John 11:17-37

New International Reader's Version NIRV

17 When Jesus arrived, he found out that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days.

18 Bethany was less than two miles from Jerusalem.

19 Many Jews had come to Martha and Mary. They had come to comfort them because their brother was dead.

20 When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him. But Mary stayed at home.

21 "Lord," Martha said to Jesus, "I wish you had been here! Then my brother would not have died.

22 But I know that even now God will give you anything you ask for."

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

24 Martha answered, "I know he will rise again. This will happen when people are raised from the dead on the last day."

25 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in me will live, even if he dies.

26 And those who live and believe in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

27 "Yes, Lord," she told him. "I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God. I believe that you are the One who was supposed to come into the world."

28 After she said this, she went back home. She called her sister Mary to one side to talk to her. "The Teacher is here," Martha said. "He is asking for you."

29 When Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to him.

30 Jesus had not yet entered the village. He was still at the place where Martha had met him.

31 Some Jews had been comforting Mary in the house. They noticed how quickly she got up and went out. So they followed her. They thought she was going to the tomb to cry there.

32 Mary reached the place where Jesus was. When she saw him, she fell at his feet. She said, "Lord, I wish you had been here! Then my brother would not have died."

33 Jesus saw her crying. He saw that the Jews who had come along with her were crying also. His spirit became very sad, and he was troubled.

34 "Where have you put him?" he asked. "Come and see, Lord," they replied.

35 Jesus sobbed.

36 Then the Jews said, "See how much he loved him!"

37 But some of them said, "He opened the eyes of the blind man. Couldn't he have kept this man from dying?"

New International Version NIV

17 On his arrival, Jesus found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days.

18 Now Bethany was less than two miles from Jerusalem,

19 and many Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them in the loss of their brother.

20 When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet him, but Mary stayed at home.

21 “Lord,” Martha said to Jesus, “if you had been here, my brother would not have died.

22 But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask.”

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

24 Martha answered, “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”

25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die;

26 and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?”

27 “Yes, Lord,” she replied, “I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.”

28 After she had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside. “The Teacher is here,” she said, “and is asking for you.”

29 When Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to him.

30 Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met him.

31 When the Jews who had been with Mary in the house, comforting her, noticed how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there.

32 When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”

33 When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.

34 “Where have you laid him?” he asked. “Come and see, Lord,” they replied.

35 Jesus wept.

36 Then the Jews said, “See how he loved him!”

37 But some of them said, “Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?”
