John 11:1-7

1 There was a man who had fallen sick. His name was El`azar, and he came from Beit-Anyah, the village where Miryam and her sister Marta lived.
2 (This Miryam, whose brother El`azar had become sick, is the one who poured perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair.)
3 So the sisters sent a message to Yeshua, "Lord, the man you love is sick."
4 On hearing it, he said, "This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God's glory, so that the Son of God may receive glory through it."
5 Yeshua loved Marta and her sister and El`azar;
6 so when he heard he was sick, first he stayed where he was two more days;
7 then, after this, he said to the talmidim, "Let's go back to Y'hudah."
