36
So the Jews said, See how dear he was to him!
37
But some of them said, This man, who made open the eyes of the blind man, was he not able to keep his friend from death?
38
So Jesus, deeply troubled in heart, came to the place of the dead. It was a hole in the rock, and a stone was over the opening.
39
Jesus said, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said, Lord, by this time the body will be smelling, for he has been dead four days.
40
Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you had faith you would see the glory of God?
41
So they took away the stone. And Jesus, looking up to heaven, said, Father, I give praise to you for hearing me.
42
I was certain that your ears are at all times open to me, but I said it because of these who are here, so that they may see that you sent me.
43
Then he said in a loud voice, Lazarus, come out!
44
And he who was dead came out, with linen bands folded tightly about his hands and feet, and a cloth about his face. Jesus said to them, Make him free and let him go.
45
Then a number of the Jews who had come to Mary and had seen the things which Jesus did had belief in him.
46
But some of them went to the Pharisees with the news of what Jesus had done.
