1 And a certaine man was sicke, named Lazarus of Bethania, the towne of Marie, and her sister Martha. 2 (And it was that Mary which anointed the Lord with oyntment, and wiped his feete with her heare, whose brother Lazarus was sicke.) 3 Therefore his sisters sent vnto him, saying, Lord, beholde, he whome thou louest, is sicke. 4 When Iesus heard it, he saide, This sickenes is not vnto death, but for the glorie of God, that the Sonne of God might be glorified thereby. 5 Nowe Iesus loued Martha and her sister, and Lazarus. 6 And after he had heard that he was sicke, yet abode hee two dayes still in the same place where he was. 7 Then after that, said he to his disciples, Let vs goe into Iudea againe. 8 The disciples saide vnto him, Master, the Iewes lately sought to stone thee, and doest thou goe thither againe? 9 Iesus answered, Are there not twelue houres in the day? If a man walke in the day, hee stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. 10 But if a man walke in the night, hee stumbleth, because there is no light in him. 11 These things spake he, and after, he said vnto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth: but I goe to wake him vp. 12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleepe, he shalbe safe. 13 Howbeit, Iesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of the naturall sleepe. 14 Then saide Iesus vnto them plainely, Lazarus is dead. 15 And I am glad for your sakes, that I was not there, that ye may beleeue: but let vs go vnto him. 16 Then saide Thomas (which is called Didymus) vnto his felow disciples, Let vs also goe, that we may die with him. 17 Then came Iesus, and found that he had lien in the graue foure dayes alreadie. 18 (Nowe Bethania was neere vnto Hierusalem, about fifteene furlongs off.) 19 And many of ye Iewes were come to Martha and Marie to comfort them for their brother. 20 Then Martha, when shee heard that Iesus was comming, went to meete him: but Mary sate still in the house. 21 Then said Martha vnto Iesus, Lord, if thou hadst bene here, my brother had not bene dead. 22 But now I know also, that whatsoeuer thou askest of God, God will giue it thee. 23 Iesus said vnto her, Thy brother shall rise againe. 24 Martha said vnto him, I know that he shall rise againe in the resurrection at the last day. 25 Iesus saide vnto her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that beleeueth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he liue. 26 And whosoeuer liueth, and beleeueth in me, shall neuer die: Beleeuest thou this? 27 She said vnto him, Yea, Lord, I beleeue that thou art that Christ that Sonne of God, which should come into the world. 28 And when she had so saide, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee. 29 And when she heard it, shee arose quickly, and came vnto him. 30 For Iesus was not yet come into the towne, but was in the place where Martha met him. 31 The Iewes then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they sawe Marie, that she rose vp hastily, and went out, folowed her, saying, She goeth vnto the graue, to weepe there. 32 Then when Mary was come where Iesus was, and sawe him, she fell downe at his feete, saying vnto him, Lord, if thou haddest bene here, my brother had not bene dead. 33 When Iesus therefore saw her weepe, and the Iewes also weepe which came with her, hee groned in the spirit, and was troubled in himselfe, 34 And saide, Where haue ye layde him? They said vnto him, Lord, come and see. 35 And Iesus wept. 36 Then saide the Iewes, Beholde, how he loued him. 37 And some of them saide, Coulde not he, which opened the eyes of the blinde, haue made also, that this man should not haue died? 38 Iesus therefore againe groned in himselfe, and came to the graue. And it was a caue, and a stone was layde vpon it. 39 Iesus saide, Take ye away the stone. Martha the sister of him that was dead, said vnto him, Lord, he stinketh alreadie: for he hath bene dead foure dayes. 40 Iesus saide vnto her, Saide I not vnto thee, that if thou diddest beleeue, thou shouldest see the glorie of God? 41 Then they tooke away the stone from the place where the dead was layde. And Iesus lift vp his eyes, and saide, Father, I thanke thee, because thou hast heard me. 42 I knowe that thou hearest me alwayes, but because of the people that stand by, I said it, that they may beleeue, that thou hast sent me. 43 As hee had spoken these things, hee cried with a loude voyce, Lazarus, come foorth. 44 Then he that was dead, came forth, bound hande and foote with bandes, and his face was bound with a napkin. Iesus said vnto them, Loose him, and let him goe.
