Verse 1 Then six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom he raised from the dead. Verse 2 So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him. Verse 3 Mary, therefore, took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment. Verse 4 Then Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said, Verse 5 "Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?" Verse 6 Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it. Verse 7 But Jesus said, "Leave her alone, that she may keep this for the day of my burial. Verse 8 For you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me." Verse 9 A large crowd therefore of the Judeans learned 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. Verse 10 But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also, Verse 11 because on account of him many of the Jewish people went away and believed in Jesus. Verse 12 On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, Verse 13 they took the branches of the palm trees, and went out to meet him, and were shouting, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!" Verse 14 Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written, Verse 15 "Do not be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey's colt." Verse 16 His 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. Verse 17 The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead, was testifying about it. Verse 18 For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign. Verse 19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, "See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him." Verse 20 Now there were certain Greeks among those that went up to worship at the feast. Verse 21 These, therefore, came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, "Sir, we want to see Jesus." Verse 22 Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus. Verse 23 Jesus answered them, "The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. Verse 24 Truly, truly, I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit. Verse 25 He who loves his life loses it. He who hates his life in this world will keep it to eternal life. Verse 26 If anyone serves me, let him follow me. Where I am, there will my servant also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him. Verse 27 "Now my soul is troubled. What shall I say? 'Father, save me from this time?' But for this cause I came to this time. Verse 28 Father, glorify your name!" Then there came a voice out of the sky, saying, "I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again." Verse 29 The multitude therefore, who stood by and heard it, said that it had thundered. Others said, "An angel has spoken to him." Verse 30 Jesus answered, "This voice hasn't come for my sake, but for your sakes. Verse 31 Now is the judgment of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out. Verse 32 And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw everyone to myself." Verse 33 But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die. Verse 34 The multitude answered him, "We have heard out of the law that the Messiah remains forever. How can you say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up?' Who is this Son of Man?" Verse 35 Jesus therefore said to them, "Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness does not overtake you. He who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. Verse 36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light." Jesus said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them. Verse 37 But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they did not believe in him, Verse 38 that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke, "Lord, who has believed our report? To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?" Verse 39 For this cause they could not believe, for Isaiah said again, Verse 40 "He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and perceive with their heart, and would turn, and I would heal them." Verse 41 Isaiah said these things when he saw his glory, and spoke of him. Verse 42 Nevertheless even of the rulers many believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess it, so that they would not be put out of the synagogue, Verse 43 for they loved men's praise more than God's praise. Verse 44 Jesus shouted out and said, "Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me. Verse 45 He who sees me sees him who sent me. Verse 46 I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness. Verse 47 If anyone listens to my sayings, and does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. Verse 48 He who rejects me, and does not receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke, the same will judge him in the last day. Verse 49 For I spoke not from myself, but the Father who sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. Verse 50 I know that his commandment is eternal life. The things therefore which I speak, even as the Father has said to me, so I speak."
