[an error occurred while processing this directive]English Standard Version
1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1Now a certain man was ill, Lazarus of Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2It was Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3So the sisters sent to him, saying, “Lord, he whom you love is ill.”
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4But when Jesus heard it he said, “This illness does not lead to death. It is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6So, when he heard that Lazarus was ill, he stayed two days longer in the place where he was.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7Then after this he said to the disciples, “Let us go to Judea again.”
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8The disciples said to him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just now seeking to stone you, and are you going there again?”
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11After saying these things, he said to them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I go to awaken him.”
12[an error occurred while processing this directive]12The disciples said to him, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.”
13[an error occurred while processing this directive]13Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he meant taking rest in sleep.
14[an error occurred while processing this directive]14Then Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus has died,
15[an error occurred while processing this directive]15and for your sake I am glad that I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him.”
16[an error occurred while processing this directive]16So Thomas, called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, “Let us also go, that we may die with him.”
17[an error occurred while processing this directive]17Now when Jesus came, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb four days.
18[an error occurred while processing this directive]18Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles off,
19[an error occurred while processing this directive]19and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother.
20[an error occurred while processing this directive]20So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary remained seated in the house.
21[an error occurred while processing this directive]21Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
22[an error occurred while processing this directive]22But even now I know that whatever you ask from God, God will give you.”
23[an error occurred while processing this directive]23Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”
24[an error occurred while processing this directive]24Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.”
25[an error occurred while processing this directive]25Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live,
26[an error occurred while processing this directive]26and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
27[an error occurred while processing this directive]27She said to him, “Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming into the world.”
28[an error occurred while processing this directive]28When she had said this, she went and called her sister Mary, saying in private, “The Teacher is here and is calling for you.”
29[an error occurred while processing this directive]29And when she heard it, she rose quickly and went to him.
30[an error occurred while processing this directive]30Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha had met him.
31[an error occurred while processing this directive]31When the Jews who were with her in the house, consoling her, saw Mary rise quickly and go out, they followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there.
32[an error occurred while processing this directive]32Now when Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”
33[an error occurred while processing this directive]33When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in his spirit and greatly troubled.
34[an error occurred while processing this directive]34And he said, “Where have you laid him?” They said to him, “Lord, come and see.”
35[an error occurred while processing this directive]35Jesus wept.
36[an error occurred while processing this directive]36So the Jews said, “See how he loved him!”
37[an error occurred while processing this directive]37But some of them said, “Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man also have kept this man from dying?”
38[an error occurred while processing this directive]38Then Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
39[an error occurred while processing this directive]39Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, “Lord, by this time there will be an odor, for he has been dead four days.”
40[an error occurred while processing this directive]40Jesus said to her, “Did I not tell you that if you believed you would see the glory of God?”
41[an error occurred while processing this directive]41So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me.
42[an error occurred while processing this directive]42I knew that you always hear me, but I said this on account of the people standing around, that they may believe that you sent me.”
43[an error occurred while processing this directive]43When he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out.”
44[an error occurred while processing this directive]44The man who had died came out, his hands and feet bound with linen strips, and his face wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Unbind him, and let him go.”
45[an error occurred while processing this directive]45Many of the Jews therefore, who had come with Mary and had seen what he did, believed in him,
46[an error occurred while processing this directive]46but some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.
47[an error occurred while processing this directive]47So the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered the council and said, “What are we to do? For this man performs many signs.
48[an error occurred while processing this directive]48If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”
49[an error occurred while processing this directive]49But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all.
50[an error occurred while processing this directive]50Nor do you understand that it is better for you that one man should die for the people, not that the whole nation should perish.”
51[an error occurred while processing this directive]51He did not say this of his own accord, but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,
52[an error occurred while processing this directive]52and not for the nation only, but also to gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.
53[an error occurred while processing this directive]53So from that day on they made plans to put him to death.
54[an error occurred while processing this directive]54Jesus therefore no longer walked openly among the Jews, but went from there to the region near the wilderness, to a town called Ephraim, and there he stayed with the disciples.
55[an error occurred while processing this directive]55Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover to purify themselves.
56[an error occurred while processing this directive]56They were looking for Jesus and saying to one another as they stood in the temple, “What do you think? That he will not come to the feast at all?”
57[an error occurred while processing this directive]57Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, he should let them know, so that they might arrest him.
