John 11:7-16
King James Version
7 Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.
8 His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?
9 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.
10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
11 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.
12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.
13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.
16 Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

John 11:7-16
New American Standard Bible
7 Then after this He *said to the disciples, “(A)Let’s go to Judea again.” 8 The disciples *said to Him, “(B)Rabbi, the Jews were just now seeking (C)to stone You, and yet You are going there again?” 9 Jesus replied, “(D)Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks during the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world. 10 But if anyone walks during the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in [a]him.” 11 This He said, and after this He *said to them, “Our (E)friend Lazarus (F)has fallen asleep; but I am going so that I may awaken him from sleep.” 12 The disciples then said to Him, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will [b]come out of it.” 13 Now (G)Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that He was speaking about [c]actual sleep. 14 So Jesus then said to them plainly, “Lazarus died, 15 and I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe; but let’s go to him.” 16 (H)Therefore Thomas, who was called [d](I)Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, “Let’s also go, so that we may die with Him!”

John 11:7-16
New King James Version
7 Then after this He said to the disciples, “Let us go to Judea again.”
8 The disciples said to Him, “Rabbi, lately the Jews sought to (A)stone You, and are You going there again?”
9 Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours in the day? (B)If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the (C)light of this world. 10 But (D)if one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.” 11 These things He said, and after that He said to them, “Our friend Lazarus (E)sleeps, but I go that I may wake him up.”
12 Then His disciples said, “Lord, if he sleeps he will get well.” 13 However, Jesus spoke of his death, but they thought that He was speaking about taking rest in sleep.
14 Then Jesus said to them plainly, “Lazarus is dead. 15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, that you may believe. Nevertheless let us go to him.”
16 Then (F)Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, that we may die with Him.”
