1. Now a man was sick, Lazarus, from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
2. Mary was the one who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped His feet with her hair, and it was her brother Lazarus who was sick.
3. So the sisters sent a message to Him: “Lord, the one You love is sick.”
4. When Jesus heard it, He said, “This sickness will not end in death but is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”
5. Now Jesus loved Martha, her sister, and Lazarus.
6. So when He heard that he was sick, He stayed two more days in the place where He was.
