2 And it was Mary, which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hairs, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
3 Therefore his sisters sent to him, and said, Lord, lo! he whom thou lovest, is sick.
4 And Jesus heard, and said to them, This sickness is not to the death, but for the glory of God, (so) that man’s Son be glorified by him or (so) that God’s Son be glorified by it.
5 And Jesus loved Martha, and her sister Mary, and Lazarus.
6 Therefore when Jesus heard, that he was sick, then he dwelled in the same place (for) two days.
7 And after these things he said to his disciples, Go we again into Judea.
8 The disciples say to him, Master or Rabbi, now the Jews sought to stone thee, and again goest thou thither? (The disciples said to him, Teacher, not long ago the Jews sought to stone thee there, and now thou goest there again?)
9 Jesus answered, Whether there be not twelve hours of the day? (or Be there not twelve hours in the day?) If any man wander in the day or Whoever walketh in the day, he hurteth not (himself), for he seeth the light of this world.
10 But if he wander in the night (or But if he walk in the night), he stumbleth, for (the) light is not in (or with) him.
11 He said these things, and after these things he saith to them, Lazarus, our friend, sleepeth, but I go to raise him from sleep.
12 Therefore his disciples said, Lord, if he sleepeth, he shall be safe. (And so his disciples said, Lord, if he sleepeth, then he shall be secure or he shall be whole again.)
13 But Jesus had said of his death; but they guessed, that he said of the sleeping of sleep.
14 Then therefore Jesus said to them openly, Lazarus is dead;
15 and I have joy for you, that ye believe, for I was not there; but go we to him. (and I am happy for you, that your faith will increase, because I was not there; let us go to him.)
16 Therefore Thomas, that is said Didymus, said to (his) even-disciples, Go we also, that we die with him. (And Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, Let us also go, so that we can die with him.)
17 And so Jesus came, and found him having then four days in the grave.
18 And Bethany was beside Jerusalem, as it were fifteen furlongs.
