But Jesus having heard, said, "This sickness is not to death,_but_ [it is] for the glory of God, so that the Son of God shall be glorified through it!"
Jesus answered, "Are [there] not twelve hours in the day? If anyone shall be walking about in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
"And every [one] living and believing [or, trusting] in Me shall by no means die into the age [fig., forever]! Do you believe this [or, Are you convinced of this]?"
Therefore, the Jews, the ones being with her in the house and comforting her, having seen Mary that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, "She is going off to the tomb so that she should weep there."
Then Jesus, when He saw her weeping, and the Jews having come with her weeping, was deeply moved in His spirit and stirred Himself up [or, was disturbed].
But some of them said, "This One, the One having open the eyes of the blind man, He was able to do [something] so that also this one should not have died, was He not?"
Jesus says, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the one having died, says to Him, "Lord, already he stinks, for it is the fourth day [since he died]."
Then they took away the stone from where the one having died was lying. And Jesus lifted His eyes upwards and said, "Father, I give thanks to You because You heard Me.
"Now,_I_ knew that You always hear Me,_but_ because of the crowd, the ones having stood around, I said [it], so that they shall believe [or, shall be convinced] that_You_ sent Me."
And the one having died came out, [his] feet and hands having been bound with grave-clothes, and his face had been wrapped around with a facecloth. Jesus says to them, "Loose him, and allow [him] to be going."
Therefore, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered together a High Council [or, Sanhedrin] and said, "What are we doing? For this Person is performing many signs!
nor do you* take into account that it is advantageous for us that one person should die on behalf of the people, and the whole nation should not perish."
Therefore, Jesus was no more freely walking about among the Jews,_but_ He went away from there to the countryside near the wilderness, to a city being called Ephraim. And there He stayed with His disciples.
So they were seeking Jesus and were speaking one with another, having stood in the temple, "What do you* think, that He shall not at all come to the feast?"
Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command that if anyone knew where He is, he should report [it], in order that they should seize Him.
