St John 11:29-39 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

29. She, as soon as she heard this, riseth quickly, and cometh to him.

30. For Jesus was not yet come into the town: but he was still in that place where Martha had met him.

31. The Jews therefore, who were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary that she rose up speedily and went out, followed her, saying: She goeth to the grave to weep there.

32. When Mary therefore was come where Jesus was, seeing him, she fell down at his feet, and saith to him: Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

33. Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping, and the Jews that were come with her, weeping, groaned in the spirit, and troubled himself,

34. And said: Where have you laid him? They say to him: Lord, come and see.

35. And Jesus wept.

36. The Jews therefore said: Behold how he loved him.

37. But some of them said: Could not he that opened the eyes of the man born blind, have caused that this man should not die?

38. Jesus therefore again groaning in himself, cometh to the sepulchre. Now it was a cave; and a stone was laid over it.

39. Jesus saith: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him: Lord, by this time he stinketh, for he is now of four days.
