John 11:6-40

⁶And after he had heard that he was sicke, yet abode hee two dayes still in the same place where he was.

⁷Then after that, said he to his disciples, Let vs goe into Iudea againe.

⁸The disciples saide vnto him, Master, the Iewes lately sought to stone thee, and doest thou goe thither againe?

⁹Iesus answered, Are there not twelue houres in the day? If a man walke in the day, hee stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.

¹⁰But if a man walke in the night, hee stumbleth, because there is no light in him.

¹¹These things spake he, and after, he said vnto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth: but I goe to wake him vp.

¹²Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleepe, he shalbe safe.

¹³Howbeit, Iesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of the naturall sleepe.

¹⁴Then saide Iesus vnto them plainely, Lazarus is dead.

¹⁵And I am glad for your sakes, that I was not there, that ye may beleeue: but let vs go vnto him.

¹⁶Then saide Thomas (which is called Didymus) vnto his felow disciples, Let vs also goe, that we may die with him.

¹⁷Then came Iesus, and found that he had lien in the graue foure dayes alreadie.

¹⁸(Nowe Bethania was neere vnto Hierusalem, about fifteene furlongs off.)

¹⁹And many of ye Iewes were come to Martha and Marie to comfort them for their brother.

²⁰Then Martha, when shee heard that Iesus was comming, went to meete him: but Mary sate still in the house.

²¹Then said Martha vnto Iesus, Lord, if thou hadst bene here, my brother had not bene dead.

²²But now I know also, that whatsoeuer thou askest of God, God will giue it thee.

²³Iesus said vnto her, Thy brother shall rise againe.

²⁴Martha said vnto him, I know that he shall rise againe in the resurrection at the last day.

²⁵Iesus saide vnto her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that beleeueth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he liue.

²⁶And whosoeuer liueth, and beleeueth in me, shall neuer die: Beleeuest thou this?

²⁷She said vnto him, Yea, Lord, I beleeue that thou art that Christ that Sonne of God, which should come into the world.

²⁸And when she had so saide, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.

²⁹And when she heard it, shee arose quickly, and came vnto him.

³⁰For Iesus was not yet come into the towne, but was in the place where Martha met him.

³¹The Iewes then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they sawe Marie, that she rose vp hastily, and went out, folowed her, saying, She goeth vnto the graue, to weepe there.

³²Then when Mary was come where Iesus was, and sawe him, she fell downe at his feete, saying vnto him, Lord, if thou haddest bene here, my brother had not bene dead.

³³When Iesus therefore saw her weepe, and the Iewes also weepe which came with her, hee groned in the spirit, and was troubled in himselfe,

³⁴And saide, Where haue ye layde him? They said vnto him, Lord, come and see.

³⁵And Iesus wept.

³⁶Then saide the Iewes, Beholde, how he loued him.

³⁷And some of them saide, Coulde not he, which opened the eyes of the blinde, haue made also, that this man should not haue died?

³⁸Iesus therefore againe groned in himselfe, and came to the graue. And it was a caue, and a stone was layde vpon it.

³⁹Iesus saide, Take ye away the stone. Martha the sister of him that was dead, said vnto him, Lord, he stinketh alreadie: for he hath bene dead foure dayes.

⁴⁰Iesus saide vnto her, Saide I not vnto thee, that if thou diddest beleeue, thou shouldest see the glorie of God?
