1 Now|strong="G1161" a|strong="G2532" man|strong="G5100" named Lazarus|strong="G2976", of|strong="G1537" Bethany, was|strong="G1510" lying ill; he|strong="G2532" belonged|strong="G1510" to|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" same|strong="G2532" village|strong="G2968" as|strong="G1161" Mary|strong="G3137" and|strong="G2532" her|strong="G3137" sister Martha|strong="G3136".
2 This|strong="G3588" Mary|strong="G3137", whose|strong="G3739" brother Lazarus|strong="G2976" was|strong="G1510" ill, was|strong="G1510" the|strong="G2532" Mary|strong="G3137" who|strong="G3739" anointed the|strong="G2532" Master|strong="G2962" with|strong="G2532" perfume|strong="G3464", and|strong="G2532" wiped|strong="G1591" his|strong="G2532" feet|strong="G4228" with|strong="G2532" her|strong="G3137" hair|strong="G2359".
3 The|strong="G4314" sisters, therefore|strong="G3767", sent this|strong="G3588" message to|strong="G4314" Jesus|strong="G3004" – “Master|strong="G2962", your|strong="G2962" friend is|strong="G3588" ill”;
4 and|strong="G1161", when|strong="G1161" Jesus|strong="G2424" heard it|strong="G1161", he|strong="G1161" said|strong="G3004", ‘\+w This|strong="G3778"\+w* illness \+w is|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w not|strong="G3756"\+w* \+w to|strong="G4314"\+w* \+w end|strong="G3778"\+w* \+w in|strong="G2316"\+w* \+w death|strong="G2288"\+w*, \+w but|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w is|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w to|strong="G4314"\+w* redound \+w to|strong="G4314"\+w* \+w the|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w honour|strong="G1391"\+w* \+w of|strong="G5207"\+w* \+w God|strong="G2316"\+w*, \+w in|strong="G2316"\+w* \+w order|strong="G2443"\+w* \+w that|strong="G2443"\+w* \+w the|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w Son|strong="G5207"\+w* \+w of|strong="G5207"\+w* \+w God|strong="G2316"\+w* \+w may|strong="G2443"\+w* \+w be|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w honoured|strong="G1392"\+w* \+w through|strong="G1223"\+w* \+w it|strong="G1161"\+w*.’
5 Jesus|strong="G2424" loved Martha|strong="G3136" and|strong="G2532" her|strong="G3588" sister, and|strong="G2532" Lazarus|strong="G2976".
6 Yet|strong="G3303", when|strong="G5613" he|strong="G3739" heard of|strong="G2250" the|strong="G1722" illness of|strong="G2250" Lazarus, he|strong="G3739" still|strong="G3306" stayed|strong="G3306" two|strong="G1417" days|strong="G2250" in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" place|strong="G5117" where|strong="G3739" he|strong="G3739" was|strong="G1510".
7 Then|strong="G1899", after|strong="G3326" that|strong="G3588", he|strong="G3778" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G1519" his|strong="G1519" disciples|strong="G3101", ‘\+w Let|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w us|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w go|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w to|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w Judea|strong="G2449"\+w* \+w again|strong="G3825"\+w*.’
8 ‘Rabbi|strong="G4461",’ they|strong="G2532" replied|strong="G3004", ‘the|strong="G2532" authorities there|strong="G1563" were|strong="G3588" but|strong="G2532" just|strong="G2532" now|strong="G3568" seeking|strong="G2212" to|strong="G2532" stone|strong="G3034" you|strong="G4771"; and|strong="G2532" are|strong="G3588" you|strong="G4771" going|strong="G5217" there|strong="G1563" again|strong="G3825"?’

11 And|strong="G2532", when|strong="G2532" he|strong="G2532" had|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" this|strong="G3778", he|strong="G2532" added, ‘\+w Our|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w friend|strong="G5384"\+w* \+w Lazarus|strong="G2976"\+w* \+w has|strong="G3778"\+w* \+w fallen|strong="G2837"\+w* \+w asleep|strong="G2837"\+w*; \+w but|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w I|strong="G1473"\+w* \+w am|strong="G1473"\+w* \+w going|strong="G4198"\+w* \+w so|strong="G2443"\+w* \+w that|strong="G2443"\+w* \+w I|strong="G1473"\+w* \+w may|strong="G2532"\+w* wake \+w him|strong="G3588"\+w*.’

13 But|strong="G1161" Jesus|strong="G2424" meant|strong="G3004" that|strong="G3754" he|strong="G1161" was|strong="G3588" dead; they|strong="G1161", however|strong="G1161", supposed|strong="G1380" that|strong="G3754" he|strong="G1161" was|strong="G3588" speaking|strong="G3004" of|strong="G4012" natural sleep|strong="G5258".
14 Then|strong="G3767" he|strong="G3588" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G3004" them|strong="G3588" plainly|strong="G3954", ‘\+w Lazarus|strong="G2976"\+w* \+w is|strong="G3588"\+w* dead;

16 At|strong="G3588" this|strong="G3588", Thomas|strong="G2381", who|strong="G3588" was|strong="G3588" called|strong="G3004" “The|strong="G2532" Twin,” said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G2443" his|strong="G2532" fellow|strong="G4827" disciples|strong="G4827", ‘Let|strong="G2443" us|strong="G3004" go|strong="G2532" too|strong="G2532", so|strong="G2443" that|strong="G2443" we|strong="G2249" may|strong="G2532" die with|strong="G3326" him|strong="G3588".’
17 When|strong="G1722" Jesus|strong="G2424" reached|strong="G2064" the|strong="G1722" place|strong="G1722", he|strong="G3588" found|strong="G2147" that|strong="G3588" Lazarus had|strong="G2192" been|strong="G2192" four|strong="G5064" days|strong="G2250" in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" tomb|strong="G3419" already|strong="G2235".
18 Bethany being|strong="G1510" only about|strong="G5613" two|strong="G5613" miles|strong="G4712" from|strong="G3588" Jerusalem|strong="G2414",
19 a|strong="G2532" number of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" people|strong="G4183" had|strong="G2532" come|strong="G2064" there|strong="G2532" to|strong="G4314" comfort|strong="G3888" Martha|strong="G3136" and|strong="G2532" Mary|strong="G3137" because|strong="G1537" of|strong="G1537" their|strong="G1438" brother’s death.
20 When|strong="G1161" Martha|strong="G3136" heard that|strong="G3754" Jesus|strong="G2424" was|strong="G3588" coming|strong="G2064", she|strong="G1161" went|strong="G2064" to|strong="G2064" meet|strong="G3588" him|strong="G3588"; but|strong="G1161" Mary|strong="G3137" sat|strong="G2516" quietly at|strong="G1722" home|strong="G3624".
21 ‘Master|strong="G2962",’ Martha|strong="G3136" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G4314" Jesus|strong="G2424", ‘if|strong="G1487" you|strong="G1487" had|strong="G2424" been|strong="G1510" here|strong="G5602", my|strong="G1473" brother would|strong="G1510" not|strong="G3756" have|strong="G1473" died|strong="G3588".
22 Even|strong="G2532" now|strong="G3568", I|strong="G2532" know|strong="G1492" that|strong="G3754" God|strong="G2316" will|strong="G2316" grant|strong="G1325" you|strong="G4771" whatever|strong="G3745" you|strong="G4771" ask him|strong="G3588".’
23 ‘\+w Your|strong="G3588"\+w* brother \+w will|strong="G3004"\+w* rise \+w to|strong="G3004"\+w* life,’ said|strong="G3004" Jesus|strong="G2424".
24 ‘I|strong="G3754" know|strong="G1492" that|strong="G3754" he|strong="G3754" will|strong="G2250",’ replied|strong="G3004" Martha|strong="G3136", ‘in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" resurrection at|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" Last|strong="G2078" day|strong="G2250".’
25 ‘\+w I|strong="G1473"\+w* \+w am|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w the|strong="G2532"\+w* resurrection \+w and|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w the|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w life|strong="G2222"\+w*,’ said|strong="G3004" Jesus|strong="G2424". ‘\+w He|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w who|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w believes|strong="G4100"\+w* \+w in|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w me|strong="G1473"\+w* \+w will|strong="G1510"\+w* \+w live|strong="G2198"\+w*, \+w though|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w he|strong="G2532"\+w* die;

27 ‘Yes|strong="G3483" Master|strong="G2962",’ she|strong="G3754" answered|strong="G3004". ‘I|strong="G1473" have|strong="G1473" learned to|strong="G1519" believe|strong="G4100" that|strong="G3754" you|strong="G4771" are|strong="G1510" the|strong="G1519" Christ|strong="G5547", the|strong="G1519" Son|strong="G5207" of|strong="G5207" God|strong="G2316", who|strong="G3588" was|strong="G1510" to|strong="G1519" come|strong="G2064" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1519" world|strong="G2889".’
28 After|strong="G2532" saying|strong="G3004" this|strong="G3778", Martha went|strong="G2532" and|strong="G2532" called|strong="G3004" her|strong="G3137" sister Mary|strong="G3137", and|strong="G2532" whispered, ‘The|strong="G2532" teacher|strong="G1320" is|strong="G3588" here|strong="G3918", and|strong="G2532" is|strong="G3588" asking|strong="G3004" for|strong="G2532" you|strong="G4771".’
29 As|strong="G5613" soon|strong="G5035" as|strong="G5613" Mary heard that|strong="G1565", she|strong="G2532" got|strong="G1453" up|strong="G1453" quickly|strong="G5035", and|strong="G2532" went|strong="G2064" to|strong="G4314" meet|strong="G2532" him|strong="G1565".
30 Jesus|strong="G2424" had|strong="G2424" not|strong="G1510" then|strong="G1161" come|strong="G2064" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1722" village|strong="G2968", but|strong="G1161" was|strong="G1510" still|strong="G2089" at|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" place|strong="G5117" where|strong="G3699" Martha|strong="G3136" had|strong="G2424" met|strong="G5221" him|strong="G3588".
31 So|strong="G2443" the|strong="G1722" people|strong="G1510", who|strong="G3588" were|strong="G1510" in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" house|strong="G3614" with|strong="G3326" Mary|strong="G3137", comforting her|strong="G1438", when|strong="G2532" they|strong="G2532" saw|strong="G3708" her|strong="G1438" get|strong="G1831" up|strong="G1519" quickly|strong="G5030" and|strong="G2532" go|strong="G5217" out|strong="G1831", followed her|strong="G1438", thinking|strong="G1380" that|strong="G3754" she|strong="G2532" was|strong="G1510" going|strong="G5217" to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1722" tomb|strong="G3419" to|strong="G1519" weep|strong="G2799" there|strong="G1563".
32 When|strong="G5613" Mary|strong="G3137" came|strong="G2064" where|strong="G3699" Jesus|strong="G2424" was|strong="G1510" and|strong="G2064" saw|strong="G3708" him|strong="G3588", she|strong="G5613" threw|strong="G4098" herself at|strong="G4314" his|strong="G3708" feet|strong="G4228". ‘Master|strong="G2962",’ she|strong="G5613" exclaimed|strong="G3004", ‘if|strong="G1487" you|strong="G1487" had|strong="G2424" been|strong="G1510" here|strong="G5602", my|strong="G3708" brother would|strong="G2064" not|strong="G3756" have|strong="G1473" died|strong="G4098"!’
33 When|strong="G5613" Jesus|strong="G2424" saw|strong="G3708" her|strong="G1438" weeping|strong="G2799", and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" people|strong="G3767" who|strong="G3588" had|strong="G2424" come|strong="G4905" with|strong="G2532" her|strong="G1438" weeping|strong="G2799" also|strong="G2532", he|strong="G2532" groaned|strong="G1690" deeply|strong="G1690", and|strong="G2532" was|strong="G3588" greatly|strong="G5613" distressed.
34 ‘\+w Where|strong="G4226"\+w* \+w have|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w you|strong="G3004"\+w* buried \+w him|strong="G3708"\+w*?’ he|strong="G2532" asked|strong="G3004". ‘Come|strong="G2064" and|strong="G2532" see|strong="G3708", Master|strong="G2962",’ they|strong="G2532" answered|strong="G3004".
35 Jesus|strong="G2424" burst into|strong="G2424" tears.
36 ‘How|strong="G4459" he|strong="G3588" must|strong="G2453" have|strong="G3588" loved|strong="G5368" him|strong="G3588"!’ the|strong="G3588" people|strong="G3767" exclaimed|strong="G3004";
37 but|strong="G1161" some|strong="G5100" of|strong="G1537" them|strong="G3588" said|strong="G3004", ‘Could|strong="G1410" not|strong="G3756" this|strong="G3778" man|strong="G5100", who|strong="G3588" gave|strong="G4160" sight|strong="G3788" to|strong="G2443" the|strong="G2532" blind|strong="G5185" man|strong="G5100", have|strong="G2532" also|strong="G2532" prevented|strong="G3361" Lazarus|strong="G3778" from|strong="G1537" dying?’
38 Again|strong="G3825" groaning|strong="G1690" inwardly|strong="G1722", Jesus|strong="G2424" came|strong="G2064" to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1722" tomb|strong="G3419".

39 ‘Move \+w the|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w stone|strong="G3037"\+w* away,’ said|strong="G3004" Jesus|strong="G2424". ‘Master|strong="G2962",’ said|strong="G3004" Martha|strong="G3136", the|strong="G3588" sister of|strong="G2962" the|strong="G3588" dead|strong="G5053" man, ‘by|strong="G3004" this|strong="G3588" time|strong="G2235" the|strong="G3588" smell must|strong="G1510" be|strong="G1510" offensive, for|strong="G1063" this|strong="G3588" is|strong="G1510" the|strong="G3588" fourth day|strong="G3588" since|strong="G1063" his|strong="G3588" death.’

41 So|strong="G3767" they|strong="G2532" moved the|strong="G2532" stone|strong="G3037" away; and|strong="G2532" Jesus|strong="G2424", with|strong="G2532" uplifted eyes|strong="G3788", said|strong="G3004", ‘\+w Father|strong="G3962"\+w*, \+w I|strong="G1473"\+w* \+w thank|strong="G2168"\+w* \+w you|strong="G4771"\+w* \+w that|strong="G3754"\+w* \+w you|strong="G4771"\+w* \+w have|strong="G2532"\+w* heard \+w my|strong="G1473"\+w* prayer.
42 \+w I|strong="G1473"\+w* \+w know|strong="G1492"\+w* \+w that|strong="G3754"\+w* \+w you|strong="G4771"\+w* \+w always|strong="G3842"\+w* hear \+w me|strong="G1473"\+w*; \+w but|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w I|strong="G1473"\+w* \+w say|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w this|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w for|strong="G3754"\+w* \+w the|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w sake|strong="G1223"\+w* \+w of|strong="G1223"\+w* \+w the|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w people|strong="G3793"\+w* \+w standing|strong="G4026"\+w* near, \+w so|strong="G2443"\+w* \+w that|strong="G3754"\+w* \+w they|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w may|strong="G2443"\+w* \+w believe|strong="G4100"\+w* \+w that|strong="G3754"\+w* \+w you|strong="G4771"\+w* \+w have|strong="G1473"\+w* sent \+w me|strong="G1473"\+w* \+w as|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w your|strong="G1223"\+w* messenger.’
43 Then|strong="G2532", after|strong="G2532" saying|strong="G3004" this|strong="G3778", Jesus|strong="G3004" called|strong="G3004" in|strong="G2532" a|strong="G2532" loud|strong="G3173" voice|strong="G5456", ‘\+w Lazarus|strong="G2976"\+w*! \+w Come|strong="G1204"\+w* \+w out|strong="G1854"\+w*!’
44 The|strong="G2532" dead|strong="G2348" man|strong="G2348" came|strong="G1831" out|strong="G1831", wrapped|strong="G1210" hand|strong="G5495" and|strong="G2532" foot|strong="G4228" in|strong="G2532" a|strong="G2532" winding-sheet; his|strong="G2532" face|strong="G3799", too|strong="G2532", had|strong="G2424" been|strong="G2532" wrapped|strong="G1210" in|strong="G2532" a|strong="G2532" cloth|strong="G4676". ‘\+w Set|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w him|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w free|strong="G3089"\+w*,’ said|strong="G3004" Jesus|strong="G2424", ‘\+w and|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w let|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w him|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w go|strong="G5217"\+w*.’
45 In|strong="G1519" consequence of|strong="G1537" this|strong="G3588", many|strong="G4183" of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" people|strong="G4160", who|strong="G3739" had|strong="G2532" come|strong="G2064" to|strong="G1519" visit|strong="G2064" Mary|strong="G3137" and|strong="G2532" had|strong="G2532" seen|strong="G2300" what|strong="G3739" Jesus|strong="G2532" did|strong="G4160", put|strong="G4160" their|strong="G2532" faith|strong="G3739" in|strong="G1519" him|strong="G3588".
46 Some|strong="G5100" of|strong="G1537" them|strong="G3588", however|strong="G1161", went|strong="G2424" to|strong="G4314" the|strong="G2532" Pharisees|strong="G5330", and|strong="G2532" told|strong="G3004" them|strong="G3588" what|strong="G3739" he|strong="G2532" had|strong="G2424" done|strong="G4160".
47 The|strong="G2532" chief|strong="G2532" priests and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" Pharisees|strong="G5330" called|strong="G3004" a|strong="G2532" meeting|strong="G4863" of|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" High|strong="G2532" Council|strong="G4892", and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004", ‘What|strong="G5101" are|strong="G3588" we|strong="G3754" to|strong="G2532" do|strong="G4160", now|strong="G2532" that|strong="G3754" this|strong="G3778" man|strong="G3778" is|strong="G3588" giving|strong="G4160" so|strong="G3767" many|strong="G4183" signs|strong="G4592"?
48 If|strong="G1437" we|strong="G2249" allow him|strong="G3588" to|strong="G1519" continue|strong="G2532" as|strong="G1519" we|strong="G2249" are|strong="G3588" doing, everyone|strong="G3956" will|strong="G2532" believe|strong="G4100" in|strong="G1519" him|strong="G3588"; and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" Romans|strong="G4514" will|strong="G2532" come|strong="G2064" and|strong="G2532" will|strong="G2532" take|strong="G2532" from|strong="G2064" us|strong="G1519" both|strong="G2532" our|strong="G2532" Temple and|strong="G2532" our|strong="G2532" nation|strong="G1484".’
49 One|strong="G1520" of|strong="G1537" them|strong="G3588", however|strong="G1161", Caiaphas|strong="G2533", who|strong="G3588" was|strong="G1510" high|strong="G5100" priest that|strong="G3588" year|strong="G1763", said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G3004" them|strong="G3588",
50 ‘You|strong="G5210" are|strong="G3588" utterly mistaken. You|strong="G5210" do|strong="G2532" not|strong="G3361" consider|strong="G3049" that|strong="G3754" it|strong="G2532" is|strong="G3588" better|strong="G4851" for|strong="G3754" you|strong="G5210" that|strong="G3754" one|strong="G1520" person|strong="G1520" should|strong="G3588" die for|strong="G3754" the|strong="G2532" people|strong="G2992", rather than|strong="G5228" the|strong="G2532" whole|strong="G3650" nation|strong="G1484" should|strong="G3588" be|strong="G2532" destroyed.’
51 Now|strong="G1161" he|strong="G1161" did|strong="G1510" not|strong="G3756" say|strong="G3004" this|strong="G3778" of|strong="G5228" his|strong="G1438" own|strong="G1438" accord; but|strong="G1161", as|strong="G1161" high priest that|strong="G3754" year|strong="G1763", he|strong="G1161" prophesied|strong="G4395" that|strong="G3754" Jesus|strong="G2424" was|strong="G1510" to|strong="G3004" die for|strong="G3754" the|strong="G1161" nation|strong="G1484" –
52 And|strong="G2532" not|strong="G3756" for|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" nation|strong="G1484" only|strong="G3440", but|strong="G2532" also|strong="G2532" that|strong="G2443" he|strong="G2532" might|strong="G2532" unite in|strong="G1519" one|strong="G1520" body|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" children|strong="G5043" of|strong="G2316" God|strong="G2316" now|strong="G2532" scattered|strong="G1287" far|strong="G3588" and|strong="G2532" wide.
53 So|strong="G2443" from|strong="G3588" that|strong="G2443" day|strong="G2250" they|strong="G3588" plotted to|strong="G2443" put Jesus|strong="G1565" to|strong="G2443" death.
54 In|strong="G1722" consequence of|strong="G4172" this|strong="G3588", Jesus|strong="G2424" did|strong="G3767" not|strong="G3765" go|strong="G1519" about|strong="G1722" publicly|strong="G3954" among|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" people|strong="G3767" any|strong="G3765" more|strong="G3765", but|strong="G3767" left and|strong="G2453" went|strong="G2424" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1722" country|strong="G5561" bordering on|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" wilderness|strong="G2048", to|strong="G1519" a|strong="G1519" town|strong="G4172" called|strong="G3004" Ephraim|strong="G2187", where|strong="G1722" he|strong="G3588" stayed|strong="G3306" with|strong="G3326" his|strong="G1519" disciples|strong="G3101".
55 But|strong="G1161" the|strong="G2532" Jewish|strong="G2453" Festival of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" Passover|strong="G3957" was|strong="G1510" near|strong="G1451"; and|strong="G2532" many|strong="G4183" people|strong="G1510" had|strong="G2532" gone up|strong="G1519" from|strong="G1537" the|strong="G2532" country|strong="G5561" to|strong="G1519" Jerusalem|strong="G2414", for|strong="G1519" their|strong="G1438" purification, before|strong="G4253" the|strong="G2532" Festival began|strong="G1161".
56 So|strong="G3767" they|strong="G2532" looked|strong="G2532" for|strong="G3754" Jesus|strong="G2424" there|strong="G2532", and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" to|strong="G1519" one|strong="G3588" another|strong="G3588", as|strong="G1519" they|strong="G2532" stood|strong="G2476" in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" Temple|strong="G2413" Courts, ‘What|strong="G5101" do|strong="G5101" you|strong="G5210" think|strong="G1380"? Do|strong="G5101" you|strong="G5210" think|strong="G1380" he|strong="G2532" will|strong="G5101" come|strong="G2064" to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1722" Festival|strong="G1859"?’
57 The|strong="G2532" chief|strong="G2532" priests and|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" Pharisees|strong="G5330" had|strong="G2532" already issued orders|strong="G1785" that|strong="G2443", if|strong="G1437" anyone|strong="G5100" learned|strong="G1097" where|strong="G4226" Jesus|strong="G1510" was|strong="G1510", he|strong="G2532" should|strong="G5100" give|strong="G1325" information, so|strong="G2443" that|strong="G2443" they|strong="G2532" might|strong="G2532" arrest|strong="G4084" him|strong="G3588".
