a Ihu ki a Mata raua ko tona teina, ki a Raharuhi hoki.

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

⁶A, no ka rongo ia ki tona matenga, e rua ona ra i noho ai ki taua wahi ra ano.

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

⁷Muri iho i tenei ka mea ia ki ana akonga, Tatou ka haere ano ki Huria.

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

⁸Ka mea nga akonga ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, i whai nga Hurai i mua tata ake nei kia akina koe ki te kohatu; a e haere atu ana koe ki reira?

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.

⁹Ka whakahokia e Ihu, He teka ianei tekau ma rua nga haora o te ra? Ki te haere tetahi i te awatea, e kore ia e tutuki, no te mea e kite ana ia i te marama o tenei ao.

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

¹⁰Tena ka haere tetahi i te po, ka tutuki ia, no te mea kahore he marama i roto i a ia.

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.”

¹¹Ka korerotia enei mea e ia: na, muri iho ka mea ia ki a ratou, Kei te moe to tatou hoa a Raharuhi; otiia ka haere ahau ki te whakaara i a ia i te moe.

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

¹²Na ko te meatanga a ana akonga, E te Ariki, ki te mea kei te moe ia, tera ia e ora.

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

¹³Kahore, ko tona matenga ta Ihu i korero ai: ko ratou ia i mahara, i korero ia mo te takotoranga ina moe.

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

¹⁴Katahi ka mea nui a Ihu ki a ratou, Kua mate a Raharuhi.

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

¹⁵A e hari ana ahau, he whakaaro hoki ki a koutou, noku kahore i reira, kia whakapono ai koutou; ahakoa ra kia haere tatou ki a ia.

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

¹⁶Na ka mea a Tamati, e huaina nei ko Ririmu, ki ona hoa akonga, Kia haere ano tatou, kia mate tahi me ia.

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

¹⁷¶ Heoi, i te taenga atu o Ihu, rokohanga atu kua wha ke ona ra i roto i te urupa.

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

¹⁸Na e tata ana Petani ki Hiruharama, kotahi pea tekau ma rima paronga:

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

¹⁹He tokomaha ano nga Hurai i tae ki a Mata raua ko Meri, ki te whakamarie i a raua mo to raua tungane.

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

²⁰A, no te rongonga o Mata, tena a Ihu te haere mai na, ka whakatau i a ia: ko Meri ia i noho i roto i te whare.

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

²¹Na ka mea a Mata ki a Ihu, E te Ariki, me i konei koe, kihai i mate toku tungane.

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

²²Heoi e matau nei ano ahau, ko tau e inoi ai ki te Atua, e homai e te Atua ki a koe.

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

²³Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, E ara ano tou tu ngane.

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

²⁴Ka mea a Mata ki a ia, E matau ana ahau e ara ano ia i te aranga a te ra whakamutunga.

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

²⁵Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Ko ahau te aranga, te ora; ko ia e whakapono ana ki ahau, ahakoa kua mate, e ora ano:

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

²⁶E kore ano e mate ake ake nga tangata katoa e ora ana, e whakapono ana ki ahau. E whakapono ana ranei koe ki tenei?

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.”

²⁷Ka mea ia ki a ia, Ae, e te Ariki: e whakapono ana ahau, ko te Karaiti koe, ko te Tama a te Atua, e haere mai ana ki te ao.

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

²⁸A ka mutu enei korero ana, ka haere ka karanga puku ki tona teina, ki a Meri, ka mea, Kua tae mai te Kaiwhakaako, e karanga ana hoki ki a koe.

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

²⁹A, no ka rongo ia, hohoro tonu te whakatika, a haere ana ki a ia.

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

³⁰Na kahore a Ihu i tomo noa ki te kainga; heoi kei taua wahi ano ia i tutaki ai a Mata ki a ia.

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.”

³¹I te kitenga o nga Hurai e noho ana ki a ia i roto i te whare, e whakamarie ana i a ia, ka hohoro a Meri te whakatika, te puta ki waho, ka aru ratou i a ia, ka mea, E haere ana ia ki te urupa, ki reira tangi ai.

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.”

³²A, no ka tae a Meri ki te wahi kei reira nei a Ihu, ka kite i a ia, ka takoto ki ona waewae, ka mea ki a ia, E te Ariki, me i konei koe, kihai i mate toku tungane.

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

³³¶ A, no ka kite a Ihu i a ia e tangi ana, i nga Hurai hoki i haere tahi me ia e tangi ana, ka ngunguru ia, ara tona wairua, ka koingo.

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

³⁴Ka mea, I whakatakotoria ia e koutou ki hea? Ka mea ratou ki a ia, E te Ariki, haere mai kia kite.

³⁵Jesus wept.

³⁵Tangi ana a Ihu.

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

³⁶Na ka mea nga Hurai, Nana, tona aroha ki a ia!

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

³⁷Na ka mea etahi o ratou, Kahore ranei i taea e tenei tangata, nana nei i whakatitiro nga kanohi o te matapo, te mea i tenei tangata hoki kia kaua e mate?

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

³⁸Na ka ngunguru ano a Ihu i roto i a ia, ka haere ki te urupa. He ana ia, kua oti te pa ki te kohatu.

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.”

³⁹Ka mea a Ihu, Tangohia atu e koutou te kohatu. Ka mea ki a ia a Mata tuahine o te tupapaku, E te Ariki, kua piro noa ake ia: ko tona po wha hoki tenei.

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

⁴⁰Ano ra ko Ihu ki a ia, Kihai koia ahau i mea ki a koe, Ki te whakapono koe, e kite koe i te kororia o te Atua?

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.

⁴¹Na ka tangohia e ratou te kohatu i te wahi i takoto ai te tupapaku. Na ka ara ake nga kanohi o Ihu, ka mea ia, E Pa, ko taku whakawhetai tenei ki a koe, mou i whakarongo ki ahau.

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.”

⁴²I mahara ano ahau e rongo tonu ana koe ki ahau: heoi he whakaaro ki te hunga e tu mai nei i korero ai ahau, kia whakapono ai ratou, nau ahau i tono mai.

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

⁴³A, no ka penei tana ki, he nui tona reo ki te karanga, E Raharuhi, puta mai.

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.”

⁴⁴Na ko te putanga mai o te tupapaku, he mea here nga ringa me nga waewae ki nga takai: he mea takai tona mata ki te tauera. Ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Wetekia, tukua kia haere.

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

⁴⁵¶ Na he tokomaha nga Hurai i haere nei ki a Meri, a, i to ratou kitenga i nga mea i mea ai a Ihu, ka whakapono ki a ia.

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

⁴⁶Ko etahi o ratou i haere ki nga Parihi, i korero ki a ratou i nga mea i mahia e Ihu.

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

⁴⁷Na ka whakaminea he runanga e nga tohunga nui ratou ko nga Parihi, ka mea, Kei te aha tatou nei? he maha hoki nga merekara e meatia nei e tenei tangata.

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.”

⁴⁸Ki te penei ta tatou tuku i a ia, ka whakapono katoa ki a ia: a ka haere mai nga Roma, ka tango i to tatou kainga, i to tatou iwi.

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

⁴⁹Na ko tetahi o ratou ko Kaiapa, ko te tohunga nui o taua tau, ka mea ki a ratou, Kahore koutou e matau ki tetahi mea.

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.”

⁵⁰Te whakaaro, he pai mo tatou ki te mate te tangata kotahi mo te iwi, a kahore e ngaro te iwi katoa.

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

⁵¹Na ehara tenei korero i te mea nana ake: engari ko te tohunga nui ia mo tera tau, heoi ka poropiti kia mate a Ihu mo taua iwi.

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

⁵²Haunga ano taua iwi anake, engari kia whakaminea kia kotahi nga tamariki a te Atua kua marara noa atu.

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

⁵³No taua ra ake ano ka runanga ratou kia whakamatea ia.

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.

⁵⁴Koia i mutu ai te haere matanui o Ihu i roto i nga Hurai. Heoi haere atu ana ia i reira ki te wahi e tata ana ki te koraha, ki tetahi pa, ko Eparaima te ingoa, a noho ana i reira ratou ko ana akonga.

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

⁵⁵Na kua tata te kapenga a nga Hurai: he tokomaha hoki i haere atu i taua whenua i mua o te kapenga ki Hiruharama ki te pure i a ratou.

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?”

⁵⁶Na ka rapu ratou i a Ihu, ka korerorero ki a ratou ano, i a ratou e tu ana i te temepara, E pehea ana o koutou whakaaro? e kore ranei ia e haere mai ki te hakari?

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.

⁵⁷Na kua takoto te tikanga a nga tohunga nui ratou ko nga Parihi, ki te matau tetahi tangata ki te wahi e noho ai ia, me whakaatu, kia hopukia ai ia e ratou.
