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

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

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

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

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

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

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.”

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

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

⁵A Ježiš miloval Martu i jej sestru i Lazara.

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

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

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

⁷Až potom povedal učeníkom: Poďme zase do Judska.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

¹⁸A Betánia bola blízko Jeruzalema, nejakých pätnásť honov.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

²³Ježiš jej povedal: Tvoj brat vstane.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.”

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.

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.”

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.

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

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

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

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

³⁵Jesus wept.

³⁵A Ježiš zaplakal.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.”

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

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

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

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.

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

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.”

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

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

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

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.”

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!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.”

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

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

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

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.”

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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?”

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

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.

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