Gospel, John 11:19-27

¹⁹ and many Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother.

²⁰ When Martha heard that Jesus was coming she went to meet him. Mary remained sitting 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 God will grant whatever you ask of him.'

²³ Jesus said to her, 'Your brother will rise again.'

²⁴ Martha said, 'I know he will rise again at the resurrection on the last day.'

²⁵ Jesus said: I am the resurrection. Anyone who believes in me, even though that person dies, will live,

²⁶ and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?

²⁷ 'Yes, Lord,' she said, 'I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, the one who was to come into this world.'
