John 11:28-37 New English Translation (NET)

28. And when she had said this, Martha went and called her sister Mary, saying privately, “The Teacher is here and is asking for you.”

29. So when Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to him.

30. (Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still in the place where Martha had come out to meet him.)

31. Then the people who were with Mary in the house consoling her saw her get up quickly and go out. They followed her, because they thought she was going to the tomb to weep there.

32. Now when Mary came to the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said to him, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”

33. When Jesus saw her weeping, and the people who had come with her weeping, he was intensely moved in spirit and greatly distressed.

34. He asked, “Where have you laid him?” They replied, “Lord, come and see.”

35. Jesus wept.

36. Thus the people who had come to mourn said, “Look how much he loved him!”

37. But some of them said, “This is the man who caused the blind man to see! Couldn’t he have done something to keep Lazarus from dying?”
