Scriptures

New King James Version (NKJV)

John 11
¹² Then His disciples said, "Lord, if he sleeps he will get well."
¹³ However, Jesus spoke of his death, but they thought that He was speaking about taking rest in sleep.
¹⁴ Then Jesus said to them plainly, "Lazarus is dead.
¹⁵ And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, that you may believe. Nevertheless let us go to him."
¹⁶ Then Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, "Let us also go, that we may die with Him."
¹⁷ So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days.
¹⁸ Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles away.
¹⁹ And many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.
²⁰ Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met Him, but Mary was sitting in the house.
²¹ Then Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.
²² But even now I know that whatever You ask of God, God will give You."
