John 11:30-42 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

30. Jesus had not yet come into the village but was still in the place where Martha had met Him.

31. The Jews who were with her in the house consoling her saw that Mary got up quickly and went out. So they followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to cry there.

32. When Mary came to where Jesus was and saw Him, she fell at His feet and told Him, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died! ”

33. When Jesus saw her crying, and the Jews who had come with her crying, He was angry in His spirit and deeply moved.

34. “Where have you put him? ” He asked.“Lord,” they told Him, “come and see.”

35. Jesus wept.

36. So the Jews said, “See how He loved him! ”

37. But some of them said, “Couldn’t He who opened the blind man’s eyes also have kept this man from dying? ”

38. Then Jesus, angry in Himself again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was lying against it.

39. “Remove the stone,” Jesus said.Martha, the dead man’s sister, told Him, “Lord, he’s already decaying. It’s been four days.”

40. Jesus said to her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believed you would see the glory of God? ”

41. So they removed the stone. Then Jesus raised His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You heard Me.

42. I know that You always hear Me, but because of the crowd standing here I said this, so they may believe You sent Me.”
