John 11 — WBMS
11Verse 1And there was a sick man, Lazarus of Bethany, of the castle of Mary and Martha, his sisters.Verse 2And it was Mary, which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hairs, whose brother Lazarus was sick.Verse 3Therefore his sisters sent to him, and said, Lord, lo! he whom thou lovest, is sick.Verse 4And Jesus heard, and said to them, This sickness is not to the death, but for the glory of God, that man’s Son be glorified by him [or that God’s Son be glorified by it].Verse 5And Jesus loved Martha, and her sister Mary, and Lazarus.Verse 6Therefore when Jesus heard, that he was sick, then he dwelled in the same place two days.Verse 7And after these things he said to his disciples, Go we again into Judea.Verse 8The disciples say to him, Master [or Rabbi], now the Jews sought to stone thee, and again goest thou thither?Verse 9Jesus answered, Whether there be not twelve hours of the day? If any man wander in the day [or Whoever walketh in the day], he hurteth not, for he seeth the light of this world.Verse 10But if he wander in the night, he stumbleth, for light is not in him.Verse 11He said these things, and after these things he saith to them, Lazarus, our friend, sleepeth, but I go to raise him from sleep.Verse 12Therefore his disciples said, Lord, if he sleepeth, he shall be safe.Verse 13But Jesus had said of his death; but they guessed, that he said of [the] sleeping of sleep.Verse 14Then therefore Jesus said to them openly, Lazarus is dead;Verse 15and I have joy for you, that ye believe, for I was not there; but go we to him.Verse 16Therefore Thomas, that is said Didymus, said to even-disciples, Go we also, that we die with him.Verse 17And so Jesus came, and found him having then four days in the grave.Verse 18And Bethany was beside Jerusalem, as it were fifteen furlongs.Verse 19And many of the Jews came to Mary and Martha, to comfort them of their brother.Verse 20Therefore as Martha heard, that Jesus came, she ran to him; but Mary sat at home.Verse 21Therefore Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if thou haddest been here, my brother had not be dead.Verse 22But now I know, that whatever things thou shalt ask of God, God shall give to thee.Verse 23Jesus saith to her, Thy brother shall rise again.Verse 24Martha saith to him, I know, that he shall rise again in the again-rising in the last day.Verse 25Jesus saith to her, I am again-rising and life; he that believeth in me, yea, though he be dead, he shall live;Verse 26and each that liveth [or all that liveth], and believeth in me, shall not die without end. Believest thou this thing?Verse 27She saith to him, Yea, Lord, I have believed, that thou art Christ, the Son of the living God, that hast come into this world.Verse 28And when she had said this thing, she went, and called Mary, her sister, in silence, and said, The Master is come, and calleth thee.Verse 29She, as she heard, arose anon, and came to him.Verse 30And Jesus came not yet into the castle, but he was yet in that place, where Martha had come to meet him.Verse 31Therefore the Jews that were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose swiftly, and went out, they pursued her, and said, For she goeth to the grave, to weep there.Verse 32But when Mary was come where Jesus was, she seeing him felled down to his feet, and said to him, Lord, if thou haddest been here, my brother had not be dead.Verse 33Therefore when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping that were with her, he made noise in spirit, and troubled himself,Verse 34and said, Where have ye laid him? They said to him, Lord, come, and see.Verse 35And Jesus wept.Verse 36Therefore the Jews said, Lo! how he loved him.Verse 37And some of them said, Whether this man that opened the eyes of the born-blind man, might not make that this should not die?Verse 38Therefore Jesus again making noise in himself, came to the grave. And there was a den, and a stone was laid thereon.Verse 39And Jesus saith, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him, Lord, he stinketh now, for he hath lain four days [or soothly he is of four days dead].Verse 40Jesus saith to her, Have I not said to thee, that if thou believest, thou shalt see the glory of God?Verse 41Therefore they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I do thankings to thee, for thou hast heard me;Verse 42and I wist, that thou evermore hearest me, but for the people that standeth about, I said, that they believe, that thou hast sent me.Verse 43When he had said these things, he cried with a great voice, Lazarus, come forth, [or Lazarus, come thou out].Verse 44And anon he that was dead, came out, bound the hands and feet with bonds, and his face bound with a sudarium, [or sweating cloth]. And Jesus saith to them, Unbind ye him, and suffer ye him to go forth.Verse 45Therefore many of the Jews that came to Mary and Martha, and saw what things Jesus did, believed in him.Verse 46But some of them went to the Pharisees, and said to them, what things Jesus had done.Verse 47Therefore the bishops, and the Pharisees gathered a council against Jesus, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles [or signs].Verse 48If we leave him thus, all men shall believe in him; and Romans shall come, and shall take our place, and our folk.Verse 49But one of them, Caiaphas by name, when he was bishop of that year, said to them, Ye know nothing,Verse 50nor think, that it speedeth to you, that one man die for the people, and that all the folk perish not.Verse 51But he said not this thing of himself, but when he was bishop of that year, he prophesied, that Jesus was to die for the folk,Verse 52and not only for the folk, but that he should gather into one the sons of God that were scattered.Verse 53Therefore from that day they thought for to slay him.Verse 54Therefore Jesus walked not then openly among the Jews; but he went into a country beside [the] desert, into a city, that is said Ephraim, and there he dwelled with his disciples.Verse 55And the pask of the Jews was nigh, and many of the country went up to Jerusalem before the pask, to hallow themselves.Verse 56Therefore they sought Jesus, and spake together, standing in the temple, What guess ye, for he cometh not to the feast day?Verse 57For the bishops, and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that if any man know where he is, that he show, that they take him.
