and is calling you."
011:029 When she heard this, she arose quickly, and went to him.
011:030 Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was in the place
where Martha met him.
011:031 Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and were consoling her,
when they saw Mary, that she rose up quickly and went out,
followed her, saying, "She is going to the tomb to weep there."
011:032 Therefore when Mary came to where Jesus was, and saw him,
she fell down at his feet, saying to him, "Lord, if you would
have been here, my brother wouldn't have died."
011:033 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping
who came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,
011:034 and said, "Where have you laid him?" They told him, "Lord,
come and see."
011:035 Jesus wept.
011:036 The Jews therefore said, "See how much affection he had for him!"
011:037 Some of them said, "Couldn't this man, who opened the eyes
of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?"
011:038 Jesus therefore, again groaning in himself, came to the tomb.
Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
011:039 Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of him
who was dead, said to him, "Lord, by this time there is a stench,
for he has been dead four days."
011:040 Jesus said to her, "Didn't I tell you that if you believed,
you would see God's glory?"
011:041 So they took away the stone from the place where the dead man
was lying.{NU omits "from the place where the dead man was
lying."} Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, "Father, I thank
you that you listened to me.
011:042 I know that you always listen to me, but because of the multitude
that stands around I said this, that they may believe that
you sent me."
011:043 When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice,
"Lazarus, come out!"
011:044 He who was dead came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings,
and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus said
to them, "Free him, and let him go."
011:045 Therefore many of the Jews, who came to Mary and saw what Jesus did,
believed in him.
011:046 But some of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them
the things which Jesus had done.
011:047 The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council,
and said, "What are we doing? For this man does many signs.
011:048 If we leave him alone like this, everyone will believe in him,
and the Romans will come and take away both our place
and our nation."
011:049 But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year,
said to them, "You know nothing at all,
011:050 nor do you consider that it is advantageous for us that one man
should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish."
