John 11:19-40

19and many of the Judeans had come to Martha and Miriam to console them about their brother.

20When Martha heard that Yeshua was coming, she went out to meet Him; but Miriam sat in the house.

21Martha said to Yeshua, “Master, if You had been here, my brother wouldn’t have died!

22But I know, even now, that whatever You may ask of God, He will give You.”

23Yeshua said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”

24Martha said to Him, “I know, he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.”

25Yeshua said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life! Whoever believes in Me, even if he dies, shall live.

26And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”

27She says to Him, “Yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Messiah, Ben-Elohim who has come into the world.”

28After she said this, she left and secretly told her sister Miriam, “The Teacher is here, and He’s calling for you.”

29As soon as Miriam heard, she quickly got up and was coming to Him.

30Now Yeshua had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha had met Him.

31The Judeans, who were with Miriam in the house and comforting her, seeing how quickly she got up and went out, followed her. They thought she was going to the tomb to weep there.

32So when Miriam came to where Yeshua was, she saw Him and fell at His feet, saying to Him, “Master, if You had been here, my brother would not have died!”

33When Yeshua saw her weeping, and the Judeans who came with her weeping, He was deeply troubled in spirit and Himself agitated.

34“Where have you laid him?” He asked. “Come and see, Master,” they tell Him.

35Yeshua wept.

36So the Judeans said, “See how He loved him!”

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

38So Yeshua, again deeply troubled within Himself, comes to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was lying against it.

39Yeshua says, “Roll away the stone!” Martha, the dead man’s sister, said to Him, “Master, by this time he stinks! He’s been dead for four days!”

40Yeshua says to her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?”
