John 11
1 Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of
Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
2 (It was 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,
behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.
4 When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is
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 he was.
7 Then after that 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 thee; and goest thou thither
again?
9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the
day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not,
because he seeth the light of this world.
10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth,
because there is no light in him.
11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto
them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I
may awake 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 your sakes that I was 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, Let us also go, that we may die
with him.
17 Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in
the grave four days already.
18 Now Bethany was 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 thou hadst
been here, my brother had not died.
22 But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt
ask of God, God will give it thee.
23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy 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 me, though he were
dead, yet shall he live:
26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall
never die. Believest thou this?
27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou
art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come
into the world.
28 And when she had so said, she went her way, and
called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master
is come, and calleth for thee.
29 As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and
came unto him.
30 Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was
in that place where Martha met him.
31 The Jews then which were with her in the house,
and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose
up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She
goeth unto the grave to weep there.
32 Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw
him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him,
Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not
died.
33 When Jesus therefore saw 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 see.
35 Jesus wept.
36 Then said the Jews, Behold 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 should not have died?
38 Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh
to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.
39 Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the
sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by
this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four
days.
40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that,
if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the
glory of God?
41 Then they took away the stone from the place where
the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and
said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but
because of the people which stand by I said it, that
they may believe that thou hast sent me.
43 And when he thus 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 Jesus 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 said, What do we? for this man doeth
many miracles.
48 If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on
him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our
place and nation.
49 And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high
priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know
nothing at all,
50 Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one
man should die for the people, and that the whole
nation perish not.
51 And this spake he not of himself: but being 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 forth they took counsel
together for to put 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
continued with his disciples.
55 And the Jews' passover was nigh at hand: and many
went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the
passover, to purify themselves.
56 Then sought they for Jesus, and spake among
themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think
ye, that he will not come to the feast?
57 Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had
given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he
were, he should shew it, that they might take him.
