John 11:28-37 - Jesus Weeps

²⁸ After she had said this, she left and called her sister Mary, privately whispering [to her], “The Teacher is here and is asking for you.”

²⁹ And when she heard this, she got up quickly and went to Him. ³⁰ Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met Him. ³¹ So when the Jews who were with her in the house comforting her, saw how quickly Mary got up and left, they followed her, assuming that she was going to the tomb to weep there.

³² When Mary came [to the place] 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.”

³³ When Jesus saw her sobbing, and the Jews who had come with her also sobbing, He was deeply moved in spirit [to the point of anger at the sorrow caused by death] and was troubled, ³⁴ and said, “Where have you laid him?” They said, “Lord, come and see.”

³⁵ Jesus wept.

³⁶ So the Jews were saying, “See how He loved him [as a close friend]!” ³⁷ But some of them said, “Could not this Man, who opened the blind man’s eyes, have kept this man from dying?”
