Lazarus

And a certaine man was sicke, named Lazarus of Bethania, the towne of Marie, and her sister Martha.

(And it was that Mary which anointed the Lord with oyntment, and wiped his feete with her heare, whose brother Lazarus was sicke.)

Nowe Iesus loued Martha and her sister, and Lazarus.

These things spake he, and after, he said vnto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth: but I goe to wake him vp.

Then saide Iesus vnto them plainely, Lazarus is dead.

As hee had spoken these things, hee cried with a loude voyce, Lazarus, come foorth.

Then Iesus, sixe dayes before the Passeouer, came to Bethania, where Lazarus was, who died, whom he had raised from the dead.

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

Then much people of the Iewes knewe that hee was there: and they came, not for Iesus sake onely, but that they might see Lazarus also, whome he had raysed from the dead.

The hie Priestes therefore consulted, that they might put Lazarus to death also,

The people therefore that was with him, bare witnesse that hee called Lazarus out of the graue, and raised him from the dead.
