John 11:13

King James 3 - The Literal Traslation

But Jesus had spoken about his death, but they thought that He spoke of the resting of sleep .

See the chapter Copy

He says to them, Go back, for the little girl has not died, but she sleeps. And they ridiculed Him.

And all were weeping and bewailing her. But He said, Do not weep. She has not died, but is sleeping.

He said these things. And after this, He said to them, Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going that I may awaken him.

Then His disciples said, Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.

Therefore, then Jesus said to them plainly, Lazarus has died.
