John 11:17-27
Christian Standard Bible
The Resurrection and the Life
17 When Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb(A) four days. 18 Bethany was near Jerusalem(B) (less than two miles[a] away). 19 Many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother.
20 As soon as Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him, but Mary remained seated in the house. 21 Then Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother wouldn’t have died. 22 Yet even now I know that whatever you ask from God, God will give you.”
23 “Your brother will rise(C) again,” Jesus told her.
24 Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”(D)
25 Jesus said to her, “I am(E) the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me,(F) even if he dies, will live.(G) 26 Everyone who lives and believes in me will never die.(H) Do you believe this?”
27 “Yes, Lord,” she told him, “I believe you are the Messiah,(I) the Son(J) of God, who comes into the world.”(K)
