John 11:1-8 ▼

1 And there was a certain one ailing, Lazarus, from Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister—

2 and it was Mary who anointed the LORD with ointment, and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ailing—

3 therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, “Lord, behold, he whom You cherish is ailing”;

4 and Jesus having heard, said, “This ailment is not to death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”

5 And Jesus was loving Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus,

6 when, therefore, He heard that he is ailing, then indeed He remained in the place in which He was two days,

7 then after this, He says to the disciples, “We may go to Judea again”;

8 the disciples say to Him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just seeking to stone You, and again You go there?”
