*
Groaning deeply again ,
Jesus came to the tomb .
It was a cave ,
and a stone was lying against it .
*
Jesus said ,“
Remove the stone .”
Martha ,
the dead man '
s sister ,
told him , “
Lord ,
there must be a stench by now ,
because he '
s been dead for four days .”
*
Jesus said to her ,“
I told you that if you believed you would see God '
s glory ,
didn '
t I ?”
*
So they removed the stone .
Then Jesus looked upward and said ,“
Father ,
I thank you for hearing me .
*
I know that you always hear me ,
but I have said this for the sake of the crowd standing here ,
so that they may believe that you sent me .”
*
After saying this ,
he shouted with a loud voice ,“
Lazarus ,
come out !”
*
The dead man came out ,
his hands and feet tied with strips of cloth ,
and his face wrapped in a handkerchief .
Jesus told them ,“
Untie him ,
and let him go .”
