Bible: John 11:37-44
Lazarus Raised from the Dead
11:38 Jesus, intensely moved 3 again, came to the tomb. (Now it was a cave, and a stone was placed across it.) 4 11:39 Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” 5 Martha, the sister of the deceased, 6 replied, “Lord, by this time the body will have a bad smell, 7 because he has been buried 8 four days.” 9 11:40 Jesus responded, 10 “Didn’t I tell you that if you believe, you would see the glory of God?” 11:41 So they took away 11 the stone. Jesus looked upward 12 and said, “Father, I thank you that you have listened to me. 13 11:42 I knew that you always listen to me, 14 but I said this 15 for the sake of the crowd standing around here, that they may believe that you sent me.” 11:43 When 16 he had said this, he shouted in a loud voice, 17 “Lazarus, come out!” 11:44 The one who had died came out, his feet and hands tied up with strips of cloth, 18 and a cloth wrapped around his face. 19 Jesus said to them, “Unwrap him 20 and let him go.”
