John 11:12

Easy To Read Version

The followers answered, “But Lord, if he can sleep, he will be well.”

See the chapter Copy

Jesus said, “Go away. The girl is not dead. She is only asleep.” But the people laughed at Jesus.

After Jesus said these things, he said, “Our friend Lazarus is now sleeping. But I am going there to wake him.”

Jesus meant that Lazarus was dead. But Jesus’ followers thought Jesus meant that Lazarus was really sleeping.
