﻿ John 12 KJ2000 - Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany,

4 Then said one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who would 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 bore what was put therein.
7 Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burial has she kept this. 8 For the poor always you have with you; but me you have not always.
9 Many 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.
14 And Jesus, when he had found a young donkey, sat thereon; as it is written, 15 Fear not, daughter of Zion: behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey's colt.
16 These things understood not his disciples at 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 were with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bore record. 18 For this cause the people also met him, for they heard that he had done this miracle.
19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Do you see how you can do nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.
22 Philip came and told Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip told 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 grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone: but if it dies, it brings forth much fruit. 25 He that loves his life shall lose it; and he that hates his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. 26 If any man serves me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serves me, him will my Father honor.
34 The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abides forever: and how say you, 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 you have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walks in darkness knows not where he goes. 36 While you have light, believe in the light, that you may be the children of light. These things spoke Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.
39 Therefore they could not believe, because Isaiah said again,
41 These things said Isaiah, when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
44 Jesus cried and said, He that believes on me, believes not on me, but on him that sent me. 45 And he that sees me sees him that sent me. 46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believes 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 rejects me, and receives not my words, has one that judges 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 who 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.
