And a certain beggar named Lazarus was laid at his gate, full of sores,

And in Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes, and saw Abraham far off and Lazarus in his bosom.

And he called out, 'Father Abraham, have mercy upon me, and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am in agony in this flame.'

But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and Lazarus received evil things; but now he is comforted here and you are in agony.

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

It was this Mary who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

These things he said, and after that he said to them, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I go to wake him up."

So then Jesus told them plainly, "Lazarus is dead;

When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!"

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

There they made him a supper; and Martha served, while Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.

Now a great crowd of the Jews learned that he was there, and they came, not only on account of Jesus but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.

So the chief priests planned to put Lazarus also to death,

The crowd that had been with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead bore witness.
