¹Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.

KJVThen^G3767 Jesus^G2424 six^G1803 days^G2250 before^G4253 the passover^G3957 came^G2064^(G5627) to^G1519 Bethany^G963, where^G3699 Lazarus^G2976 was^G2258^(G5713) which^G3588 had been dead^G2348^(G5761), whom^G3739 he raised^G1453^(G5656) from^G1537 the dead^G3498.

² So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.

KJVThere^G1563^G3767 they made^G4160^(G5656) him^G846 a supper^G1173; and^G2532 Martha^G3136 served^G1247^(G5707): but^G1161 Lazarus^G2976 was^G2258^(G5713) one^G1520 of them that sat at the table^G4873^(G5740) with him^G846.

³ Therefore Mary took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.

KJVThen^G3767 took^G2983^(G5631) Mary^G3137 a pound^G3046 of ointment^G3464 of spikenard^G3487^G4101, very costly^G4186, and anointed^G218^(G5656) the feet^G4228 of Jesus^G2424, and^G2532 wiped^G1591^(G5656) his^G846 feet^G4228 with her^G846 hair^G2359: and^G1161 the house^G3614 was filled^G4137^(G5681) with^G1537 the odour^G3744 of the ointment^G3464.

⁴ Then Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,

KJVThen^G3767 saith^G3004^(G5719) one^G1520 of^G1537 his^G846 disciples^G3101, Judas^G2455 Iscariot^G2469, Simon's^G4613 son, which^G3588 should^G3195^(G5723) betray^G3860^(G5721) him^G846,

⁵ “Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”

KJVWhy^G1302 was^G4097 not^G3756 this^G5124 ointment^G3464 sold^G4097^(G5681) for three hundred^G5145 pence^G1220, and^G2532 given^G1325^(G5681) to the poor^G4434?

⁶ Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.

KJV^G1161 This^G5124 he said^G2036^(G5627), not^G3756 that^G3754 he^G846 cared^G3199^(G5707) for^G4012 the poor^G4434; but^G235 because^G3754 he was^G2258^(G5713) a thief^G2812, and^G2532 had^G2192^(G5707) the bag^G1101, and^G2532 bare^G941^(G5707) what was put therein^G906^(G5746).

⁷ But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.

KJVThen^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) Jesus^G2424, Let^G863 her^G846 alone^G863^(G5628): against^G1519 the day^G2250 of my^G3450 burying^G1780 hath she kept^G5083^(G5758) this^G846.

⁸ For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”

KJVFor^G1063 the poor^G4434 always^G3842 ye have^G2192^(G5719) with^G3326 you^G1438; but^G1161 me^G1691 ye have^G2192^(G5719) not^G3756 always^G3842.

⁹ A large crowd therefore of the Jews learned that he was there; and they came, not for Jesus’ sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.

KJVMuch^G4183 people^G3793 of^G1537 the Jews^G2453 therefore^G3767 knew^G1097^(G5627) that^G3754 he was^G2076^(G5748) there^G1563: and^G2532 they came^G2064^(G5627) not^G3756 for^G1223 Jesus^G2424' sake only^G3440, but^G235 that^G2443 they might see^G1492^(G5632) Lazarus^G2976 also^G2532, whom^G3739 he had raised^G1453^(G5656) from^G1537 the dead^G3498.

¹⁰ But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also,

KJVBut^G1161 the chief priests^G749 consulted^G1011^(G5662) that^G2443 they might put^G615 Lazarus^G2976 also^G2532 to death^G615^(G5725);

¹¹ because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.

KJVBecause^G3754 that by reason^G1223 of him^G846 many^G4183 of the Jews^G2453 went away^G5217^(G5707), and^G2532 believed^G4100^(G5707) on^G1519 Jesus^G2424.

¹² On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

KJVOn the next day^G1887 much^G4183 people^G3793 that were come^G2064^(G5631) to^G1519 the feast^G1859, when they heard^G191^(G5660) that^G3754 Jesus^G2424 was coming^G2064^(G5736) to^G1519 Jerusalem^G2414,

¹³ they took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet him, and cried out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!”

KJVTook^G2983^(G5627) branches^G902 of palm trees^G5404, and^G2532 went forth^G1831^(G5627) to^G1519 meet^G5222 him^G846, and^G2532 cried^G2896^(G5707), Hosanna^G5614: Blessed^G2127^(G5772) is the King^G935 of Israel^G2474 that cometh^G2064^(G5740) in^G1722 the name^G3686 of the Lord^G2962.

¹⁴ Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,

KJVAnd^G1161 Jesus^G2424, when he had found^G2147^(G5631) a young ass^G3678, sat^G2523^(G5656) thereon^G1909^G846; as^G2531 it is^G2076^(G5748) written^G1125^(G5772),

¹⁵ “Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.”

KJVFear^G5399^(G5732)^(G5737) not^G3361, daughter^G2364 of Sion^G4622: behold^G2400^(G5628), thy^G4675 King^G935 cometh^G2064^(G5736), sitting^G2521^(G5740) on^G1909 an ass's^G3688 colt^G4454.

¹⁶ His disciples didn’t understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.

KJV^G1161 These things^G5023 understood^G1097^(G5627) not^G3756 his^G846 disciples^G3101 at the first^G4412: but^G235 when^G3753 Jesus^G2424 was glorified^G1392^(G5681), then^G5119 remembered they^G3415^(G5681) that^G3754 these things^G5023 were^G2258^(G5713) written^G1125^(G5772) of^G1909 him^G846, and^G2532 that they had done^G4160^(G5656) these things^G5023 unto him^G846.

¹⁷ The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead was testifying about it.

KJVThe people^G3793 therefore^G3767 that was^G5607^(G5752) with^G3326 him^G846 when^G3753 he called^G5455^(G5656) Lazarus^G2976 out of^G1537 his grave^G3419, and^G2532 raised^G1453^(G5656) him^G846 from^G1537 the dead^G3498, bare record^G3140^(G5707).

¹⁸ For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.

KJVFor this^G5124 cause^G1223 the people^G3793 also^G2532 met^G5221^(G5656) him^G846, for that^G3754 they heard^G191^(G5656) that^G846 he had done^G4160^(G5760) this^G5124 miracle^G4592.

¹⁹ The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”

KJVThe Pharisees^G5330 therefore^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) among^G4314 themselves^G1438, Perceive ye^G2334^(G5719)^(G5720) how^G3754 ye prevail^G5623^(G5719) nothing^G3756^G3762? behold^G2396, the world^G2889 is gone^G565^(G5627) after^G3694 him^G846.

²⁰ Now there were certain Greeks among those who went up to worship at the feast.

KJVAnd^G1161 there were^G2258^(G5713) certain^G5100 Greeks^G1672 among^G1537 them that came up^G305^(G5723) to^G2443 worship^G4352^(G5661) at^G1722 the feast^G1859:

²¹ Therefore, these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”

KJVThe same^G3778 came^G4334^(G5656) therefore^G3767 to Philip^G5376, which was of^G575 Bethsaida^G966 of Galilee^G1056, and^G2532 desired^G2065^(G5707) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Sir^G2962, we would^G2309^(G5719) see^G1492^(G5629) Jesus^G2424.

²² Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus.

KJVPhilip^G5376 cometh^G2064^(G5736) and^G2532 telleth^G3004^(G5719) Andrew^G406: and^G2532 again^G3825 Andrew^G406 and^G2532 Philip^G5376 tell^G3004^(G5719) Jesus^G2424.

²³ Jesus answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.

KJVAnd^G1161 Jesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662) them^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), The hour^G5610 is come^G2064^(G5754), that^G2443 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 should be glorified^G1392^(G5686).

²⁴ Most certainly I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit.

KJVVerily^G281, verily^G281, I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, Except^G3362 a corn^G2848 of wheat^G4621 fall^G4098^(G5631) into^G1519 the ground^G1093 and die^G599^(G5632), it^G846 abideth^G3306^(G5719) alone^G3441: but^G1161 if^G1437 it die^G599^(G5632), it bringeth forth^G5342^(G5719) much^G4183 fruit^G2590.

²⁵ He who loves his life will lose it. He who hates his life in this world will keep it to eternal life.

KJVHe that loveth^G5368^(G5723) his^G846 life^G5590 shall lose^G622^(G5692) it^G846; and^G2532 he that hateth^G3404^(G5723) his^G846 life^G5590 in^G1722 this^G5129 world^G2889 shall keep^G5442^(G5692) it^G846 unto^G1519 life^G2222 eternal^G166.

²⁶ If anyone serves me, let him follow me. Where I am, there my servant will also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.

KJVIf^G1437 any man^G5100 serve^G1247^(G5725) me^G1698, let him follow^G190^(G5720) me^G1698; and^G2532 where^G3699 I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748), there^G1563 shall^G2071 also^G2532 my^G1699 servant^G1249 be^G2071^(G5704):^G2532 if^G1437 any man^G5100 serve^G1247^(G5725) me^G1698, him^G846 will^G5091 my Father^G3962 honour^G5091^(G5692).

²⁷ “Now my soul is troubled. What shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this time’? But I came to this time for this cause.

KJVNow^G3568 is^G5015 my^G3450 soul^G5590 troubled^G5015^(G5769); and^G2532 what^G5101 shall I say^G2036^(G5632)? Father^G3962, save^G4982^(G5657) me^G3165 from^G1537 this^G5026 hour^G5610: but^G235 for this^G5124 cause^G1223 came I^G2064^(G5627) unto^G1519 this^G5026 hour^G5610.

²⁸ Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.”

KJVFather^G3962, glorify^G1392^(G5657) thy^G4675 name^G3686. Then^G3767 came there^G2064^(G5627) a voice^G5456 from^G1537 heaven^G3772, saying, I have^G1392 both^G2532 glorified^G1392^(G5656) it, and^G2532 will glorify^G1392^(G5692) it again^G3825.

²⁹ Therefore the multitude who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.”

KJVThe people^G3793 therefore^G3767, that stood by^G2476^(G5761), and^G2532 heard^G191^(G5660) it, said^G3004^(G5707) that it thundered^G1096^(G5755)^G1027: others^G243 said^G3004^(G5707), An angel^G32 spake^G2980^(G5758) to him^G846.

³⁰ Jesus answered, “This voice hasn’t come for my sake, but for your sakes.

KJVJesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662) and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627), This^G3778 voice^G5456 came^G1096^(G5754) not^G3756 because of^G1223 me^G1691, but^G235 for^G1223 your sakes^G5209^G1223.

³¹ Now is the judgment of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.

KJVNow^G3568 is^G2076^(G5748) the judgment^G2920 of this^G5127 world^G2889: now^G3568 shall^G1544 the prince^G758 of this^G5127 world^G2889 be cast^G1544^(G5701) out^G1854.

³² And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”

KJVAnd I^G2504, if^G1437 I be lifted up^G5312^(G5686) from^G1537 the earth^G1093, will draw^G1670^(G5692) all^G3956 men unto^G4314 me^G1683.

³³ But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.

KJV^G1161 This^G5124 he said^G3004^(G5707), signifying^G4591^(G5723) what^G4169 death^G2288 he should^G3195^(G5707) die^G599^(G5721).

³⁴ The multitude answered him, “We have heard out of the law that the Christ remains forever. How do you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?”

KJVThe people^G3793 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, We^G2249 have heard^G191^(G5656) out of^G1537 the law^G3551 that^G3754 Christ^G5547 abideth^G3306^(G5719) for^G1519 ever^G165: and^G2532 how^G4459 sayest^G3004^(G5719) thou^G4771,^G3754 The Son^G5207 of man^G444 must^G1163^(G5748) be lifted up^G5312^(G5683)? who^G5101 is^G2076^(G5748) this^G3778 Son^G5207 of man^G444?

³⁵ Jesus therefore said to them, “Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn’t overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn’t know where he is going.

KJVThen^G3767 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Yet^G2089 a little^G3398 while^G5550 is^G2076^(G5748) the light^G5457 with^G3326 you^G5216. Walk^G4043^(G5720) while^G2193 ye have^G2192^(G5719) the light^G5457, lest^G3363 darkness^G4653 come upon^G2638^(G5632) you^G5209: for^G2532 he that walketh^G4043^(G5723) in^G1722 darkness^G4653 knoweth^G1492^(G5758) not^G3756 whither^G4226 he goeth^G5217^(G5719).

³⁶ While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light.” Jesus said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.

KJVWhile^G2193 ye have^G2192^(G5719) light^G5457, believe^G4100^(G5720) in^G1519 the light^G5457, that^G2443 ye may be^G1096^(G5638) the children^G5207 of light^G5457. These things^G5023 spake^G2980^(G5656) Jesus^G2424, and departed^G565^(G5631), and^G2532 did hide himself^G2928^(G5648) from^G575 them^G846.

³⁷ But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they didn’t believe in him,

KJVBut^G1161 though he^G846 had done^G4160^(G5761) so many^G5118 miracles^G4592 before^G1715 them^G846, yet they believed^G4100^(G5707) not^G3756 on^G1519 him^G846:

³⁸ that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: “Lord, who has believed our report? To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”

KJVThat^G2443 the saying^G3056 of Esaias^G2268 the prophet^G4396 might be fulfilled^G4137^(G5686), which^G3739 he spake^G2036^(G5627), Lord^G2962, who^G5101 hath believed^G4100^(G5656) our^G2257 report^G189? and^G2532 to whom^G5101 hath the arm^G1023 of the Lord^G2962 been revealed^G601^(G5681)?

³⁹ For this cause they couldn’t believe, for Isaiah said again:

KJVTherefore^G5124^G1223 they could^G1410^(G5711) not^G3756 believe^G4100^(G5721), because^G3754 that Esaias^G2268 said^G2036^(G5627) again^G3825,

⁴⁰ “He has blinded their eyes and he hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and perceive with their heart, and would turn, and I would heal them.”

KJVHe hath blinded^G5186^(G5758) their^G846 eyes^G3788, and^G2532 hardened^G4456^(G5758) their^G846 heart^G2588; that^G3363 they should^G1492 not^G3363 see^G1492^(G5632) with their eyes^G3788, nor^G2532 understand^G3539^(G5661) with their heart^G2588, and^G2532 be converted^G1994^(G5652), and^G2532 I should heal^G2390^(G5667) them^G846.

⁴¹ Isaiah said these things when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.

KJVThese things^G5023 said^G2036^(G5627) Esaias^G2268, when^G3753 he saw^G1492^(G5627) his^G846 glory^G1391, and^G2532 spake^G2980^(G5656) of^G4012 him^G846.

⁴² Nevertheless, even many of the rulers believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they didn’t confess it, so that they wouldn’t be put out of the synagogue,

KJVNevertheless^G3676^G3305 among^G1537 the chief rulers^G758 also^G2532 many^G4183 believed^G4100^(G5656) on^G1519 him^G846; but^G235 because^G1223 of the Pharisees^G5330 they did^G3670 not^G3756 confess^G3670^(G5707) him, lest^G3363 they should be^G1096^(G5638) put out of the synagogue^G656:

⁴³ for they loved men’s praise more than God’s praise.

KJVFor^G1063 they loved^G25^(G5656) the praise^G1391 of men^G444 more^G3123 than^G2260 the praise^G1391 of God^G2316.

⁴⁴ Jesus cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.

KJV^G1161 Jesus^G2424 cried^G2896^(G5656) and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627), He that believeth^G4100^(G5723) on^G1519 me^G1691, believeth^G4100^(G5719) not^G3756 on^G1519 me^G1691, but^G235 on^G1519 him that sent^G3992^(G5660) me^G3165.

⁴⁵ He who sees me sees him who sent me.

KJVAnd^G2532 he that seeth^G2334^(G5723) me^G1691 seeth^G2334^(G5719) him that sent^G3992^(G5660) me^G3165.

⁴⁶ I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.

KJVI^G1473 am come^G2064^(G5754) a light^G5457 into^G1519 the world^G2889, that^G3363 whosoever^G3956 believeth^G4100^(G5723) on^G1519 me^G1691 should^G3306 not^G3363 abide^G3306^(G5661) in^G1722 darkness^G4653.

⁴⁷ If anyone listens to my sayings and doesn’t believe, I don’t judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

KJVAnd^G2532 if^G3362 any man^G5100 hear^G191^(G5661) my^G3450 words^G4487, and^G2532 believe^G4100^(G5661) not^G3362, I^G1473 judge^G2919^(G5692)^(G5719) him^G846 not^G3756: for^G1063 I came^G2064^(G5627) not^G3756 to^G2443 judge^G2919^(G5725) the world^G2889, but^G235 to^G2443 save^G4982^(G5661) the world^G2889.

⁴⁸ He who rejects me, and doesn’t receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke will judge him in the last day.

KJVFor^G3754 I^G1473 have^G2980 not^G3756 spoken^G2980^(G5656) of^G1537 myself^G1683; but^G235 the Father^G3962 which sent^G3992^(G5660) me^G3165, he^G846 gave^G1325^(G5656) me^G3427 a commandment^G1785, what^G5101 I should say^G2036^(G5632), and^G2532 what^G5101 I should speak^G2980^(G5661).

WEB·John 11

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

KJVNow^G1161 a certain^G5100 man was^G2258^(G5713) sick^G770^(G5723), named Lazarus^G2976, of^G575 Bethany^G963,^G1537 the town^G2968 of Mary^G3137 and^G2532 her^G846 sister^G79 Martha^G3136.

² It was that Mary who had anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

KJV^G1161(It was^G2258^(G5713) that Mary^G3137 which^G3588 anointed^G218^(G5660) the Lord^G2962 with ointment^G3464, and^G2532 wiped^G1591^(G5660) his^G846 feet^G4228 with her^G846 hair^G2359, whose^G3739 brother^G80 Lazarus^G2976 was sick^G770^(G5707).)

³ The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, “Lord, behold, he for whom you have great affection is sick.”

KJVTherefore^G3767 his sisters^G79 sent^G649^(G5656) unto^G4314 him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Lord^G2962, behold^G2396, he whom^G3739 thou lovest^G5368^(G5719) is sick^G770^(G5719).

⁴ But when Jesus heard it, he said, “This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that God’s Son may be glorified by it.”

KJVWhen^G1161 Jesus^G2424 heard^G191^(G5660) that, he said^G2036^(G5627), This^G3778 sickness^G769 is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 unto^G4314 death^G2288, but^G235 for^G5228 the glory^G1391 of God^G2316, that^G2443 the Son^G5207 of God^G2316 might be glorified^G1392^(G5686) thereby^G1223^G846.

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

KJVNow^G1161 Jesus^G2424 loved^G25^(G5707) Martha^G3136, and^G2532 her^G846 sister^G79, and^G2532 Lazarus^G2976.

⁶ When therefore he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days in the place where he was.

KJVWhen^G5613 he had heard^G191^(G5656) therefore^G3767 that^G3754 he was sick^G770^(G5719), he abode^G3306^(G5656) two^G1417 days^G2250 still^G5119^G3303 in^G1722 the same place^G5117 where^G3739 he was^G2258^(G5713).

⁷ Then after this he said to the disciples, “Let’s go into Judea again.”

KJVThen^G1899 after^G3326 that^G5124 saith he^G3004^(G5719) to his disciples^G3101, Let us go^G71^(G5725) into^G1519 Judaea^G2449 again^G3825.

⁸ The disciples asked him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just trying to stone you. Are you going there again?”

KJVHis disciples^G3101 say^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Master^G4461, the Jews^G2453 of late^G3568 sought^G2212^(G5707) to stone^G3034^(G5658) thee^G4571; and^G2532 goest thou^G5217^(G5719) thither^G1563 again^G3825?

⁹ Jesus answered, “Aren’t there twelve hours of daylight? If a man walks in the day, he doesn’t stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

KJVJesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662), Are there^G1526^(G5748) not^G3780 twelve^G1427 hours^G5610 in the day^G2250? If^G1437 any man^G5100 walk^G4043^(G5725) in^G1722 the day^G2250, he stumbleth^G4350^(G5719) not^G3756, because^G3754 he seeth^G991^(G5719) the light^G5457 of this^G5127 world^G2889.

¹⁰ But if a man walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light isn’t in him.”

KJVBut^G1161 if^G1437 a man^G5100 walk^G4043^(G5725) in^G1722 the night^G3571, he stumbleth^G4350^(G5719), because^G3754 there is^G2076^(G5748) no^G3756 light^G5457 in^G1722 him^G846.

¹¹ He said these things, and after that, he said to them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep.”

KJVThese things^G5023 said^G2036^(G5627) he^G846: and^G2532 after^G3326 that^G5124 he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Our^G2257 friend^G5384 Lazarus^G2976 sleepeth^G2837^(G5769); but^G235 I go^G4198^(G5736), that^G2443 I may awake^G1852 him^G846 out of sleep^G1852^(G5661).

¹² The disciples therefore said, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.”

KJVThen^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) his^G846 disciples^G3101, Lord^G2962, if^G1487 he sleep^G2837^(G5769), he shall do well^G4982^(G5701).

¹³ Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep.

KJVHowbeit^G1161 Jesus^G2424 spake^G2046^(G5715) of^G4012 his^G846 death^G2288: but^G1161 they^G1565 thought^G1380^(G5656) that^G3754 he had spoken^G3004^(G5719) of^G4012 taking of rest^G2838 in sleep^G5258.

¹⁴ So Jesus said to them plainly then, “Lazarus is dead.

KJVThen^G5119^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) Jesus^G2424 unto them^G846 plainly^G3954, Lazarus^G2976 is dead^G599^(G5627).

¹⁵ I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless, let’s go to him.”

KJVAnd^G2532 I am glad^G5463^(G5719) for^G1223 your sakes^G5209 that^G3754 I was^G2252^(G5713)^(G5625)^G2258^(G5713) not^G3756 there^G1563, to the intent^G2443 ye may believe^G4100^(G5661); nevertheless^G235 let us go^G71^(G5725) unto^G4314 him^G846.

¹⁶ Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, “Let’s also go, that we may die with him.”

KJVThen^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) Thomas^G2381, which^G3588 is called^G3004^(G5746) Didymus^G1324, unto his fellowdisciples^G4827, Let us^G71 also^G2532 go^G71^(G5725), that^G2443 we^G2249 may die^G599^(G5632) with^G3326 him^G846.

¹⁷ So when Jesus came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already.

KJVThen^G3767 when Jesus^G2424 came^G2064^(G5631), he found^G2147^(G5627) that he^G846 had^G2192^(G5723) lain in^G1722 the grave^G3419 four^G5064 days^G2250 already^G2235.

¹⁸ Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia away.

KJVNow^G1161 Bethany^G963 was^G2258^(G5713) nigh^G1451 unto Jerusalem^G2414, about^G5613 fifteen^G1178 furlongs^G4712 off^G575:

¹⁹ Many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.

KJVAnd^G2532 many^G4183 of^G1537 the Jews^G2453 came^G2064^(G5715) to^G4314 Martha^G3136 and^G2532 Mary^G3137^G4012, to^G2443 comfort^G3888^(G5667) them^G846 concerning^G4012 their^G846 brother^G80.

²⁰ Then when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary stayed in the house.

KJVThen^G3767 Martha^G3136, as soon as^G5613 she heard^G191^(G5656) that^G3754 Jesus^G2424 was coming^G2064^(G5736), went and met^G5221^(G5656) him^G846: but^G1161 Mary^G3137 sat^G2516^(G5711) still in^G1722 the house^G3624.

²¹ Therefore Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.

KJVThen^G3767 said^G2036^(G5627) Martha^G3136 unto^G4314 Jesus^G2424, Lord^G2962, if^G1487 thou hadst been^G2258^(G5713) here^G5602, my^G3450 brother^G80^G302 had^G2348 not^G3756 died^G2348^(G5715).

²² Even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you.”

KJVBut^G235 I know^G1492^(G5758), that even^G2532 now^G3568, whatsoever^G3754^G3745^G302 thou wilt ask^G154^(G5672) of God^G2316, God^G2316 will give^G1325^(G5692) it thee^G4671.

²³ Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”

KJVJesus^G2424 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto her^G846, Thy^G4675 brother^G80 shall rise again^G450^(G5698).

²⁴ Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”

KJVMartha^G3136 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, I know^G1492^(G5758) that^G3754 he shall rise again^G450^(G5698) in^G1722 the resurrection^G386 at^G1722 the last^G2078 day^G2250.

²⁵ Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.

KJVJesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto her^G846, I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) the resurrection^G386, and^G2532 the life^G2222: he that believeth^G4100^(G5723) in^G1519 me^G1691, though^G2579 he were dead^G599^(G5632), yet shall he live^G2198^(G5695):

²⁶ Whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?”

KJVAnd^G2532 whosoever^G3956 liveth^G2198^(G5723) and^G2532 believeth^G4100^(G5723) in^G1519 me^G1691 shall^G599 never^G3364^G1519^G165 die^G599^(G5632). Believest thou^G4100^(G5719) this^G5124?

²⁷ She said to him, “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, God’s Son, he who comes into the world.”

KJVShe saith^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Yea^G3483, Lord^G2962: I^G1473 believe^G4100^(G5758) that^G3754 thou^G4771 art^G1488^(G5748) the Christ^G5547, the Son^G5207 of God^G2316, which^G3588 should come^G2064^(G5740) into^G1519 the world^G2889.

²⁸ When she had said this, she went away and called Mary, her sister, secretly, saying, “The Teacher is here and is calling you.”

KJVAnd^G2532 when she had^G2036 so^G5023 said^G2036^(G5631), she went her way^G565^(G5627), and^G2532 called^G5455^(G5656) Mary^G3137 her^G846 sister^G79 secretly^G2977, saying^G2036^(G5631), The Master^G1320 is come^G3918^(G5748), and^G2532 calleth for^G5455^(G5719) thee^G4571.

²⁹ When she heard this, she arose quickly and went to him.

KJVAs soon as^G5613 she^G1565 heard^G191^(G5656) that, she arose^G1453^(G5743) quickly^G5035, and^G2532 came^G2064^(G5736) unto^G4314 him^G846.

³⁰ Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha met him.

KJVNow^G1161 Jesus^G2424 was^G2064 not yet^G3768 come^G2064^(G5715) into^G1519 the town^G2968, but^G235 was^G2258^(G5713) in^G1722 that place^G5117 where^G3699 Martha^G3136 met^G5221^(G5656) him^G846.

³¹ Then the Jews who were with her in the house and were consoling her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there.”

KJVThe Jews^G2453 then^G3767 which^G3588 were^G5607^(G5752) with^G3326 her^G846 in^G1722 the house^G3614, and^G2532 comforted^G3888^(G5740) her^G846, when they saw^G1492^(G5631) Mary^G3137, that^G3754 she rose up^G450^(G5627) hastily^G5030 and^G2532 went out^G1831^(G5627), followed^G190^(G5656) her^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723),^G3754 She goeth^G5217^(G5719) unto^G1519 the grave^G3419 to^G2443 weep^G2799^(G5661) there^G1563.

³² Therefore when Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.”

KJVThen^G3767 when^G5613 Mary^G3137 was come^G2064^(G5627) where^G3699 Jesus^G2424 was^G2258^(G5713), and saw^G1492^(G5631) him^G846, she fell down^G4098^(G5627) at^G1519 his^G846 feet^G4228, saying^G3004^(G5723) unto him^G846, Lord^G2962, if^G1487 thou hadst been^G2258^(G5713) here^G5602, my^G3450 brother^G80 had^G302 not^G3756 died^G599^(G5627).

³³ When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping who came with her, he groaned in the spirit and was troubled,

KJVWhen^G5613 Jesus^G2424 therefore^G3767 saw^G1492^(G5627) her^G846 weeping^G2799^(G5723), and^G2532 the Jews^G2453 also weeping^G2799^(G5723) which came^G4905^(G5631) with her^G846, he groaned^G1690^(G5662) in the spirit^G4151, and^G2532 was troubled^G5015^(G5656)^G1438,

³⁴ and said, “Where have you laid him?” They told him, “Lord, come and see.”

KJVAnd^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627), Where^G4226 have ye laid^G5087^(G5758) him^G846? They said^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Lord^G2962, come^G2064^(G5736) and^G2532 see^G1492^(G5657).

³⁵ Jesus wept.

KJVJesus^G2424 wept^G1145^(G5656).

³⁶ The Jews therefore said, “See how much affection he had for him!”

KJVThen^G3767 said^G3004^(G5707) the Jews^G2453, Behold^G2396 how^G4459 he loved^G5368^(G5707) him^G846!

³⁷ Some of them said, “Couldn’t this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?”

KJVAnd^G1161 some^G5100 of^G1537 them^G846 said^G2036^(G5627), Could^G1410^(G5711) not^G3756 this man^G3778, which^G3588 opened^G455^(G5660) the eyes^G3788 of the blind^G5185, have caused^G4160^(G5658) that^G2443 even^G2532 this man^G3778 should^G599 not^G3361 have died^G599^(G5632)?

³⁸ Jesus therefore, again groaning in himself, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.

KJVJesus^G2424 therefore^G3767 again^G3825 groaning^G1690^(G5740) in^G1722 himself^G1438 cometh^G2064^(G5736) to^G1519 the grave^G3419.^G1161 It was^G2258^(G5713) a cave^G4693, and^G2532 a stone^G3037 lay^G1945^(G5711) upon^G1909 it^G846.

³⁹ Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.”

KJVJesus^G2424 said^G3004^(G5719), Take ye away^G142^(G5657) the stone^G3037. Martha^G3136, the sister^G79 of him that was dead^G2348^(G5761), saith^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Lord^G2962, by this time^G2235 he stinketh^G3605^(G5719): for^G1063 he hath been^G2076^(G5748) dead four days^G5066.

⁴⁰ Jesus said to her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believed, you would see God’s glory?”

KJVJesus^G2424 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto her^G846, Said I^G2036^(G5627) not^G3756 unto thee^G4671, that^G3754, if^G1437 thou wouldest believe^G4100^(G5661), thou shouldest see^G3700^(G5695) the glory^G1391 of God^G2316?

⁴¹ So they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, “Father, I thank you that you listened to me.

KJVThen^G3767 they took away^G142^(G5656) the stone^G3037 from the place where^G3757 the dead^G2348^(G5761) was^G2258^(G5713) laid^G2749^(G5740). And^G1161 Jesus^G2424 lifted^G142^(G5656) up^G507 his eyes^G3788, and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627), Father^G3962, I thank^G2168^(G5719) thee^G4671 that^G3754 thou hast heard^G191^(G5656) me^G3450.

⁴² I know that you always listen to me, but because of the multitude standing around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me.”

KJVAnd^G1161 I^G1473 knew^G1492^(G5715) that^G3754 thou hearest^G191^(G5719) me^G3450 always^G3842: but^G235 because^G1223 of the people^G3793 which^G3588 stand by^G4026^(G5761) I said^G2036^(G5627) it, that^G2443 they may believe^G4100^(G5661) that^G3754 thou^G4771 hast sent^G649^(G5656) me^G3165.

⁴³ When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”

KJVAnd^G2532 when he thus^G5023 had spoken^G2036^(G5631), he cried^G2905^(G5656) with a loud^G3173 voice^G5456, Lazarus^G2976, come^G1204^(G5773) forth^G1854.

⁴⁴ He who was dead came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Free him, and let him go.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he that was dead^G2348^(G5761) came forth^G1831^(G5627), bound^G1210^(G5772) hand^G5495 and^G2532 foot^G4228 with graveclothes^G2750: and^G2532 his^G846 face^G3799 was bound about^G4019^(G5718) with a napkin^G4676. Jesus^G2424 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Loose^G3089^(G5657) him^G846, and^G2532 let him^G863^(G5628) go^G5217^(G5721).

⁴⁵ Therefore many of the Jews who came to Mary and saw what Jesus did believed in him.

KJVThen^G3767 many^G4183 of^G1537 the Jews^G2453 which^G3588 came^G2064^(G5631) to^G4314 Mary^G3137, and^G2532 had seen^G2300^(G5666) the things which^G3739 Jesus^G2424 did^G4160^(G5656), believed^G4100^(G5656) on^G1519 him^G846.

⁴⁶ But some of them went away to the Pharisees and told them the things which Jesus had done.

KJVBut^G1161 some^G5100 of^G1537 them^G846 went their ways^G565^(G5627) to^G4314 the Pharisees^G5330, and^G2532 told^G2036^(G5627) them^G846 what things^G3739 Jesus^G2424 had done^G4160^(G5656).

⁴⁷ The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, “What are we doing? For this man does many signs.

KJVThen^G3767 gathered^G4863^(G5627) the chief priests^G749 and^G2532 the Pharisees^G5330 a council^G4892, and^G2532 said^G3004^(G5707), What^G5101 do we^G4160^(G5719)? for^G3754 this^G3778 man^G444 doeth^G4160^(G5719) many^G4183 miracles^G4592.

⁴⁸ If we leave him alone like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”

KJVIf^G1437 we let^G863 him^G846 thus^G3779 alone^G863^(G5632), all^G3956 men will believe^G4100^(G5692) on^G1519 him^G846: and^G2532 the Romans^G4514 shall come^G2064^(G5695) and^G2532 take away^G142^(G5692) both^G2532 our^G2257 place^G5117 and^G2532 nation^G1484.

⁴⁹ But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all,

KJVAnd^G1161 one^G1520^G5100 of^G1537 them^G846, named Caiaphas^G2533, being^G5607^(G5752) the high priest^G749 that same^G1565 year^G1763, said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Ye^G5210 know^G1492^(G5758) nothing at all^G3756^G3762,

⁵⁰ nor do you consider that it is advantageous for us that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish.”

KJVNor^G3761 consider^G1260^(G5736) that^G3754 it is expedient^G4851^(G5719) for us^G2254, that^G2443 one^G1520 man^G444 should die^G599^(G5632) for^G5228 the people^G2992, and^G2532 that the whole^G3650 nation^G1484 perish^G622^(G5643) not^G3361.

⁵¹ Now he didn’t say this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,

KJVAnd^G1161 this^G5124 spake he^G2036^(G5627) not^G3756 of^G575 himself^G1438: but^G235 being^G5607^(G5752) high priest^G749 that^G1565 year^G1763, he prophesied^G4395^(G5656) that^G3754 Jesus^G2424 should^G3195^(G5707) die^G599^(G5721) for that^G5228 nation^G1484;

⁵² and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.

KJVAnd^G2532 not^G3756 for that^G5228 nation^G1484 only^G3440, but^G235 that^G2443 also^G2532 he should gather together^G4863^(G5632) in^G1519 one^G1520 the children^G5043 of God^G2316 that were scattered abroad^G1287^(G5772).

⁵³ So from that day forward they took counsel that they might put him to death.

KJVThen^G3767 from^G575 that^G1565 day^G2250 forth they took counsel together^G4823^(G5668) for to^G2443 put^G615 him^G846 to death^G615^(G5725).

⁵⁴ Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews, but departed from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim. He stayed there with his disciples.

KJVJesus^G2424 therefore^G3767 walked^G4043^(G5707) no more^G3765 openly^G3954 among^G1722 the Jews^G2453; but^G235 went^G565^(G5627) thence^G1564 unto^G1519 a country^G5561 near^G1451 to the wilderness^G2048, into^G1519 a city^G4172 called^G3004^(G5746) Ephraim^G2187, and there^G2546 continued^G1304^(G5707) with^G3326 his^G846 disciples^G3101.

⁵⁵ Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand. Many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.

KJVAnd^G1161 the Jews^G2453' passover^G3957 was^G2258^(G5713) nigh at hand^G1451: and^G2532 many^G4183 went^G305^(G5627) out of^G1537 the country^G5561 up^G1519 to Jerusalem^G2414 before^G4253 the passover^G3957, to^G2443 purify^G48^(G5661) themselves^G1438.

⁵⁶ Then they sought for Jesus and spoke with one another as they stood in the temple, “What do you think—that he isn’t coming to the feast at all?”

KJVThen^G3767 sought they for^G2212^(G5707) Jesus^G2424, and^G2532 spake^G3004^(G5707) among^G3326 themselves^G240, as they stood^G2476^(G5761) in^G1722 the temple^G2411, What^G5101 think^G1380^(G5719) ye^G5213, that^G3754 he will^G2064 not^G3364 come^G2064^(G5632) to^G1519 the feast^G1859?

⁵⁷ Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had commanded that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, that they might seize him.

KJVNow^G1161 both^G2532 the chief priests^G749 and^G2532 the Pharisees^G5330 had given^G1325^(G5715) a commandment^G1785, that^G2443, if^G1437 any man^G5100 knew^G1097^(G5632) where^G4226 he were^G2076^(G5748), he should shew^G3377^(G5661) it, that^G3704 they might take^G4084^(G5661) him^G846.
