18. Bethany was only a few miles down the road from Jerusalem,
19. and many of the people had come to console Martha and Mary in their loss.
20. When Martha got word that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him. But Mary stayed in the house.
21. Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died.
22. But even now I know that God will give you whatever you ask.”
23. Jesus told her, “Your brother will rise again.”
