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

(it was that Mary who perfum'd the Lord with ointment, after having wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

however, he stay'd in the place where he was, even two days after he had heard that Lazarus was sick.

thus he entertain'd them: and after that, he said to them, our friend Lazarus is asleep; but I am going to awake him.

though Jesus meant it of Lazarus's death: but they understood it of the natural rest in sleep.

then Jesus told them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

When Jesus was arriv'd, he found that Lazarus had been then four days in the grave.

but some of them said, this man who has given sight to the blind, could not he have prevented Lazarus's death?

when he had spoke this, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

Six days before the passover Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, and raised to life again.

there a supper was provided for him; Martha was in waiting: but Lazarus was one of the guests that sat at table with him.

a great multitude of Jews knowing that Jesus was there, went thither, not for his sake only, but likewise to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.

for the chief priests had resolved to put even Lazarus to death;

the people that were present testified, that he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead.
