يسوع ولعازر

1وَكَانَ إِنْسَانٌ مَرِيضاً، وَهُوَ لِعَازَرُ مِنْ بَيْتِ عَنْيَا، مِنْ قَرْيَةِ مَرْيَمَ وَمَرْثَا أُخْتِهَا.2وَكَانَتْ مَرْيَمُ، الَّتِي كَانَ لِعَازَرُ أَخُوهَا مَرِيضاً، هِيَ الَّتِي دَهَنَتِ الرَّبَّ بِطِيبٍ وَمَسَحَتْ رِجْلَيْهِ بِشَعْرِهَا.3فَأَرْسَلَتِ الأُخْتَانِ إِلَيْهِ قَائِلَتَيْنِ: يَا سَيِّدُ، هُوَذَا الَّذِي تُحِبُّهُ مَرِيضٌ.

4فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ يَسُوعُ قَالَ: هَذَا المَرَضُ لَيْسَ لِلْمَوْتِ بَلْ لأَجْلِ مَجْدِ اللهِ لِيَتَمَجَّدَ ابْنُ اللهِ بِهِ.5وَكَانَ يَسُوعُ يُحِبُّ مَرْثَا وَأُخْتَهَا وَلِعَازَرَ.6فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَنَّهُ مَرِيضٌ مَكَثَ حِينَئِذٍ فِي المَوْضِعِ الَّذِي كَانَ فِيهِ يَوْمَيْنِ.7ثُمَّ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ لِتَلاَمِيذِهِ: لِنَذْهَبْ إِلَى الْيَهُودِيَّةِ أَيْضاً.8قَالَ لَهُ التَّلاَمِيذُ: يَا مُعَلِّمُ، الآنَ كَانَ الْيَهُودُ يَطْلُبُونَ أَنْ يَرْجُمُوكَ وَتَذْهَبُ أَيْضاً إِلَى هُنَاكَ؟9أَجَابَ يَسُوعُ: أَلَيْسَتْ سَاعَاتُ النَّهَارِ اثْنَتَيْ عَشَرَةَ؟ إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَمْشِي فِي النَّهَارِ لاَ يَعْثُرُ لأَنَّهُ يَنْظُرُ نُورَ هَذَا الْعَالَمِ،10وَلَكِنْ إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَمْشِي فِي اللَّيْلِ يَعْثُرُ لأَنَّ النُّورَ لَيْسَ فِيهِ.11قَالَ هَذَا وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ لَهُمْ: لِعَازَرُ، حَبِيبُنَا، قَدْ نَامَ، لَكِنِّي أَذْهَبُ لأُوقِظَهُ.12فَقَالَ تَلاَمِيذُهُ: يَا سَيِّدُ، إِنْ كَانَ قَدْ نَامَ فَهُوَ يُشْفَى.13وَكَانَ يَسُوعُ يَقُولُ عَنْ مَوْتِهِ، وَهُمْ ظَنُّوا أَنَّهُ يَقُولُ عَنْ رُقَادِ النَّوْمِ.14فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ حِينَئِذٍ عَلاَنِيَةً: لِعَازَرُ مَاتَ.15وَأَنَا أَفْرَحُ لأَجْلِكُمْ إِنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ هُنَاكَ لِتُؤْمِنُوا، وَلَكِنْ لِنَذْهَبْ إِلَيْهِ.16فَقَالَ تُومَا، الَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ التَّوْأَمُ، لِلتَّلاَمِيذِ رُفَقَائِهِ: لِنَذْهَبْ نَحْنُ أَيْضاً لِكَيْ نَمُوتَ مَعَهُ.

يسوع يُقيم لعازر من الموت

17فَلَمَّا أَتَى يَسُوعُ وَجَدَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ صَارَ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةُ أَيَّامٍ فِي الْقَبْرِ.18وَكَانَتْ بَيْتُ عَنْيَا قَرِيبَةً مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ نَحْوَ خَمْسَ عَشَرَةَ غَلْوَةً.19وَكَانَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ قَدْ جَاءُوا إِلَى مَرْثَا وَمَرْيَمَ لِيُعَزُّوهُمَا عَنْ أَخِيهِمَا.20فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ مَرْثَا أَنَّ يَسُوعَ آتٍ لاَقَتْهُ، وَأَمَّا مَرْيَمُ فَاسْتَمَرَّتْ جَالِسَةً فِي الْبَيْتِ.21فَقَالَتْ مَرْثَا لِيَسُوعَ: يَا سَيِّدُ، لَوْ كُنْتَ هَهُنَا لَمْ يَمُتْ أَخِي.22لَكِنِّي الآنَ أَيْضاً أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ كُلَّ مَا تَطْلُبُ مِنَ اللهِ يُعْطِيكَ اللهُ إِيَّاهُ.23قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوعُ: سَيَقُومُ أَخُوكِ.24قَالَتْ لَهُ مَرْثَا: أَنَا أَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ سَيَقُومُ فِي الْقِيَامَةِ فِي الْيَوْمِ الأَخِيرِ.25قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوعُ: أَنَا هُوَ الْقِيَامَةُ وَالْحَيَاةُ، مَنْ آمَنَ بِي وَلَوْ مَاتَ فَسَيَحْيَا،26وَكُلُّ مَنْ كَانَ حَيّاً وَآمَنَ بِي فَلَنْ يَمُوتَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. أَتُؤْمِنِينَ بِهَذَا؟27قَالَتْ لَهُ: نَعَمْ، يَا سَيِّدُ، أَنَا قَدْ آمَنْتُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ المَسِيحُ ابْنُ اللهِ الآتِي إِلَى الْعَالَمِ.

28وَلَمَّا قَالَتْ هَذَا مَضَتْ وَدَعَتْ مَرْيَمَ أُخْتَهَا سِرّاً قَائِلَةً: المُعَلِّمُ قَدْ حَضَرَ وَهُوَ يَدْعُوكِ.29أَمَّا تِلْكَ فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ قَامَتْ سَرِيعاً وَجَاءَتْ إِلَيْهِ.30وَلَمْ يَكُنْ يَسُوعُ قَدْ جَاءَ إِلَى الْقَرْيَةِ بَلْ كَانَ فِي المَكَانِ الَّذِي لاَقَتْهُ فِيهِ مَرْثَا.31ثُمَّ إِنَّ الْيَهُودَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا مَعَهَا فِي الْبَيْتِ يُعَزُّونَهَا لَمَّا رَأَوْا مَرْيَمَ قَامَتْ عَاجِلاً وَخَرَجَتْ تَبِعُوهَا قَائِلِينَ: إِنَّهَا تَذْهَبُ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ لِتَبْكِيَ هُنَاكَ.32فَمَرْيَمُ لَمَّا أَتَتْ إِلَى حَيْثُ كَانَ يَسُوعُ وَرَأَتْهُ خَرَّتْ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ قَائِلَةً لَهُ: يَا سَيِّدُ، لَوْ كُنْتَ هَهُنَا لَمْ يَمُتْ أَخِي.33فَلَمَّا رَآهَا يَسُوعُ تَبْكِي وَالْيَهُودُ الَّذِينَ جَاءُوا مَعَهَا يَبْكُونَ انْزَعَجَ بِالرُّوحِ وَاضْطَرَبَ34وَقَالَ: أَيْنَ وَضَعْتُمُوهُ؟ قَالُوا لَهُ: يَا سَيِّدُ، تَعَالَ وَانْظُرْ.35بَكَى يَسُوعُ.36فَقَالَ الْيَهُودُ: انْظُرُوا كَيْفَ كَانَ يُحِبُّهُ.37وَقَالَ بَعْضٌ مِنْهُمْ: أَلَمْ يَقْدِرْ هَذَا، الَّذِي فَتَحَ عَيْنَيِ الأَعْمَى، أَنْ يَجْعَلَ هَذَا أَيْضاً لاَ يَمُوتُ؟

38فَانْزَعَجَ يَسُوعُ أَيْضاً فِي نَفْسِهِ وَجَاءَ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ. وَكَانَ مَغَارَةً وَقَدْ وُضِعَ عَلَيْهِ حَجَرٌ.39قَالَ يَسُوعُ: ارْفَعُوا الْحَجَرَ. قَالَتْ لَهُ مَرْثَا، أُخْتُ المَيْتِ: يَا سَيِّدُ، قَدْ أَنْتَنَ لأَنَّ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةَ أَيَّامٍ.40قَالَ لَهَا يَسُوعُ: أَلَمْ أَقُلْ لَكِ: إِنْ آمَنْتِ تَرَيْنَ مَجْدَ اللهِ؟41فَرَفَعُوا الْحَجَرَ حَيْثُ كَانَ المَيْتُ مَوْضُوعاً وَرَفَعَ يَسُوعُ عَيْنَيْهِ إِلَى فَوْقُ وَقَالَ: أَيُّهَا الآبُ، أَشْكُرُكَ لأَنَّكَ سَمِعْتَ لِي.42وَأَنَا عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكَ فِي كُلِّ حِينٍ تَسْمَعُ لِي، وَلَكِنْ لأَجْلِ هَذَا الْجَمْعِ الْوَاقِفِ قُلْتُ، لِيُؤْمِنُوا أَنَّكَ أَرْسَلْتَنِي.43وَلَمَّا قَالَ هَذَا صَرَخَ بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ: لِعَازَرُ، هَلُمَّ خَارِجاً.44فَخَرَجَ المَيْتُ وَيَدَاهُ وَرِجْلاَهُ مَرْبُوطَاتٌ بِأَقْمِطَةٍ وَوَجْهُهُ مَلْفُوفٌ بِمِنْدِيلٍ. فَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: حُلُّوهُ وَدَعَوْهُ يَذْهَبْ.

القرار في قتل يسوع

45فَكَثِيرُونَ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ الَّذِينَ جَاءُوا إِلَى مَرْيَمَ وَنَظَرُوا مَا فَعَلَ يَسُوعُ آمَنُوا بِهِ.46وَأَمَّا قَوْمٌ مِنْهُمْ فَمَضَوْا إِلَى الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ وَقَالُوا لَهُمْ عَمَّا فَعَلَ يَسُوعُ.47فَجَمَعَ رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ مَجْمَعاً وَقَالُوا: مَاذَا نَصْنَعُ؟ فَإِنَّ هَذَا الإِنْسَانَ يَعْمَلُ آيَاتٍ كَثِيرَةً.48إِنْ تَرَكْنَاهُ هَكَذَا يُؤْمِنُ الْجَمِيعُ بِهِ فَيَأْتِي الرُّومَانِيُّونَ وَيَأْخُذُونَ مَوْضِعَنَا وَأُمَّتَنَا.49فَقَالَ لَهُمْ وَاحِدٌ مِنْهُمْ، وَهُوَ قَيَافَا، كَانَ رَئِيساً لِلْكَهَنَةِ فِي تِلْكَ السَّنَةِ: أَنْتُمْ لَسْتُمْ تَعْرِفُونَ شَيْئاً،50وَلاَ تُفَكِّرُونَ أَنَّهُ خَيْرٌ لَنَا أَنْ يَمُوتَ إِنْسَانٌ وَاحِدٌ عَنِ الشَّعْبِ وَلاَ تَهْلِكَ الأُمَّةُ كُلُّهَا.51وَلَمْ يَقُلْ هَذَا مِنْ نَفْسِهِ بَلْ، إِذْ كَانَ رَئِيساً لِلْكَهَنَةِ فِي تِلْكَ السَّنَةِ، تَنَبَّأَ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ مُزْمِعٌ أَنْ يَمُوتَ عَنِ الأُمَّةِ،52وَلَيْسَ عَنِ الأُمَّةِ فَقَطْ بَلْ لِيَجْمَعَ أَبْنَاءَ اللهِ المُتَفَرِّقِينَ إِلَى وَاحِدٍ.

53فَمِنْ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ تَشَاوَرُوا لِيَقْتُلُوهُ.54فَلَمْ يَكُنْ يَسُوعُ أَيْضاً يَمْشِي بَيْنَ الْيَهُودِ عَلاَنِيَةً بَلْ مَضَى مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى الْكُورَةِ الْقَرِيبَةِ مِنَ الْبَرِّيَّةِ، إِلَى مَدِينَةٍ يُقَالُ لَهَا أَفْرَايِمُ، وَمَكَثَ هُنَاكَ مَعَ تَلاَمِيذِهِ.

55وَكَانَ فِصْحُ الْيَهُودِ قَرِيباً، فَصَعِدَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ الْكُوَرِ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ قَبْلَ الْفِصْحِ لِيُطَهِّرُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ.56فَكَانُوا يَطْلُبُونَ يَسُوعَ وَيَقُولُونَ فِيمَا بَيْنَهُمْ وَهُمْ وَاقِفُونَ فِي الْهَيْكَلِ: مَاذَا تَظُنُّونَ؟ هَلْ هُوَ لاَ يَأْتِي إِلَى الْعِيدِ؟57وَكَانَ أَيْضاً رُؤَسَاءُ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالْفَرِّيسِيُّونَ قَدْ أَصْدَرُوا أَمْراً أَنَّهُ إِنْ عَرَفَ أَحَدٌ أَيْنَ هُوَ فَلْيَدُلَّ عَلَيْهِ لِكَيْ يُمْسِكُوهُ.

1Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.2(It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)3Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.4When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.5Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.6When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.7Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.8His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?9Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.10But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.11These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.12Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.13Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.14Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.15And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.16Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.17Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.18Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:19And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.20Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house.21Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.22But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.23Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.24Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.25Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:26And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?27She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.28And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.29As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and came unto him.30Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.31The Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.32Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.33When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,34And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.35Jesus wept.36Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!37And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?38Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.39Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.40Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?41Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.42And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.43And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.44And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.45Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.46But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done.47Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.48If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation.49And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,50Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.51And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation;52And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.53Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death.54Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.55And the Jews’ passover was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.56Then sought they for Jesus, and spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?57Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he were, he should shew it, that they might take him.
