10 But if a man walketh in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
11 These things he said: and after that he saith to them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.
12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleepeth he will do well.
13 Now Jesus spoke of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking rest in sleep.
14 Then said Jesus to them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless, let us go to him.
