John 12
1 JESUS then before the days of the passover came to Bethany, where the deceased Lazarus was, whom he had raised from the dead.
Jesus, therefore, six days before the passover, came unto Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from among the dead.
2 Therefore they made him a supper there; and Martha waited: but Lazarus was one of those who sat at table with him.
So they made for him a supper, there; and, Martha, was ministering, but, Lazarus, was one of them who were reclining with him.
3 Then Mary taking a pound of unadulterated balm of nard, very valuable, 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 said one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, who was preparing to betray him,
[But] Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, he that was about to deliver him up, saith—
5 Wherefore was not this aromatic ointment sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?
Why was, this perfume, not sold for three hundred denaries, and given unto the destitute?
6 Now he said this, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and kept the purse, and carried the money put therein.
Howbeit he said this, not that, for the destitute, he cared, but because, a thief, he was, and holding, the bag, used to carry away, what was cast therein.
7 Then said Jesus, Let her alone: for the day of my burial hath she reserved this.
Jesus, therefore, said—Let her alone, that, for the day of my burial, she may observe it;
8 For the poor ye have always with you; but me ye have not always.
For, the destitute, always, have ye with you, whereas, me, not always, have ye.
9 Then the whole multitude of the Jews knew that he was there: and they came not for the sake of Jesus only, but also that they might see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.
The great multitude of the Jews, therefore, got to know that he was, there, and came, not on account of Jesus only, but that, Lazarus also, they might see, whom he had raised from among the dead.
10 Then the chief priests consulted how they might kill Lazarus also;
But the High-priests took counsel, that Lazarus also, they might put to death;
11 because on his account many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.
because, many of the Jews, by reason of him, were withdrawing, and believing on Jesus.
12 On the morrow a great multitude who came to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

13 took branches of palm, and went out to meet him, and cried, Hosanna! blessed is the king of Israel, that cometh in the name of the Lord.

14 Then Jesus, having found a young ass, sat upon it; as it is written,
And Jesus, finding a young ass, took his seat thereon, just as it is written—
15 “Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on the foal of an ass.”
Do not fear, O daughter of Zion! Lo! thy king, cometh, sitting upon the colt of an ass.
16 These things indeed knew not his disciples at first: but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.
These things, his disciples noticed not, at the first; but, when Jesus was glorified, then, remembered they that, these things, had, for him, been written, —and that, these things, they had done unto him.
17 Then the multitude that was with him, when he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead, bore their testimony.
The multitude, therefore, that was with him when he called, Lazarus, out of the tomb, and raised him from among the dead, was bearing witness.
18 Therefore also the multitude met him, because they had heard that he had done this miracle.
On this account, the multitude met him also, because they heard that he had done, this sign.
19 Then said the Pharisees among themselves, Do ye not perceive that ye gain no advantage? behold, the world is gone after him.

20 Now there were certain Greeks among those who went up to worship at the feast:

21 these then came to Philip, who was of Bethsaida, of Galilee, and they asked him, saying, Sir, we wish to see Jesus.
These, therefore, came unto Philip, him who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, —and were requesting him, saying—Sir! We desire to see, Jesus.
22 Philip comes and speaks to Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.
Philip cometh, and telleth Andrew: Andrew and Philip come, and tell Jesus.
23 Then Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.
But, Jesus, answereth them, saying—The hour hath come, that the Son of Man should be glorified!
24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a grain of wheat falling on the earth undergo a deathlike change, it abideth single: but if it thus die, it beareth abundant produce.
Verily! Verily, I say unto you: Except, the kernel of wheat, shall fall into the ground, and die, it, alone, abideth; but, if it die, much fruit, it beareth.
25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world, shall preserve it to life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
He that loveth his life, loseth it; but, he that hateth his life, in this world, unto life age-abiding, shall guard it. (aiōnios g166)
26 If a man will be my servant, let him follow me; and where I am, there also shall my servant be: and if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.
If, with me, anyone be ministering, with me, let him be following; and, where, I, am, there, my minister also, shall be. If anyone, with me, be ministering, the Father, will honour him.
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.
Now, is my soul troubled, —and what can I say? Father! save me from this hour? But, on this account, came I unto this hour. Father, glorify thy name!
28 Father, glorify thy name! Then came a voice from heaven, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
There came, therefore, a voice out of heaven—I both have glorified it, and will glorify it again.
29 The multitude that stood by, and heard it, said that it was thunder: others said, An angel hath spoken to him.
[So], the multitude that was standing by, and heard it, were saying—It hath, thundered. Others, were saying—A messenger, unto him, hath spoken.
30 Jesus answered and said, This voice came not for my sake, but for your’s.
Jesus answered, and said—Not for my sake, hath this voice come, but, for your sake.
31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the ruler of this world be ejected out of it.
Now, is there, a judging, of this world, —Now, the ruler of this world, shall be cast out;
32 And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.
And, I, if I be lifted up out of the earth, will draw, all, unto myself.
33 And this he said, signifying by what death he should die.
But, this, he was saying, signifying, by what manner of death, he was about to die.
34 Then the multitude answered him, We have heard out of the law, that the Messiah abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, That the Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man? (aiōn g165)
The multitude, therefore, answered him—We, have heard, out of the law, that, the Christ, abideth evermore; How then dost, thou, say, —It behoveth the Son of Man to be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man? (aiōn g165)
35 Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest the darkness overtake you: he that walketh in darkness, knoweth not even whither he is going.
Jesus, therefore, said unto them—Yet a little while, the light, is, among you: Walk, while ye have, the light, lest, darkness, on you should lay hold; and, he that walketh in darkness, knoweth not whither he drifteth.
36 While ye have the light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of the light. These things spake Jesus, and going away, concealed himself from them.
While, the light, ye have, believe on the light, that, sons of light, ye may become. These things, spake Jesus, —and, departing, was hid from them.
37 Now, though he had done so many miracles before them, they believed not on him:
And, although such signs, as these, he had done before them, they were not believing on him: —
38 that the saying of Isaiah 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?”
that, the word of Isaiah the prophet, might be fulfilled, which said—Lord! who believed, what we have heard? And, the arm of the Lord, to whom, was it revealed?
39 For this reason they could not believe, because Isaiah had said again;
On this account, they could not believe, because, again, said Isaiah—
40 “He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their hearts; lest they should see with their eyes, and understand with the heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.”
He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; lest they should see with their eyes, and should understand with their heart, and should turn, —and I should heal them.
41 These things said Isaiah, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.
These things, said Isaiah, because he saw his glory, and spake concerning him.
42 However, notwithstanding, many even of the rulers believed on him; but on account of the Pharisees they did not make open profession, lest they should be put out of the synagogues:
Nevertheless, however, even from among the rulers, many believed on him; but, because of the Pharisees, they were not confessing him, lest, excommunicants from the synagogue, they should be made;
43 for they loved honour from men, more than honour from God.
for they loved the glory of men, more than the glory of God.
44 Then Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.
And, Jesus, cried aloud, 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.
And, he that vieweth me, vieweth him that sent me.
46 I am come a light into the world, that every one who believeth on me should not abide in darkness.
I, a light, into the world have come, that, no one who believeth on me, in darkness, should abide.
47 And if any man, hearing my words, believeth not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
And, if anyone shall hearken unto my sayings, and not guard them, I, am not judging him; for I came not that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world.
48 He that sets me at nought, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: even the word which I have spoken, the same shall judge him at the last day.
He that setteth me aside, and receiveth not my sayings, hath that which is to judge him: The word that I spake, that, will judge him, in the last day.
49 Because I have not spoken of myself; but the Farther who has sent me, he gave me commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
Because, I, out of myself, spake not, but, the Father who sent me, hath, himself, given me commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
50 And I know that his commandment is life eternal: therefore the things which I speak to you, just as the Father spake to me, so speak I. (aiōnios g166)
And I know that, his commandment, is, life age-abiding; The things, therefore, which I speak, just as the Father hath told me, so, I speak. (aiōnios g166)
