Riveduta 1927 (Italian) RIV
New International Version NIV
9 Gesù rispose: Non vi son dodici ore nel giorno? Se uno cammina di giorno, non inciampa, perché vede la luce di questo mondo;
9
Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? Anyone who walks in the daytime will not stumble, for they see by this world’s light.
10 ma se uno cammina di notte, inciampa, perché la luce non è in lui.
10
It is when a person walks at night that they stumble, for they have no light.”
11 Così parlò; e poi disse loro: Il nostro amico Lazzaro s’è addormentato; ma io vado a svegliarlo.
11
After he had said this, he went on to tell them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I am going there to wake him up.”
12 Perciò i discepoli gli dissero: Signore, s’egli dorme, sarà salvo.
12
His disciples replied, “Lord, if he sleeps, he will get better.”
13 Or Gesù avea parlato della morte di lui; ma essi pensarono che avesse parlato del dormir del sonno.
13
Jesus had been speaking of his death, but his disciples thought he meant natural sleep.
14 Allora Gesù disse loro apertamente: Lazzaro è morto;
14
So then he told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead,
15 e per voi mi rallegro di non essere stato là, affinché crediate; ma ora, andiamo a lui!
15
and for your sake I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.”
16 Allora Toma, detto Didimo, disse ai suoi condiscepoli: Andiamo anche noi, per morire con lui!
16
Then Thomas (also known as Didymus ) said to the rest of the disciples, “Let us also go, that we may die with him.”
17 Gesù dunque, arrivato, trovò che Lazzaro era già da quattro giorni nel sepolcro.
17
On his arrival, Jesus found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days.
18 Or Betania non distava da Gerusalemme che circa quindici stadi;
18
Now Bethany was less than two miles from Jerusalem,
19 e molti Giudei eran venuti da Marta e Maria per consolarle del loro fratello.
19
and many Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them in the loss of their brother.
