John 11:11-13

Christian Standard Bible

¹¹ He said this, and then he told them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep,^(A) but I’m on my way to wake him up.”

¹² Then the disciples said to him, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will get well.”

¹³ Jesus, however, was speaking about his death, but they thought he was speaking about natural sleep.
