to meet him; but Mary
sat in the house. [11:21]Then Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if you had
been here, my brother would not have died; [11:22]but now also I know
that whatever you ask of God, God will give you. [11:23]Jesus said to
her, Your brother shall rise again. [11:24]Martha said to him, I know
that he will rise at the resurrection at the last day. [11:25]Jesus
said to her, I am the resurrection and the life; he that believes in
me, even if he has died, shall live, [11:26]and no one who lives and
believes in me shall ever die; do you believe this? [11:27]She said to
him, Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who
comes into the world.
4 [11:28]And having said this she went away and called Mary her sister,
privately, saying, The teacher has come and calls for you. [11:29]When
she heard, she arose quickly and came to him; [11:30]but Jesus had not
yet entered into the village, but was at the place where Martha met
him. [11:31]Then the Jews who were with her in the house and consoling
her, seeing Mary that she arose and went out quickly, followed her,
saying, She goes to the tomb to weep there. [11:32]Then Mary, when she

said, Where have you laid him? They said to him, Lord, come and see.
[11:35]Jesus wept. [11:36]Then the Jews said, Behold, how he loved him.
[11:37]And some of them said, Could not this man who opens the eyes of
the blind, cause that even he should not have died? [11:38]Then Jesus
again being agitated within himself came to the tomb; it was a cave,
and a stone lay upon it. [11:39]Jesus said, Take away the stone.
Martha, the sister of the dead, said to him, Lord, by this time he
smells; for he has been dead four days. [11:40]Jesus said to her, Did I
not tell you that if you will believe you shall see the glory of God?
[11:41] Then they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted his eyes above,
and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me; [11:42]and I
knew that thou hearest me always; but for the sake of the multitude who
stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
[11:43]And having said these things, he cried with a loud voice,
