1 ἦν δέ τις ἀσθενῶν, λάζαρος ἀπὸ βηθανίας, ἐκ τῆς κώμης μαρίας καὶ μάρθας τῆς ἀδελφῆς αὐτῆς.

2 ἦν δὲ μαριὰμ ἡ ἀλείψασα τὸν κύριον μύρῳ καὶ ἐκμάξασα τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ ταῖς θριξὶν αὐτῆς, ἧς ὁ ἀδελφὸς λάζαρος ἠσθένει.

3 ἀπέστειλαν οὗν αἱ ἀδελφαὶ πρὸς αὐτὸν λέγουσαι, κύριε, ἴδε ὃν φιλεῖς ἀσθενεῖ.

4 ἀκούσας δὲ ὁ ἰησοῦς εἶπεν, αὕτη ἡ ἀσθένεια οὐκ ἔστιν πρὸς θάνατον ἀλλ᾽ ὑπὲρ τῆς δόξης τοῦ θεοῦ, ἵνα δοξασθῇ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ δι᾽ αὐτῆς.

5 ἠγάπα δὲ ὁ ἰησοῦς τὴν μάρθαν καὶ τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῆς καὶ τὸν λάζαρον.

6 ὡς οὗν ἤκουσεν ὅτι ἀσθενεῖ, τότε μὲν ἔμεινεν ἐν ᾧ ἦν τόπῳ δύο ἡμέρας·

7 ἔπειτα μετὰ τοῦτο λέγει τοῖς μαθηταῖς, ἄγωμεν εἰς τὴν ἰουδαίαν πάλιν.

8 λέγουσιν αὐτῶ οἱ μαθηταί, ῥαββί, νῦν ἐζήτουν σε λιθάσαι οἱ ἰουδαῖοι, καὶ πάλιν ὑπάγεις ἐκεῖ;

9 ἀπεκρίθη ἰησοῦς, οὐχὶ δώδεκα ὧραί εἰσιν τῆς ἡμέρας; ἐάν τις περιπατῇ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, οὐ προσκόπτει, ὅτι τὸ φῶς τοῦ κόσμου τούτου βλέπει·

10 ἐὰν δέ τις περιπατῇ ἐν τῇ νυκτί, προσκόπτει, ὅτι τὸ φῶς οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν αὐτῶ.

11 ταῦτα εἶπεν, καὶ μετὰ τοῦτο λέγει αὐτοῖς, λάζαρος ὁ φίλος ἡμῶν κεκοίμηται, ἀλλὰ πορεύομαι ἵνα ἐξυπνίσω αὐτόν.

12 εἶπαν οὗν οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτῶ, κύριε, εἰ κεκοίμηται σωθήσεται.

13 εἰρήκει δὲ ὁ ἰησοῦς περὶ τοῦ θανάτου αὐτοῦ. ἐκεῖνοι δὲ ἔδοξαν ὅτι περὶ τῆς κοιμήσεως τοῦ ὕπνου λέγει.

14 τότε οὗν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ ἰησοῦς παρρησίᾳ, λάζαρος ἀπέθανεν,

15 καὶ χαίρω δι᾽ ὑμᾶς, ἵνα πιστεύσητε, ὅτι οὐκ ἤμην ἐκεῖ· ἀλλὰ ἄγωμεν πρὸς αὐτόν.

16 εἶπεν οὗν θωμᾶς ὁ λεγόμενος δίδυμος τοῖς συμμαθηταῖς, ἄγωμεν καὶ ἡμεῖς ἵνα ἀποθάνωμεν μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ.

17 ἐλθὼν οὗν ὁ ἰησοῦς εὖρεν αὐτὸν τέσσαρας ἤδη ἡμέρας ἔχοντα ἐν τῶ μνημείῳ.

18 ἦν δὲ ἡ βηθανία ἐγγὺς τῶν ἱεροσολύμων ὡς ἀπὸ σταδίων δεκαπέντε.

19 πολλοὶ δὲ ἐκ τῶν ἰουδαίων ἐληλύθεισαν πρὸς τὴν μάρθαν καὶ μαριὰμ ἵνα παραμυθήσωνται αὐτὰς περὶ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ.

20 ἡ οὗν μάρθα ὡς ἤκουσεν ὅτι ἰησοῦς ἔρχεται ὑπήντησεν αὐτῶ· μαριὰμ δὲ ἐν τῶ οἴκῳ ἐκαθέζετο.

21 εἶπεν οὗν ἡ μάρθα πρὸς τὸν ἰησοῦν, κύριε, εἰ ἦς ὧδε οὐκ ἂν ἀπέθανεν ὁ ἀδελφός μου·

22 [ἀλλὰ] καὶ νῦν οἶδα ὅτι ὅσα ἂν αἰτήσῃ τὸν θεὸν δώσει σοι ὁ θεός.

23 λέγει αὐτῇ ὁ ἰησοῦς, ἀναστήσεται ὁ ἀδελφός σου.

24 λέγει αὐτῶ ἡ μάρθα, οἶδα ὅτι ἀναστήσεται ἐν τῇ ἀναστάσει ἐν τῇ ἐσχάτῃ ἡμέρᾳ.

25 εἶπεν αὐτῇ ὁ ἰησοῦς, ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἀνάστασις καὶ ἡ ζωή· ὁ πιστεύων εἰς ἐμὲ κἂν ἀποθάνῃ ζήσεται,

26 καὶ πᾶς ὁ ζῶν καὶ πιστεύων εἰς ἐμὲ οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνῃ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα· πιστεύεις τοῦτο;

27 λέγει αὐτῶ, ναί, κύριε· ἐγὼ πεπίστευκα ὅτι σὺ εἶ ὁ χριστὸς ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ ὁ εἰς τὸν κόσμον ἐρχόμενος.

28 καὶ τοῦτο εἰποῦσα ἀπῆλθεν καὶ ἐφώνησεν μαριὰμ τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῆς λάθρᾳ εἰποῦσα, ὁ διδάσκαλος πάρεστιν καὶ φωνεῖ σε.

29 ἐκείνη δὲ ὡς ἤκουσεν ἠγέρθη ταχὺ καὶ ἤρχετο πρὸς αὐτόν·

30 οὔπω δὲ ἐληλύθει ὁ ἰησοῦς εἰς τὴν κώμην, ἀλλ᾽ ἦν ἔτι ἐν τῶ τόπῳ ὅπου ὑπήντησεν αὐτῶ ἡ μάρθα.

31 οἱ οὗν ἰουδαῖοι οἱ ὄντες μετ᾽ αὐτῆς ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ καὶ παραμυθούμενοι αὐτήν, ἰδόντες τὴν μαριὰμ ὅτι ταχέως ἀνέστη καὶ ἐξῆλθεν, ἠκολούθησαν αὐτῇ, δόξαντες ὅτι ὑπάγει εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον ἵνα κλαύσῃ ἐκεῖ.

32 ἡ οὗν μαριὰμ ὡς ἦλθεν ὅπου ἦν ἰησοῦς ἰδοῦσα αὐτὸν ἔπεσεν αὐτοῦ πρὸς τοὺς πόδας, λέγουσα αὐτῶ, κύριε, εἰ ἦς ὧδε οὐκ ἄν μου ἀπέθανεν ὁ ἀδελφός.

33 ἰησοῦς οὗν ὡς εἶδεν αὐτὴν κλαίουσαν καὶ τοὺς συνελθόντας αὐτῇ ἰουδαίους κλαίοντας, ἐνεβριμήσατο τῶ πνεύματι καὶ ἐτάραξεν ἑαυτόν,

34 καὶ εἶπεν, ποῦ τεθείκατε αὐτόν; λέγουσιν αὐτῶ, κύριε, ἔρχου καὶ ἴδε.

35 ἐδάκρυσεν ὁ ἰησοῦς.

36 ἔλεγον οὗν οἱ ἰουδαῖοι, ἴδε πῶς ἐφίλει αὐτόν.

37 τινὲς δὲ ἐξ αὐτῶν εἶπαν, οὐκ ἐδύνατο οὖτος ὁ ἀνοίξας τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς τοῦ τυφλοῦ ποιῆσαι ἵνα καὶ οὖτος μὴ ἀποθάνῃ;

38 ἰησοῦς οὗν πάλιν ἐμβριμώμενος ἐν ἑαυτῶ ἔρχεται εἰς τὸ μνημεῖον· ἦν δὲ σπήλαιον, καὶ λίθος ἐπέκειτο ἐπ᾽ αὐτῶ.

39 λέγει ὁ ἰησοῦς, ἄρατε τὸν λίθον. λέγει αὐτῶ ἡ ἀδελφὴ τοῦ τετελευτηκότος μάρθα, κύριε, ἤδη ὄζει, τεταρταῖος γάρ ἐστιν.

40 λέγει αὐτῇ ὁ ἰησοῦς, οὐκ εἶπόν σοι ὅτι ἐὰν πιστεύσῃς ὄψῃ τὴν δόξαν τοῦ θεοῦ;

41 ἦραν οὗν τὸν λίθον. ὁ δὲ ἰησοῦς ἦρεν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς ἄνω καὶ εἶπεν, πάτερ, εὐχαριστῶ σοι ὅτι ἤκουσάς μου.

42 ἐγὼ δὲ ᾔδειν ὅτι πάντοτέ μου ἀκούεις· ἀλλὰ διὰ τὸν ὄχλον τὸν περιεστῶτα εἶπον, ἵνα πιστεύσωσιν ὅτι σύ με ἀπέστειλας.

43 καὶ ταῦτα εἰπὼν φωνῇ μεγάλῃ ἐκραύγασεν, λάζαρε, δεῦρο ἔξω.

44 ἐξῆλθεν ὁ τεθνηκὼς δεδεμένος τοὺς πόδας καὶ τὰς χεῖρας κειρίαις, καὶ ἡ ὄψις αὐτοῦ σουδαρίῳ περιεδέδετο. λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ ἰησοῦς, λύσατε αὐτὸν καὶ ἄφετε αὐτὸν ὑπάγειν.

45 πολλοὶ οὗν ἐκ τῶν ἰουδαίων, οἱ ἐλθόντες πρὸς τὴν μαριὰμ καὶ θεασάμενοι ἃ ἐποίησεν, ἐπίστευσαν εἰς αὐτόν·

46 τινὲς δὲ ἐξ αὐτῶν ἀπῆλθον πρὸς τοὺς φαρισαίους καὶ εἶπαν αὐτοῖς ἃ ἐποίησεν ἰησοῦς.

47 συνήγαγον οὗν οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ φαρισαῖοι συνέδριον, καὶ ἔλεγον, τί ποιοῦμεν, ὅτι οὖτος ὁ ἄνθρωπος πολλὰ ποιεῖ σημεῖα;

48 ἐὰν ἀφῶμεν αὐτὸν οὕτως, πάντες πιστεύσουσιν εἰς αὐτόν, καὶ ἐλεύσονται οἱ ῥωμαῖοι καὶ ἀροῦσιν ἡμῶν καὶ τὸν τόπον καὶ τὸ ἔθνος.

49 εἷς δέ τις ἐξ αὐτῶν καϊάφας, ἀρχιερεὺς ὢν τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ ἐκείνου, εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, ὑμεῖς οὐκ οἴδατε οὐδέν,

50 οὐδὲ λογίζεσθε ὅτι συμφέρει ὑμῖν ἵνα εἷς ἄνθρωπος ἀποθάνῃ ὑπὲρ τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ μὴ ὅλον τὸ ἔθνος ἀπόληται.

51 τοῦτο δὲ ἀφ᾽ ἑαυτοῦ οὐκ εἶπεν, ἀλλὰ ἀρχιερεὺς ὢν τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ ἐκείνου ἐπροφήτευσεν ὅτι ἔμελλεν ἰησοῦς ἀποθνῄσκειν ὑπὲρ τοῦ ἔθνους,

52 καὶ οὐχ ὑπὲρ τοῦ ἔθνους μόνον ἀλλ᾽ ἵνα καὶ τὰ τέκνα τοῦ θεοῦ τὰ διεσκορπισμένα συναγάγῃ εἰς ἕν.

53 ἀπ᾽ ἐκείνης οὗν τῆς ἡμέρας ἐβουλεύσαντο ἵνα ἀποκτείνωσιν αὐτόν.

54 ὁ οὗν ἰησοῦς οὐκέτι παρρησίᾳ περιεπάτει ἐν τοῖς ἰουδαίοις, ἀλλὰ ἀπῆλθεν ἐκεῖθεν εἰς τὴν χώραν ἐγγὺς τῆς ἐρήμου, εἰς ἐφραὶμ λεγομένην πόλιν, κἀκεῖ ἔμεινεν μετὰ τῶν μαθητῶν.

55 ἦν δὲ ἐγγὺς τὸ πάσχα τῶν ἰουδαίων, καὶ ἀνέβησαν πολλοὶ εἰς ἱεροσόλυμα ἐκ τῆς χώρας πρὸ τοῦ πάσχα ἵνα ἁγνίσωσιν ἑαυτούς.

56 ἐζήτουν οὗν τὸν ἰησοῦν καὶ ἔλεγον μετ᾽ ἀλλήλων ἐν τῶ ἱερῶ ἑστηκότες, τί δοκεῖ ὑμῖν; ὅτι οὐ μὴ ἔλθῃ εἰς τὴν ἑορτήν;

57 δεδώκεισαν δὲ οἱ ἀρχιερεῖς καὶ οἱ φαρισαῖοι ἐντολὰς ἵνα ἐάν τις γνῶ ποῦ ἐστιν μηνύσῃ, ὅπως πιάσωσιν αὐτόν.

1  Now¹¹⁶¹ a certain⁵¹⁰⁰ man was²²⁵⁸ sick,⁷⁷⁰ named Lazarus,²⁹⁷⁶ of⁵⁷⁵ Bethany,⁹⁶³ the³⁵⁸⁸ town²⁹⁶⁸ of Mary³¹³⁷ and²⁵³² her⁸⁴⁶ sister⁷⁹ Martha.³¹³⁶

2  (It¹¹⁶¹ was²²⁵⁸ that Mary³¹³⁷ which anointed²¹⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord²⁹⁶² with ointment,³⁴⁶⁴ and²⁵³² wiped¹⁵⁹¹ his⁸⁴⁶ feet⁴²²⁸ with her⁸⁴⁸ hair,²³⁵⁹ whose³⁷³⁹ brother⁸⁰ Lazarus²⁹⁷⁶ was sick.)⁷⁷⁰

3  Therefore³⁷⁶⁷ his sisters⁷⁹ sent⁶⁴⁹ unto⁴³¹⁴ him,⁸⁴⁶ saying,³⁰⁰⁴ Lord,²⁹⁶² behold,²³⁹⁶ he whom³⁷³⁹ thou lovest⁵³⁶⁸ is sick.⁷⁷⁰

4  When¹¹⁶¹ Jesus²⁴²⁴ heard¹⁹¹ that, he said,²⁰³⁶ This³⁷⁷⁸ sickness⁷⁶⁹ is²⁰⁷⁶ not³⁷⁵⁶ unto⁴³¹⁴ death,²²⁸⁸ but²³⁵ for⁵²²⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ glory¹³⁹¹ of God,²³¹⁶ that²⁴⁴³ the³⁵⁸⁸ Son⁵²⁰⁷ of God²³¹⁶ might be glorified¹³⁹² thereby.^{1223 846}

5  Now¹¹⁶¹ Jesus²⁴²⁴ loved²⁵ Martha,³¹³⁶ and²⁵³² her⁸⁴⁶ sister,⁷⁹ and²⁵³² Lazarus.²⁹⁷⁶

6  When⁵⁶¹³ he had heard¹⁹¹ therefore³⁷⁶⁷ that³⁷⁵⁴ he was sick,⁷⁷⁰ he abode^{3306 3303} two¹⁴¹⁷ days²²⁵⁰ still⁵¹¹⁹ in¹⁷²² the same³⁷³⁹ place⁵¹¹⁷ where he was.²²⁵⁸

7  Then¹⁸⁹⁹ after³³²⁶ that⁵¹²⁴ saith³⁰⁰⁴ he to his disciples,³¹⁰¹ Let us go⁷¹ into¹⁵¹⁹ Judea²⁴⁴⁹ again.³⁸²⁵

8  His disciples³¹⁰¹ say³⁰⁰⁴ unto him,⁸⁴⁶ Master,⁴⁴⁶¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews²⁴⁵³ of late³⁵⁶⁸ sought²²¹² to stone³⁰³⁴ thee;⁴⁵⁷¹ and²⁵³² goest⁵²¹⁷ thou thither¹⁵⁶³ again?³⁸²⁵

9  Jesus²⁴²⁴ answered,⁶¹¹ Are¹⁵²⁶ there not³⁷⁸⁰ twelve¹⁴²⁷ hours⁵⁶¹⁰ in the³⁵⁸⁸ day?²²⁵⁰ If¹⁴³⁷ any man⁵¹⁰⁰ walk⁴⁰⁴³ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ day,²²⁵⁰ he stumbleth⁴³⁵⁰ not,³⁷⁵⁶ because³⁷⁵⁴ he seeth⁹⁹¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ light⁵⁴⁵⁷ of this⁵¹²⁷ world.²⁸⁸⁹

10  But¹¹⁶¹ if¹⁴³⁷ a man⁵¹⁰⁰ walk⁴⁰⁴³ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ night,³⁵⁷¹ he stumbleth,⁴³⁵⁰ because³⁷⁵⁴ there is²⁰⁷⁶ no³⁷⁵⁶ light⁵⁴⁵⁷ in¹⁷²² him.⁸⁴⁶

11  These things⁵⁰²³ said²⁰³⁶ he: and²⁵³² after³³²⁶ that⁵¹²⁴ he saith³⁰⁰⁴ unto them,⁸⁴⁶ Our²²⁵⁷ friend⁵³⁸⁴ Lazarus²⁹⁷⁶ sleepeth;²⁸³⁷ but²³⁵ I go,⁴¹⁹⁸ that²⁴⁴³ I may awake him out of sleep.^{1852 846}

12  Then³⁷⁶⁷ said²⁰³⁶ his⁸⁴⁶ disciples,³¹⁰¹ Lord,²⁹⁶² if¹⁴⁸⁷ he sleep,²⁸³⁷ he shall do well.⁴⁹⁸²

13  Howbeit¹¹⁶¹ Jesus²⁴²⁴ spake²⁰⁴⁶ of⁴⁰¹² his⁸⁴⁶ death:²²⁸⁸ but¹¹⁶¹ they¹⁵⁶⁵ thought¹³⁸⁰ that³⁷⁵⁴ he had spoken³⁰⁰⁴ of⁴⁰¹² taking of rest²⁸³⁸ in sleep.⁵²⁵⁸

14  Then^{5119 3767} said²⁰³⁶ Jesus²⁴²⁴ unto them⁸⁴⁶ plainly,³⁹⁵⁴ Lazarus²⁹⁷⁶ is dead.⁵⁹⁹

15  And²⁵³² I am glad⁵⁴⁶³ for your sakes^{1223 5209} that³⁷⁵⁴ I was²²⁵² not³⁷⁵⁶ there,¹⁵⁶³ to the intent²⁴⁴³ ye may believe;⁴¹⁰⁰ nevertheless²³⁵ let us go⁷¹ unto⁴³¹⁴ him.⁸⁴⁶

16  Then³⁷⁶⁷ said²⁰³⁶ Thomas,²³⁸¹ which is called³⁰⁰⁴ Didymus,¹³²⁴ unto his fellow disciples,⁴⁸²⁷ Let us²²⁴⁹ also²⁵³² go,⁷¹ that²⁴⁴³ we may die⁵⁹⁹ with³³²⁶ him.⁸⁴⁶

17  Then³⁷⁶⁷ when Jesus²⁴²⁴ came,²⁰⁶⁴ he found²¹⁴⁷ that⁸⁴⁶ he had²¹⁹² lain in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ grave³⁴¹⁹ four⁵⁰⁶⁴ days²²⁵⁰ already.²²³⁵

18  Now¹¹⁶¹ Bethany⁹⁶³ was²²⁵⁸ nigh unto¹⁴⁵¹ Jerusalem,²⁴¹⁴ about⁵⁶¹³ fifteen¹¹⁷⁸ furlongs⁴⁷¹² off:⁵⁷⁵

19  And²⁵³² many⁴¹⁸³ of¹⁵³⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews²⁴⁵³ came²⁰⁶⁴ to⁴³¹⁴ Martha³¹³⁶ and²⁵³² Mary,³¹³⁷ to²⁴⁴³ comfort³⁸⁸⁸ them⁸⁴⁶ concerning⁴⁰¹² their⁸⁴⁶ brother.⁸⁰

20  Then³⁷⁶⁷ Martha,³¹³⁶ as soon as⁵⁶¹³ she heard¹⁹¹ that³⁷⁵⁴ Jesus²⁴²⁴ was coming,²⁰⁶⁴ went and met⁵²²¹ him:⁸⁴⁶ but¹¹⁶¹ Mary³¹³⁷ sat²⁵¹⁶ still in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ house.³⁶²⁴

21  Then³⁷⁶⁷ said²⁰³⁶ Martha³¹³⁶ unto⁴³¹⁴ Jesus,²⁴²⁴ Lord,²⁹⁶² if¹⁴⁸⁷ thou hadst been²²⁵⁸ here,⁵⁶⁰² my³⁴⁵⁰ brother⁸⁰ had not³⁷⁵⁶ died.^{2348 302}

22  But²³⁵ I know,¹⁴⁹² that³⁷⁵⁴ even²⁵³² now,³⁵⁶⁸ whatsoever³⁷⁴⁵ thou wilt ask^{154 302} of God,²³¹⁶ God²³¹⁶ will give¹³²⁵ it thee.⁴⁶⁷¹

23  Jesus²⁴²⁴ saith³⁰⁰⁴ unto her,⁸⁴⁶ Thy⁴⁶⁷⁵ brother⁸⁰ shall rise again.⁴⁵⁰

24  Martha³¹³⁶ saith³⁰⁰⁴ unto him,⁸⁴⁶ I know¹⁴⁹² that³⁷⁵⁴ he shall rise again⁴⁵⁰ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ resurrection³⁸⁶ at¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ last²⁰⁷⁸ day.²²⁵⁰

25  Jesus²⁴²⁴ said²⁰³⁶ unto her,⁸⁴⁶ I¹⁴⁷³ am¹⁵¹⁰ the³⁵⁸⁸ resurrection,³⁸⁶ and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ life:²²²² he that believeth⁴¹⁰⁰ in¹⁵¹⁹ me,¹⁶⁹¹ though²⁵⁷⁹ he were dead,⁵⁹⁹ yet shall he live:²¹⁹⁸

26  And²⁵³² whosoever³⁹⁵⁶ liveth²¹⁹⁸ and²⁵³² believeth⁴¹⁰⁰ in¹⁵¹⁹ me¹⁶⁹¹ shall never^{3364 1519 165} die.⁵⁹⁹ Believest⁴¹⁰⁰ thou this?⁵¹²⁴

27  She saith³⁰⁰⁴ unto him,⁸⁴⁶ Yea,³⁴⁸³ Lord:²⁹⁶² I¹⁴⁷³ believe⁴¹⁰⁰ that³⁷⁵⁴ thou⁴⁷⁷¹ art¹⁴⁸⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ Christ,⁵⁵⁴⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ Son⁵²⁰⁷ of God,²³¹⁶ which should come²⁰⁶⁴ into¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ world.²⁸⁸⁹

28  And²⁵³² when she had so⁵⁰²³ said,²⁰³⁶ she went her way,⁵⁶⁵ and²⁵³² called⁵⁴⁵⁵ Mary³¹³⁷ her⁸⁴⁸ sister⁷⁹ secretly,²⁹⁷⁷ saying,²⁰³⁶ The³⁵⁸⁸ Master¹³²⁰ is come,³⁹¹⁸ and²⁵³² calleth⁵⁴⁵⁵ for thee.⁴⁵⁷¹

29  As soon as⁵⁶¹³ she¹⁵⁶⁵ heard¹⁹¹ that, she arose¹⁴⁵³ quickly,⁵⁰³⁵ and²⁵³² came²⁰⁶⁴ unto⁴³¹⁴ him.⁸⁴⁶

30  Now¹¹⁶¹ Jesus²⁴²⁴ was not yet³⁷⁶⁸ come²⁰⁶⁴ into¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ town,²⁹⁶⁸ but²³⁵ was²²⁵⁸ in¹⁷²² that place⁵¹¹⁷ where³⁶⁹⁹ Martha³¹³⁶ met⁵²²¹ him.⁸⁴⁶

31  The³⁵⁸⁸ Jews²⁴⁵³ then³⁷⁶⁷ which were⁵⁶⁰⁷ with³³²⁶ her⁸⁴⁶ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ house,³⁶¹⁴ and²⁵³² comforted³⁸⁸⁸ her,⁸⁴⁶ when they saw¹⁴⁹² Mary,³¹³⁷ that³⁷⁵⁴ she rose up⁴⁵⁰ hastily⁵⁰³⁰ and²⁵³² went out,¹⁸³¹ followed¹⁹⁰ her,⁸⁴⁶ saying,³⁰⁰⁴ She goeth⁵²¹⁷ unto¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ grave³⁴¹⁹ to²⁴⁴³ weep²⁷⁹⁹ there.¹⁵⁶³

32  Then³⁷⁶⁷ when⁵⁶¹³ Mary³¹³⁷ was come²⁰⁶⁴ where³⁶⁹⁹ Jesus²⁴²⁴ was,²²⁵⁸ and saw¹⁴⁹² him,⁸⁴⁶ she fell down⁴⁰⁹⁸ at¹⁵¹⁹ his⁸⁴⁶ feet,⁴²²⁸ saying³⁰⁰⁴ unto him,⁸⁴⁶ Lord,²⁹⁶² if¹⁴⁸⁷ thou hadst been²²⁵⁸ here,⁵⁶⁰² my³⁴⁵⁰ brother⁸⁰ had not³⁷⁵⁶ died.^{599 302}

33  When⁵⁶¹³ Jesus²⁴²⁴ therefore³⁷⁶⁷ saw¹⁴⁹² her⁸⁴⁶ weeping,²⁷⁹⁹ and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews²⁴⁵³ also weeping²⁷⁹⁹ which came with⁴⁹⁰⁵ her,⁸⁴⁶ he groaned¹⁶⁹⁰ in the³⁵⁸⁸ spirit,⁴¹⁵¹ and²⁵³² was troubled.^{5015 1438}

34  And²⁵³² said,²⁰³⁶ Where⁴²²⁶ have ye laid⁵⁰⁸⁷ him? They⁸⁴⁶ said³⁰⁰⁴ unto him,⁸⁴⁶ Lord,²⁹⁶² come²⁰⁶⁴ and²⁵³² see.¹⁴⁹²

35  Jesus²⁴²⁴ wept.¹¹⁴⁵

36  Then³⁷⁶⁷ said³⁰⁰⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews,²⁴⁵³ Behold²³⁹⁶ how⁴⁴⁵⁹ he loved⁵³⁶⁸ him!⁸⁴⁶

37  And¹¹⁶¹ some⁵¹⁰⁰ of¹⁵³⁷ them⁸⁴⁶ said,²⁰³⁶ Could¹⁴¹⁰ not³⁷⁵⁶ this man,³⁷⁷⁸ which opened⁴⁵⁵ the³⁵⁸⁸ eyes³⁷⁸⁸ of the³⁵⁸⁸ blind,⁵¹⁸⁵ have caused⁴¹⁶⁰ that²⁴⁴³ even²⁵³² this man³⁷⁷⁸ should not³³⁶¹ have died?⁵⁹⁹

38  Jesus²⁴²⁴ therefore³⁷⁶⁷ again³⁸²⁵ groaning¹⁶⁹⁰ in¹⁷²² himself¹⁴³⁸ cometh²⁰⁶⁴ to¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ grave.³⁴¹⁹ It¹¹⁶¹ was²²⁵⁸ a cave,⁴⁶⁹³ and²⁵³² a stone³⁰³⁷ lay¹⁹⁴⁵ upon¹⁹⁰⁹ it.⁸⁴⁶

39  Jesus²⁴²⁴ said,³⁰⁰⁴ Take ye away¹⁴² the³⁵⁸⁸ stone.³⁰³⁷ Martha,³¹³⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ sister⁷⁹ of him that was dead,²³⁴⁸ saith³⁰⁰⁴ unto him,⁸⁴⁶ Lord,²⁹⁶² by this time²²³⁵ he stinketh:³⁶⁰⁵ for¹⁰⁶³ he hath been²⁰⁷⁶ dead four days.⁵⁰⁶⁶

40  Jesus²⁴²⁴ saith³⁰⁰⁴ unto her,⁸⁴⁶ Said²⁰³⁶ I not³⁷⁵⁶ unto thee,⁴⁶⁷¹ that,³⁷⁵⁴ if¹⁴³⁷ thou wouldest believe,⁴¹⁰⁰ thou shouldest see³⁷⁰⁰ the³⁵⁸⁸ glory¹³⁹¹ of God?²³¹⁶

41  Then³⁷⁶⁷ they took away¹⁴² the³⁵⁸⁸ stone³⁰³⁷ from the place where³⁷⁵⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ dead²³⁴⁸ was²²⁵⁸ laid.²⁷⁴⁹ And¹¹⁶¹ Jesus²⁴²⁴ lifted¹⁴² up⁵⁰⁷ his eyes,³⁷⁸⁸ and²⁵³² said,²⁰³⁶ Father,³⁹⁶² I thank²¹⁶⁸ thee⁴⁶⁷¹ that³⁷⁵⁴ thou hast heard¹⁹¹ me.³⁴⁵⁰

42  And¹¹⁶¹ I¹⁴⁷³ knew¹⁴⁹² that³⁷⁵⁴ thou hearest¹⁹¹ me³⁴⁵⁰ always:³⁸⁴² but²³⁵ because¹²²³ of the³⁵⁸⁸ people³⁷⁹³ which stand by⁴⁰²⁶ I said²⁰³⁶ it, that²⁴⁴³ they may believe⁴¹⁰⁰ that³⁷⁵⁴ thou⁴⁷⁷¹ hast sent⁶⁴⁹ me.³¹⁶⁵

43  And²⁵³² when he thus⁵⁰²³ had spoken,²⁰³⁶ he cried²⁹⁰⁵ with a loud³¹⁷³ voice,⁵⁴⁵⁶ Lazarus,²⁹⁷⁶ come¹²⁰⁴ forth.¹⁸⁵⁴

44  And²⁵³² he that was dead²³⁴⁸ came forth,¹⁸³¹ bound¹²¹⁰ hand⁵⁴⁹⁵ and²⁵³² foot⁴²²⁸ with graveclothes:²⁷⁵⁰ and²⁵³² his⁸⁴⁶ face³⁷⁹⁹ was bound about⁴⁰¹⁹ with a napkin.⁴⁶⁷⁶ Jesus²⁴²⁴ saith³⁰⁰⁴ unto them,⁸⁴⁶ Loose³⁰⁸⁹ him,⁸⁴⁶ and²⁵³² let⁸⁶³ him go.⁵²¹⁷

45  Then³⁷⁶⁷ many⁴¹⁸³ of¹⁵³⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews²⁴⁵³ which came²⁰⁶⁴ to⁴³¹⁴ Mary,³¹³⁷ and²⁵³² had seen²³⁰⁰ the things which³⁷³⁹ Jesus²⁴²⁴ did,⁴¹⁶⁰ believed⁴¹⁰⁰ on¹⁵¹⁹ him.⁸⁴⁶

46  But¹¹⁶¹ some⁵¹⁰⁰ of¹⁵³⁷ them⁸⁴⁶ went their ways⁵⁶⁵ to⁴³¹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ Pharisees,⁵³³⁰ and²⁵³² told²⁰³⁶ them⁸⁴⁶ what things³⁷³⁹ Jesus²⁴²⁴ had done.⁴¹⁶⁰

47  Then³⁷⁶⁷ gathered⁴⁸⁶³ the³⁵⁸⁸ chief priests⁷⁴⁹ and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ Pharisees⁵³³⁰ a council,⁴⁸⁹² and²⁵³² said,³⁰⁰⁴ What⁵¹⁰¹ do⁴¹⁶⁰ we? for³⁷⁵⁴ this³⁷⁷⁸ man⁴⁴⁴ doeth⁴¹⁶⁰ many⁴¹⁸³ miracles.⁴⁵⁹²

48  If¹⁴³⁷ we let him thus alone,^{863 846 3779} all³⁹⁵⁶ men will believe⁴¹⁰⁰ on¹⁵¹⁹ him:⁸⁴⁶ and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ Romans⁴⁵¹⁴ shall come²⁰⁶⁴ and²⁵³² take away¹⁴² both²⁵³² our²²⁵⁷ place⁵¹¹⁷ and²⁵³² nation.¹⁴⁸⁴

49  And^{1161 5100} one¹⁵²⁰ of¹⁵³⁷ them,⁸⁴⁶ named Caiaphas,²⁵³³ being⁵⁶⁰⁷ the high priest⁷⁴⁹ that same¹⁵⁶⁵ year,¹⁷⁶³ said²⁰³⁶ unto them,⁸⁴⁶ Ye⁵²¹⁰ know^{1492 3756} nothing at all,³⁷⁶²

50  Nor³⁷⁶¹ consider¹²⁶⁰ that³⁷⁵⁴ it is expedient⁴⁸⁵¹ for us,²²⁵⁴ that²⁴⁴³ one¹⁵²⁰ man⁴⁴⁴ should die⁵⁹⁹ for⁵²²⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ people,²⁹⁹² and²⁵³² that the³⁵⁸⁸ whole³⁶⁵⁰ nation¹⁴⁸⁴ perish⁶²² not.³³⁶¹

51  And¹¹⁶¹ this⁵¹²⁴ spake²⁰³⁶ he not³⁷⁵⁶ of⁵⁷⁵ himself:¹⁴³⁸ but²³⁵ being⁵⁶⁰⁷ high priest⁷⁴⁹ that¹⁵⁶⁵ year,¹⁷⁶³ he prophesied⁴³⁹⁵ that³⁷⁵⁴ Jesus²⁴²⁴ should³¹⁹⁵ die⁵⁹⁹ for⁵²²⁸ that nation;¹⁴⁸⁴

52  And²⁵³² not³⁷⁵⁶ for⁵²²⁸ that nation¹⁴⁸⁴ only,³⁴⁴⁰ but²³⁵ that²⁴⁴³ also²⁵³² he should gather together⁴⁸⁶³ in¹⁵¹⁹ one¹⁵²⁰ the³⁵⁸⁸ children⁵⁰⁴³ of God²³¹⁶ that were scattered abroad.¹²⁸⁷

53  Then³⁷⁶⁷ from⁵⁷⁵ that¹⁵⁶⁵ day²²⁵⁰ forth they took counsel together⁴⁸²³ for to²⁴⁴³ put him to death.^{615 846}

54  Jesus²⁴²⁴ therefore³⁷⁶⁷ walked⁴⁰⁴³ no³⁷⁵⁶ more²⁰⁸⁹ openly³⁹⁵⁴ among¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews;²⁴⁵³ but²³⁵ went⁵⁶⁵ thence¹⁵⁶⁴ unto¹⁵¹⁹ a country⁵⁵⁶¹ near to¹⁴⁵¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ wilderness,²⁰⁴⁸ into¹⁵¹⁹ a city⁴¹⁷² called³⁰⁰⁴ Ephraim,²¹⁸⁷ and there²⁵⁴⁶ continued¹³⁰⁴ with³³²⁶ his⁸⁴⁶ disciples.³¹⁰¹

Vul

1 Erat autem quidam languens Lazarus a Bethania, de castello Mariæ et Marthæ sororis ejus.

2 (Maria autem erat quæ unxit Dominum unguento, et extersit pedes ejus capillis suis: cujus frater Lazarus infirmabatur.)

3 Miserunt ergo sorores ejus ad eum dicentes: Domine, ecce quem amas infirmatur.

4 Audiens autem Jesus dixit eis: Infirmitas hæc non est ad mortem, sed pro gloria Dei, ut glorificetur Filius Dei per eam.

5 Diligebat autem Jesus Martham, et sororem ejus Mariam, et Lazarum.

6 Ut ergo audivit quia infirmabatur, tunc quidem mansit in eodem loco duobus diebus;

7 deinde post hæc dixit discipulis suis: Eamus in Judæam iterum.

8 Dicunt ei discipuli: Rabbi, nunc quærebant te Judæi lapidare, et iterum vadis illuc?

9 Respondit Jesus: Nonne duodecim sunt horæ diei? Si quis ambulaverit in die, non offendit, quia lucem hujus mundi videt:

10 si autem ambulaverit in nocte, offendit, quia lux non est in eo.

11 Hæc ait, et post hæc dixit eis: Lazarus amicus noster dormit: sed vado ut a somno excitem eum.

12 Dixerunt ergo discipuli ejus: Domine, si dormit, salvus erit.

13 Dixerat autem Jesus de morte ejus: illi autem putaverunt quia de dormitione somni diceret.

14 Tunc ergo Jesus dixit eis manifeste: Lazarus mortuus est:

15 et gaudeo propter vos, ut credatis, quoniam non eram ibi, sed eamus ad eum.

16 Dixit ergo Thomas, qui dicitur Didymus, ad condiscipulos: Eamus et nos, ut moriamur cum eo.

17 Venit itaque Jesus: et invenit eum quatuor dies jam in monumento habentem.

18 (Erat autem Bethania juxta Jerosolymam quasi stadiis quindecim.)

19 Multi autem ex Judæis venerant ad Martham et Mariam, ut consolarentur eas de fratre suo.

20 Martha ergo ut audivit quia Jesus venit, occurrit illi: Maria autem domi sedebat.

21 Dixit ergo Martha ad Jesum: Domine, si fuisses hic, frater meus non fuisset mortuus:

22 sed et nunc scio quia quæcumque poposceris a Deo, dabit tibi Deus.

23 Dicit illi Jesus: Resurget frater tuus.

24 Dicit ei Martha: Scio quia resurget in resurrectione in novissimo die.

25 Dixit ei Jesus: Ego sum resurrectio et vita: qui credit in me, etiam si mortuus fuerit, vivet:

26 et omnis qui vivit et credit in me, non morietur in æternum. Credis hoc?

27 Ait illi: Utique Domine, ego credidi quia tu es Christus, Filius Dei vivi, qui in hunc mundum venisti.

28 Et cum hæc dixisset, abiit, et vocavit Mariam sororem suam silentio, dicens: Magister adest, et vocat te.

29 Illa ut audivit, surgit cito, et venit ad eum;

30 nondum enim venerat Jesus in castellum: sed erat adhuc in illo loco, ubi occurrerat ei Martha.

31 Judæi ergo, qui erant cum ea in domo, et consolabantur eam, cum vidissent Mariam quia cito surrexit, et exiit, secuti sunt eam dicentes: Quia vadit ad monumentum, ut ploret ibi.

32 Maria ergo, cum venisset ubi erat Jesus, videns eum, cecidit ad pedes ejus, et dicit ei: Domine, si fuisses hic, non esset mortuus frater meus.

33 Jesus ergo, ut vidit eam plorantem, et Judæos, qui venerant cum ea, plorantes, infremuit spiritu, et turbavit seipsum,

34 et dixit: Ubi posuistis eum? Dicunt ei: Domine, veni, et vide.

35 Et lacrimatus est Jesus.

36 Dixerunt ergo Judæi: Ecce quomodo amabat eum.

37 Quidam autem ex ipsis dixerunt: Non poterat hic, qui aperuit oculos cæci nati, facere ut hic non moreretur?

38 Jesus ergo rursum fremens in semetipso, venit ad monumentum. Erat autem spelunca, et lapis superpositus erat ei.

39 Ait Jesus: Tollite lapidem. Dicit ei Martha, soror ejus qui mortuus fuerat: Domine, jam fœtet, quatriduanus est enim.

40 Dicit ei Jesus: Nonne dixi tibi quoniam si credideris, videbis gloriam Dei?

41 Tulerunt ergo lapidem: Jesus autem, elevatis sursum oculis, dixit: Pater, gratias ago tibi quoniam audisti me.

42 Ego autem sciebam quia semper me audis, sed propter populum qui circumstat, dixi: ut credant quia tu me misisti.

43 Hæc cum dixisset, voce magna clamavit: Lazare, veni foras.

44 Et statim prodiit qui fuerat mortuus, ligatus pedes, et manus institis, et facies illius sudario erat ligata. Dixit eis Jesus: Solvite eum et sinite abire.

45 Multi ergo ex Judæis, qui venerant ad Mariam, et Martham, et viderant quæ fecit Jesus, crediderunt in eum.

46 Quidam autem ex ipsis abierunt ad pharisæos, et dixerunt eis quæ fecit Jesus.

47 Collegerunt ergo pontifices et pharisæi concilium, et dicebant: Quid faciamus, quia hic homo multa signa facit?

48 Si dimittimus eum sic, omnes credent in eum, et venient Romani, et tollent nostrum locum, et gentem.

49 Unus autem ex ipsis, Caiphas nomine, cum esset pontifex anni illius, dixit eis: Vos nescitis quidquam,

50 nec cogitatis quia expedit vobis ut unus moriatur homo pro populo, et non tota gens pereat.

51 Hoc autem a semetipso non dixit: sed cum esset pontifex anni illius, prophetavit, quod Jesus moriturus erat pro gente,

52 et non tantum pro gente, sed ut filios Dei, qui erant dispersi, congregaret in unum.

53 Ab illo ergo die cogitaverunt ut interficerent eum.

54 Jesus ergo jam non in palam ambulabat apud Judæos, sed abiit in regionem juxta desertum, in civitatem quæ dicitur Ephrem, et ibi morabatur cum discipulis suis.

55 Proximum autem erat Pascha Judæorum, et ascenderunt multi Jerosolymam de regione ante Pascha, ut sanctificarent seipsos.

56 Quærebant ergo Jesum, et colloquebantur ad invicem, in templo stantes: Quid putatis, quia non venit ad diem festum?

57 Dederant autem pontifices et pharisæi mandatum ut si quis cognoverit ubi sit, indicet, ut apprehendant eum.
