comforted her, when they saw
Mary that she rose up hastily,
and went out, followed her,
saying, She goeth unto the
grave to weep there.
32 Then when Mary was come
where Jesus was, and saw him,
she fell down at his feet,
saying unto him, Lord, if thou
hadst been here, my brother
had not died.
33 When Jesus therefore saw
her weeping, and the Jews also
weeping which came with her,
he groaned in the spirit, and
was troubled,
34 And said, Where have ye
laid him? They say unto him,
Lord, come and see.
36 Jesus wept.
36 Then said the Jews, Behold
how he loved him!
37 And some of them said,
Could not this man, which
opened the eyes of the blind,
have caused that even this man
should not have died?
38 Jesus therefore again
groaning in himself, cometh to
the grave. It was a cave, and
a stone lay upon it.
39 Jesus said, Take ye away
the stone. Martha, the sister
of him that was dead, saith
unto him, Lord, by this time
he stinketh: for he hath been
_dead_ four days.
40 Jesus saith unto her, Said
I not unto thee, that if thou
wouldest believe, thou
shouldest see the glory of
God?
41 Then they took away the
stone _from the place_ where
the dead was laid. And Jesus
lifted up _his_ eyes, and
said, Father, I thank thee
that thou hast heard me.
42 And I knew that thou
hearest me always: but because
of the people which stand by,
I said _it_, that they may
believe that thou hast sent
me.
43 And when he thus had
spoken, he cried with a loud
voice, Lazarus, come forth.
44 And he that was dead came
forth, bound hand and foot
with graveclothes: and his
face was bound about with a
napkin. Jesus saith unto them,
Loose him, and let him go.
45 Then many of the Jews which
came to Mary, and had seen the
things which Jesus did,
believed on him.
46 But some of them went their
ways to the Pharisees, and
told them what things Jesus
had done.
§ 93. The counsel of Caiaphas against Jesus. He retires from Jerusalem.
_Jerusalem. Ephraim_.
John.
CH. XI. 47-54.
47 Then gathered the chief
priests and the Pharisees a
council, and said, What do we?
for this man doeth many
miracles.
48 If we let him thus alone,
all _men_ will believe on him:
and the Romans shall come, and
take away both our place and
nation.
49 And one of them, _named_
Caiaphas, being the high
priest that same year, said
unto them, Ye know nothing at
all,
50 Nor consider that it is
expedient for us, that one man
should die for the people, and
that the whole nation perish
not.
51 And this spake he not of
himself: but being high priest
that year, he prophesied that
Jesus should die for that
nation;
52 And not for that nation
only, but that also he should
gather together in one the
children of God that were
scattered abroad.
53 Then from that day forth
they took counsel together for
to put him to death.
54 Jesus therefore walked no
more openly among the Jews;
but went thence unto a country
near to the wilderness, into a
city called Ephraim, and there
continued with his disciples.
