8. The disciples say to him: Rabbi, the Jews but now sought to stone thee: and goest thou thither again?
9. Jesus answered: Are there not twelve hours of the day? If a man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world:
10. But if he walk in the night, he stumbleth, because the light is not in him.
11. These things he said; and after that he said to them: Lazarus our friend sleepeth; but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.
12. His disciples therefore said: Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.
13. But Jesus spoke of his death; and they thought that he spoke of the repose of sleep.
14. Then therefore Jesus said to them plainly: Lazarus is dead.
15. And I am glad, for your sakes, that I was not there, that you may believe: but let us go to him.
16. Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples: Let us also go, that we may die with him.
17. Jesus therefore came, and found that he had been four days already in the grave.
