W. P. "Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here my brother had not died."
"But I know that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee."
"Jesus saith unto her, thy brother shall rise again."
"Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day."
"Jesus saith unto her, I am the resurrection and the life, he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall ye live."
"And whosoever liveth, and believeth in me, shall never die."
