John 11:38–46

³⁸Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a ^ustone lay against it. ³⁹Jesus said, “Take away the stone.”

Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.”

⁴⁰Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would ^vsee the glory of God?” ⁴¹Then they took away the stone ⁴from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. ⁴²And I know that You always hear Me, but ^wbecause of the people who are standing by I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me.” ⁴³Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!” ⁴⁴And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with ^xgraveclothes, and ^yhis face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Loose him, and let him go.”

⁴⁵Then many of the Jews who had come to Mary, ^zand had seen the things Jesus did, believed in Him. ⁴⁶But some of them went away to the Pharisees and ^atold them the things Jesus did.
