17. When Jesus arrived, He found that he had been in the tomb four days already.
18. Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, less than two miles away.
19. Many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.
20. When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met Him, but Mary remained in the house.
21. Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.
22. But even now I know that whatever You may ask of God, God will give You.”
23. Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”
24. Martha said to Him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.”
25. Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, yet shall he live.
26. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?”
