Bible verses about "lazarus" | MNT

³⁸ Jesus therefore, again shuddering in himself with indignation, came to the tomb, which was a cave with a stone lying upon it. ³⁹ "Roll away the stone," said Jesus. "Master," said Martha, the sister of the dead man "he is offensive by this time, for he has been four days in the tomb." ⁴⁰ Jesus answered her, "Did I not tell you that if you would believe you should see the glory of God?" ⁴¹ Then they rolled the stone away; and Jesus lifted up his eyes and said: ⁴² "Father, I thank thee that thou hast listened to me. And I knew that thou art ever listening to me, but for the sake of the crowd who are standing about, I said it, in order that they may believe that thou hast sent me." ⁴³ When he had said this he cried with a great voice, "Lazarus, come forth!" ⁴⁴ Out came the dead man, wrapped hand and foot with grave-clothes, and his face bound up in a napkin. Jesus said to them, "Untie him, and let him go."

¹ So then Jesus came six days before the Passover, to Bethany, where Lazarus was whom Jesus had raised from the dead.

¹⁹ "Now there was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen, and made merry every day in splendor. ²⁰ "And a certain beggar named Lazarus was thrown at his door. ²¹ "He was full of sores, and longingly desired to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table. Yes! even the dogs came and licked his sores. ²² "But in the course of time the beggar died; and he was carried by angels into Abraham's bosom. ²³ "The rich man also died, and was buried. And as he was tormented in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off and Lazarus in his bosom. ²⁴ "And he cried out and said, 'Father Abraham have mercy on me; and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am in anguish in this flame.' ²⁵ "'Remember my son.' said Abraham, 'that you had in your lifetime all your good things, and in the same way Lazarus his evil things; but now here he is comforted, and you are in anguish. ²⁶ "But besides all this, between us and you there is a great chasm fixed, so that those who want to cross from here to you cannot, nor can those who would cross from you to us.' ²⁷ "'I beg you then, father,' he said, 'send him to my fathers house. For I have five brothers. ²⁸ "'Let him earnestly warn them, lest they too come to this place of torment.' ²⁹ "But Abraham said, 'They have Moses and the Prophets, let them listen to them.' ³⁰ "'Nay, Father Abraham,' he said 'but if some one went to them from the dead they would repent.' ³¹ "'If they will not listen to Moses and the prophets,' said Father Abraham, 'neither will they be persuaded if one should rise from the dead.'"

¹ Now a man named Lazarus was ill. He was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha— ² it was Mary who anointed the Lord with perfume and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill. ³ So the sisters sent to him, saying. "Master, see who you hold dear is ill." ⁴ When Jesus heard it he said, "This illness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that through it the Son of God may be glorified." ⁵ Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. ⁶ However, when he heard that he was ill, ⁷ he still remained where he was for two days; then after that he said to his disciples, "Let us go back again to Judea." ⁸ "Rabbi," answered his disciples, "it was but just now that the Jews were trying to stone you, and are you going there again?" ⁹ Jesus replied. "Are there not twelve hours in the daytime? If any one walks in the daytime he does not stumble, because he beholds the light of this world; ¹⁰ but if any one walks during the night he does stumble, because the light is not in him." ¹¹ This he said, then told them, "Lazarus, our friend, has fallen asleep, but I am going to wake him." ¹² "Master, if he has fallen asleep, he will get well," replied the disciples. ¹³ Now Jesus had been speaking concerning his death, but they thought that he was talking about natural sleep. ¹⁴ So then he told them plainly.
