11:1 Now a certain [man] was sick, [named] El'azar, of Beit Anyah, the town of Miriyam and her achot (sister) Martha.
11:2 (It was [that] Miriyam which anointed Adonay with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother El'azar was sick.)
11:3 Therefore his achayot (sisters) sent unto him, saying, Adonay, Hinnei, he whom thou lovest is sick.
11:4 When Yeshua (ישוע) heard [that], he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of Elohim (אלהים), that BEN Elohim (אלהים) might be glorified thereby.
11:5 Now Yeshua (ישוע) loved Martha, and her achot (sister), and El'azar.
11:6 When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.
11:7 Then after that saith he to [his] talmidim, Let us go into Yehudah again.
11:8 [His] talmidim say unto him, Master, the Yehudim of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?
11:9 Yeshua (ישוע) 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.
11:10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
11:11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend El'azar sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.
11:12 Then said His Talmidim, Adonay, if he sleep, he shall do well.
11:13 Howbeit Yeshua (ישוע) spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
11:14 Then said Yeshua (ישוע) unto them plainly, El'azar is dead.
11:15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.
11:16 Then said Toma, which is called Didumos (twins), unto his fellow talmidim, Let us also go, that we may die with him.
11:17 Then when Yeshua (ישוע) came, he found that he had [lain] in the grave four days already.
11:18 Now Beit Anyah was nigh unto Yerushalayim, about fifteen furlongs off:
11:19 And many of the Yehudim came to Martha and Miriyam, to comfort them concerning their brother.
11:20 Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Yeshua (ישוע) was coming, went and met him: but Miriyam sat [still] in the bayit.
11:21 Then said Martha unto Yeshua (ישוע) , Adonay, if thou hadst been here, My brother had not died.
11:22 But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of Elohim (אלהים), Elohim (אלהים) will give [it] thee.
11:23 Yeshua (ישוע) saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.
11:24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the tekhiyyah at the Yom ha Acharon (last). (Dani'el 12:2)
11:25 Yeshua (ישוע) said unto her,
Ani Hu ha tekhiyyah (resurrection), ve ha chayim (life):
he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
11:26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die. Believest thou this?
11:27 She saith unto him, Yea, Adonay: I believe that thou art Ha Moshiach, BEN Elohim (אלהים), which should come into Olam Hazeh.
11:28 And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Miriyam her achot (sister) secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.
11:29 As soon as she heard [that], she arose quickly, and came unto him.
11:30 Now Yeshua (ישוע) was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.
11:31 The Yehudim then which were with her in the bayit, and comforted her, when they saw Miriyam, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.
11:32 Then when Miriyam was come where Yeshua (ישוע) was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Adonay, if thou hadst been here, My brother had not died.
11:33 When Yeshua (ישוע) therefore saw her weeping, and the Yehudim also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,
11:34 And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Adonay, come and see.
11:35 Yeshua (ישוע) wept.
11:36 Then said the Yehudim, Hinnei how he loved him!
11:37 And 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?
11:38 Yeshua (ישוע) therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.
11:39 Yeshua (ישוע) said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the achot (sister) of him that was dead, saith unto him, Adonay, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been [dead] four days.
11:40 Yeshua (ישוע) saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of Elohim (אלהים)?
11:41 Then they took away the stone [from the place] where the dead was laid. And Yeshua (ישוע) lifted up [his] eyes, and said, AVI, I thank thee that thou hast heard Me.
11:42 And 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.
11:43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, El'azar, come forth.
11:44 And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Yeshua (ישוע) saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.
11:45 Then many of the Yehudim which came to Miriyam, and had seen the things which Yeshua (ישוע) did, believed on him.
11:46 But some of them went their ways to the Prushim, and told them what things Yeshua (ישוע) had done.
11:47 Then gathered the Rashei Kohenim and the Prushim a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.
11:48 If we let him thus alone, all [men] will believe on him: and the Rhomaios shall come and take away both our place and nation.
11:49 And one of them, [named] Kayafas, being the Kohen Gadol that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,
11:50 Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.
11:51 And this spake he not of himself: but being Kohen Gadol that year, he prophesied that Yeshua (ישוע) should die for that nation;
11:52 And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of Elohim (אלהים) that were scattered abroad.
11:53 Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death.
11:54 Yeshua (ישוע) therefore walked no more openly among the Yehudim; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Efrayim, and there continued with His Talmidim.
11:55 And the Yehudim' Pesach was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country up to Yerushalayim before the Pesach, to purify themselves.
11:56 Then sought they for Yeshua (ישוע) , and spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?
11:57 Now both the Rashei Kohenim and the Prushim had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he were, he should shew [it], that they might take him.
