John 11:38-44
Holman Christian Standard Bible
The Seventh Sign: Raising Lazarus from the Dead
38 Then Jesus, angry[a] in Himself again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was lying against it.(A) 39 “Remove the stone,” Jesus said.
Martha, the dead man’s sister, told Him, “Lord, he’s already decaying.[b] It’s been four days.”
40 Jesus said to her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believed you would see the glory(B) of God?”(C)
41 So they removed the stone. Then Jesus raised His eyes and said, “Father, I thank(D) You that You heard Me.(E) 42 I know that You always hear Me, but because of the crowd standing here I said this, so they may believe You sent(F) Me.” 43 After He said this, He shouted with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!” 44 The dead man came out bound hand and foot with linen strips and with his face wrapped in a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Loose him and let him go.”
