Vangelo secondo Giovanni - John 11

GREEK BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Ητο δε τις ασθενης Λαζαρος απο Βηθανιας, εκ της κωμης της Μαριας και Μαρθας της αδελφης αυτης.	1 Now a man was ill, Lazarus from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
2 Η δε Μαρια ητο η αλειψασα τον Κυριον με μυρον και σπογγισασα τους ποδας αυτου με τας τριχας αυτης, της οποιας ο αδελφος Λαζαρος ησθενει.	2 Mary was the one who had anointed the Lord with perfumed oil and dried his feet with her hair; it was her brother Lazarus who was ill.
3 Απεστειλαν λοιπον αι αδελφαι προς αυτον, λεγουσαι? Κυριε, ιδου, εκεινος τον οποιον αγαπας, ασθενει.	3 So the sisters sent word to him, saying, "Master, the one you love is ill."
4 Και ακουσας ο Ιησους ειπεν? Αυτη η ασθενεια δεν ειναι προς θανατον, αλλ' υπερ της δοξης του Θεου, δια να δοξασθη ο Υιος του Θεου δι' αυτης.	4 When Jesus heard this he said, "This illness is not to end in death, but is for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it."
5 Ηγαπα δε ο Ιησους την Μαρθαν και την αδελφην αυτης και τον Λαζαρον.	5 Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
6 Καθως λοιπον ηκουσεν οτι ασθενει, τοτε μεν εμεινε δυο ημερας εν τω τοπω οπου ητο?	6 So when he heard that he was ill, he remained for two days in the place where he was.
7 επειτα μετα τουτο λεγει προς τους μαθητας? Ας υπαγωμεν εις την Ιουδαιαν παλιν.	7 Then after this he said to his disciples, "Let us go back to Judea."
8 Λεγουσι προς αυτον οι μαθηται? Ραββι, τωρα εζητουν να σε λιθοβολησωσιν οι Ιουδαιοι, και παλιν υπαγεις εκει;	8 The disciples said to him, "Rabbi, the Jews were just trying to stone you, and you want to go back there?"
9 Απεκριθη ο Ιησους? Δεν ειναι δωδεκα αι ωραι της ημερας; εαν τις περιπατη εν τη ημερα, δεν προσκοπτει, διοτι βλεπει το φως του κοσμου τουτου?	9 Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in a day? If one walks during the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
10 εαν τις ομως περιπατη εν τη νυκτι, προσκοπτει, διοτι το φως δεν ειναι εν αυτω.	10 But if one walks at night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him."
11 Ταυτα ειπε, και μετα τουτο λεγει προς αυτους? Λαζαρος ο φιλος ημων εκοιμηθη? αλλα υπαγω δια να εξυπνησω αυτον.	11 He said this, and then told them, "Our friend Lazarus is asleep, but I am going to awaken him."
12 Ειπον λοιπον οι μαθηται αυτου? Κυριε, αν εκοιμηθη, θελει σωθη.	12 So the disciples said to him, "Master, if he is asleep, he will be saved."
13 Αλλ' ο Ιησους ειχεν ειπει περι του θανατου αυτου? εκεινοι ομως ενομισαν οτι λεγει περι της κοιμησεως του υπνου.	13 But Jesus was talking about his death, while they thought that he meant ordinary sleep.
14 Τοτε λοιπον ειπε προς αυτους ο Ιησους παρρησια? Ο Λαζαρος απεθανε.	14 So then Jesus said to them clearly, "Lazarus has died.
15 Και χαιρω δια σας, δια να πιστευσητε, διοτι δεν ημην εκει? αλλ' ας υπαγωμεν προς αυτον.	15 And I am glad for you that I was not there, that you may believe. Let us go to him."
16 Ειπε δε ο Θωμας, ο λεγομενος Διδυμος προς τους συμμαθητας? Ας υπαγωμεν και ημεις, δια να αποθανωμεν μετ' αυτου.	16 So Thomas, called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, "Let us also go to die with him."
17 Ελθων λοιπον ο Ιησους ευρεν αυτον τεσσαρας ημερας εχοντα ηδη εν τω μνημειω.	17 When Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days.
18 Ητο δε η Βηθανια πλησιον των Ιεροσολυμων, απεχουσα ως δεκαπεντε σταδια.	18 Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, only about two miles away.
19 Και πολλοι εκ των Ιουδαιων ειχον ελθει προς την Μαρθαν και Μαριαν, δια να παρηγορησωσιν αυτας περι του αδελφου αυτων.	19 And many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother.
20 Η Μαρθα λοιπον, καθως ηκουσεν οτι ο Ιησους ερχεται, υπηντησεν αυτον? η δε Μαρια εκαθητο εν τω οικω.	20 When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him; but Mary sat at home.
21 Ειπε λοιπον η Μαρθα προς τον Ιησουν? Κυριε, εαν ησο εδω, ο αδελφος μου δεν ηθελεν αποθανει.	21 Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
22 Πλην και τωρα εξευρω οτι οσα ζητησης παρα του Θεου, θελει σοι δωσει ο Θεος.	22 (But) even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you."
23 Λεγει προς αυτην ο Ιησους? Ο αδελφος σου θελει αναστηθη.	23 Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise."
24 Λεγει προς αυτον η Μαρθα? Εξευρω οτι θελει αναστηθη εν τη αναστασει εν τη εσχατη ημερα.	24 Martha said to him, "I know he will rise, in the resurrection on the last day."
25 Ειπε προς αυτην ο Ιησους? Εγω ειμαι η αναστασις και η ζωη? ο πιστευων εις εμε, και αν αποθανη, θελει ζησει?	25 Jesus told her, "I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live,
26 και πας οστις ζη και πιστευει εις εμε δεν θελει αποθανει εις τον αιωνα. Πιστευεις τουτο;	26 and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"
27 Λεγει προς αυτον? Ναι, Κυριε, εγω επιστευσα οτι συ εισαι ο Χριστος, ο Υιος του Θεου, ο ερχομενος εις τον κοσμον.	27 She said to him, "Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, the one who is coming into the world."
28 Και αφου ειπε ταυτα, υπηγε και εφωναξε Μαριαν την αδελφην αυτης κρυφιως και ειπεν? Ο Διδασκαλος ηλθε και σε κραζει.	28 When she had said this, she went and called her sister Mary secretly, saying, "The teacher is here and is asking for you."
29 Εκεινη, καθως ηκουσε, σηκονεται ταχεως και ερχεται προς αυτον.	29 As soon as she heard this, she rose quickly and went to him.
30 Δεν ειχε δε ελθει ο Ιησους ετι εις την κωμην, αλλ' ητο εν τω τοπω, οπου υπηντησεν αυτον η Μαρθα.	30 For Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still where Martha had met him.
31 Οι Ιουδαιοι λοιπον, οι οντες μετ' αυτης εν τη οικια και παρηγορουντες αυτην, ιδοντες την Μαριαν οτι εσηκωθη ταχεως και εξηλθεν, ηκολουθησαν αυτην, λεγοντες οτι υπαγει εις το μνημειον, δια να κλαυση εκει.	31 So when the Jews who were with her in the house comforting her saw Mary get up quickly and go out, they followed her, presuming that she was going to the tomb to weep there.
32 Η Μαρια λοιπον καθως ηλθεν οπου ητο ο Ιησους, ιδουσα αυτον επεσεν εις τους ποδας αυτου, λεγουσα προς αυτον? Κυριε, εαν ησο εδω, ο αδελφος μου δεν ηθελεν αποθανει.	32 When Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said to him, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."
33 Ο δε Ιησους, καθως ειδεν αυτην κλαιουσαν και τους ελθοντας μετ' αυτης Ιουδαιους κλαιοντας, εστεναξεν εν τη ψυχη αυτου και εταραχθη,	33 When Jesus saw her weeping and the Jews who had come with her weeping, he became perturbed and deeply troubled,
34 και ειπε? Που εβαλετε αυτον; Λεγουσι προς αυτον? Κυριε, ελθε και ιδε.	34 and said, "Where have you laid him?" They said to him, "Sir, come and see."
35 Εδακρυσεν ο Ιησους.	35 And Jesus wept.
36 Ελεγον λοιπον οι Ιουδαιοι? Ιδε ποσον ηγαπα αυτον.	36 So the Jews said, "See how he loved him."
37 Τινες δε εξ αυτων ειπον? Δεν ηδυνατο ουτος, οστις ηνοιξε τους οφθαλμους του τυφλου, να καμη ωστε και ουτος να μη αποθανη;	37 But some of them said, "Could not the one who opened the eyes of the blind man have done something so that this man would not have died?"
38 Ο Ιησους λοιπον, παλιν στεναζων εν εαυτω, ερχεται εις το μνημειον? ητο δε σπηλαιον, και εκειτο λιθος επ' αυτου.	38 So Jesus, perturbed again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay across it.
39 Λεγει ο Ιησους? Σηκωσατε τον λιθον. Λεγει προς αυτον η αδελφη του αποθανοντος η Μαρθα? Κυριε, οζει ηδη? διοτι ειναι τεσσαρων ημερων.	39 Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the dead man's sister, said to him, "Lord, by now there will be a stench; he has been dead for four days."
40 Λεγει προς αυτην ο Ιησους? Δεν σοι ειπον οτι εαν πιστευσης, θελεις ιδει την δοξαν του Θεου;	40 Jesus said to her, "Did I not tell you that if you believe you will see the glory of God?"
41 Εσηκωσαν λοιπον τον λιθον, οπου εκειτο ο αποθανων. Ο δε Ιησους, υψωσας τους οφθαλμους ανω, ειπε? Πατερ, ευχαριστω σοι οτι μου ηκουσας.	41 So they took away the stone. And Jesus raised his eyes and said, "Father, I thank you for hearing me.
42 Και εγω εγνωριζον οτι παντοτε μου ακουεις? αλλα δια τον οχλον τον περιεστωτα ειπον τουτο, δια να πιστευσωσιν οτι συ με απεστειλας.	42 I know that you always hear me; but because of the crowd here I have said this, that they may believe that you sent me."
43 Και ταυτα ειπων, μετα φωνης μεγαλης εκραυγασε? Λαζαρε, ελθε εξω.	43 And when he had said this, he cried out in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!"
44 Και εξηλθεν ο τεθνηκως, δεδεμενος τους ποδας και τας χειρας με τα σαβανα, και το προσωπον αυτου ητο περιδεδεμενον με σουδαριον. Λεγει προς αυτους ο Ιησους? Λυσατε αυτον και αφησατε να υπαγη.	44 The dead man came out, tied hand and foot with burial bands, and his face was wrapped in a cloth. So Jesus said to them, "Untie him and let him go."
45 Πολλοι λοιπον εκ των Ιουδαιων, οιτινες ειχον ελθει εις την Μαριαν και ειδον οσα εκαμεν ο Ιησους, επιστευσαν εις αυτον.	45 Now many of the Jews who had come to Mary and seen what he had done began to believe in him.
46 Τινες δε εξ αυτων απηλθον προς τους Φαρισαιους και ειπον προς αυτους οσα εκαμεν ο Ιησους.	46 But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.
47 Συνεκροτησαν λοιπον συνεδριον οι αρχιερεις και οι Φαρισαιοι και ελεγον? Τι καμνομεν, διοτι ουτος ο ανθρωπος πολλα θαυματα καμνει.	47 So the chief priests and the Pharisees convened the Sanhedrin and said, "What are we going to do? This man is performing many signs.
48 Εαν αφησωμεν αυτον ουτω, παντες θελουσι πιστευσει εις αυτον, και θελουσιν ελθει οι Ρωμαιοι και αφανισει και τον τοπον ημων και το εθνος.	48 If we leave him alone, all will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our land and our nation."
49 Εις δε τις εξ αυτων, ο Καιαφας, οστις ητο αρχιερευς του ενιαυτου εκεινου, ειπε προς αυτους? Σεις δεν εξευρετε τιποτε,	49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing,
50 ουδε συλλογιζεσθε οτι μας συμφερει να αποθανη εις ανθρωπος υπερ του λαου και να μη απολεσθη ολον το εθνος.	50 nor do you consider that it is better for you that one man should die instead of the people, so that the whole nation may not perish."
51 Τουτο δε αφ' εαυτου δεν ειπεν, αλλ' αρχιερευς ων του ενιαυτου εκεινου προεφητευσεν οτι εμελλεν ο Ιησους να αποθανη υπερ του εθνους,	51 He did not say this on his own, but since he was high priest for that year, he prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation,
52 και ουχι μονον υπερ του εθνους, αλλα και δια να συναξη εις εν τα τεκνα του Θεου τα διεσκορπισμενα.	52 and not only for the nation, but also to gather into one the dispersed children of God.
53 Απ' εκεινης λοιπον της ημερας συνεβουλευθησαν, δια να θανατωσωσιν αυτον.	53 So from that day on they planned to kill him.
54 Οθεν ο Ιησους δεν περιεπατει πλεον παρρησια μεταξυ των Ιουδαιων, αλλ' ανεχωρησεν εκειθεν εις τον τοπον πλησιον της ερημου, εις πολιν λεγομενην Εφραιμ, και εκει διετριβε μετα των μαθητων αυτου.	54 So Jesus no longer walked about in public among the Jews, but he left for the region near the desert, to a town called Ephraim, and there he remained with his disciples.
55 Επλησιαζε δε το πασχα των Ιουδαιων, και πολλοι ανεβησαν εκ του τοπου εκεινου εις Ιεροσολυμα προ του πασχα, δια να καθαρισωσιν εαυτους.	55 Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before Passover to purify themselves.
56 Εζητουν λοιπον τον Ιησουν και ελεγον προς αλληλους ισταμενοι εν τω ιερω? Τι σας φαινεται οτι δεν θελει ελθει εις την εορτην;	56 They looked for Jesus and said to one another as they were in the temple area, "What do you think? That he will not come to the feast?"
57 Ειχον δε δωσει προσταγην και οι αρχιερεις και οι Φαρισαιοι, εαν τις μαθη που ειναι, να μηνυση, δια να πιασωσιν αυτον.	57 For the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, he should inform them, so that they might arrest him.
