John 11:21-32

English Standard Version

²¹ Martha said to ^(A)Jesus, “Lord, ^(B)if you had been here, my brother would not have died. ²² But even now I know that whatever you ask from God, ^(C)God will give you.” ²³ Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.” ^24 (D)Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in ^(E)the resurrection on the last day.” ²⁵ Jesus said to her, ^(F)“I am the resurrection and ^(G)the life.^[a] Whoever believes in me, ^(H)though he die, ^(I)yet shall he live, ²⁶ and everyone who lives and believes in me ^(J)shall never die. Do you believe this?” ²⁷ She said to him, “Yes, Lord; ^(K)I believe that ^(L)you are the Christ, the Son of God, ^(M)who is coming into the world.”

Jesus Weeps

²⁸ When she had said this, she went and called her sister Mary, saying in private, ^(N)“The Teacher is here and is calling for you.” ²⁹ And when she heard it, she rose quickly and went to him. ³⁰ Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha had met him. ³¹ When the Jews ^(O)who were with her in the house, consoling her, saw Mary rise quickly and go out, they followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there. ³² Now when Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying to him, ^(P)“Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”
