Many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to comfort them about their brother [Lazarus, who had died]. When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him; but Mary sat at home. Martha said to Jesus: “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died. But even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you”. Jesus said to her: “Your brother will rise”. Martha said to him: “I know he will rise, in the resurrection on the last day”. Jesus told her: “I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and anyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?”.
She said to him: “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God,
the one who is coming into the world”.

( Jn 11:19-27 )
