John 11:13-23

13 Now ¹Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that He was speaking of literal sleep.

14 So Jesus then said to them plainly, "Lazarus is dead,

15 and I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe; but let us go to him."

16 ²Therefore Thomas, who is called ³Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, "Let us also go, so that we may die with Him."

17 So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb ⁴four days.

18 Now ⁵Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles off;

19 and many of ⁶the Jews had come to ⁷Martha and Mary, ⁸to console them concerning their brother.

20 ⁹Martha therefore, when she heard that Jesus was coming, went to meet Him, but ¹⁰Mary stayed at the house.

21 Martha then said to Jesus, "¹¹Lord, ¹²if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

22 "Even now I know that ¹³whatever * You ask of God, God will give You."

23 Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."
