John 11:28–37

Jesus Weeps

²⁸And when she^* had said this, she went and called her sister Mary privately, saying, “The Teacher is here and is calling for you.” ²⁹So that one, when she heard it,^* got up quickly and went to him. ³⁰(Now Jesus has not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha went to meet him.) ³¹So the Jews who were with her in the house and were consoling her, when they^* saw Mary—that she stood up quickly and went out—followed her, because they^* thought that she was going to the tomb in order to weep there.

³²Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was and^* saw him, fell at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” ³³Then Jesus, when he saw her weeping and the Jews who came with her weeping, was deeply moved in spirit and was troubled within himself. ³⁴And he said, “Where have you laid him?” They said to him, “Lord, come and see.” ³⁵Jesus wept. ³⁶So the Jews were saying, “See how he loved him!” ³⁷But some of them said, “Was not this man who opened the eyes of the blind able to do something^* so that this man also would not have died?”
