John 12:20–43

²⁰And there were certain ⁱGreeks among them ^kthat came up to worship ^lat the feast: ²¹The same came therefore to ^mPhilip, which was of ⁿBethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus. ²²Philip cometh and telleth ^mAndrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus. ²³And Jesus answered them, saying, ^oThe hour is come, that the Son of man ^dshould be glorified. ²⁴Verily, verily, I say unto you, ^pExcept a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. ^25qHe that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that ^rhateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. ²⁶If any man serve me, let him follow me; and ^swhere I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, ^thim will my Father honour. ^27uNow is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? ^wFather, save me from ^xthis hour: but ^yfor this cause came I unto ^xthis hour. ^28wFather, glorify thy name. ^zThen came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again. ²⁹The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him. ³⁰Jesus answered and said, ^aThis voice came not because of me, but for your sakes. ³¹Now is ^bthe judgment of this world: now shall ^cthe prince of this world be ^dcast out. ³²And I, if I be ^elifted up from the earth, ^fwill draw ^gall men unto me. ^33hThis he said, ⁱsignifying what death he should die. ³⁴The people answered him, We have heard out of ^jthe law ^kthat Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be ^elifted up? who is this Son of man? ³⁵Then Jesus said unto them, ^lYet a little while is ^mthe light ⁿwith you. ^oWalk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for ^phe that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth. ³⁶While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be ^qthe children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and ^rdid hide himself from them.

³⁷But though he had done so many ^smiracles before them, yet they believed not on him: ³⁸That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, ^twho hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed? ³⁹Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again, ^40uHe hath blinded their eyes, and ^xhardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. ⁴¹These things said Esaias, ^ywhen he ^zsaw his glory, and spake of him. ⁴²Nevertheless among ^athe chief rulers also ^bmany believed on him; but ^cbecause of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest ^dthey should be put out of the synagogue: ⁴³For they loved ^ethe praise of men more than the praise of God.
