MLV(i)
2 Now it was this Mary who anointed the Lord with perfume and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
3 Therefore the sisters sent to him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom you love is sick.
4 But when Jesus heard it, he said, This sickness is not to death, but on behalf of the glory of God, in order that the Son of God may be glorified through it. 5 Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. 6 Therefore, as he heard that he was sick, then indeed, he remained in the place in which he was for two days. 7 Thereafter, after this time, he says to the disciples, We should go into Judea again.
8 The disciples say to him, Rabbi, the Jews just now were seeking to stone you, and you are going back there again?
9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he is not stumbling, because he sees the light of this world. 10 But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him. 11 He spoke these things and he says to them after this, Our friend Lazarus has fallen-asleep, but I am traveling in order that I may wake him.
12 Therefore the disciples said to him, Lord, if he has fallen-asleep, he will be cured.
13 (Now Jesus had spoken concerning his death, but those men thought that he is speaking concerning the restfulness of sleep.) 14 Therefore, then Jesus spoke to them frankly, Lazarus is dead. 15 And I rejoice because of you that I myself was not there, in order that you may believe; but we should go to him.
16 Therefore Thomas, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, We should also go, in order that we may die with him.
