* Now a certain man was sick , named Lazarus , of Bethany , the town of Mary and her sister Martha . * (It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment , and wiped his feet with her hair , whose brother Lazarus was sick .) * Therefore his sisters sent unto him , saying , Lord , behold , he whom thou lovest is sick . * When Jesus heard that , he said , This sickness is not unto death , but for the glory of God , that the Son of God might be glorified thereby . * Now Jesus loved Martha , and her sister , and Lazarus . * When he had heard therefore that he was sick , he abode two days still in the same place where he was . * Then after that saith he to his disciples , Let us go into Judaea again . * His disciples say unto him , Master , the Jews of late sought to stone thee ; and goest thou thither again ? * Jesus answered , Are there not twelve hours in the day ? If any man walk in the day , he stumbleth not , because he seeth the light of this world . * But if a man walk in the night , he stumbleth , because there is no light in him . * These things said he : and after that he saith unto them , Our friend Lazarus sleepeth ; but I go , that I may awake him out of sleep . * Then said his disciples , Lord , if he sleep , he shall do well . * Howbeit Jesus spake of his death : but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep . * Then said Jesus unto them plainly , Lazarus is dead . * And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there , to the intent ye may believe ; nevertheless let us go unto him . * Then said Thomas , which is called Didymus , unto his fellow disciples , Let us also go , that we may die with him .
