John Chapter 11 Verse 19And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

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.

Then said Jesus unto them plainly, ‹Lazarus is dead.›

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

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

Then when Jesus came, he found that he had [lain] in the grave four days already.

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

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

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

But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give [it] thee.

Jesus saith unto her, ‹Thy brother shall rise again.›

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

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

‹And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?›

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

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.

As soon as she heard [that], she arose quickly, and came unto him.
