11:38

Jesus, once more deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance.

11:39

"Take away the stone," he said. "But, Lord," said Martha, the sister of the dead man, "by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been there four days."

11:40

Then Jesus said, "Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?"

11:41

So they took away the stone. Then Jesus looked up and said, "Father, I thank you that you have heard me.

11:42

I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me."

11:43

When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!"

11:44

The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, "Take off the grave clothes and let him go."

11:45

Therefore many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, put their faith in him.
