The Death and Resurrection of Lazarus

11 Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from ^(A)Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister ^(B)Martha. ² And it was the Mary who ^(C)anointed ^(D)the Lord with perfume, and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick. ³ So the sisters sent to Him, saying, “^(E)Lord, behold, ^(F)he whom You love is sick.” ⁴ But when Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness is not to end in death, but is for ^(G)the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified by it.” ⁵ Now Jesus loved ^(H)Martha and her sister and Lazarus. ⁶ So when He heard that he was sick, He then stayed two days in the place where He was. ⁷ Then after this He *said to the disciples, “^(I)Let us go to Judea again.” ⁸ The disciples *said to Him, “^(J)Rabbi, the Jews were just now seeking ^(K)to stone You, and are You going there again?” ⁹ Jesus answered, “^(L)Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. ¹⁰ But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.” ¹¹ He said these things, and after that He *said to them, “Our ^(M)friend Lazarus ^(N)has fallen asleep; but I go, so that I may awaken him.” ¹² The disciples then said to Him, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will ^[a]be saved from his sickness.” ¹³ Now ^(O)Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that He was speaking of ^[b]actual sleep. ¹⁴ So Jesus then said to them ^[c]plainly, “Lazarus is dead, ¹⁵ and I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe; but let us go to him.” ^16 (P)Therefore Thomas, who is called ^[d](Q)Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, so that we may die with Him.”
