A Translation of the New Testament from the original Greek: Humbly Attempted with a View to Assist the Unlearned with Clearer and More Explicit Views of the Mind of the Spirit in the Scriptures of Truth
Haweis, Thomas
Bible. New Testament
(32)When therefore Mary was come where Jesus was, beholding him, she
fell at his feet, saying to him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my
brother would not have died! (33)When Jesus then saw her weeping, and
all the Jews who came with her lamenting, he groaned in spirit, and was
himself greatly agitated: (34)and he said, Where have ye laid him? They
say to him, Lord, come and see. (35)Jesus wept. (36)Then said the Jews,
Behold, how he loved him! (37)But some of them said, Could not this
man, who openeth the eyes of the blind, have caused that this person
should not have died? (38)Then Jesus again groaning in himself, cometh
to the sepulchre. It was an excavation, and a stone lay upon it.
(39)Jesus saith, Remove the stone. The sister of the deceased, Martha,
said to him, Lord, he is by this time putrid: for he hath been dead
four days. (40)Jesus saith unto her, Did I not tell thee, that, if thou
wouldest believe, thou shalt see the glory of God? (41)Then they
removed the stone where the deceased was lying. And Jesus lifted his
eyes upwards, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me!
(42)And I knew that thou always dost hear me: but for the sake of the
multitude standing by I spake, that they may believe that thou hast
sent me. (43)And when he had thus spoken, with a loud voice he cried,
Lazarus, come forth! (44)And the deceased came forth, his feet and his
hands wrapped with the linen swathes; and his face bound round with a
napkin. Jesus saith to them, Loose him, and let him go!
(45)Then many of the Jews who came to Mary, and saw what Jesus had
done, believed on him. (46)But some of them went to the Pharisees, and
told them what things Jesus had done. (47)The chief priests and
Pharisees therefore called the sanhedrim together, and said, What are
we about? for this man is doing many miracles. (48)If we suffer him to
go on thus, all men will believe on him: and the Romans will come, and
take away both our place and nation. (49)Then one particular person of
them, Caiaphas, being the high-priest of that year, said unto them, Ye
know nothing, (50)nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one
man should die for the people, and that the whole nation be not
destroyed. (51)And this he spake not from himself: but being the
high-priest of that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the
nation; (52)and not for that nation only, but that he should collect
into one body the children of God wherever dispersed. (53)Then from
that day they consulted together how they might kill him.
