The Scriptures 1998

John 11:10-22 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

10. “But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”

11. He said this, and after that He said to them, “Our friend El‛azar has fallen asleep, but I am going there, to wake him up.”

12. Therefore the taught ones said to Him, “Master, if he has fallen asleep he shall recover.”

13. But יהושע had spoken about his death, whereas they thought that He spoke of taking rest in sleep.

14. So then יהושע said to them plainly, “El‛azar has died.

15. “And for your sake I am glad I was not there, in order for you to believe. But let us go to him.”

16. T’oma, who is called the Twin, then said to his fellow taught ones, “Let us also go, so that we die with Him.”

17. Therefore, when יהושע arrived, He found that he had already been four days in the tomb.

18. Now Bĕyth Anyah was near Yerushalayim, about three kilometres away.

19. And many of the Yehuḏim had come to Martha and Miryam, to comfort them concerning their brother.

20. Martha, then, when she heard that יהושע was coming, met Him, but Miryam was sitting in the house.

21. Martha, then, said to יהושע, “Master, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

22. “But even now I know that whatever You might ask of Elohim, Elohim shall give You.”
