John 12
1. Then Jesus six days before the passover came * to Bethany,where Lazarus was * which had been dead * , whom he raised * from the dead.
2. There they made * him a supper; and Martha served * : but Lazarus was * one of them that sat at the table * with him.
3. Then took * Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly,and anointed * the feet of Jesus, and wiped * his feet with her hair: and the house was filled * with the odour of the ointment.
4. Then saith * one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should * betray * him,
5. Why was * not this ointment sold * for three hundred pence,and given * to the poor?
6. This he said * , not that he cared * for the poor; but because he was * a thief, and had * the bag, and bare * what was put therein * .
7. Then said * Jesus, Let * her alone * : against the day of my burying hath she kept * this.
8. For the poor always ye have * with you; but me ye have * not always.
9. Much people of the Jews therefore knew * that he was * there: and they came * not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see * Lazarus also, whom he had raised * from the dead.
10. But the chief priests consulted * that they might put * Lazarus also to death * ;
11. Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away * , and believed * on Jesus.
12. On the next day much people that were come * to the feast, when they heard * that Jesus was coming * to Jerusalem,
13. Took * branches of palm trees, and went forth * to meet him,and cried * , Hosanna: Blessed * is the King of Israel that cometh * in the name of the Lord.
14. And Jesus, when he had found * a young ass, sat * thereon; as it is * written * ,
15. Fear * not, daughter of Sion: behold * , thy King cometh * , sitting * on an ass's colt.
16. These things understood * not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified * , then remembered they * that these things were * written * of him, and that they had done * these things unto him.
17. The people therefore that was * with him when he called * Lazarus out of his grave, and raised * him from the dead, bare record * .
18. For this cause the people also met * him, for that they heard * that he had done * this miracle.
19. The Pharisees therefore said * among themselves, Perceive ye * how ye prevail * nothing? behold, the world is gone * after him.
20. And there were * certain Greeks among them that came up * to worship * at the feast:
21. The same came * therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired * him, saying * , Sir, we would * see * Jesus.
22. Philip cometh * and telleth * Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell * Jesus.
23. And Jesus answered * them,saying * , The hour is come * , that the Son of man should be glorified * .
24. Verily, verily, I say * unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall * into the ground and die * , it abideth * alone: but if it die * , it bringeth forth * much fruit.
25. He that loveth * his life shall lose * it; and he that hateth * his life in this world shall keep * it unto life eternal.
26. If any man serve * me, let him follow * me; and where I am * , there shall * also my servant be * : if any man serve * me, him will * my Father honour * .
27. Now is * my soul troubled * ; and what shall I say * ? Father, save * me from this hour: but for this cause came I * unto this hour.
28. Father, glorify * thy name.Then came there * a voice from heaven, saying, I have * both glorified * it, and will glorify * it again.
29. The people therefore, that stood by * , and heard * it, said * that it thundered * : others said * , An angel spake * to him.
30. Jesus answered * and said * , This voice came * not because of me, but for * your sakes.
31. Now is * the judgment of this world: now shall * the prince of this world be cast * out.
32. And I, if I be lifted up * from the earth, will draw * all men unto me.
33. This he said * , signifying * what death he should * die * .
34. The people answered * him, We have heard * out of the law that Christ abideth * for ever: and how sayest * thou, The Son of man must * be lifted up * ? who is * this Son of man?
35. Then Jesus said * unto them,Yet a little while is * the light with you. Walk * while ye have * the light, lest darkness come upon * you: for he that walketh * in darkness knoweth * not whither he goeth * .
36. While ye have * light, believe * in the light, that ye may be * the children of light. These things spake * Jesus, and departed * , and did hide himself * from them.
37. But though he had done * so many miracles before them, yet they believed * not on him:
38. That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled * , which he spake * , Lord, who hath believed * our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed * ?
39. Therefore they could * not believe * , because that Esaias said * again,
40. He hath blinded * their eyes, and hardened * their heart; that * they should * not see * with their eyes, nor understand * with their heart, and be converted * , and I should heal * them.
41. These things said * Esaias, when he saw * his glory, and spake * of him.
42. Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed * on him; but because of the Pharisees they did * not confess * him, lest they should be * put out of the synagogue:
43. For they loved * the praise of men more than the praise of God.
44. Jesus cried * and said * , He that believeth * on me, believeth * not on me,but on him that sent * me.
45. And he that seeth * me seeth * him that sent * me.
46. I am come * a light into the world, that * whosoever believeth * on me should * not abide * in darkness.
47. And if any man hear * my words, and believe * not,I judge * him not: for I came * not to judge * the world, but to save * the world.
48. He that rejecteth * me, and receiveth * not my words, hath * one that judgeth * him: the word that I have spoken * , the same shall judge * him in the last day.
49. For I have * not spoken * of myself; but the Father which sent * me, he gave * me a commandment, what I should say * , and what I should speak * .
50. And I know * that his commandment is * life everlasting: whatsoever I speak * therefore, even as the Father said * unto me, so I speak * .
