Bible verses about "martha" | Whiston

¹³ Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he has spoken of taking rest in sleep.

¹ Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. ² It was Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped [his] feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus also was sick. ³ Therefore his sisters sent unto Jesus, saying, Lord, behold, he who thou lovest, is sick. ⁴ When Jesus heard [that], he said, His sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby. ⁵ Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus. ⁶ When he had heard therefore that he was sick, Jesus abode two days still in the same place where he was. ⁷ Then after that he saith to his disciples, Let us go into Judea again. ⁸ His disciples say unto him, Rabbi, the Jews even now sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again? ⁹ Jesus answered, Hath not the day twelve hours? If any one walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. ¹⁰ But if any one walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is not light in him. ¹¹ These things said he: and after that, he saith unto them, Lazarus our friend sleepeth; but I go to awake him. ¹² The disciples therefore said to him, Lord, if he sleep, he will recover. ¹³ Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he has spoken of taking rest in sleep. ¹⁴ Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus our friend is dead. ¹⁵ And I am glad for your sakes, that I was not there that ye may believe: But let us go unto him. ¹⁶ Thomas, therefore, who is called Didymus, said unto his fellow disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him. ¹⁷ Jesus therefore came to Bethany, and found that he had been in the grave four days. ¹⁸ Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem; fifteen furlongs off. ¹⁹ But many of Jerusalem came to Martha and Mary, to comfort [them] concerning their brother. ²⁰ Martha, therefore when she heard that Jesus was coming, met him: but Mary sat in the house. ²¹ Martha therefore said unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. ²² But even now I know, that whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give [it] thee. ²³ Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again. ²⁴ Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection, at the last day. ²⁵ Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth on me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; ²⁶ And whosoever liveth, and believeth on me, shall never die. Believest thou this? ²⁷ She saith Yes, Lord: I have believed that thou art the Christ the Son of God who should come into the world. ²⁸ And when she had so said, she went away, and called Mary her sister silently, saying that The master is come, and calleth for thee. ²⁹ When she heard, she arose quickly, and comes unto him. ³⁰ But Jesus was not come into the village, but was in that place where Martha met him. ³¹ The Jews therefore which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary that she rose up hastily, and went out, followed her, supposing that she went to the grave, to weep there. ³² When therefore Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw [him], she fell down at his feet, saying, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. ³³ When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews who accompanied her weeping he was troubled in spirit, as one in a passion. ³⁴ And said, where have you laid him? They say unto him, Lord come and see. ³⁵ And Jesus wept. ³⁶ The Jews, therefore said, Behold how he loved him. ³⁷ But some of them said, Could not this man, who opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died? ³⁸ Jesus therefore again, as in a passion within himself cometh to the grave. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay upon it. ³⁹ Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: He hath been there four days. ⁴⁰ Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that if thou wouldst believe, thou shouldst see the glory of God? ⁴¹ They therefore took away the stone, and Jesus lift up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. ⁴² I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people who stand by, I said [it], that they may believe that thou hast sent me. ⁴³ And when he has spoken this, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. ⁴⁴ And he that was dead come forth presently, bound hand and foot with grave clothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go. ⁴⁵ Many therefore of the Jews who came to Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, believed on him. ⁴⁶ But some of them went to the Pharisees, and told them what Jesus had done. ⁴⁷ Then the chief priests therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council together, and said, What do we? This man doth such miracles. ⁴⁸ And if we let him this alone, all men will believe on him; and the Romans will come and take away our place and nation. ⁴⁹ But one of the, Caiphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all, ⁵⁰ Nor consider that it is expedient for you, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. ⁵¹ But this spake he not of himself: but being the high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was to die for that nation: ⁵² And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one, the children of God that were scattered abroad. ⁵³ From that day therefore they took counsel together that they might put him to death. ⁵⁴ Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went unto the country Samphurein, near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with the disciples. ⁵⁵ Now the Jews Passover was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country therefore up to Jerusalem, before the Passover, to purifie themselves. ⁵⁶ They sought therefore for Jesus also, and spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast? ⁵⁷ Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given commandment, that if any man knew where he were, he should declare [it], that they might seize him.

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

² And they made him a supper, and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.

⁴⁰ But Martha was cumbred about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone?speak to her therefore that she may help me.

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

³⁸ Now it came to pass, that he entred into a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha, received him into her house. ³⁹ And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lords feet, and heard the word. ⁴⁰ But Martha was cumbred about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone?speak to her therefore that she may help me. ⁴¹ And Jesus answered, and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art sollicitous: ⁴² But one thing is needful. Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
