37 But although He had done so many psigns before them, they did not believe in Him, 38 that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke:

q“Lord, who has believed our report?

And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”

39 Therefore they could not believe, because Isaiah said again:

40 “He rhas blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts,

sLest they should see with their eyes,

Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,

So that I should heal them.”

41 tThese things Isaiah said 6when he saw His glory and spoke of Him.

42 Nevertheless even among the rulers many believed in Him, but ubecause of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue; 43 vfor they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

44 Then Jesus cried out and said, w“He who believes in Me, xbelieves not in Me ybut in Him who sent Me. 45 And zhe who sees Me sees Him who sent Me. 46 aI have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness. 47 And if anyone hears My words and does not 7believe, bI do not judge him; for cI did not come to judge the world but to save the world. 48 dHe who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him—ethe word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day. 49 For fI have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, gwhat I should say and what I should speak. 50 And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I hspeak.”
