John 11:11-21

11 He said these things [These things he saith], and after these things he saith to them, Lazarus, our friend, sleepeth, but I go to raise him from sleep.
12 Therefore his disciples said, Lord, if he sleepeth, he shall be safe. [Therefore his disciples said, Lord, if he sleep, he shall be safe.]
13 But Jesus had said of his death; but they guessed, that he said of [the] sleeping of sleep.
14 Then therefore Jesus said to them openly, Lazarus is dead;
15 and I have joy for you, that ye believe, for I was not there; but go we to him.
16 Therefore Thomas, that is said Didymus, said to even-disciples, Go we also, that we die with him.
17 And so Jesus came, and found him having then four days in the grave. [And so Jesus came, and found him having now four days in the grave.]
18 And Bethany was beside Jerusalem, as it were fifteen furlongs.
19 And many of the Jews came to Mary and Martha, to comfort them of their brother.
20 Therefore as Martha heard, that Jesus came, she ran to him; but Mary sat at home.
21 Therefore Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if thou haddest been here, my brother had not be dead.
