John 12:23–32

²³But Jesus answered them saying, The hour is come that the Son of man should be glorified. ²⁴Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except the grain of wheat falling into the ground die, it abides alone; but if it die, it bears much fruit. ²⁵He that loves his life shall lose it, and he that hates his life in this world shall keep it to life eternal. ²⁶If any one serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there also shall be my servant. And if any one serve me, him shall the Father honour.

²⁷Now is my soul troubled, and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But on account of this have I come to this hour. ²⁸Father, glorify thy name. There came therefore a voice out of heaven, I both have glorified and will glorify it again. ²⁹The crowd therefore, which stood there and heard it, said that it had thundered. Others said, An angel has spoken to him. ³⁰Jesus answered and said, Not on my account has this voice come, but on yours. ³¹Now is the judgment of this world; now shall the prince of this world be cast out: ³²and I, if I be lifted up out of the earth, will draw all to me.
