And there was a certain one ailing, Lazarus, from Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister --

and it was Mary who did anoint the Lord with ointment, and did wipe his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ailing --

And Jesus was loving Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus,

These things he said, and after this he saith to them, 'Lazarus our friend hath fallen asleep, but I go on that I may awake him;'

Then, therefore, Jesus said to them freely, 'Lazarus hath died;

And these things saying, with a loud voice he cried out, 'Lazarus, come forth;'

Jesus, therefore, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where was Lazarus, who had died, whom he raised out of the dead;

they made, therefore, to him a supper there, and Martha was ministering, and Lazarus was one of those reclining together (at meat) with him;

A great multitude, therefore, of the Jews knew that he is there, and they came, not because of Jesus only, but that Lazarus also they may see, whom he raised out of the dead;

and the chief priests took counsel, that also Lazarus they may kill,

The multitude, therefore, who are with him, were testifying that he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and did raise him out of the dead;
