John 11:10-22

¹⁰But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”

¹¹These things He said, and after this He said to them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awaken him.”

¹²Then His disciples said, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep he will get well.”

¹³However, Jesus spoke about his death, but they thought that He was speaking about resting in sleep.

¹⁴Then Jesus said to them plainly, “Lazarus is dead.

¹⁵And I rejoice for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless let us go to him.”

¹⁶Then Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, so that we may die with Him.”

¹⁷Therefore when He had come, Jesus found that he had already been in the tomb four days.

¹⁸Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles away.

¹⁹And many of the Jews had come to the women around Martha and Mary, so that they might console them concerning their brother.

²⁰Then Martha, when she heard that Jesus was coming, met Him, but Mary was sitting in the house.

²¹Then Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

²²But even now I know that whatever You may ask of God, God will give You.”
