Bible Reading:     耶穌聽見拉撒路病了

11 有一個患病的人名叫拉撒路,住在伯大尼,就是馬利亞和她姐姐馬大的村莊。 馬利亞就是那用香膏抹主,又用頭髮擦他腳的,患病的拉撒路是她的兄弟。 她姐妹兩個就打發人去見耶穌,說:「主啊,你所愛的人病了。」 耶穌聽見就說:「這病不至於死,乃是為神的榮耀,叫神的兒子因此得榮耀。」 耶穌素來愛馬大和她妹子並拉撒路。 聽見拉撒路病了,就在所居之地仍住了兩天。 然後對門徒說:「我們再往猶太去吧。」 門徒說:「拉比,猶太人近來要拿石頭打你,你還往那裡去嗎?」 耶穌回答說:「白日不是有十二小時嗎?人在白日走路,就不致跌倒,因為看見這世上的光。 10 若在黑夜走路,就必跌倒,因為他沒有光。」 11 耶穌說了這話,隨後對他們說:「我們的朋友拉撒路睡了,我去叫醒他。」 12 門徒說:「主啊,他若睡了,就必好了。」 13 耶穌這話是指著他死說的,他們卻以為是說照常睡了。 14 耶穌就明明地告訴他們說:「拉撒路死了。 15 我沒有在那裡就歡喜,這是為你們的緣故,好叫你們相信。如今我們可以往他那裡去吧!」 16 多馬,又稱為低土馬,就對那同做門徒的說:「我們也去和他同死吧!」

復活在主

17 耶穌到了,就知道拉撒路在墳墓裡已經四天了。 18 伯大尼耶路撒冷不遠,約有六里路。 19 有好些猶太人來看馬大馬利亞,要為她們的兄弟安慰她們。 20 馬大聽見耶穌來了,就出去迎接他;馬利亞卻仍然坐在家裡。 21 馬大對耶穌說:「主啊,你若早在這裡,我兄弟必不死。 22 就是現在,我也知道,你無論向神求什麼,神也必賜給你。」 23 耶穌說:「你兄弟必然復活。」 24 馬大說:「我知道在末日復活的時候,他必復活。」 25 耶穌對她說:「復活在我,生命也在我。信我的人,雖然死了,也必復活; 26 凡活著信我的人必永遠不死。你信這話嗎?」 27 馬大說:「主啊,是的,我信你是基督,是神的兒子,就是那要臨到世界的。」 28 馬大說了這話,就回去暗暗地叫她妹子馬利亞,說:「夫子來了,叫你。」 29 馬利亞聽見了,就急忙起來,到耶穌那裡去。 30 那時耶穌還沒有進村子,仍在馬大迎接他的地方。 31 那些同馬利亞在家裡安慰她的猶太人,見她急忙起來出去,就跟著她,以為她要往墳墓那裡去哭。 32 馬利亞到了耶穌那裡,看見他,就俯伏在他腳前,說:「主啊,你若早在這裡,我兄弟必不死。」

耶穌哭了

33 耶穌看見她哭,並看見與她同來的猶太人也哭,就心裡悲嘆,又甚憂愁, 34 便說:「你們把他安放在哪裡?」他們回答說:「請主來看。」 35 耶穌哭了。 36 猶太人就說:「你看,他愛這人是何等懇切!」 37 其中有人說:「他既然開了瞎子的眼睛,豈不能叫這人不死嗎?」 38 耶穌又心裡悲嘆,來到墳墓前。那墳墓是個洞,有一塊石頭擋著。 39 耶穌說:「你們把石頭挪開!」那死人的姐姐馬大對他說:「主啊,他現在必是臭了,因為他死了已經四天了。」 40 耶穌說:「我不是對你說過,你若信,就必看見神的榮耀嗎?」

主叫拉撒路復活

41 他們就把石頭挪開。耶穌舉目望天,說:「父啊,我感謝你,因為你已經聽我。 42 我也知道你常聽我,但我說這話是為周圍站著的眾人,叫他們信是你差了我來。」 43 說了這話,就大聲呼叫說:「拉撒路出來!」 44 那死人就出來了,手腳裹著布,臉上包著手巾。耶穌對他們說:「解開,叫他走!」
