A Widow’s Son Raised to Life
11 Afterward he was on his way to a town called Nain. His disciples and a large crowd were traveling with him. 12 Just as he neared the gate of the town, a dead man was being carried out. He was his mother’s only son, and she was a widow.(A) A large crowd from the town was also with her. 13 When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her(B) and said, “Don’t weep.” 14 Then he came up and touched the open coffin, and the pallbearers stopped. And he said, “Young man, I tell you, get up!”(C)
15 The dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him to his mother.(D) 16 Then fear[a] came over everyone,(E) and they glorified God,(F) saying, “A great prophet has risen among us,”(G) and “God has visited[b] his people.”(H) 17 This report about him went throughout Judea and all the vicinity.

Jesus Raises the Widow’s Son at Nain
11 Soon afterward[a] he went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went with him.(A) 12 As he approached the gate of the town, a man who had died was being carried out. He was his mother’s only son, and she was a widow, and with her was a large crowd from the town. 13 When the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her and said to her, “Do not cry.”(B) 14 Then he came forward and touched the bier, and the bearers stopped. And he said, “Young man, I say to you, rise!”(C) 15 The dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus[b] gave him to his mother. 16 Fear seized all of them, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has risen among us!” and “God has visited his people!”(D) 17 This word about him spread throughout the whole of Judea and all the surrounding region.
