John 11:18-46

18NowG1161 1BethanyG963 was nearG1451 JerusalemG2414, aboutG5613 2fifteenG1178 stadiaG4712 awayG575; 19and manyG4183 of 3the JewsG2453 had comeG2064 to 4MarthaG3136 and MaryG3137, 5to consoleG3888 them aboutG4012 their brotherG80. 20SoG3767 thenG3767 6MarthaG3136, whenG5613 she heardG191 that JesusG2424 was comingG2064, wentG5221 toG5221 meetG5221 Him, but 7MaryG3137 8stayedG2516 in the houseG3624. 21MarthaG3136 thenG3767 saidG3004 to JesusG2424, “9LordG2962, 10ifG1487 You had beenG1510 hereG5602, my brotherG80 would not have diedG599. 22EvenG2532 nowG3568 I knowG3609 that 11whateverG3745G302 You askG154 of GodG2316, GodG2316 will giveG1325 You.” 23JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “Your brotherG80 will riseG450 from the dead.” 24MarthaG3136 saidG3004 to Him, “12I knowG3609 that he will riseG450 in the resurrectionG386 on the lastG2078 dayG2250.” 25JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “13I amG1510 the resurrectionG386 and the lifeG2222; the one who believesG4100 in Me will liveG2198, evenG2579 ifG2579 he diesG599, 26and everyoneG3956 who livesG2198 and believesG4100 in Me 14will neverG3756G3361G1519G165 dieG599. Do you believeG4100 thisG3778?” 27She saidG3004 to Him, “YesG3483, LordG2962; I have come to believeG4100 that You are 15the 16ChristG5547, the SonG5207 of GodG2316, and 1718He who comesG2064 into the worldG2889.”

28When she had saidG3004 thisG3778, she 19leftG565 and calledG5455 MaryG3137 her sisterG79, sayingG3004 secretlyG2977, “20The TeacherG1320 is hereG3918 and is callingG5455 for you.” 29And whenG5613 she heardG191 this, she gotG1453 upG1453 quicklyG5035 and cameG2064 to Him.

30NowG1161 JesusG2424 had not yetG3768 comeG2064 into the villageG2968, but 21was stillG2089 at the placeG5117 whereG3699 MarthaG3136 metG5221 Him. 3122ThenG3767 the JewsG2453 who were with her in the houseG3614 and were 23consolingG3888 her, when they sawG3708 that MaryG3137 had gottenG450 upG450 quicklyG5030 and leftG1831, they followedG190 her, thinkingG1380 that she was goingG5217 to the tombG3419 to weepG2799 thereG1563. 32SoG3767 whenG5613 MaryG3137 cameG2064 to the place whereG3699 JesusG2424 was, she sawG3708 Him and fellG4098 at His feetG4228, sayingG3004 to Him, “24LordG2962, 25ifG1487 You had beenG1510 hereG5602, my brotherG80 would not have diedG599.” 33ThereforeG3767 whenG5613 JesusG2424 sawG3708 her weepingG2799, and 26the JewsG2453 who cameG4905 with her also weepingG2799, He 27was deeplyG1690 movedG1690 in spiritG4151 and 2829was troubledG5015, 34and He saidG3004, “WhereG4226 have you laidG5087 him?” They saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, comeG2064 and seeG3708.” 35JesusG2424 30weptG1145. 36SoG3767 31the JewsG2453 were sayingG3004, “SeeG2396 howG4459 He 32lovedG5368 him!” 37But someG5100 of them saidG3004, “CouldG1410 thisG3778 ManG3778, who 33openedG455 the eyesG3788 of the manG5185 whoG5185 wasG5185 blindG5185, not haveG4160 alsoG2532 34keptG4160 thisG3778 manG3778 from dyingG599?”

38SoG3767 JesusG2424, againG3825 being deeplyG1690 movedG1690 withinG1722G1438, cameG2064 to the tombG3419. NowG1161 it was a 35caveG4693, and a stoneG3037 was lyingG1945 againstG1909 it. 39JesusG2424 saidG3004, “RemoveG142 the stoneG3037.” MarthaG3136, the sisterG79 of the deceasedG5053, saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, byG2235 thisG2235 timeG2235 36there will be a stenchG3605, for he has beenG1510 dead 37fourG5066 daysG5066.” 40JesusG2424 saidG3004 to her, “38Did I not sayG3004 to you that ifG1437 you believeG4100, you will seeG3708 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316?” 41SoG3767 they removedG142 the 39stoneG3037. And JesusG2424 40raisedG142G507 His eyesG3788, and saidG3004, “41FatherG3962, I thankG2168 You that You have heardG191 Me. 42But I knewG3609 that You alwaysG3842 hearG191 Me; neverthelessG235, 42becauseG1223 of the 43peopleG3793 standingG4026 aroundG4026 I saidG3004 it, soG2443 thatG2443 they may believeG4100 that 44You sentG649 Me.” 43And when He had saidG3004 theseG3778 thingsG3778, He criedG2905 outG2905 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, “LazarusG2976, comeG1204 outG1854!” 44OutG1831 cameG1831 the manG2348 who had diedG2348, 45boundG1210 handG5495 and footG4228 with wrappingsG2750, and 46his faceG3799 was wrappedG4019 aroundG4019 with a clothG4676. JesusG2424 saidG3004 to them, “UnbindG3089 him, and letG863 him goG5217.”

4547ThereforeG3767 manyG4183 of the JewsG2453 48who cameG2064 to MaryG3137, and 49sawG2300 whatG3739 He had doneG4160, believedG4100 in Him. 46But someG5100 of them wentG565 to the 50PhariseesG5330 and toldG3004 them the things whichG3739 JesusG2424 had doneG4160.
