John 11:1-4 ▼

1 Now a certain man named Lazarus was sick. He was from Bethany, the village where Mary and her sister Martha lived.

2 It was the Mary who anointed the Lord with perfume and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

3 So the sisters sent word to Him, saying, “Lord, he [our brother and Your friend] whom You love is sick.”

4 When Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness will not end in death; but [on the contrary it is] for the glory and honor of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified by it.”
