Martha

Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.
But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:
But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.   Luke 10:38-42 

Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.   John 11:1 

Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.   John 11:5 

And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.
Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house.
Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.   John 11:19-21 

Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.   John 11:24 

Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.   John 11:30 

Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.   John 11:39 

There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.   John 12:2
