In context
1 Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister.
2 And Mary was she who anointed the Lord with perfume, and wiped his feet with her hair—whose brother Lazarus was sick.
3 The sisters, therefore, sent out unto him, saying—Lord, see! he whom thou tenderly lovest, is sick.
4 But Jesus hearing, said—This sickness, is not unto death, but for the glory of God,—that the Son of God may be glorified thereby.
5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
6 When, therefore, he heard that he was sick, then, indeed, he abode in the place where he was, two days.
7 Then, after this, he saith unto the disciples—Let us be leading on into Judaea, again.
