Then Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb; it was a cave, and a stone lay upon it. 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." Jesus said to her, "Did I not tell you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?" So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, "Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. I knew that thou hearest me always, but I have said this on account of the people standing by, that they may believe that thou didst send me." When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, "Laz'arus, come out." The dead man came out, his hands and feet bound with bandages, and his face wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go." en Pericope.223 Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead 1.2 2004-11-28 National Council of Churches Revised Standard Version Sean Boisen SemanticBible.org application/rdf+xml Scripture verses taken from the Holy Bible: Revised Standard Version, copyright 1946, 1952, 1973 by the National Council of Churches of Christ.
