The Book of John, Chapter 11, Verse 14

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.›

Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

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.›

‹But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.›

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.›

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

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