Lazarus Dies
2 And Mary was the one anointing the Lord with myrrh, and wiping His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
2 (It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)
2 It was the Mary who (C)anointed (D)the Lord with ointment, and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
2 Mary was the one who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped His feet with her hair,(C) and it was her brother Lazarus who was sick.
2 Mary was the woman who anointed the Lord with perfume and wiped his feet with her hair. Her brother Lazarus was the one who was ill.
3 Then the sisters sent to Him, saying, Lord, behold the one whom thou lovest is sick.
3 Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.
3 So the sisters sent a message to Him: “Lord, the one You love is sick.”
3 So the sisters sent word to Jesus and told him, "Lord, the one whom you love is ill."
4 And Jesus hearing said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.
4 When 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.
4 But when Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness is not to end in death, but for (G)the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified by it.”
4 When Jesus heard it, He said, “This sickness will not end in death but is for the glory of God,(D) so that the Son of God(E) may be glorified through it.”
4 But when Jesus heard it, he said, "This illness isn't meant to end in death. It's for God's glory, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it."
6 Therefore when He heard that he was sick, He then remained two days in the place in which He was.
6 When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.
6 So when He heard that he was sick, He then stayed two days longer in the place where He was.
6 So when He heard that he was sick, He stayed two more days in the place where He was.
6 Yet, when he heard that Lazarus was ill, he stayed where he was for two more days.
8 The disciples said to Him, Master, the Jews were but now seeking to stone thee; dost thou go hither again?
8 His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?
8 The disciples *said to Him, “(J)Rabbi, the Jews were just now seeking (K)to stone You, and are You going there again?”
8 “Rabbi,”(G) the disciples told Him, “just now the Jews tried to stone You,(H) and You’re going there again?”
8 The disciples told him, "Rabbi, the Jewish leaders were just now trying to stone you to death, and you are going back there again?"
9 Jesus responded, Are there not twelve hours of the day? If any one may walk in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world:
9 Jesus 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.
9 Jesus answered, “(L)Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
9 “Aren’t there 12 hours in a day?” Jesus answered. “If anyone walks during the day, he doesn’t stumble, because he sees the light of this world.(I)
9 Jesus replied, "There are twelve hours in the day, aren't there? If anyone walks during the day he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
10 if any one may walk in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.
10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
10 But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”
10 But if anyone walks at night he stumbles, because the light is not in him."
11 He spoke these things: and after this He says to them, Our friend Lazarus is asleep; and I go that I may awaken him.
11 These 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.
11 This He said, and after that He *said to them, “Our (M)friend Lazarus (N)has fallen asleep; but I go, so that I may awaken him out of sleep.”
11 He said this, and then He told them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep,(K) but I’m on My way to wake him up.”
11 These were the things he said. Then after this, he told them, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I'm leaving to wake him up."
12 Then the disciples said to Him, Lord, if he is asleep, he will be saved.
12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.
12 Then the disciples said to Him, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will get well.”
12 So the disciples told him, "Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will get well."
13 But Jesus spoke concerning his death: and they thought that He spoke concerning the rest of sleep.
13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
13 Jesus, however, was speaking about his death, but they thought He was speaking about natural sleep.
13 Jesus, however, had been speaking about his death, but they thought that he was speaking about resting or sleeping.
15 and I rejoice on account of you that I was not there, in order that you may believe; but let us go to him.
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.
15 and I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe; but let us go to him.”
15 I’m glad for you that I wasn’t there so that you may believe. But let’s go to him.”
15 For your sake I'm glad that I wasn't there, so that you may believe. But let's go to him."
16 Then Thomas, called Didymus, said to his fellow-disciples; Let us go too, that we may die with Him.
16 Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.
16 (P)Therefore Thomas, who is called (c)(Q)Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, so that we may die with Him.”
16 Then Thomas(L) (called “Twin”) said to his fellow disciples, “Let’s go so that we may die with Him.”
16 Then Thomas, who was called the Twin, told his fellow disciples, "Let's go, too, so that we may die with him!"

31 The 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.

47 Then the chief priests and Pharisees assembled the Sanhedrin, and continued to say, What are we doing? because this man is doing many miracles.
47 Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.
47 Therefore (BI)the chief priests and the Pharisees (BJ)convened a (BK)council, and were saying, “What are we doing? For this man is performing many (l)(BL)signs.
47 So the chief priests and the Pharisees convened the Sanhedrin(AM) and said, “What are we going to do since this man does many signs?

48 If we let Him go on like this, all men will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and take away both our (BM)place and our nation.”
48 If we let Him continue in this way, everyone will believe in Him! Then the Romans(AN) will come and remove both our place(e) and our nation.”
48 If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and destroy both our Temple and our nation."
49 But one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them,
49 And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,
49 But one of them, (BN)Caiaphas, (BO)who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all,
49 One of them, Caiaphas,(AO) who was high priest(AP) that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all!
49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, told them, "You don't know anything!
50 You know nothing, you do not consider that it is profitable to you, that one man may die for the people, and the whole nation perish not.
50 Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.
50 nor do you take into account that (BP)it is expedient for you that one man die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish.”
50 You’re not considering that it is to your(f) advantage that one man should die for the people rather than the whole nation perish.”(AQ)
50 You don't realize that it is better for you to have one man die for the people than to have the whole nation destroyed."
51 And he spoke this not of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was about to die for the nation.
51 And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation;

51 He did not say this on his own, but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus was going to die(AR) for the nation,
51 Now he did not say this on his own initiative. As high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,
52 And not only for the nation, but that He may gather into one the children of God dispersed abroad.
52 And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.
52 and not for the nation only, but in order that He might also (BR)gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.
52 and not only for the nation, but that he would also gather into one the children of God who were scattered abroad.

56 Then they were seeking Jesus, and standing in the temple, they were saying one with another, What seems to you; that He may not come to the feast?
56 Then 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?
56 So they (BX)were seeking for Jesus, and were saying to one another as they stood in the temple, “What do you think; that He will not come to the feast at all?”
56 They were looking for Jesus and asking one another as they stood in the temple complex:(AY) “What do you think? He won’t come to the festival,(AZ) will He?”
56 They kept looking for Jesus and saying to one another as they stood in the Temple, "What do you think? Surely he won't come to the festival, will he?"
57 And both the high priests and Pharisees had given commandment, if any one should know where He is, he should communicate it, in order that they might arrest Him.
57 Now 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.
57 Now (BY)the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where He was, he was to report it, so that they might seize Him.
57 The chief priests(BA) and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where He was, he should report it so they could arrest Him.
57 Now the high priests and the Pharisees had given orders that whoever knew where he was should tell them so that they could arrest him.
