John 11:1-9

1 Now a certain [man] was sick, [named] Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

2 (It was [that] Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

3 Therefore his sisters sent to him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

4 When Jesus heard [that], he said, This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified by it.

5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

6 When therefore he had heard that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.

7 Then after that he saith to [his] disciples, Let us ho into Judea again.

8 [His] disciples say to him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?

9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walketh in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
