John 11:38-44 - Lazarus Is Raised

38 Again repressing a groan, Jesus went to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid against the mouth of it. 39 Jesus said, "Move the stone away." The dead man's sister, Martha, said to him, "Master, by this time he is decaying, for he has been dead four days."

40 Jesus said to her, "Have I not promised you that if you will believe in me you will see the glory of God?"

41 So they moved the stone away. And Jesus looked upward and said, "Father, I thank you for listening to me, 42 though I knew that you always listen to me. But I have said this for the sake of the people that are standing around me that they may believe that you have made me your messenger." 43 After saying this he called out in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" 44 The dead man came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and with his face muffled with a handkerchief. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him and let him move."
