erat autem quidam languens Lazarus a Bethania de castelloMariae et Marthae sororis eius

11:2
Maria autem erat quae unxit Dominum unguento et extersitpedes eius capillis suis cuius frater Lazarus infirmabatur

11:3
miserunt ergo sorores ad eum dicentes Domine ecce quem amasinfirmatur

11:4
audiens autem Iesus dixit eis infirmitas haec non est admortem sed pro gloria Dei ut glorificetur Filius Dei per eam

11:5
diligebat autem Iesus Martham et sororem eius Mariam etLazarum

11:6
ut ergo audivit quia infirmabatur tunc quidem mansit ineodem loco duobus diebus

11:7
deinde post haec dicit discipulis suis eamus in Iudaeamiterum

11:8
dicunt ei discipuli rabbi nunc quaerebant te Iudaeilapidare et iterum vadis illuc

11:9
respondit Iesus nonne duodecim horae sunt diei si quisambulaverit in die non offendit quia lucem huius mundi videt

11:10
si autem ambulaverit nocte offendit quia lux non est in eo

11:11
haec ait et post hoc dicit eis Lazarus amicus nosterdormit sed vado ut a somno exsuscitem eum

11:12
dixerunt ergo discipuli eius Domine si dormit salvus erit

11:13
dixerat autem Iesus de morte eius illi autem putaveruntquia de dormitione somni diceret

11:14
tunc ergo dixit eis Iesus manifeste Lazarus mortuus est

11:15
et gaudeo propter vos ut credatis quoniam non eram ibi sedeamus ad eum

11:16
dixit ergo Thomas qui dicitur Didymus ad condiscipuloseamus et nos ut moriamur cum eo

11:17
venit itaque Iesus et invenit eum quattuor dies iam inmonumento habentem

11:18
erat autem Bethania iuxta Hierosolyma quasi stadiisquindecim

11:19
multi autem ex Iudaeis venerant ad Martham et Mariam utconsolarentur eas de fratre suo

11:20
Martha ergo ut audivit quia Iesus venit occurrit illiMaria autem domi sedebat

11:21
dixit ergo Martha ad Iesum Domine si fuisses hic fratermeus non fuisset mortuus

11:22
sed et nunc scio quia quaecumque poposceris a Deo dabittibi Deus

11:23
dicit illi Iesus resurget frater tuus

11:24
dicit ei Martha scio quia resurget in resurrectione innovissima die

11:25
dixit ei Iesus ego sum resurrectio et vita qui credit inme et si mortuus fuerit vivet

11:26
et omnis qui vivit et credit in me non morietur inaeternum credis hoc

11:27
ait illi utique Domine ego credidi quia tu es ChristusFilius Dei qui in mundum venisti

11:28
et cum haec dixisset abiit et vocavit Mariam sororem suamsilentio dicens magister adest et vocat te

11:29
illa ut audivit surgit cito et venit ad eum

11:30
nondum enim venerat Iesus in castellum sed erat adhuc inillo loco ubi occurrerat ei Martha

11:31
Iudaei igitur qui erant cum ea in domo et consolabantuream cum vidissent Mariam quia cito surrexit et exiit secutisunt eam dicentes quia vadit ad monumentum ut ploret ibi

11:32
Maria ergo cum venisset ubi erat Iesus videns eum ceciditad pedes eius et dixit ei Domine si fuisses hic non essetmortuus frater meus

11:33
Iesus ergo ut vidit eam plorantem et Iudaeos qui venerantcum ea plorantes fremuit spiritu et turbavit se ipsum

11:34
et dixit ubi posuistis eum dicunt ei Domine veni et vide

11:35
et lacrimatus est Iesus

11:36
dixerunt ergo Iudaei ecce quomodo amabat eum

11:37
quidam autem dixerunt ex ipsis non poterat hic qui aperuitoculos caeci facere ut et hic non moreretur

11:38
Iesus ergo rursum fremens in semet ipso venit admonumentum erat autem spelunca et lapis superpositus erat ei

11:39
ait Iesus tollite lapidem dicit ei Martha soror eius quimortuus fuerat Domine iam fetet quadriduanus enim est

11:40
dicit ei Iesus nonne dixi tibi quoniam si crediderisvidebis gloriam Dei

11:41
tulerunt ergo lapidem Iesus autem elevatis sursum oculisdixit Pater gratias ago tibi quoniam audisti me

11:42
ego autem sciebam quia semper me audis sed propter populumqui circumstat dixi ut credant quia tu me misisti

11:43
haec cum dixisset voce magna clamavit Lazare veni foras

11:44
et statim prodiit qui fuerat mortuus ligatus pedes etmanus institis et facies illius sudario erat ligata dicit Iesuseis solvite eum et sinite abire

11:45
multi ergo ex Iudaeis qui venerant ad Mariam et viderantquae fecit crediderunt in eum

11:46
quidam autem ex ipsis abierunt ad Pharisaeos et dixerunteis quae fecit Iesus

11:47
collegerunt ergo pontifices et Pharisaei concilium etdicebant quid facimus quia hic homo multa signa facit

11:48
si dimittimus eum sic omnes credent in eum et venientRomani et tollent nostrum et locum et gentem

11:49
unus autem ex ipsis Caiaphas cum esset pontifex anniillius dixit eis vos nescitis quicquam

11:50
nec cogitatis quia expedit nobis ut unus moriatur homo propopulo et non tota gens pereat

11:51
hoc autem a semet ipso non dixit sed cum esset pontifexanni illius prophetavit quia Iesus moriturus erat pro gente

11:52
et non tantum pro gente sed et ut filios Dei qui erantdispersi congregaret in unum

11:53
ab illo ergo die cogitaverunt ut interficerent eum

11:54
Iesus ergo iam non in palam ambulabat apud Iudaeos sedabiit in regionem iuxta desertum in civitatem quae diciturEfrem et ibi morabatur cum discipulis

11:55
proximum autem erat pascha Iudaeorum et ascenderunt multiHierosolyma de regione ante pascha ut sanctificarent se ipsos

11:56
quaerebant ergo Iesum et conloquebantur ad invicem intemplo stantes quid putatis quia non veniat ad diem festum

11:57
dederant autem pontifices et Pharisaei mandatum ut si quiscognoverit ubi sit indicet ut adprehendant eum

011:001
Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

011:002
(It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

011:003
Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

011:004
When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.

011:005
Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

011:006
When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.

011:007
Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.

011:008
His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?

011:009
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.

011:010
But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.

011:011
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.

011:012
Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.

011:013
Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.

011:014
Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

011:015
And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.

011:016
Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

011:017
Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.

011:018
Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:

011:019
And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

011:020
Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house.

011:021
Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

011:022
But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.

011:023
Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.

011:024
Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.

011:025
Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

011:026
And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

011:027
She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.

011:028
And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.

011:029
As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and came unto him.

011:030
Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.

011:031
The Jews then which were with her in the house, and 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.

011:032
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.

011:033
When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled.

011:034
And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.

011:035
Jesus wept.

011:036
Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!

011:037
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?

011:038
Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

011:039
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.

011:040
Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

011:041
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.

011:042
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.

011:043
And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

011:044
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.

011:045
Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.

011:046
But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done.

011:047
Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.

011:048
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.

011:049
And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,

011:050
Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.

011:051
And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation;

011:052
And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.

011:053
Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death.

011:054
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.

011:055
And the Jews' passover was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.

011:056
Then sought they for Jesus, and spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?

011:057
Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he were, he should shew it, that they might take him.
