43:010:038 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.

43:010:039 Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,

43:010:040 And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized; and there he abode.

43:010:041 And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spake of this man were true.

43:010:042 And many believed on him there.

43:011:001 Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

43:011:002 (It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

43:011:003 Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

43:011:004 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.

43:011:005 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

43:011:006 When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.

43:011:007 Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.

43:011:008 His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?

43:011:009 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.

43:011:010 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.

43:011:011 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.

43:011:012 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.

43:011:013 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.

43:011:014 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

43:011:015 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.

43:011:016 Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

43:011:017 Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.

43:011:018 Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:

43:011:019 And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

43:011:020 Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house.

43:011:021 Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

43:011:022 But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.

43:011:023 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.
