John 11:4-40

4But when JesusG2424 heardG191 this, He saidG3004, “ThisG3778 sicknessG769 is not 1meantG4314 forG4314 deathG2288, but is for 2the gloryG1391 of GodG2316, soG2443 thatG2443 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 may beG1392 glorifiedG1392 by it.” 5(NowG1161 JesusG2424 lovedG25 3MarthaG3136 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, “4Let’s goG71 to JudeaG2449 againG3825.” 8The disciplesG3101 saidG3004 to Him, “5RabbiG4461, the JewsG2453 were justG3568 nowG3568 seekingG2212 6to stoneG3034 You, and yet You are goingG5217 thereG1563 againG3825?” 9JesusG2424 repliedG611, “7Are thereG1563 not twelveG1427 hoursG5610 in the dayG2250? IfG1437 anyoneG5100 walksG4043 duringG1722 the dayG2250, he does not stumbleG4350, becauseG3754 he seesG991 the lightG5457 of thisG3778 worldG2889. 10But ifG1437 anyoneG5100 walksG4043 duringG1722 the nightG3571, he stumblesG4350, becauseG3754 the lightG5457 is not in 8him.” 11ThisG3778 He saidG3004, and afterG3326 thisG3778 He saidG3004 to them, “Our 9friendG5384 LazarusG2976 10has fallenG2837 asleepG2837; but I am goingG4198 soG2443 thatG2443 I may awakenG1852 him fromG1852 sleepG1852.” 12The disciplesG3101 thenG3767 saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, ifG1487 he has fallenG2837 asleepG2837, he will 11comeG4982 outG4982 ofG4982 itG4982.” 13NowG1161 12JesusG2424 had spokenG3004 of his deathG2288, but they thoughtG1380 that He was speakingG3004 aboutG4012 13actualG2838 sleepG5258. 14SoG3767 JesusG2424 thenG3767 saidG3004 to them plainlyG3954, “LazarusG2976 diedG599, 15and I amG5463 gladG5463 for your sakesG1223 that I was not thereG1563, soG2443 thatG2443 you may believeG4100; but let’s goG71 to him.” 1614ThereforeG3767 ThomasG2381, who was calledG3004 1516DidymusG1324, saidG3004 to his fellowG4827 disciplesG4827, “Let’s alsoG2532 goG71, soG2443 thatG2443 we may dieG599 with Him!”

17SoG3767 when JesusG2424 cameG2064, He foundG2147 that he had alreadyG2235 beenG2192 in the tombG3419 17fourG5064 daysG2250. 18NowG1161 18BethanyG963 was nearG1451 JerusalemG2414, aboutG5613 19fifteenG1178 stadiaG4712 awayG575; 19and manyG4183 of 20the JewsG2453 had comeG2064 to 21MarthaG3136 and MaryG3137, 22to consoleG3888 them aboutG4012 their brotherG80. 20SoG3767 thenG3767 23MarthaG3136, whenG5613 she heardG191 that JesusG2424 was comingG2064, wentG5221 toG5221 meetG5221 Him, but 24MaryG3137 25stayedG2516 in the houseG3624. 21MarthaG3136 thenG3767 saidG3004 to JesusG2424, “26LordG2962, 27ifG1487 You had beenG1510 hereG5602, my brotherG80 would not have diedG599. 22EvenG2532 nowG3568 I knowG3609 that 28whateverG3745G302 You askG154 of GodG2316, GodG2316 will giveG1325 You.” 23JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “Your brotherG80 will riseG450 from the dead.” 24MarthaG3136 saidG3004 to Him, “29I knowG3609 that he will riseG450 in the resurrectionG386 on the lastG2078 dayG2250.” 25JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “30I amG1510 the resurrectionG386 and the lifeG2222; the one who believesG4100 in Me will liveG2198, evenG2579 ifG2579 he diesG599, 26and everyoneG3956 who livesG2198 and believesG4100 in Me 31will neverG3756G3361G1519G165 dieG599. Do you believeG4100 thisG3778?” 27She saidG3004 to Him, “YesG3483, LordG2962; I have come to believeG4100 that You are 32the 33ChristG5547, the SonG5207 of GodG2316, and 3435He who comesG2064 into the worldG2889.”

28When she had saidG3004 thisG3778, she 36leftG565 and calledG5455 MaryG3137 her sisterG79, sayingG3004 secretlyG2977, “37The TeacherG1320 is hereG3918 and is callingG5455 for you.” 29And whenG5613 she heardG191 this, she gotG1453 upG1453 quicklyG5035 and cameG2064 to Him.

30NowG1161 JesusG2424 had not yetG3768 comeG2064 into the villageG2968, but 38was stillG2089 at the placeG5117 whereG3699 MarthaG3136 metG5221 Him. 3139ThenG3767 the JewsG2453 who were with her in the houseG3614 and were 40consolingG3888 her, when they sawG3708 that MaryG3137 had gottenG450 upG450 quicklyG5030 and leftG1831, they followedG190 her, thinkingG1380 that she was goingG5217 to the tombG3419 to weepG2799 thereG1563. 32SoG3767 whenG5613 MaryG3137 cameG2064 to the place whereG3699 JesusG2424 was, she sawG3708 Him and fellG4098 at His feetG4228, sayingG3004 to Him, “41LordG2962, 42ifG1487 You had beenG1510 hereG5602, my brotherG80 would not have diedG599.” 33ThereforeG3767 whenG5613 JesusG2424 sawG3708 her weepingG2799, and 43the JewsG2453 who cameG4905 with her also weepingG2799, He 44was deeplyG1690 movedG1690 in spiritG4151 and 4546was troubledG5015, 34and He saidG3004, “WhereG4226 have you laidG5087 him?” They saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, comeG2064 and seeG3708.” 35JesusG2424 47weptG1145. 36SoG3767 48the JewsG2453 were sayingG3004, “SeeG2396 howG4459 He 49lovedG5368 him!” 37But someG5100 of them saidG3004, “CouldG1410 thisG3778 ManG3778, who 50openedG455 the eyesG3788 of the manG5185 whoG5185 wasG5185 blindG5185, not haveG4160 alsoG2532 51keptG4160 thisG3778 manG3778 from dyingG599?”

38SoG3767 JesusG2424, againG3825 being deeplyG1690 movedG1690 withinG1722G1438, cameG2064 to the tombG3419. NowG1161 it was a 52caveG4693, and a stoneG3037 was lyingG1945 againstG1909 it. 39JesusG2424 saidG3004, “RemoveG142 the stoneG3037.” MarthaG3136, the sisterG79 of the deceasedG5053, saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, byG2235 thisG2235 timeG2235 53there will be a stenchG3605, for he has beenG1510 dead 54fourG5066 daysG5066.” 40JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “55Did I not sayG3004 to you that ifG1437 you believeG4100, you will seeG3708 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316?”
