- New Testament only; original spelling.
1 A certayne man was sicke named Lazarus of Bethania the toune of Mary and her sister Martha.
1 ESTABA entonces enfermo uno [llamado] Lázaro, de Bethania, la aldea de María y de Marta su hermana.
2 It was that Mary which annoynted Iesus with oyntment and wyped his fete with her heere whose brother Lazarus was sicke
2 (Y María, cuyo hermano Lázaro estaba enfermo, era la que ungió al Señor con ungüento, y limpió sus pies con sus cabellos.)
3 and his sisters sent vnto him sayinge. Lorde behold he whom thou lovest is sicke.
3 Enviaron, pues, sus hermanas á él, diciendo: Señor, he aquí, el que amas está enfermo.
4 When Iesus hearde that he sayd: this infirmite is not vnto deth but for the laude of God that the sonne of God myght be praysed by the reason of it.
4 Y oyéndolo Jesús, dijo: Esta enfermedad no es para muerte, mas por gloria de Dios, para que el Hijo de Dios sea glorificado por ella.
5 Iesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
5 Y amaba Jesús á Marta, y á su hermana, y á Lázaro.
6 After he hearde that he was sicke then aboode he two dayes still in the same place where he was.
6 Como oyó pues que estaba enfermo, quedóse aún dos días en aquel lugar donde estaba.
7 Then after that sayd he to his disciples: let us goo into Iewry agayne.
7 Luego, después de esto, dijo á los discípulos: Vamos á Judea otra vez.
8 His disciples sayde vnto him. Master the Iewes lately sought meanes to stone the and wilt thou goo thyther agayne?
8 Dícenle los discípulos: Rabbí, ahora procuraban los Judíos apedrearte, ¿y otra vez vas allá?
9 Iesus answered: are ther not twelve houres in the daye? Yf a man walke in the daye he stombleth not because he seith the lyght of this worlde.
9 Respondió Jesús: ¿No tiene el día doce horas? El que anduviere de día, no tropieza, porque ve la luz de este mundo.
10 But yf a man walke in the nyght he stombleth because ther is no lyght in him.
10 Mas el que anduviere de noche, tropieza, porque no hay luz en él.
11 This sayde he and after that he sayde vnto the: oure frende Lazarus slepeth but I goo to wake him out of slepe.
11 Dicho esto, díceles después: Lázaro nuestro amigo duerme; mas voy á despertarle del sueño.
12 Then sayde his disciples: Lorde yf he slepe he shall do well ynough.
12 Dijeron entonces sus discípulos: Señor, si duerme, salvo estará.
13 How be it Iesus spake of his deeth: but they thought that he had spoke of the naturall slepe.
13 Mas [esto] decía Jesús de la muerte de él: y ellos pensaron que hablaba del reposar del sueño.
14 Then sayde Iesus vnto the playnly Lazarus is deed
14 Entonces, pues, Jesús les dijo claramente: Lázaro es muerto;
15 and I am glad for youre sakes that I was not there because ye maye beleve. Neverthelesse let vs go vnto him.
15 Y huélgome por vosotros, que yo no haya estado allí, para que creáis: mas vamos á él.
16 Then sayde Thomas which is called Dydimus vnto the disciples: let vs also goo that we maye dye with him.
16 Dijo entonces Tomás, el que se dice el Dídimo, á sus condiscípulos: Vamos también nosotros, para que muramos con él.
17 Then went Iesus and founde that he had lyne in his grave foure dayes already.
17 Vino pues Jesús, y halló que había ya cuatro días que estaba en el sepulcro.
18 Bethanie was nye vnto Ierusalem aboute. xv. furlonges of
18 Y Bethania estaba cerca de Jerusalem, como quince estadios;
19 and many of the Iewes were come to Martha and Mary to comforte them over their brother.
19 Y muchos de los Judíos habían venido á Marta y á María, á consolarlas de su hermano.
20 Martha assone as she hearde that Iesus was comynge went and met him: but Mary sate still in the housse.
20 Entonces Marta, como oyó que Jesús venía, salió á encontrarle; mas María se estuvo en casa.
21 Then sayde Martha vnto Iesus: Lorde yf thou haddest bene here my brother had not bene deed:
21 Y Marta dijo á Jesús: Señor, si hubieses estado aquí, mi hermano no fuera muerto;
22 but neverthelesse I knowe that whatsoever thou axest of God God will geve it the.
22 Mas también sé ahora, que todo lo que pidieres de Dios, te dará Dios.
23 Iesus sayde vnto her: Thy brother shall ryse agayne.
23 Dícele Jesús: Resucitará tu hermano.
24 Martha sayde vnto him: I knowe that he shall ryse agayne in the resurreccion at the last daye.
24 Marta le dice: Yo sé que resucitará en la resurrección en el día postrero.
25 Iesus sayde vnto her: I am the resurreccion and the lyfe: He that beleveth on me ye though he were deed yet shall he lyve.
25 Dícele Jesús: Yo soy la resurrección y la vida: el que cree en mí, aunque esté muerto, vivirá.
26 And whosoever lyveth and belevest on me shall never dye. Beleveth thou this?
26 Y todo aquel que vive y cree en mí, no morirá eternamente. ¿Crees esto?
27 She sayde vnto him: ye Lorde I beleve that thou arte Christ the sonne of god which shuld come into the worlde.
27 Dícele: Sí, Señor; yo he creído que tú eres el Cristo, el Hijo de Dios, que has venido al mundo.
28 And assone as she had so sayde she went her waye and called Marie her sister secretly sayinge: The master is come and calleth for the
28 Y esto dicho, fuése, y llamó en secreto á María su hermana, diciendo: El Maestro está aquí y te llama.
29 And she assone as she hearde that arose quickly and came vnto him.
29 Ella, como lo oyó, levántase prestamente y viene á él.
30 Iesus was not yet come into the toune: but was in the place where Martha met him.
30 (Que aun no había llegado Jesús á la aldea, mas estaba en aquel lugar donde Marta le había encontrado.)
31 The Iewes then which were with her in the housse and comforted her when they sawe Mary that she rose vp hastely and went out folowed her saying: She goeth vnto the grave to wepe there.
31 Entonces los Judíos que estaban en casa con ella, y la consolaban, como vieron que María se había levantado prestamente, y había salido, siguiéronla, diciendo: Va al sepulcro á llorar allí.
32 Then when Mary was come where Iesus was and sawe him she fell doune at his fete sayinge vnto him: Lorde yf thou haddest bene here my brother had not bene deed.
32 Mas María, como vino donde estaba Jesús, viéndole, derribóse á sus pies, diciéndole: Señor, si hubieras estado aquí, no fuera muerto mi hermano.
33 When Iesus sawe her wepe and the Iewes also wepe which came with her he groned in the sprete and was troubled in him selfe and sayde:
33 Jesús entonces, como la vió llorando, y á los Judíos que habían venido juntamente con ella llorando, se conmovió en espíritu, y turbóse,
34 Where have ye layed him? They sayde vnto him: Lorde come and se.
34 Y dijo: ¿Dónde le pusisteis? Dícenle: Señor, ven, y ve.
35 And Iesus wept.
35 Y lloró Jesús.
36 Then sayde the Iewes: Beholde howe he loved him.
36 Dijeron entonces los Judíos: Mirad cómo le amaba.
37 And some of the sayde: coulde not he which openned the eyes of the blynde have made also that this man shuld not have dyed?
37 Y algunos de ellos dijeron: ¿No podía éste que abrió los ojos al ciego, hacer que éste no muriera?
38 Iesus agayne groned in him selfe and came to the grave. It was a caue and a stone layde on it.
38 Y Jesús, conmoviéndose otra vez en sí mismo, vino al sepulcro. Era una cueva, la cual tenía una piedra encima.
39 And Iesus sayd: take ye awaye the stone. Martha the sister of him that was deed sayd vnto him: Lorde by this tyme he stinketh. For he hath bene deed foure dayes:
39 Dice Jesús: Quitad la piedra. Marta, la hermana del que se había muerto, le dice: Señor, hiede ya, que es de cuatro días.
40 Iesus sayde vnto her: Sayde I not vnto the that if thou didest beleve thou shuldest se the glory of God.
40 Jesús le dice: ¿No te he dicho que, si creyeres, verás la gloria de Dios?
41 Then they toke awaye the stone from the place where the deed was layde. And Iesus lyfte vp his eyes and sayde: Father I thanke the because that thou hast hearde me.
41 Entonces quitaron la piedra de donde el muerto había sido puesto. Y Jesús, alzando los ojos arriba, dijo: Padre, gracias te doy que me has oído.
42 I wot that thou hearest me all wayes: but because of the people that stonde by I sayde it that they maye beleve that thou hast sent me.
42 Que yo sabía que siempre me oyes; mas por causa de la compañía que está alrededor, lo dije, para que crean que tú me has enviado.
43 And when he thus had spoken he cryed with a loud voyce. Lazarus come forthe.
43 Y habiendo dicho estas cosas, clamó á gran voz: Lázaro, ven fuera.
44 And he that was deed came forth bounde hand and fote with grave bondes and his face was bounde with a napkin. Iesus sayde vnto the: loowse him and let him goo.
44 Y el que había estado muerto, salió, atadas las manos y los pies con vendas; y su rostro estaba envuelto en un sudario. Díceles Jesús: Desatadle, y dejadle ir.
45 Then many of the Iewes which came to Mary and had sene the thinges which Iesus dyd beleved on him.
45 Entonces muchos de los Judíos que habían venido á María, y habían visto lo que había hecho Jesús, creyeron en él.
46 But some of them went their wayes to the Pharises and tolde them what Iesus had done.
46 Mas algunos de ellos fueron á los Fariseos, y dijéronles lo que Jesús había hecho.
47 Then gadered the hye prestes and the Pharises a counsell and sayde: what do we? This man doeth many miracles.
47 Entonces los pontífices y los Fariseos juntaron concilio, y decían: ¿Qué hacemos? porque este hombre hace muchas señales.
48 Yf we let him scape thus all men will beleve on him and the Romaynes shall come and take awaye oure countre and the people.
48 Si le dejamos así, todos creerán en él: y vendrán los Romanos, y quitarán nuestro lugar y la nación.
49 And one of them named Cayphas which was the hieprest that same yeare sayde vnto them: Ye perceave nothinge at all
49 Y Caifás, uno de ellos, sumo pontífice de aquel año, les dijo: Vosotros no sabéis nada;
50 nor yet consider that it is expedient for vs that one man dye for the people and not that all the people perisshe.
50 Ni pensáis que nos conviene que un hombre muera por el pueblo, y no que toda la nación se pierda.
51 This spake he not of him selfe but beinge hye preste that same yeare he prophesied that Iesus shulde dye for the people
51 Mas esto no lo dijo de sí mismo; sino que, como era el sumo pontífice de aquel año, profetizó que Jesús había de morir por la nación:
52 and not for the people only but that he shuld gader to geder in one the chyldren of God which were scattered abroode.
52 Y no solamente por aquella nación, mas también para que juntase en uno los hijos de Dios que estaban derramados.
53 From that daye forth they held a counsell to geder for to put him to deeth.
53 Así que, desde aquel día consultaban juntos de matarle.
54 Iesus therfore walked no more opely amonge the Iewes: but wet his waye thence vnto a countre nye to a wildernes into a cite called Ephraim and there hauted with his disciples.
54 Por tanto, Jesús ya no andaba manifiestamente entre los Judíos; mas fuése de allí á la tierra que está junto al desierto, á una ciudad que se llama Ephraim: y estábase allí con sus discípulos.
55 And the Iewes ester was nye at hand and many went out of the countre vp to Ierusalem before the ester to purify them selves.
55 Y la Pascua de los Judíos estaba cerca: y muchos subieron de aquella tierra á Jerusalem antes de la Pascua, para purificarse;
56 Then sought they for Iesus and spake bitwene the selves as they stode in the temple: What thinke ye seynge he cometh not to the feast.
56 Y buscaban á Jesús, y hablaban los unos con los otros estando en el templo: ¿Qué os parece, que no vendrá á la fiesta?
57 The hye prestes and Pharises had geven a commaundement that yf eny man knew where he were he shuld shewe it that they myght take him.
57 Y los pontífices y los Fariseos habían dado mandamiento, que si alguno supiese dónde estuviera, lo manifestase, para que le prendiesen.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Among all the miracles wrought by our Lord Jesus Christ, the resurrection of Lazarus holds a foremost place in preaching. But if we consider attentively who did it, our duty is to rejoice rather than to wonder.

Many men, when they see any of those who are pleasing to God suffering anything terrible, as, for instance, having fallen into sickness, or poverty, and any other the like, are offended, not knowing that to those especially dear to God it belongeth to endure these things; since Lazarus also was one of the friends of Christ, and was sick.

Then, when He had raised Lazarus from the dead, and plots were formed against Him by the Pharisees, He withdrew to a city called Ephraim; and from that place, as it is written "He came to Bethany six days before the passover," and going up from Bethany to Jerusalem, He there ate the passover, and suffered on the day following.
When, therefore, we read in the Gospel that the hard-heartedness of the Jews moved Him to sorrowful indignation, that He said, "I am glad for your sakes, to the intent ye may believe," that when about to raise Lazarus He even shed tears, that He earnestly desired to eat the passover with His disciples, that as His passion drew near …

… Lazarus, added also a prayer; and then, lest this should make Him appear less than Him that begat Him, He, to correct this suspicion, added, "I said these things, because of the people which standeth by, that they may believe that thou hast sent me." And neither doth He work all things as one who acted by His own power, …
