[1] Now a certain sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. [2] that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.) [3] Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, he whom thou lovest is sick. [4] When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby. [5] Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. [6] When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where [7] Then after saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again. [8] His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone and goest thou thither again? [9] Jesus answered, not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light world. [10] But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because no light in him. [11] said he: and after he saith unto them, friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that him out of sleep. [12] Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well. [13] Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep. [14] Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead. [15] And I am glad for that not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him. [16] Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, also go, that may die with him. [17] Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already. [18] Now Bethany nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off: [19] And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother. [20] Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house. [21] Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if here, brother not [22] But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, will give [23] Jesus saith unto her, brother shall rise again. [24] Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day. [25] Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in though he were dead, yet shall he live: [26] And whosoever liveth and believeth in die. Believest thou [27] She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world. [28] And said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for [29] As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and came unto him. [30] Now Jesus not yet come into the town, but in that place where Martha met him. [31] The Jews then which with her in the house, and comforted her, Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, She goeth unto the grave to weep there. [32] Then when Mary was come where Jesus him, she fell down his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if here, brother had not died. [33] When Jesus therefore her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled, [34] And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and [35] Jesus wept. [36] Then the Jews, how he loved him! [37] And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man not have died? [38] Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. a cave, and a stone lay upon it. [39] Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for dead four days. [40] Jesus saith unto her, Said I not that, if thou wouldest believe, the glory of God? [41] Then they took away the stone And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank that thou hast heard [42] And I knew that thou hearest always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent [43] And had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. [44] And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go. [45] Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which did, believed on him. [46] But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done. [47] Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and What do we? for this man doeth many miracles. [48] If him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both place and nation. [49] And one of them, named Caiaphas, the high priest that same year, said unto them, know nothing at all, [50] Nor that it is expedient that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. [51] And spake he not of himself: but high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation; [52] And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad. [53] Then from that day for to him to death. [54] Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there with disciples.
