John 11:4-6

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁴ But when Jesus heard it, he said, “This illness does not lead to death; rather, it is for God’s glory, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”^{(A) 5} Accordingly, though Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus, ⁶ after having heard that Lazarus^[a] was ill, he stayed two days longer in the place where he was.
