Jesus

but Jesus had spoken about his death, but they thought that about the repose of sleep he speaketh.

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

and I rejoice, for your sake, (that ye may believe,) that I was not there; but we may go to him;'

therefore said Thomas, who is called Didymus, to the fellow-disciples, `We may go--we also, that we may die with him,'

Jesus, therefore, having come, found him having been four days already in the tomb.

Martha, therefore, when she heard that Jesus doth come, met him, and Mary kept sitting in the house.

Martha, therefore, said unto Jesus, `Sir, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died;

but even now, I have known that whatever thou mayest ask of God, God will give to thee;'

Jesus saith to her, `Thy brother shall rise again.'

Martha saith to him, `I have known that he will rise again, in the rising again in the last day;'

Jesus said to her, `I am the rising again, and the life; he who is believing in me, even if he may die, shall live;

`Where have ye laid him?' they say to him, `Sir, come and see;'

Jesus wept.

The Jews, therefore, said, `Lo, how he was loving him!'

and certain of them said, `Was not this one, who did open the eyes of the blind man, able to cause that also this one might not have died?'

Jesus, therefore, again groaning in himself, cometh to the tomb, and it was a cave, and a stone was lying upon it,

Jesus saith, `Take ye away the stone;' the sister of him who hath died--Martha--saith to him, `Sir, already he stinketh, for he is four days dead;'

Jesus saith to her, `Said I not to thee, that if thou mayest believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?'

They took away, therefore, the stone where the dead was laid, and Jesus lifted his eyes upwards, and said, `Father, I thank Thee, that Thou didst hear me;
