3 Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

4 When Jesus heard [that], he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.

8 [His] disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?
The disciples say to him: Rabbi, the Jews but now sought to stone thee: and goest thou thither again?
9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
Jesus answered: Are there not twelve hours of the day? If a man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world:
10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.

11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.

13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
But Jesus spoke of his death; and they thought that he spoke of the repose of sleep.
14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.
She saith to him: Yea, Lord, I have believed that thou art Christ the Son of the living God, who art come into this world.

40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
Jesus saith to her: Did not I say to thee, that if thou believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?
