John 11:38-44
New Matthew Bible
38 Jesus again groaned in himself, and came to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it. 39 And Jesus said, Take away the stone.
Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to him, Lord, by this time he will smell, for he has been dead four days. 40 Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?
41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, Father, I thank you, because you have heard me. 42 I know that you hear me always. But because of the people that stand by, I said this – so that they may believe that you have sent me.
43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth! 44 And he that was dead came forth wrapped hand and foot with grave bonds, and his face was bound about with a headcloth.
Jesus said to them, Loose him and let him go.
