John 11:18-27

18Now 1Bethany was near Jerusalem, about 2fifteen stadia away; 19and many of 3the Jews had come to 4Martha and Mary, 5to console them about their brother. 20So then 6Martha, when she heard that Jesus was coming, went to meet Him, but 7Mary 8stayed in the house. 21Martha then said to Jesus, “9Lord, 10if You had been here, my brother would not have died. 22Even now I know that 11whatever You ask of God, God will give You.” 23Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise from the dead.” 24Martha said to Him, “12I know that he will rise in the resurrection on the last day.” 25Jesus said to her, “13I am the resurrection and the life; the one who believes in Me will live, even if he dies, 26and everyone who lives and believes in Me 14will never die. Do you believe this?” 27She said to Him, “Yes, Lord; I have come to believe that You are 15the 16Christ, the Son of God, and 17 18He who comes into the world.”
