1. Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
2. (It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)
3. Therefore his sisters sent to him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.
4. When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified by it.
5. Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
6. When therefore he had heard that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.
7. Then after that he saith to his disciples, Let us ho into Judea again.
8. His disciples say to him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?
