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?”
38. Jesus, intensely moved again, came to the tomb. (Now it was a cave, and a stone was placed across it.)
39. Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of the deceased, replied, “Lord, by this time the body will have a bad smell, because he has been buried four days.”
40. Jesus responded, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believe, you would see the glory of God?”
41. So they took away the stone. Jesus looked upward and said, “Father, I thank you that you have listened to me.
42. I knew that you always listen to me, but I said this for the sake of the crowd standing around here, that they may believe that you sent me.”
43. When he had said this, he shouted in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”
44. The one who had died came out, his feet and hands tied up with strips of cloth, and a cloth wrapped around his face. Jesus said to them, “Unwrap him and let him go.”
45. Then many of the people, who had come with Mary and had seen the things Jesus did, believed in him.
