2 [11:7]Then after that he said to the disciples, Let us go again into Judea. [11:8]The disciples said to him, Rabbi, the Jews lately sought to stone you, and do you go there again? [11:9]Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours of the day? and if one walks in the day he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world; [11:10]but if he walks in the night he stumbles, because the light is not in it. [11:11]He said these things, and after this he said to them, Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep; but I go that I may awake him. [11:12]Then they said to him, Lord, if he has fallen asleep he will recover. [11:13]But Jesus spoke of his death; but they thought that he spoke of the rest of sleep. [11:14]Then Jesus, therefore, said to them plainly, Lazarus has died; [11:15]and I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, that you may believe; but let us go to him. [11:16]Then Thomas, who is called The twin, said to the fellow disciples, Let us go also, that we may die with him. 3 [11:17]Then Jesus coming found that he had been four days in the tomb. [11:18]And Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen stadiums [1 3-4 miles] distant. [11:19]And many of the Jews came to those with Martha and Mary, to console them for their brother. [11:20]Then when Martha heard that Jesus had come, she went out to meet him; but Mary sat in the house. [11:21]Then Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died; [11:22]but now also I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you. [11:23]Jesus said to her, Your brother shall rise again. [11:24]Martha said to him, I know that he will rise at the resurrection at the last day. [11:25]Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life; he that believes in me, even if he has died, shall live, [11:26]and no one who lives and believes in me shall ever die; do you believe this? [11:27]She said to him, Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who comes into the world. 4 [11:28]And having said this she went away and called Mary her sister, privately, saying, The teacher has come and calls for you. [11:29]When she heard, she arose quickly and came to him; [11:30]but Jesus had not yet entered into the village, but was at the place where Martha met him. [11:31]Then the Jews who were with her in the house and consoling her, seeing Mary that she arose and went out quickly, followed her, saying, She goes to the tomb to weep there. [11:32]Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was, and saw him, fell down at his feet, saying to him, Lord, if you had been here my brother would not have died.
