John 12:37–50

³⁷But though He had performed so many ¹signs before them, yet they were not believing in Him.

³⁸This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet which he spoke: “^aLord, who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”

³⁹For this reason they could not believe, for Isaiah said again,

⁴⁰“^aHe has blinded their eyes and He ^bhardened their heart, so that they would not see with their eyes and perceive with their heart, and ¹be converted and I heal them.”

⁴¹These things Isaiah said because ^ahe saw His glory, and ^bhe spoke of Him.

⁴²Nevertheless ^amany even of ^bthe rulers believed in Him, but ^cbecause of the Pharisees they were not confessing Him, for fear that they would be ^1dput out of the synagogue;

^43afor they loved the ¹approval of men rather than the approval of God.

⁴⁴And Jesus cried out and said, “^aHe who believes in Me, does not believe in Me but in Him who sent Me.

⁴⁵“^aHe who sees Me sees the One who sent Me.

⁴⁶“^aI have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness.

⁴⁷“If anyone hears My sayings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for ^aI did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.

⁴⁸“^aHe who rejects Me and does not receive My sayings, has one who judges him; ^bthe word I spoke is what will judge him at ^cthe last day.

⁴⁹“^aFor I did not speak ¹on My own initiative, but the Father Himself who sent Me ^bhas given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak.

⁵⁰“I know that ^aHis commandment is eternal life; therefore the things I speak, I speak ^bjust as the Father has told Me.”
