John:11-12
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Now a certain man was (
5713 )
sick (
5723 ),
named Lazarus ,
of Bethany ,
the town of Mary and her sister Martha .
* (
It was (
5713 )
that Mary which anointed (
5660 )
the Lord with ointment ,
and wiped (
5660 )
his feet with her hair ,
whose brother Lazarus was sick (
5707 ).)
*
Therefore his sisters sent (
5656 )
unto him ,
saying (
5723 ),
Lord ,
behold ,
he whom thou lovest (
5719 )
is sick (
5719 ).
*
When Jesus heard (
5660 )
that ,
he said (
5627 ),
This sickness is (
5748 )
not unto death ,
but for the glory of God ,
that the Son of God might be glorified (
5686 )
thereby .
*
Now Jesus loved (
5707 )
Martha ,
and her sister ,
and Lazarus .
*
When he had heard (
5656 )
therefore that he was sick (
5719 ),
he abode (
5656 )
two days still in the same place where he was (
5713 ).
*
Then after that saith he (
5719 )
to his disciples ,
Let us go (
5725 )
into Judaea again .
*
His disciples say (
5719 )
unto him ,
Master ,
the Jews of late sought (
5707 )
to stone (
5658 )
thee ;
and goest thou (
5719 )
thither again ?
*
Jesus answered (
5662 ),
Are there (
5748 )
not twelve hours in the day ?
If any man walk (
5725 )
in the day ,
he stumbleth (
5719 )
not ,
because he seeth (
5719 )
the light of this world .
*
But if a man walk (
5725 )
in the night ,
he stumbleth (
5719 ),
because there is (
5748 )
no light in him .
*
These things said (
5627 )
he :
and after that he saith (
5719 )
unto them ,
Our friend Lazarus sleepeth (
5769 );
but I go (
5736 ),
that I may awake him out of sleep (
5661 ).
*
Then said (
5627 )
his disciples ,
Lord ,
if he sleep (
5769 ),
he shall do well (
5701 ).
*
Howbeit Jesus spake (
5715 )
of his death :
but they thought (
5656 )
that he had spoken (
5719 )
of taking of rest in sleep .
*
Then said (
5627 )
Jesus unto them plainly ,
Lazarus is dead (
5627 ).
*
And I am glad (
5719 )
for your sakes that I was (
5713 ) (
5625 ) (
5713 )
not there ,
to the intent ye may believe (
5661 );
nevertheless let us go (
5725 )
unto him .
*
Then said (
5627 )
Thomas ,
which is called (
5746 )
Didymus ,
unto his fellowdisciples ,
Let us also go (
5725 ),
that we may die (
5632 )
with him .
*
Then when Jesus came (
5631 ),
he found (
5627 )
that he had (
5723 )
lain in the grave four days already .
*
Now Bethany was (
5713 )
nigh unto Jerusalem ,
about fifteen furlongs off :
*
And many of the Jews came (
5715 )
to Martha and Mary ,
to comfort (
5667 )
them concerning their brother .
*
Then Martha ,
as soon as she heard (
5656 )
that Jesus was coming (
5736 ),
went and met (
5656 )
him :
but Mary sat (
5711 )
still in the house .
*
Then said (
5627 )
Martha unto Jesus ,
Lord ,
if thou hadst been (
5713 )
here ,
my brother had not died (
5715 ).
*
But I know (
5758 ),
that even now ,
whatsoever thou wilt ask (
5672 )
of God ,
God will give (
5692 )
it thee .
*
Jesus saith (
5719 )
unto her ,
Thy brother shall rise again (
5698 ).
*
Martha saith (
5719 )
unto him ,
I know (
5758 )
that he shall rise again (
5698 )
in the resurrection at the last day .
*
Jesus said (
5627 )
unto her ,
I am (
5748 )
the resurrection ,
and the life :
he that believeth (
5723 )
in me ,
though he were dead (
5632 ),
yet shall he live (
5695 ):
*
And whosoever liveth (
5723 )
and believeth (
5723 )
in me shall never die (
5632 ).
Believest thou (
5719 )
this ?
*
She saith (
5719 )
unto him ,
Yea ,
Lord :
I believe (
5758 )
that thou art (
5748 )
the Christ ,
the Son of God ,
which should come (
5740 )
into the world .
*
And when she had so said (
5631 ),
she went her way (
5627 ),
and called (
5656 )
Mary her sister secretly ,
saying (
5631 ),
The Master is come (
5748 ),
and calleth for (
5719 )
thee .
*
As soon as she heard (
5656 )
that ,
she arose (
5743 )
quickly ,
and came (
5736 )
unto him .
*
Now Jesus was not yet come (
5715 )
into the town ,
but was (
5713 )
in that place where Martha met (
5656 )
him .
*
The Jews then which were (
5752 )
with her in the house ,
and comforted (
5740 )
her ,
when they saw (
5631 )
Mary ,
that she rose up (
5627 )
hastily and went out (
5627 ),
followed (
5656 )
her ,
saying (
5723 ),
She goeth (
5719 )
unto the grave to weep (
5661 )
there .
*
Then when Mary was come (
5627 )
where Jesus was (
5713 ),
and saw (
5631 )
him ,
she fell down (
5627 )
at his feet ,
saying (
5723 )
unto him ,
Lord ,
if thou hadst been (
5713 )
here ,
my brother had not died (
5627 ).
*
When Jesus therefore saw (
5627 )
her weeping (
5723 ),
and the Jews also weeping (
5723 )
which came (
5631 )
with her ,
he groaned (
5662 )
in the spirit ,
and was troubled (
5656 ),
*
And said (
5627 ),
Where have ye laid (
5758 )
him ?
They said (
5719 )
unto him ,
Lord ,
come (
5736 )
and see (
5657 ).
*
Jesus wept (
5656 ).
*
Then said (
5707 )
the Jews ,
Behold how he loved (
5707 )
him !
*
And some of them said (
5627 ),
Could (
5711 )
not this man ,
which opened (
5660 )
the eyes of the blind ,
have caused (
5658 )
that even this man should not have died (
5632 )?
*
Jesus therefore again groaning (
5740 )
in himself cometh (
5736 )
to the grave .
It was (
5713 )
a cave ,
and a stone lay (
5711 )
upon it .
*
Jesus said (
5719 ),
Take ye away (
5657 )
the stone .
Martha ,
the sister of him that was dead (
5761 ),
saith (
5719 )
unto him ,
Lord ,
by this time he stinketh (
5719 ):
for he hath been (
5748 )
dead four days .
*
Jesus saith (
5719 )
unto her ,
Said I (
5627 )
not unto thee ,
that ,
if thou wouldest believe (
5661 ),
thou shouldest see (
5695 )
the glory of God ?
*
Then they took away (
5656 )
the stone from the place where the dead (
5761 )
was (
5713 )
laid (
5740 ).
And Jesus lifted (
5656 )
up his eyes ,
and said (
5627 ),
Father ,
I thank (
5719 )
thee that thou hast heard (
5656 )
me .
*
And I knew (
5715 )
that thou hearest (
5719 )
me always :
but because of the people which stand by (
5761 )
I said (
5627 )
it ,
that they may believe (
5661 )
that thou hast sent (
5656 )
me .
*
And when he thus had spoken (
5631 ),
he cried (
5656 )
with a loud voice ,
Lazarus ,
come (
5773 )
forth .
*
And he that was dead (
5761 )
came forth (
5627 ),
bound (
5772 )
hand and foot with graveclothes :
and his face was bound about (
5718 )
with a napkin .
Jesus saith (
5719 )
unto them ,
Loose (
5657 )
him ,
and let him (
5628 )
go (
5721 ).
*
Then many of the Jews which came (
5631 )
to Mary ,
and had seen (
5666 )
the things which Jesus did (
5656 ),
believed (
5656 )
on him .
*
But some of them went their ways (
5627 )
to the Pharisees ,
and told (
5627 )
them what things Jesus had done (
5656 ).
*
Then gathered (
5627 )
the chief priests and the Pharisees a council ,
and said (
5707 ),
What do we (
5719 )?
for this man doeth (
5719 )
many miracles .
*
If we let him thus alone (
5632 ),
all men will believe (
5692 )
on him :
and the Romans shall come (
5695 )
and take away (
5692 )
both our place and nation .
*
And one of them ,
named Caiaphas ,
being (
5752 )
the high priest that same year ,
said (
5627 )
unto them ,
Ye know (
5758 )
nothing at all ,
*
Nor consider (
5736 )
that it is expedient (
5719 )
for us ,
that one man should die (
5632 )
for the people ,
and that the whole nation perish (
5643 )
not .
*
And this spake he (
5627 )
not of himself :
but being (
5752 )
high priest that year ,
he prophesied (
5656 )
that Jesus should (
5707 )
die (
5721 )
for that nation ;
*
And not for that nation only ,
but that also he should gather together (
5632 )
in one the children of God that were scattered abroad (
5772 ).
*
Then from that day forth they took counsel together (
5668 )
for to put him to death (
5725 ).
*
Jesus therefore walked (
5707 )
no more openly among the Jews ;
but went (
5627 )
thence unto a country near to the wilderness ,
into a city called (
5746 )
Ephraim ,
and there continued (
5707 )
with his disciples .
*
And the Jews passover was (
5713 )
nigh at hand :
and many went (
5627 )
out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover ,
to purify (
5661 )
themselves .
*
Then sought they for (
5707 )
Jesus ,
and spake (
5707 )
among themselves ,
as they stood (
5761 )
in the temple ,
What think (
5719 )
ye ,
that he will not come (
5632 )
to the feast ?
*
Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given (
5715 )
a commandment ,
that ,
if any man knew (
5632 )
where he were (
5748 ),
he should shew (
5661 )
it ,
that they might take (
5661 )
him .
*
Then Jesus six days before the passover came (
5627 )
to Bethany ,
where Lazarus was (
5713 )
which had been dead (
5761 ),
whom he raised (
5656 )
from the dead .
*
There they made (
5656 )
him a supper ;
and Martha served (
5707 ):
but Lazarus was (
5713 )
one of them that sat at the table (
5740 )
with him .
*
Then took (
5631 )
Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard ,
very costly ,
and anointed (
5656 )
the feet of Jesus ,
and wiped (
5656 )
his feet with her hair :
and the house was filled (
5681 )
with the odour of the ointment .
*
Then saith (
5719 )
one of his disciples ,
Judas Iscariot ,
Simons son ,
which should (
5723 )
betray (
5721 )
him ,
*
Why was not this ointment sold (
5681 )
for three hundred pence ,
and given (
5681 )
to the poor ?
*
This he said (
5627 ),
not that he cared (
5707 )
for the poor ;
but because he was (
5713 )
a thief ,
and had (
5707 )
the bag ,
and bare (
5707 )
what was put therein (
5746 ).
*
Then said (
5627 )
Jesus ,
Let her alone (
5628 ):
against the day of my burying hath she kept (
5758 )
this .
*
For the poor always ye have (
5719 )
with you ;
but me ye have (
5719 )
not always .
*
Much people of the Jews therefore knew (
5627 )
that he was (
5748 )
there :
and they came (
5627 )
not for Jesus sake only ,
but that they might see (
5632 )
Lazarus also ,
whom he had raised (
5656 )
from the dead .
*
But the chief priests consulted (
5662 )
that they might put Lazarus also to death (
5725 );
*
Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away (
5707 ),
and believed (
5707 )
on Jesus .
*
On the next day much people that were come (
5631 )
to the feast ,
when they heard (
5660 )
that Jesus was coming (
5736 )
to Jerusalem ,
*
Took (
5627 )
branches of palm trees ,
and went forth (
5627 )
to meet him ,
and cried (
5707 ),
Hosanna :
Blessed (
5772 )
is the King of Israel that cometh (
5740 )
in the name of the Lord .
*
And Jesus ,
when he had found (
5631 )
a young ass ,
sat (
5656 )
thereon ;
as it is (
5748 )
written (
5772 ),
*
Fear (
5732 ) (
5737 )
not ,
daughter of Sion :
behold (
5628 ),
thy King cometh (
5736 ),
sitting (
5740 )
on an asss colt .
*
These things understood (
5627 )
not his disciples at the first :
but when Jesus was glorified (
5681 ),
then remembered they (
5681 )
that these things were (
5713 )
written (
5772 )
of him ,
and that they had done (
5656 )
these things unto him .
*
The people therefore that was (
5752 )
with him when he called (
5656 )
Lazarus out of his grave ,
and raised (
5656 )
him from the dead ,
bare record (
5707 ).
*
For this cause the people also met (
5656 )
him ,
for that they heard (
5656 )
that he had done (
5760 )
this miracle .
*
The Pharisees therefore said (
5627 )
among themselves ,
Perceive ye (
5719 ) (
5720 )
how ye prevail (
5719 )
nothing ?
behold ,
the world is gone (
5627 )
after him .
*
And there were (
5713 )
certain Greeks among them that came up (
5723 )
to worship (
5661 )
at the feast :
*
The same came (
5656 )
therefore to Philip ,
which was of Bethsaida of Galilee ,
and desired (
5707 )
him ,
saying (
5723 ),
Sir ,
we would (
5719 )
see (
5629 )
Jesus .
*
Philip cometh (
5736 )
and telleth (
5719 )
Andrew :
and again Andrew and Philip tell (
5719 )
Jesus .
*
And Jesus answered (
5662 )
them ,
saying (
5723 ),
The hour is come (
5754 ),
that the Son of man should be glorified (
5686 ).
*
Verily ,
verily ,
I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
Except a corn of wheat fall (
5631 )
into the ground and die (
5632 ),
it abideth (
5719 )
alone :
but if it die (
5632 ),
it bringeth forth (
5719 )
much fruit .
*
He that loveth (
5723 )
his life shall lose (
5692 )
it ;
and he that hateth (
5723 )
his life in this world shall keep (
5692 )
it unto life eternal .
*
If any man serve (
5725 )
me ,
let him follow (
5720 )
me ;
and where I am (
5748 ),
there shall also my servant be (
5704 ):
if any man serve (
5725 )
me ,
him will my Father honour (
5692 ).
*
Now is my soul troubled (
5769 );
and what shall I say (
5632 )?
Father ,
save (
5657 )
me from this hour :
but for this cause came I (
5627 )
unto this hour .
*
Father ,
glorify (
5657 )
thy name .
Then came there (
5627 )
a voice from heaven ,
saying ,
I have both glorified (
5656 )
it ,
and will glorify (
5692 )
it again .
*
The people therefore ,
that stood by (
5761 ),
and heard (
5660 )
it ,
said (
5707 )
that it thundered (
5755 ):
others said (
5707 ),
An angel spake (
5758 )
to him .
*
Jesus answered (
5662 )
and said (
5627 ),
This voice came (
5754 )
not because of me ,
but for your sakes .
*
Now is (
5748 )
the judgment of this world :
now shall the prince of this world be cast (
5701 )
out .
*
And I ,
if I be lifted up (
5686 )
from the earth ,
will draw (
5692 )
all men unto me .
*
This he said (
5707 ),
signifying (
5723 )
what death he should (
5707 )
die (
5721 ).
*
The people answered (
5662 )
him ,
We have heard (
5656 )
out of the law that Christ abideth (
5719 )
for ever :
and how sayest (
5719 )
thou ,
The Son of man must (
5748 )
be lifted up (
5683 )?
who is (
5748 )
this Son of man ?
*
Then Jesus said (
5627 )
unto them ,
Yet a little while is (
5748 )
the light with you .
Walk (
5720 )
while ye have (
5719 )
the light ,
lest darkness come upon (
5632 )
you :
for he that walketh (
5723 )
in darkness knoweth (
5758 )
not whither he goeth (
5719 ).
*
While ye have (
5719 )
light ,
believe (
5720 )
in the light ,
that ye may be (
5638 )
the children of light .
These things spake (
5656 )
Jesus ,
and departed (
5631 ),
and did hide himself (
5648 )
from them .
*
But though he had done (
5761 )
so many miracles before them ,
yet they believed (
5707 )
not on him :
*
That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled (
5686 ),
which he spake (
5627 ),
Lord ,
who hath believed (
5656 )
our report ?
and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed (
5681 )?
*
Therefore they could (
5711 )
not believe (
5721 ),
because that Esaias said (
5627 )
again ,
*
He hath blinded (
5758 )
their eyes ,
and hardened (
5758 )
their heart ;
that they should not see (
5632 )
with their eyes ,
nor understand (
5661 )
with their heart ,
and be converted (
5652 ),
and I should heal (
5667 )
them .
*
These things said (
5627 )
Esaias ,
when he saw (
5627 )
his glory ,
and spake (
5656 )
of him .
*
Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed (
5656 )
on him ;
but because of the Pharisees they did not confess (
5707 )
him ,
lest they should be (
5638 )
put out of the synagogue :
*
For they loved (
5656 )
the praise of men more than the praise of God .
*
Jesus cried (
5656 )
and said (
5627 ),
He that believeth (
5723 )
on me ,
believeth (
5719 )
not on me ,
but on him that sent (
5660 )
me .
*
And he that seeth (
5723 )
me seeth (
5719 )
him that sent (
5660 )
me .
*
I am come (
5754 )
a light into the world ,
that whosoever believeth (
5723 )
on me should not abide (
5661 )
in darkness .
*
And if any man hear (
5661 )
my words ,
and believe (
5661 )
not ,
I judge (
5692 ) (
5719 )
him not :
for I came (
5627 )
not to judge (
5725 )
the world ,
but to save (
5661 )
the world .
*
He that rejecteth (
5723 )
me ,
and receiveth (
5723 )
not my words ,
hath (
5719 )
one that judgeth (
5723 )
him :
the word that I have spoken (
5656 ),
the same shall judge (
5692 )
him in the last day .
*
For I have not spoken (
5656 )
of myself ;
but the Father which sent (
5660 )
me ,
he gave (
5656 )
me a commandment ,
what I should say (
5632 ),
and what I should speak (
5661 ).
*
And I know (
5758 )
that his commandment is (
5748 )
life everlasting :
whatsoever I speak (

therefore ,
even as the Father said (
5758 )
unto me ,
so I speak (

when Jesus knew (

that his hour was come (

his own which were in the world ,
he loved (
5656 )
them unto the end .
