And there was a certain beggar, named Lazarus, which lay at his gate full of sores,

And being in hell, in torments, he lift up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom;

And he cried and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue, for I am tormented in this flame.'

But Abraham said unto him, 'Son remember, that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy pleasure, and contrariwise, Lazarus pain. Now therefore is he comforted, and thou art punished.

Acertain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

It was that Mary which anointed Jesus with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick,

Jesus loved Martha and her sister, and Lazarus.

This said he. And after that he said unto them, "Our friend Lazarus sleepeth, but I go to wake him out of sleep."

Then said Jesus unto them, plainly, "Lazarus is dead,

And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus come forth."

Then Jesus, six days before Easter, came to Bethany: where Lazarus which was dead was, whom Jesus raised from death.

There they made him a supper, and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.

Much people of the Jews had knowledge that he was there. And they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also whom he raised from death.

The high priests therefore held a council that they might put Lazarus to death also,

The people that was with him, when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from death, bare record.
