John 11:7-15

Then He said to His disciples,
"Let us go back to Judea."
"But Rabbi," they said,
"a short while ago the Jews tried to stone You,
and yet You are going back there?"
Jesus answered,
"Are there not twelve hours of daylight?
A man who walks by day will not stumble,
for he sees by this world's light.
It is when he walks by night,
that he stumbles, for he has no light."
After He had said this, He went on to tell them,
"Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep;
but I am going there to wake him up."
His disciples replied,
"Lord, if he sleeps, he will get better"
Jesus had been speaking of His death,
but His disciples thought He meant natural sleep.
So then He told them plainly,
"Lazarus is dead,
and for your sake I am glad I was not there,
so that you may believe.
But let us go to him."
(John 11:7-15)
