11These things said hee, and after that, hee saith vnto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth, but I goe, that I may awake him out of sleepe. 12Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleepe, he shall doe well. 13Howbeit Iesus spake of his death: but they thought that hee had spoken of taking of rest in sleepe. 14Then saide Iesus vnto them plainly, Lazarus is dead: 15And I am glad for your sakes, that I was not there (to the intent yee may beleeue:) Neuerthelesse, let vs goe vnto him.
