1 Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.2 Here a dinner was given in Jesus' honor. Martha served, while Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with him.3 Then Mary took about a pint "of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus' feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.4 But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him, objected,5 "Why wasn't this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year's wages. ""6 He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it.7 "Leave her alone," Jesus replied. "It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial.8 You will always have the poor among you, "but you will not always have me."9 Meanwhile a large crowd of Jews found out that Jesus was there and came, not only because of him but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.10 So the chief priests made plans to kill Lazarus as well,11 for on account of him many of the Jews were going over to Jesus and believing in him.12 The next day the great crowd that had come for the festival heard that Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem.13 They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting, "Hosanna! "" "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!" ""Blessed is the king of Israel!"14 Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, as it is written:15 "Do not be afraid, Daughter Zion; see, your king is coming, seated on a donkey's colt." [^6]16 At first his disciples did not understand all this. Only after Jesus was glorified did they realize that these things had been written about him and that these things had been done to him.17 Now the crowd that was with him when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to spread the word.18 Many people, because they had heard that he had performed this sign, went out to meet him.19 So the Pharisees said to one another, "See, this is getting us nowhere. Look how the whole world has gone after him!"20 Now there were some Greeks among those who went up to worship at the festival.21 They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, with a request. "Sir," they said, "we would like to see Jesus."22 Philip went to tell Andrew; Andrew and Philip in turn told Jesus.23 Jesus replied, "The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.24 Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.25 Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life.26 Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.27 "Now my soul is troubled, and what shall I say? 'Father, save me from this hour'? No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour.28 Father, glorify your name!" Then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and will glorify it again."29 The crowd that was there and heard it said it had thundered; others said an angel had spoken to him.30 Jesus said, "This voice was for your benefit, not mine.31 Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out.32 And I, when I am lifted up "from the earth, will draw all people to myself."33 He said this to show the kind of death he was going to die.34 The crowd spoke up, "We have heard from the Law that the Messiah will remain forever, so how can you say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up' ? Who is this 'Son of Man'?"35 Then Jesus told them, "You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, before darkness overtakes you. Whoever walks in the dark does not know where they are going.36 Believe in the light while you have the light, so that you may become children of light." When he had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid himself from them.37 Even after Jesus had performed so many signs in their presence, they still would not believe in him.38 This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet: "Lord, who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?" [^8]39 For this reason they could not believe, because, as Isaiah says elsewhere:40 "He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, so they can neither see with their eyes, nor understand with their hearts, nor turn —and I would heal them." [^9]41 Isaiah said this because he saw Jesus' glory and spoke about him.42 Yet at the same time many even among the leaders believed in him. But because of the Pharisees they would not openly acknowledge their faith for fear they would be put out of the synagogue;43 for they loved human praise more than praise from God.44 Then Jesus cried out, "Whoever believes in me does not believe in me only, but in the one who sent me.45 The one who looks at me is seeing the one who sent me.46 I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.47 "If anyone hears my words but does not keep them, I do not judge that person. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.48 There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; the very words I have spoken will condemn them at the last day.49 For I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me to say all that I have spoken.50 I know that his command leads to eternal life. So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to say."

1 ثم قبل الفصح بستة ايام أتى يسوع الى بيت عنيا حيث كان لعازر الميت الذي اقامه من الاموات.2 فصنعوا له هناك عشاء. وكانت مرثا تخدم واما لعازر فكان احد المتكئين معه.3 فاخذت مريم منا من طيب ناردين خالص كثير الثمن ودهنت قدمي يسوع ومسحت قدميه بشعرها. فامتلأ البيت من رائحة الطيب.4 فقال واحد من تلاميذه وهو يهوذا سمعان الاسخريوطي المزمع ان يسلمه5 لماذا لم يبع هذا الطيب بثلاث مئة دينار ويعط للفقراء.6 قال هذا ليس لانه كان يبالي بالفقراء بل لانه كان سارقا وكان الصندوق عنده وكان يحمل ما يلقى فيه.7 فقال يسوع اتركوها. انها ليوم تكفيني قد حفظته.8 لان الفقراء معكم في كل حين. واما انا فلست معكم في كل حين9 فعلم جمع كثير من اليهود انه هناك فجاءوا ليس لاجل يسوع فقط بل لينظروا ايضا لعازر الذي اقامه من الاموات.10 فتشاور رؤساء الكهنة ليقتلوا لعازر ايضا.11 لان كثيرين من اليهود كانوا بسببه يذهبون ويؤمنون بيسوع12 وفي الغد سمع الجمع الكثير الذي جاء الى العيد ان يسوع آت الى اورشليم.13 فأخذوا سعوف النخل وخرجوا للقائه وكانوا يصرخون أوصنّا مبارك الآتي باسم الرب ملك اسرائيل.14 ووجد يسوع جحشا فجلس عليه كما هو مكتوب15 لا تخافي يا ابنة صهيون. هوذا ملكك يأتي جالسا على جحش اتان.16 وهذه الامور لم يفهمها تلاميذه اولا. ولكن لما تمجد يسوع حينئذ تذكروا ان هذه كانت مكتوبة عنه وانهم صنعوا هذه له.17 وكان الجمع الذي معه يشهد انه دعا لعازر من القبر واقامه من الاموات.18 لهذا ايضا لاقاه الجمع لانهم سمعوا انه كان قد صنع هذه الآية.19 فقال الفريسيون بعضهم لبعض انظروا. انكم لا تنفعون شيئا. هوذا العالم قد ذهب وراءه20 وكان اناس يونانيون من الذين صعدوا ليسجدوا في العيد.21 فتقدم هؤلاء الى فيلبس الذي من بيت صيدا الجليل وسألوه قائلين يا سيد نريد ان نرى يسوع.22 فأتى فيلبس وقال لاندراوس ثم قال اندراوس وفيلبس ليسوع.23 واما يسوع فاجابهما قائلا قد أتت الساعة ليتمجد ابن الانسان.24 الحق الحق اقول لكم ان لم تقع حبة الحنطة في الارض وتمت فهي تبقى وحدها. ولكن ان ماتت تأتي بثمر كثير.25 من يحب نفسه يهلكها ومن يبغض نفسه في هذا العالم يحفظها الى حياة ابدية.26 ان كان احد يخدمني فليتبعني . ‎ وحيث اكون انا هناك ايضا يكون خادمي. وان كان احد يخدمني يكرمه الآب.27 الآن نفسي قد اضطربت. وماذا اقول. ايها الآب نجني من هذه الساعة. ولكن لاجل هذا أتيت الى هذه الساعة.28 ايها الآب مجد اسمك. فجاء صوت من السماء مجدت وامجد ايضا.29 فالجمع الذي كان واقفا وسمع قال قد حدث رعد. وآخرون قالوا قد كلمه ملاك.30 اجاب يسوع وقال ليس من اجلي صار هذا الصوت بل من اجلكم.31 الآن دينونة هذا العالم. الآن يطرح رئيس هذا العالم خارجا.32 وانا ان ارتفعت عن الارض اجذب اليّ الجميع.33 قال هذا مشيرا الى اية ميتة كان مزمعا ان يموت.34 فاجابه الجمع نحن سمعنا من الناموس ان المسيح يبقى الى الابد. فكيف تقول انت انه ينبغي ان يرتفع ابن الانسان. من هو هذا ابن الانسان.35 فقال لهم يسوع النور معكم زمانا قليلا بعد. فسيروا ما دام لكم النور لئلا يدرككم الظلام. والذي يسير في الظلام لا يعلم الى اين يذهب.36 ما دام لكم النور آمنوا بالنور لتصيروا ابناء النور. تكلم يسوع بهذا ثم مضى واختفى عنهم37 ومع انه كان قد صنع امامهم آيات هذا عددها لم يؤمنوا به.38 ليتم قول اشعياء النبي الذي قاله يا رب من صدق خبرنا ولمن استعلنت ذراع الرب.39 لهذا لم يقدروا ان يؤمنوا. لان اشعياء قال ايضا.40 قد أعمى عيونهم واغلظ قلوبهم لئلا يبصروا بعيونهم ويشعروا بقلوبهم ويرجعوا فاشفيهم.41 قال اشعياء هذا حين رأى مجده وتكلم عنه.42 ولكن مع ذلك آمن به كثيرون من الرؤساء ايضا غير انهم لسبب الفريسيين لم يعترفوا به لئلا يصيروا خارج المجمع.43 لانهم احبوا مجد الناس اكثر من مجد الله44 فنادى يسوع وقال. الذي يؤمن بي ليس يؤمن بي بل بالذي ارسلني.45 والذي يراني يرى الذي ارسلني.46 انا قد جئت نورا الى العالم حتى كل من يؤمن بي لا يمكث في الظلمة.47 وان سمع احد كلامي ولم يؤمن فانا لا ادينه. لاني لم آت لادين العالم بل لاخلّص العالم.48 من رذلني ولم يقبل كلامي فله من يدينه. الكلام الذي تكلمت به هو يدينه في اليوم الاخير.49 لاني لم اتكلم من نفسي لكن الآب الذي ارسلني هو اعطاني وصية ماذا اقول وبماذا اتكلم.50 وانا اعلم ان وصيته هي حياة ابدية. فما اتكلم انا به فكما قال لي الآب هكذا اتكلم
