John 11:32-44 GNB . . .Mary arrived where Jesus was, and as soon as she saw him, she fell at his feet. "Lord," she said, "if you had been here, my brother would not have died!" (33) Jesus saw her weeping, and he saw how the people with her were weeping also; his heart was touched, and he was deeply moved. (34) "Where have you buried him?" he asked them. "Come and see, Lord," they answered. (35) Jesus wept. (36) "See how much he loved him!" the people said. (37) But some of them said, "He gave sight to the blind man, didn't he? Could he not have kept Lazarus from dying?" (38) Deeply moved once more, Jesus went to the tomb, which was a cave with a stone placed at the entrance. (39) "Take the stone away!" Jesus ordered. Martha, the dead man's sister, answered, "There will be a bad smell, Lord. He has been buried four days!" (40) Jesus said to her, "Didn't I tell you that you would see God's glory if you believed?" (41) They took the stone away. Jesus looked up and said, "I thank you, Father, that you listen to me. (42) I know that you always listen to me, but I say this for the sake of the people here, so that they will believe that you sent me." (43) After he had said this, he called out in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" (44) He came out, his hands and feet wrapped in grave cloths, and with a cloth around his face. "Untie him," Jesus told them, "and let him go."

John 11:32-44 ESV . . .Now when Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying to him, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."

They said to him, "Lord, come and see." (35) Jesus wept. (36) So the Jews said, "See how he loved him!" (37) But some of them said, "Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man also have kept this man from dying?" (38) Then Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it. (39) Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Lord, by this time there will be an odor, for he has been dead four days." (40) Jesus said to her, "Did I not tell you that if you believed you would see the glory of God?" (41) So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, "Father, I thank you that you have heard me. (42) I knew that you always hear me, but I said this on account of the people standing around, that they may believe that you sent me." (43) When he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out." (44) The man who had died came out, his hands and feet bound with linen strips, and his face wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go."

(35) Jesus cried. (36) The Jews said, "See how much Jesus loved him." (37) But some of the Jews asked, "Couldn't this man who gave a blind man sight keep Lazarus from dying?" (38) Deeply moved again, Jesus went to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone covering the entrance. (39) Jesus said, "Take the stone away." Martha, the dead man's sister, told Jesus, "Lord, there must already be a stench. He's been dead for four days." (40) Jesus said to her, "Didn't I tell you that if you believe, you would see God's glory?" (41) So the stone was moved away from the entrance of the tomb. Jesus looked up and said, "Father, I thank you for hearing me. (42) I've known that you always hear me. However, I've said this so that the crowd standing around me will believe that you sent me." (43) After Jesus had said this, he shouted as loudly as he could, "Lazarus, come out!" (44) The dead man came out. Strips of cloth were wound around his feet and hands, and his face was wrapped with a handkerchief. Jesus told them, "Free Lazarus, and let him go."

(37) But some of them said, Was this One, the One opening the eyes of the blind, not able to have caused that this one should not die? (38) Then groaning again within Himself, Jesus came to the tomb. And it was a cave, and a stone was lying on it. (39) Jesus said, Lift the stone. Martha, the sister of the one that had died, said to Him, Lord, he already smells, for it is the fourth day. (40) Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you would believe you will see the glory of God? (41) Then they lifted the stone where the dead one was laid. And Jesus lifted His eyes upward and said, Father, I thank You that You heard Me. (42) And I know that You always hear Me, but because of the crowd standing around, I said it, that they might believe that You sent Me. (43) And saying these things, He cried out with a loud voice, Lazarus! Here! Outside! (44) And the one who had died came out, the feet and the hands having been bound with sheets, and his face being bound with a cloth. Jesus said to them, Loosen him and allow him to go.
