11 — Giovanni

1Now there was a certain man sick, named Lazarus, of Bethania, of the town of Mary and of Martha her sister.Era malato un tal Lazzaro del Borgo di Betania, patria di Maria, e di Marta sorelle.AND there vvas a certaine sicke man, Lazarus of Bethánia, of the tovvne of Marie and Martha her sister. (Erat autem quidem languens Lazarus a Bethania, de castello Mariæ et Marthæ sororis ejus. 2(And Mary was she that anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair: whose brother Lazarus was sick.)(Maria era quella, che unse con unguento il Signore, e asciugogli i piedi co' suoi capelli, il di cui fratello Lazzaro era malato).And Marie vvas she that anointed our Lord vvith ointemēt, and vviped his feete vvith her heare: vvhose brother Lazarus vvas sicke.)(Maria autem erat quæ unxit Dominum unguento, et extersit pedes ejus capillis suis: cujus frater Lazarus infirmabatur.) 3His sisters therefore sent to him, saying: Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.Mandarono dunque a dirgli le sorelle: Signore, ecco, che colui, che tu ami è malato.His sisters therfore sent to him saying, Lord, behold, he vvhom thou louest, is sicke.Miserunt ergo sorores ejus ad eum dicentes: Domine, ecce quem amas infirmatur. 4And Jesus hearing it, said to them: This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God: that the Son of God may be glorified by it.Udito questo, disse Gesù: Questa malattia non è per morte, ma per glorie di Dio, affinchè quindi sia glorificato il Figliuolo di Dio.And IESVS hearing, said to them, This sicknesse is not to death, but for the glorie of God: that the sonne of God may be glorified by it.Audiens autem Jesus dixit eis: Infirmitas hæc non est ad mortem, sed pro gloria Dei, ut glorificetur Filius Dei per eam. 5Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister Mary and Lazarus.Voleva bene Gesù a Marta, e Maria sua sorella, e a Lazzaro.And IESVS loued Martha, and her sister Marie, and Lazarus.Diligebat autem Jesus Martham, et sororem ejus Mariam, et Lazarum. 6When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he still remained in the same place two days.Sentito adunque che ebbe, come questi era malato, si fermò allora due dì nello stesso luogo.As he heard therfore that he vvas sicke, then he taried in the same place tvvo daies:Ut ergo audivit quia infirmabatur, tunc quidem mansit in eodem loco duobus diebus; 7Then after that, he said to his disciples: Let us go into Judea again.Dopo di che disse a' discepoli: Andiam di nuovo nella Giudea.then after this he saith to his Disciples, Let vs goe into Ievvrie againe.deinde post hæc dixit discipulis suis: Eamus in Judæam iterum.

8The disciples say to him: Rabbi, the Jews but now sought to stone thee. And goest thou thither again?Gli dissero i discepoli: Maestro, or ora cercavano i Giudei di lapidarti, di nuovo torni in là?The Disciples say to him, Rabbi, novv the Ievves sought to stone thee: and goest thou thither againe?Dicunt ei discipuli: Rabbi, nunc quærebant te Judæi lapidare, et iterum vadis illuc ? 9Jesus answered: Are there not twelve hours of the day? If a man walk in the day he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world:Rispose Gesù: Non sono elleno dodici le ore del giorno? Quand'uno cammina di giorno, non inciampa, perché vede la luce di questo mondo:IESVS ansvvered, Are there not tvvelue houres of the day? If a man vvalke in the day, he stumbleth not: because he seeth the light of this vvorld:Respondit Jesus: Nonne duodecim sunt horæ diei ? Si quis ambulaverit in die, non offendit, quia lucem hujus mundi videt: 10But if he walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.Quando poi uno cammina di notte, inciampa, perché non ha lume.but if he walke in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.si autem ambulaverit in nocte, offendit, quia lux non est in eo. 11These things he said; and after that he said to them: Lazarus our friend sleepeth: but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.Così parlò, e dopo di questo, disse loro: Il nostro amico Lazzaro dorme, ma vo a svegliarlo dal sonno.These things he said: and after this he saith to them, Lazarus our frende sleepeth: but I goe that I may raise him from sleepe.Hæc ait, et post hæc dixit eis: Lazarus amicus noster dormit: sed vado ut a somno excitem eum. 12His disciples therefore said: Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.Dissero perciò i suoi discepoli: Signore, se dorme, sarà in salvo.His Disciples therfore said, Lord, if he sleepe, he shal be safe.Dixerunt ergo discipuli ejus: Domine, si dormit, salvus erit. 13But Jesus spoke of his death: and they thought that he spoke of the repose of sleep.Ma Gesù aveva parlato della di lui morte: ed essi avevan creduto, che parlasse del dormire di uno, che ha sonno.but IESVS spake of his death: & they though that he spake of the sleeping of sleepe.Dixerat autem Jesus de morte ejus: illi autem putaverunt quia de dormitione somni diceret. 14Then therefore Jesus said to them plainly: Lazarus is dead.Allora però disse loro chiaramente Gesù: Lazzaro è morto.Then therfore IESVS said to them plainely, Lazarus is dead:Tunc ergo Jesus dixit eis manifeste: Lazarus mortuus est:

15And I am glad, for your sakes; that I was not there, that you may believe. But, let us go to him.E ho piacere per ragione di voi di non essere stato là, affinchè crediate: ma andiamo a lui.and I am glad for your sake, that you may beleeue, because I vvas not there. but let vs goe to him.et gaudeo propter vos, ut credatis, quoniam non eram ibi, sed eamus ad eum. 16Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples: Let us also go, that we may die with him.Disse adunque Tommaso, soprannominato Didimo, ai condiscepoli: Andiamo anche noi, e muoiamo con lui.Thomas therfore, vvho is called Didymus, said to his condisciples, Let vs also goe, to die vvith him.Dixit ergo Thomas, qui dicitur Didymus, ad condiscipulos: Eamus et nos, ut moriamur cum eo. 17Jesus therefore came: and found that he had been four days already in the grave.Arrivato Gesù, trovollo già da quattro giorni sepolto.IESVS therfore came, and found him novv hauing been foure daies in the graue. (Venit itaque Jesus: et invenit eum quatuor dies jam in monumento habentem. 18(Now Bethania was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off.)(Era Betania circa quindici stadj vicina a Gerusalemme).and Bethánia vvas nigh to Hierusalem about fiftene furlonges.)(Erat autem Bethania juxta Jerosolymam quasi stadiis quindecim.) 19And many of the Jews were come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.E molti Giudei erano venuti da Marta, e Maria per consolarle riguardo; il loro fratello.And many of the Ievves vvere come to Martha and Marie, to comfort them concerning theire brother.Multi autem ex Judæis venerant ad Martham et Mariam, ut consolarentur eas de fratre suo. 20Martha therefore, as soon as she heard that Jesus was come, went to meet him: but Mary sat at home.Marta però, subito che ebbe sentito, che veniva Gesù, andogli incontro: e Maria stava sedendo in casa.Martha therfore vvhen she heard that IESVS vvas come, vvent to meete him: but Marie sat at home.Martha ergo ut audivit quia Jesus venit, occurrit illi: Maria autem domi sedebat. 21Martha therefore said to Jesus: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.Disse adunque Marta a Gesù: Signore, se eri qui, non moriva mio fratello.Martha therfore said to IESVS, Lord if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.Dixit ergo Martha ad Jesum: Domine, si fuisses hic, frater meus non fuisset mortuus: 22But now also I know that whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.Ma anche adesso so, che qualunque cosa chiederai a Dio, Dio te la concederà.but novv also I knovv that vvhat things soeuer thou shalt aske of God, God vvil giue thee.sed et nunc scio quia quæcumque poposceris a Deo, dabit tibi Deus.

23Jesus saith to her: Thy brother shall rise again.Dissele Gesù: Tuo fratello risorgerà.IESVS saith to her, Thy brother shal rise againe.Dicit illi Jesus: Resurget frater tuus. 24Martha saith to him: I know that he shall rise again, in the resurrection at the last day.Risposegli Marta: So, che risorgerà nella risurrezione in quell'ultimo giorno.Martha saith to him, I knovv that he shal rise againe in the resurrection, in the last day.Dicit ei Martha: Scio quia resurget in resurrectione in novissimo die. 25Jesus said to her: I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, although he be dead, shall live:Dissele Gesù: Io sono la risurrezione, e la vita: chi in me crede, sebben sia morto, viverà.IESVS said to her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that beleeueth in me, although he be dead, shal liue.Dixit ei Jesus: Ego sum resurrectio et vita: qui credit in me, etiam si mortuus fuerit, vivet: 26And every one that liveth and believeth in me shall not die for ever. Believest thou this?E chiunque vive, e crede in me, non morrà in eterno. Credi tu questo?and euery one that liueth, and beleeueth in me, shal not die for euer, Beleeuest thou this?et omnis qui vivit et credit in me, non morietur in æternum. Credis hoc ? 27She saith to him: Yea, Lord, I have believed that thou art Christ, the Son of the living God, who art come into this world.Risposegli: Si, o Signore, io ho creduto, che tu se' il Cristo, il Figliuolo di Dio vivo, che se' venuto in questo mondo.She saith to him, Yea Lord, I haue beleeued that thou art CHRIST the sonne of God that art come into this vvorld.Ait illi: Utique Domine, ego credidi quia tu es Christus, Filius Dei vivi, qui in hunc mundum venisti. 28And when she had said these things, she went and called her sister Mary secretly, saying: The master is come and calleth for thee.E detto questo, andò, e chiamò ci nascosto Maria sua sorella, dicendole: E qui il Maestro, e ti chiama.And vvhen she had said these things, she vvent, and called Marie her sister secretely, saying, The maister is come, & calleth thee.Et cum hæc dixisset, abiit, et vocavit Mariam sororem suam silentio, dicens: Magister adest, et vocat te. 29She, as soon as she heard this, riseth quickly and cometh to him.Ella appena udito questo, alzossi in fretta, e andò da lui:She, vvhē she heard, riseth quickely, & commeth to him.Illa ut audivit, surgit cito, et venit ad eum;

30For Jesus was not yet come into the town: but he was still in that place where Martha had met him.Imperocché non era per anco Gesù entrato nel borgo: ma era tuttavia in quel luogo, dove Marta era andata ad incontrarlo.For IESVS was not yet come into the towne: but he vvas yet in that place vvhere Martha had mette him.nondum enim venerat Jesus in castellum: sed erat adhuc in illo loco, ubi occurrerat ei Martha. 31The Jews therefore, who were with her in the house and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up speedily and went out, followed her, saying: She goeth to the grave to weep there.I Giudei perciò, che erano in casa con essa, e la racconsolavano, veduto avendo Maria alzarsi in fretta, e uscir fuori, la seguitarono, dicendo: Ella va al sepolcro per ivi piangere.The Ievves therfore that vvere vvith her in the house and did comfort her, vvhen they savv Marie that she rose quickly and vvent forth, folovved her, saying, That she goeth to the graue, to vveepe there.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. 32When Mary therefore was come where Jesus was, seeing him, she fell down at his feet and saith to him. Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.Maria però, arrivata che fu, dove era Gesù, e vedutolo, gittossi a' suoi piedi, e disselli: Signore, se eri qui, non moriva mio fratello.Marie therfore vvhen she vvas come vvhere IESVS vvas, seeing him, fel at his feete, and saith to him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.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. 33Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews that were come with her weeping, groaned in the spirit and troubled himself,Gesù allora vedendo lei piagnente, e piagnenti i Giudei, che eran venuti con essa, fremè interiormente, e turbò se stesso,IESVS therfore vvhen he savv her vveeping, and the Ievves that vvere come vvith her, vveeping, he groned in spirit, and troubled him self,Jesus ergo, ut vidit eam plorantem, et Judæos, qui venerant cum ea, plorantes, infremuit spiritu, et turbavit seipsum, 34And said: Where have you laid him? They say to him: Lord, come and see.E disse: Dove l'avete messo? Gli risposero: Signore, vieni, e vedi.and said, Vvhere haue you laid him? They say to him, Lord, come and see.et dixit: Ubi posuistis eum ? Dicunt ei: Domine, veni, et vide. 35And Jesus wept.E a Gesù venner le lagrime.And IESVS vvept.Et lacrimatus est Jesus.

36The Jews therefore said: Behold how he loved him.Disser perciò i Giudei: Vedete, com'ei lo amava.The Ievves therfore said, Behold hovv he loued him.Dixerunt ergo Judæi: Ecce quomodo amabat eum. 37But some of them said: Could not he that opened the eyes of the man born blind have caused that this man should not die?Ma taluni di essi dissero: E non poteva costui, che apri gli occhi al cieco nato, fare ancora, che questi non morisse?But certaine of them said, Could not he that opened the eies of the blinde man, make that this man should not die?Quidam autem ex ipsis dixerunt: Non poterat hic, qui aperuit oculos cæci nati, facere ut hic non moreretur ? 38Jesus therefore again groaning in himself, cometh to the sepulchre. Now it was a cave; and a stone was laid over it.Ma Gesù di nuovo fremendo interiormente, arrivò al sepolcro, che era una caverna, alla quale era stata soprapposta una lapida.IESVS therfore againe groning in him self, commeth to the graue. and it vvas a caue: and a stone vvas laid ouer it.Jesus ergo rursum fremens in semetipso, venit ad monumentum. Erat autem spelunca, et lapis superpositus erat ei. 39Jesus saith: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him: Lord, by this time he stinketh, for he is now of four days.Disse Gesù: Togliete via la lapida. Dissegli Marta, sorella del defunto: Signore, ci puzza già, perché è di quattro giorni.IESVS saith, Take avvay the stone. Martha the sister of him that vvas dead, saith to him, Lord, novv he stinketh, for he is novv of foure daies.Ait Jesus: Tollite lapidem. Dicit ei Martha, soror ejus qui mortuus fuerat: Domine, jam fœtet, quatriduanus est enim. 40Jesus saith to her: Did not I say to thee that if thou believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?Risposele Gesù: Non ti ho io detto, che se crederai, vedrai la gloria di Dio?IESVS saith to her, Did not I say to thee, that if thou beleeue, thou shalt see the glorie of God?Dicit ei Jesus: Nonne dixi tibi quoniam si credideris, videbis gloriam Dei ? 41They took therefore the stone away. And Jesus lifting up his eyes, said: Father, I give thee thanks that thou hast heard me.Levaron dunque la pietra: e Gesù alzò in alto gli occhi, e disse: Padre, rendo a te grazie, perché mi hai esaudito.They tooke therfore the stone avvay. And IESVS lifting his eies vpvvard, said, Father, I giue thee thankes that thou hast heard me.Tulerunt ergo lapidem: Jesus autem, elevatis sursum oculis, dixit: Pater, gratias ago tibi quoniam audisti me.

42And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people who stand about have I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.Io però sapeva, che sempre mi esaudisci, ma l'ho detto per causa del popolo, che sta intorno: affinchè credano, che tu mi hai mandato.and I did knovv that thou doest alvvaies heare me, but for the people that standeth about, haue I said it, that they may beleeue that thou hast sent me.Ego autem sciebam quia semper me audis, sed propter populum qui circumstat, dixi: ut credant quia tu me misisti. 43When he had said these things, he cried with a loud voice: Lazarus, come forth.E detto questo, con voce sonora gridò: Lazzaro, vien fuora.Vvhen he had said these things, he cried vvith a loude voice, Lazarus, come forth.Hæc cum dixisset, voce magna clamavit: Lazare, veni foras. 44And presently he that had been dead came forth, bound feet and hands with winding bands. And his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus said to them: Loose him and let him go.E usci subito fuora il morto, legati con fasce i piedi, e le mani, e coperto il volto con un sudario. E Gesù disse loro: Scioglietelo, e lasciatelo andare.And forthvvith he came forth that had been dead, bound feete and handes vvith vvinding bandes, and his face vvas tied vvith a napkin. IESVS said to them, Loose him, and let him goe.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. 45Many therefore of the Jews, who were come to Mary and Martha and had seen the things that Jesus did, believed in him.Molti perciò di que' Giudei, che erano accorsi da Maria, e da Marta, e avevano veduto quello, che Gesù fatto aveva, credettero in lui.Many therfore of the Ievves that vvere come to Marie and Martha, and had seen the things that IESVS did, beleeued in him.Multi ergo ex Judæis, qui venerant ad Mariam, et Martham, et viderant quæ fecit Jesus, crediderunt in eum. 46But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them the things that Jesus had done.Ma alcuni di essi andarono dai Farisei, e gli raccontarono quel, che aveva fatto Gesù.And certaine of them vvent to the Pharisees, and told them the things that IESVS did.Quidam autem ex ipsis abierunt ad pharisæos, et dixerunt eis quæ fecit Jesus. 47The chief priests, therefore, and the Pharisees gathered a council and said: What do we, for this man doth many miracles?Radunarono perciò i Pontefici, e i Farisei il consiglio, e dicevano: Che facciam noi? quest'uomo fa molti miracoli.The cheefe priests therfore and the pharisees gathered a councel, and said, Vvhat doe vve, for this man doeth many signes.Collegerunt ergo pontifices et pharisæi concilium, et dicebant: Quid faciamus, quia hic homo multa signa facit ?

48If we let him alone so, all will believe in him; and the Romans will come, and take away our place and nation.Se lo lasciam fare così, tutti crederanno in lui: e verranno i Romani, e stermineranno il nostre paese, e la nazione.If vve let him alone so, al vvil beleeue in him: and the Romanes vvil come, and take avvay our place and nation.Si dimittimus eum sic, omnes credent in eum, et venient Romani, et tollent nostrum locum, et gentem. 49But one of them, named Caiphas, being the high priest that year, said to them: You know nothing.Ma uno di essi, per nome Caifa, che era in quell'anno Pontefice, disse loro: Voi non sapete nulla,But one of them named Caiphas, being the high priest of that yere, said to them, You knovv nothing,Unus autem ex ipsis, Caiphas nomine, cum esset pontifex anni illius, dixit eis: Vos nescitis quidquam, 50Neither do you consider that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people and that the whole nation perish not.Né riflettete, che torna conto a noi, che un uomo muoia pel popolo, e la nazione tutta non perisca.neither doe you cōsider that it is expedient for vs that one man die for the people, and the vvhole natiō perish not.nec cogitatis quia expedit vobis ut unus moriatur homo pro populo, et non tota gens pereat. 51And this he spoke not of himself: but being the high priest of that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation.E questo non lo disse egli di suo capo: ma essendo Pontefice di quell'anno profetò, che Gesù era per morire per la nazione.And this he said not of him self: but being the high priest of that yere, he prophecied that IESVS should die for the nation:Hoc autem a semetipso non dixit: sed cum esset pontifex anni illius, prophetavit, quod Jesus moriturus erat pro gente, 52And not only for the nation, but to gather together in one the children of God that were dispersed.E non solo per la nazione, ma ancora per raunare insieme i figliuoli di Dio, che eran dispersi.and not only for the nation, but to gather into one the children of God that vvere dispersed.et non tantum pro gente, sed ut filios Dei, qui erant dispersi, congregaret in unum. 53From that day therefore they devised to put him to death.Quindi è, che da quel giorno pensarono a dargli morte.From that day therfore they deuised to kil him.Ab illo ergo die cogitaverunt ut interficerent eum. 54Wherefore Jesus walked no more openly among the Jews: but he went into a country near the desert, unto a city that is called Ephrem. And there he abode with his disciples.Gesù adunque non più conversava in pubblico tra' Giudei, ma andò in una regione vicina al deserto, in una città chiamata Efrem, e quivi si stava co' suoi discepoli.IESVS therfore vvalked no more openly among the Ievves, but he vvent into the countrie beside the desert vnto a citie that is called Ephrem, and there he abode vvith his Disciples.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.

55And the pasch of the Jews was at hand: and many from the country went up to Jerusalem, before the pasch, to purify themselves.Ed era vicina la Pasqua de' Giudei, e molti di quel paese andarono a Gerusalemme prima della Pasqua per parificarsi.And the Pasche of the Ievves vvas at hand: and many of the countrie vvent vp to Hierusalem before the Pasche to sanctifie them selues.Proximum autem erat Pascha Judæorum, et ascenderunt multi Jerosolymam de regione ante Pascha, ut sanctificarent seipsos. 56They sought therefore for Jesus; and they discoursed one with another, standing in the temple: What think you that he is not come to the festival day? And the chief priests and Pharisees had given a commandment that, if any man knew where he was, he should tell, that they might apprehend him.Cercavano pertanto di Gesù, e dicevano tra loro, stando nel Tempio: Che ve ne pare del non esser lui venuto alla festa?They sought IESVS therfore: and they communed one vvith an other, standing in the temple, Vvhat thinke you, in that he is not come to the festiual day? And the cheefe Priests & Pharisees had giuen cōmaundemēt, that if any man should knovv vvhere he vvas, he should tel, that they might apprehend him.Quærebant ergo Jesum, et colloquebantur ad invicem, in templo stantes: Quid putatis, quia non venit ad diem festum ? 57E i Pontefici, e i Farisei avevano mandato un ordine, che chi sapesse, dove egli si fosse, ne desse avviso, affine di averlo nelle mani.Dederant autem pontifices et pharisæi mandatum ut si quis cognoverit ubi sit, indicet, ut apprehendant eum.
