21. Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.
22. But I know that even now God will give you anything you ask.”
23. Jesus said, “Your brother will rise and live again.”
24. Martha answered, “I know that he will rise and live again in the resurrection on the last day.”
25. Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will have life even if he dies.
26. And he who lives and believes in me will never die. Martha, do you believe this?”
27. Martha answered, “Yes, Lord. I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God. You are the One who was coming to the world.”
28. After Martha said this, she went back to her sister Mary. She talked to Mary alone. Martha said, “The Teacher is here and he is asking for you.”
29. When Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to Jesus.
30. Jesus had not yet come into the town. He was still at the place where Martha had met him.
