John 11:28-38

28Having said this, she went back and called her sister Mary, saying in private, “The Teacher is here and is calling for you.”

29As soon as Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to him.

30Jesus had not yet come into the village but was still in the place where Martha had met him.

31The Jews who were with her in the house consoling her saw that Mary got up quickly and went out. They followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to cry there.

32As soon as Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and told him, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother wouldn’t have died!”

33When Jesus saw her crying, and the Jews who had come with her crying, he was deeply moved in his spirit and troubled.

34“Where have you put him?” he asked. “Lord,” they told him, “come and see.”

35Jesus wept.

36So the Jews said, “See how he loved him!”

37But some of them said, “Couldn’t he who opened the blind man’s eyes also have kept this man from dying?”

38Then Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was lying against it.
