John 12
12Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was who had been dead, whom He had raised from the dead.G3767G2424G1803G2250G4253G3957G2064G1519G963G3699G2976G2258G3588G2348G3739G1453G1537G34982There they made Him a supper; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with Him.G1563G3767G4160G846G1173G2532G3136G1247G1161G2976G2258G1520G4873G8463Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil.G3767G2983G3137G3046G3464G3487G4101G4186G218G4228G2424G2532G1591G846G4228G846G2359G1161G3614G4137G1537G3744G34644Then one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who would betray Him, said,G3767G3004G1520G1537G846G3101G2455G2469G4613G3588G3195G3860G8465"Why was this fragrant oil not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?"G1302G4097G3756G5124G3464G4097G5145G1220G2532G1325G44346This he said, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the money box; and he used to take what was put in it.G1161G5124G2036G3756G3754G846G3199G4012G4434G235G3754G2258G2812G2532G2192G1101G2532G941G9067But Jesus said, "Let her alone; she has kept this for the day of My burial.G3767G2036G2424G863G846G863G1519G2250G3450G1780G5083G8468"For the poor you have with you always, but Me you do not have always."G1063G4434G3842G2192G3326G1438G1161G1691G2192G3756G38429Now a great many of the Jews knew that He was there; and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might also see Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.G4183G3793G1537G2453G3767G1097G3754G2076G1563G2532G2064G3756G1223G2424G3440G235G2443G1492G2976G2532G3739G1453G1537G349810But the chief priests plotted to put Lazarus to death also,G1161G749G1011G2443G615G2976G2532G61511because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.G3754G1223G846G4183G2453G5217G2532G4100G1519G242412The next day a great multitude that had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,G1887G4183G3793G2064G1519G1859G191G3754G2424G2064G1519G241413took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him, and cried out: "Hosanna! 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!' The King of Israel!"G2983G902G5404G2532G1831G1519G5222G846G2532G2896G5614G2127G935G2474G2064G1722G3686G296214Then Jesus, when He had found a young donkey, sat on it; as it is written:G1161G2424G2147G3678G2523G1909G846G2531G2076G112515"Fear not, daughter of Zion; Behold, your King is coming, Sitting on a donkey's colt."G5399G3361G2364G4622G2400G4675G935G2064G2521G1909G3688G445416His disciples did not understand these things at first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about Him and that they had done these things to Him.G1161G5023G1097G3756G846G3101G4412G235G3753G2424G1392G5119G3415G3754G5023G2258G1125G1909G846G2532G4160G5023G84617Therefore the people, who were with Him when He called Lazarus out of his tomb and raised him from the dead, bore witness.G3793G3767G5607G3326G846G3753G5455G2976G1537G3419G2532G1453G846G1537G3498G314018For this reason the people also met Him, because they heard that He had done this sign.G5124G1223G3793G2532G5221G846G3754G191G846G4160G5124G459219The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, "You see that you are accomplishing nothing. Look, the world has gone after Him!"G5330G3767G2036G4314G1438G2334G3754G5623G3756G3762G2396G2889G565G3694G84620Now there were certain Greeks among those who came up to worship at the feast.G1161G2258G5100G1672G1537G305G2443G4352G1722G185921Then they came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus."G3778G4334G3767G5376G575G966G1056G2532G2065G846G3004G2962G2309G1492G242422Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn Andrew and Philip told Jesus.G5376G2064G2532G3004G406G2532G3825G406G2532G5376G3004G242423But Jesus answered them, saying, "The hour has come that the Son of Man should be glorified.G1161G2424G611G846G3004G5610G2064G2443G5207G444G139224"Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.G281G281G3004G5213G3362G2848G4621G4098G1519G1093G599G846G3306G3441G1161G1437G599G5342G4183G259025"He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.G5368G846G5590G622G846G2532G3404G846G5590G1722G5129G2889G5442G846G1519G2222G16626"If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also. If anyone serves Me, him My Father will honor.G1437G5100G1247G1698G190G1698G2532G3699G1473G1510G1563G2071G2532G1699G1249G2071G2532G1437G5100G1247G1698G846G5091G3962G509127"Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? 'Father, save Me from this hour'? But for this purpose I came to this hour.G3568G5015G3450G5590G5015G2532G5101G2036G3962G4982G3165G1537G5026G5610G235G5124G1223G2064G1519G5026G561028"Father, glorify Your name." Then a voice came from heaven, saying, "I have both glorified it and will glorify it again."G3962G1392G4675G3686G3767G2064G5456G1537G3772G1392G2532G1392G2532G1392G382529Therefore the people who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, "An angel has spoken to Him."G3793G3767G2476G2532G191G3004G1096G1027G243G3004G32G2980G84630Jesus answered and said, "This voice did not come because of Me, but for your sake.G2424G611G2532G2036G3778G5456G1096G3756G1223G1691G235G1223G5209G122331"Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out.G3568G2076G2920G5127G2889G3568G1544G758G5127G2889G1544G185432"And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself."G2504G1437G5312G1537G1093G1670G3956G4314G168333This He said, signifying by what death He would die.G1161G5124G3004G4591G4169G2288G3195G59934The people answered Him, "We have heard from the law that the Christ remains forever; and how can You say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up'? Who is this Son of Man?"G3793G611G846G2249G191G1537G3551G3754G5547G3306G1519G165G2532G4459G3004G4771G3754G5207G444G1163G5312G5101G2076G3778G5207G44435Then Jesus said to them, "A little while longer the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you; he who walks in darkness does not know where he is going.G3767G2424G2036G846G2089G3398G5550G2076G5457G3326G5216G4043G2193G2192G5457G3363G4653G2638G5209G2532G4043G1722G4653G1492G3756G4226G521736"While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light." These things Jesus spoke, and departed, and was hidden from them.G2193G2192G5457G4100G1519G5457G2443G1096G5207G5457G5023G2980G2424G565G2532G2928G575G84637But although He had done so many signs before them, they did not believe in Him,G1161G846G4160G5118G4592G1715G846G4100G3756G1519G84638that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: "Lord, who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?"G2443G3056G2268G4396G4137G3739G2036G2962G5101G4100G2257G189G2532G5101G1023G2962G60139Therefore they could not believe, because Isaiah said again:G5124G1223G1410G3756G4100G3754G2268G2036G382540"He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, Lest they should see with their eyes, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them."G5186G846G3788G2532G4456G846G2588G3363G1492G3363G1492G3788G2532G3539G2588G2532G1994G2532G2390G84641These things Isaiah said when he saw His glory and spoke of Him.G5023G2036G2268G3753G1492G846G1391G2532G2980G4012G84642Nevertheless even among the rulers many believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue;G3676G3305G1537G758G2532G4183G4100G1519G846G235G1223G5330G3670G3756G3670G3363G1096G65643for they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.G1063G25G1391G444G3123G2260G1391G231644Then Jesus cried out and said, "He who believes in Me, believes not in Me but in Him who sent Me.G1161G2424G2896G2532G2036G4100G1519G1691G4100G3756G1519G1691G235G1519G3992G316545"And he who sees Me sees Him who sent Me.G2532G2334G1691G2334G3992G316546"I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness.G1473G2064G5457G1519G2889G3363G3956G4100G1519G1691G3306G3363G3306G1722G465347"And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.G2532G3362G5100G191G3450G4487G2532G4100G3362G1473G2919G846G3756G1063G2064G3756G2443G2919G2889G235G2443G4982G288948"He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him—the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day.G114G1691G2532G2983G3361G3450G4487G2192G2919G846G3056G3739G2980G1565G2919G846G1722G2078G225049"For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak.G3754G1473G2980G3756G2980G1537G1683G235G3962G3992G3165G846G1325G3427G1785G5101G2036G2532G5101G298050"And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak."G2532G1492G3754G846G1785G2076G2222G166G3739G1473G2980G3767G2531G3962G2046G3427G3779G2980
