37But some of them said, This man, who made open the eyes of the blind man, was he not able to keep his friend from death?
38So Jesus, deeply troubled in heart, came to the place of the dead. It was a hole in the rock, and a stone was over the opening.
39Jesus said, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said, Lord, by this time the body will be smelling, for he has been dead four days.
40Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you had faith you would see the glory of God?
41So they took away the stone. And Jesus, looking up to heaven, said, Father, I give praise to you for hearing me.
42I was certain that your ears are at all times open to me, but I said it because of these who are here, so that they may see that you sent me.
43Then he said in a loud voice, Lazarus, come out!
