33 When Jesus saw her crying, and the Jews who had come with her crying, he was deeply moved* in his spiritu and troubled. 34 “Where have you put him?” he asked.

“Lord,” they told him, “come and see.”

35 Jesus wept.v

36 So the Jews said, “See how he lovedw him!” 37 But some of them said, “Couldn’t he who opened the blind man’s eyesx also have kept this man from dying?”

THE SEVENTH SIGN: RAISING LAZARUS FROM THE DEAD

38 Then Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was lying against it.y 39 “Remove the stone,” Jesus said.

Martha, the dead man’s sister, told him, “Lord, there is already a stench because he has been dead four days.”

40 Jesus said to her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believed you would see the gloryz of God?”aa

41 So they removed the stone. Then Jesus raised his eyes and said, “Father, I thankab you that you heard me.ac 42 I know that you always hear me, but because of the crowd standing here I said this, so that they may believe you sentad me.” 43 After he said this, he shouted with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!” 44 The dead man came out bound hand and foot with linen strips and with his face wrapped in a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Unwrap him and let him go.”
