John 11:15-25

15 And I am glad for your sakes I was not there so that you may believe. But let's go to him now."

16 Then Thomas (the one called Didymus) said to the other followers, "Let us also go so that we can die with him."

17 When Jesus arrived, he learned that Lazarus had already been dead and in the tomb for four days.

18 Bethany was about two miles from Jerusalem.

19 Many of the Jews had come there to comfort Martha and Mary about their brother.

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

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

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

23 Jesus said, "Your brother will rise and live again."

24 Martha answered, "I know that he will rise and live again in the resurrectionn on the last day."

25 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me will have life even if they die.
