John 11:4-40

4But when JesusG2424 heardG191 this, He saidG3004, “ThisG3778 sicknessG769 is not to endG4314 in deathG2288, but for 1the gloryG1391 of GodG2316, soG2443 that the SonG5207 of GodG2316 may be glorifiedG1392 by it.” 5NowG1161 JesusG2424 lovedG25 2MarthaG3136 and her sisterG79 and LazarusG2976. 6SoG3767 whenG5613 He heardG191 that he was sickG770, He thenG5119 stayedG3306 twoG1417 daysG2250 longer in the placeG5117 whereG3739 He was. 7ThenG1899 afterG3326 thisG3778 He saidG3004 to the disciplesG3101, “3Let us goG71 to JudeaG2453 againG3825.” 8The disciplesG3101 saidG3004 to Him, “4RabbiG4461, the JewsG2453 were justG3568 nowG3568 seekingG2212 5to stoneG3034 You, and are You goingG5217 thereG1563 againG3825?” 9JesusG2424 answeredG611, “6Are thereG1563 not twelveG1427 hoursG5610 in the dayG2250? IfG1437 anyoneG5100 walksG4043 in the dayG2250, he does not stumbleG4350, becauseG3754 he seesG991 the lightG5457 of thisG3778 worldG2889. 10But ifG1437 anyoneG5100 walksG4043 in the nightG3571, he stumblesG4350, becauseG3754 the lightG5457 is not in him.” 11ThisG3778 He saidG3004, and afterG3326 that He saidG3004 to them, “Our 7friendG5384 LazarusG2976 8has fallenG2837 asleepG2837; but I goG4198, soG2443 that I may awakenG1852 him out of sleepG1852.” 12The disciplesG3101 thenG3767 saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, ifG1487 he has fallenG2837 asleepG2837, he will 9recoverG4982.” 13NowG1161 10JesusG2424 had spokenG3004 of his deathG2288, but they thoughtG1380 that He was speakingG3004 of 11literalG2838 sleepG5258. 14SoG3767 JesusG2424 thenG3767 saidG3004 to them plainlyG3954, “LazarusG2976 is deadG599, 15and I amG5463 gladG5463 for your sakesG1223 that I was not thereG1563, soG2443 that you may believeG4100; but let us goG71 to him.” 1612ThereforeG3767 ThomasG2381, who is calledG3004 1314DidymusG1324, saidG3004 to his fellowG4827 disciplesG4827, “Let us alsoG2532 goG71, soG3767 that we may dieG599 with Him.”

17SoG3767 when JesusG2424 cameG2064, He foundG2147 that he had alreadyG2235 beenG2192 in the tombG3419 15fourG5064 daysG2250. 18NowG1161 16BethanyG963 was nearG1451 JerusalemG2414, aboutG5613 17twoG1178 milesG4712 offG575; 19and manyG4183 of 18the JewsG2453 had comeG2064 to 19MarthaG3136 and MaryG3137, 20to consoleG3888 them concerningG4012 their brotherG80. 2021MarthaG3136 thereforeG3767, whenG5613 she heardG191 that JesusG2424 was comingG2064, wentG5221 to meetG5221 Him, but 22MaryG3137 23stayedG2516 at the houseG3624. 21MarthaG3136 thenG3767 saidG3004 to JesusG2424, “24LordG2962, 25ifG1487 You had beenG1510 hereG5602, my brotherG80 would not have diedG599. 22EvenG2532 nowG3568 I knowG3609 that 26whateverG3745G302 You askG154 of GodG2316, GodG2316 will giveG1325 You.” 23JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “Your brotherG80 will riseG450 againG450.” 24MarthaG3136 saidG3004 to Him, “27I knowG3609 that he will riseG450 againG450 in the resurrectionG386 on the lastG2078 dayG2250.” 25JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “28I amG1510 the resurrectionG386 and the lifeG2222; he who believesG4100 in Me will liveG2198 evenG2579 ifG2579 he diesG599, 26and everyoneG3956 who livesG2198 and believesG4100 in Me 29will neverG3756G3361 dieG599. Do you believeG4100 thisG3778?” 27She saidG3004 to Him, “YesG3483, LordG2962; I have believedG4100 that You are 3031the ChristG5547, the SonG5207 of GodG2316, even 3233He who comesG2064 into the worldG2889.”

28When she had saidG3004 thisG3778, she 34wentG565 awayG565 and calledG5455 MaryG3137 her sisterG79, sayingG3004 secretlyG2977, “35The TeacherG1320 is hereG3918 and is callingG5455 for you.” 29And whenG5613 she heardG191 it, she gotG1453 up quicklyG5035 and was comingG2064 to Him.

30NowG1161 JesusG2424 had not yetG3768 comeG2064 into the villageG2968, but 36was stillG2089 in the placeG5117 whereG3699 MarthaG3136 metG5221 Him. 3137ThenG3767 the JewsG2453 who were with her in the houseG3614, and 38consolingG3888 her, when they sawG3708 that MaryG3137 gotG450 up quicklyG5030 and wentG1831 out, they followedG190 her, supposingG1380 that she was goingG5217 to the tombG3419 to weepG2799 thereG1563. 32ThereforeG3767, whenG5613 MaryG3137 cameG2064 whereG3699 JesusG2424 was, she sawG3708 Him, and fellG4098 at His feetG4228, sayingG3004 to Him, “39LordG2962, 40ifG1487 You had beenG1510 hereG5602, my brotherG80 would not have diedG599.” 33WhenG5613 JesusG2424 thereforeG3767 sawG3708 her weepingG2799, and 41the JewsG2453 who cameG4905 with her also weepingG2799, He 42was deeplyG1690 movedG1690 in spiritG4151 and 4344was troubledG5015, 34and saidG3004, “WhereG4226 have you laidG5087 him?” They saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, comeG2064 and seeG3708.” 35JesusG2424 45weptG1145. 36SoG3767 46the JewsG2453 were sayingG3004, “SeeG2396 howG4459 He 47lovedG5368 him!” 37But someG5100 of them saidG3004, “CouldG1410 not thisG3778 manG3778, who 48openedG455 the eyesG3788 of the blindG5185 manG3778, 49haveG4160 keptG4160 thisG3778 manG3778 alsoG2532 from dyingG599?”

38SoG3767 JesusG2424, againG3825 being deeplyG1690 movedG1690 withinG1722G1438, cameG2064 to the tombG3419. NowG1161 it was a 50caveG4693, and a stoneG3037 was lyingG1945 againstG1909 it. 39JesusG2424 saidG3004, “RemoveG142 the stoneG3037.” MarthaG3136, the sisterG79 of the deceasedG5053, saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, by thisG2235 timeG2235 51there will be a stenchG3605, for he has beenG1510 dead 52fourG5066 daysG5066.” 40JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “53Did I not sayG3004 to you that ifG1437 you believeG4100, you will seeG3708 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316?”
