³²When Mary therefore was come where Jesus was, seeing him, she fell down at his feet and saith to him. Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

³³Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews that were come with her weeping, groaned in the spirit and troubled himself,

³⁴And said: Where have you laid him? They say to him: Lord, come and see.

³⁵And Jesus wept.

³⁶The Jews therefore said: Behold how he loved him.

³⁷But some of them said: Could not he that opened the eyes of the man born blind have caused that this man should not die?

³⁸Jesus therefore again groaning in himself, cometh to the sepulchre. Now it was a cave; and a stone was laid over it.

³⁹Jesus saith: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him: Lord, by this time he stinketh, for he is now of four days.

⁴⁰Jesus saith to her: Did not I say to thee that if thou believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?

⁴¹They took therefore the stone away. And Jesus lifting up his eyes, said: Father, I give thee thanks that thou hast heard me.

⁴²And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people who stand about have I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.

⁴³When he had said these things, he cried with a loud voice: Lazarus, come forth.

⁴⁴And presently he that had been dead came forth, bound feet and hands with winding bands. And his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus said to them: Loose him and let him go.
