Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat
still
in the
house.
21
Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
22
But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give
it
thee.
23

unto her,
Thy brother shall rise again.
24

the resurrection at the last day.

believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

me shall never die. Believest thou this?
