Iesus loved Martha and her sister, and Lazarus.
¶ It fortuned as they went, that he entered into a certain town. And a certain woman named Martha, received him into her house.
Martha was cumbered about much serving, and stood and said: Master, dost thou not care, that my sister hath left me to minister alone? Bid her therefore, that she help me.
And Iesus answered, and said unto her: Martha, Martha, thou art busied, and troublest thyself, about many things:
¶ A certain man was sick, named Lazarus of Bethania the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
and his sister sent unto him saying: Lord behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.
Then said the jewes: Behold how he loved him.
After he heard that he was sick, then abode he two days still in the same place where he was.
His disciples said unto him: Master, the jewes lately sought means to stone thee, and wilt thou go thither again?
For my father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.
And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it, that the love wherewith thou hast loved me, be in them, and that I be in them.
