John 11:7-16

7and thenG1899G3326G3778 He saidG3004 to theG3588 disciplesG3101, “Let us goG71 backG3825 toG1519 JudeaG2449.”

8“RabbiG4461,” they repliedG3004, “theG3588 JewsG2453 justG3568 triedG2212 to stoneG3034 YouG4771, andG2532 You are goingG5217 backG3825 thereG1563?”

9JesusG2424 answeredG611, “Are thereG1510 notG3780 twelveG1427 hoursG5610 ofG3588 daylightG2250? IfG1437 anyoneG5100 walksG4043 inG1722 theG3588 daytimeG2250, he will not stumbleG3756G4350, becauseG3754 he seesG991 by theG3588 lightG5457 of thisG3778 worldG2889. 10ButG1161 ifG1437 anyoneG5100 walksG4043 atG1722 nightG3571, he will stumbleG4350, becauseG3754 heG846 hasG1510 noG3756 lightG5457.”

AfterG3326 He had saidG2036 thisG3778, He toldG3004 themG846, “OurG1473 friendG5384 LazarusG2976 has fallen asleepG2837, butG235 I am goingG4198 there toG2443 wake him upG1852G846.”

HisG846 disciplesG3101 repliedG2036, “LordG2962, ifG1487 he is sleepingG2837, he will get betterG4982.” 13TheyG1565 thoughtG1380 thatG3754 Jesus was talkingG3004 aboutG4012 actual sleepG2838G3588G5258, butG1161 He was speakingG2046 aboutG4012 theG3588 deathG2288 ofG846 Lazarus.

14SoG3767 JesusG2424 toldG2036 themG846 plainlyG3954, “LazarusG2976 is deadG599, 15andG2532 for your sakeG1223G4771 I am gladG5463 I wasG1510 notG3756 thereG1563, so thatG2443 you may believeG4100. ButG235 let us goG71 toG4314 himG846.”

16ThenG3767 ThomasG2381 calledG3004 DidymusG13241 saidG2036 toG3588 his fellow disciplesG4827, “Let usG1473 alsoG2532 goG71, so thatG2443 we may dieG599 withG3326 HimG846.”
